From their first meeting, Dmitry Balakin knew he wanted Alix Smith as his own. She was not like any other woman he'd met before. She was kind, sweet, caring, and she had no idea she had spoken to the boss of the Balakin Bratva. When her husband's debt is called in, the man has no qualms selling Alix to save his life.

Alix hates her husband. It was a marriage of pity. She adored his parents and only agreed to the marriage for them. It was no love match, nor a true marriage. Becoming Dmitry's property, she is even more surprised to discover he has a five year old daughter. That is her role. She is the nanny to his little girl.

At first, she tried to ignore the attraction she felt toward this monster of a man. He doesn't smile, ever. He's cold, aloof, and the only real emotion she sees is when he is with his daughter. Dmitry has helped her though. She finally has the divorce she had been wanting for a long time. She is now free.

Alix is his. Dmitry is determined to have her. This is not a love match. It's sex. It is fucking. Nothing more. He wants to get Alix pregnant. He doesn't want her to have a reason to walk away. She is his and he doesn't share his toys.

Alix is falling for him. The first man she has ever truly loved. But he doesn't trust her. He has told her he trusts no one. People have a price, and one day she will soon. But Alix doesn't have a price. She loves Dmitry and would die trying to save him. Will it be too late to tell him the truth, or will she die when one of his enemies tried to take his place?
