I want what I want, no question — even her.

Dashiell "Dash" Jordan runs the city of Shaker with an iron fist. Whatever he wants, he gets — except the woman he craves, who hasn't been available. He's waited long enough, and nothing will stop him, not even her bastard ex-husband or her con artist father. But once Dash sets his sights on her, will she allow herself to be owned, or will she walk away a second time?

Christy Lane never loved anyone the way she did Dash. She knew the danger of being with him, but she didn't care. Then Dash left her. She tried to put her life back together, but that life included marriage to a perpetual cheater, being thrown out of her father's church, and working in the only job she can get — stripping. Then Dash reappears. The memories of their life together rush back — the scenes, the passion and craving. She doesn't want to be a plaything, but he's offering her the world. Will she allow him to own her or end their second chance before she's hurt again?
