As his hand drifted up my neck, he felt like a beast. "You saved my life Juliette," he said. "And now I am bound to you. It is a bond that cannot be broken until my debt is repaid. Until I fulfill your deepest desires, I cannot, and I will not, let you go.”
When Juliette pulls a warrior back from the edge of death, she never expects the price to be a bond that binds her to him. Fierce, unyielding, and impossible to ignore, he swears he won’t release her until her heart’s desire is fulfilled. But what exactly does she crave?

Juliette must decide whether the bond is her cage or her key… and just how far she’s willing to let him go to give her everything she secretly longs for.
