One man haunts her every waking moment. Another stalks her nightmares. Both have the power to destroy her... but only one holds the key to her heart.

A week at her best friend's beach house is exactly what Shannon Wright needs to get her groove back.

At least, it would have been, if bossy, stuffy, way-too-sexy-for-anyone's-comfort Bryant Monroe hadn't shown up. Less than an hour into her vacation her bottom is already hot and stinging from his discipline, with the promise of more to come.

The worst part is, she can't wait for him to do it again.

Every rule he lays down, she happily breaks, and every touch, every kiss, every painful, humiliating punishment just makes her want him more.

But when the nightmares that have plagued her for months finally become too much to bear, she's faced with the ultimate dilemma. Allow Bryant to become the Daddy she swears she doesn't need...

Or let the pain of her past destroy their future.
