Though born as lowly chattel, the beautiful Nari has grown up free among the Baasta people until a band of conquerors shatters her world. The invader's leader is the muscular, magnificent Tarek, come to avenge his father's death—and to make Nari his slave. In Tarek's powerful hands, Nari fights the erotic training her captor has designed to make her his slave to desire. Teasing and tormenting, Tarek takes the bound Nari to the brink of climax again and again only to cruelly deny her release. But even when she is completely in his control, Nari vows to resist—until her hungry desires betray her. Despite his rage at the Baasta, Tarek cannot deny his growing passion for the defiant Nari. And now slave and captor are swept beyond the boundaries of ecstasy, where total submission is only the beginning of a dangerous and unstoppable love.
