I've spent five years in hell, chained up by a man who was supposed to love me.

My family thinks I'm dead. I would be, if it weren't for the little boy born into a nightmare. I breathe only for him.

Until Zane walks back into my life.

My brother-in-law. The teenager I once knew, now all grown-up.

He's a prisoner, just as I am.

I don't trust him—but I have no one else.

Night by night, hidden away in the darkness, he comes to me, whispering hope in my ear.

Setting my body alight with his touch.

If his brother knew, he'd kill us both.

But neither of us can stop. The forbidden attraction turning into a secret romance we can't give up.

Until there's only one way out.

Escape.

A caged bird needs to be set free.
