An unforgettable dark romance trilogy!
Two captive dancers. One cruel master. A single performance to determine whether they live or die.
Anya
I've served the four families since I was kidnapped three years ago.
I've accepted my fate, knowing that escape is impossible.
My villainous master abuses me, but I've learned to live this lonely life.
I've become complacent in my misery…then my master brings home another captive for me to train, and his presence changes everything.
Ezra
I was violently taken and brought to kneel at her feet.
She demands that I dance with her, but I refuse to recognize anyone as my master.
Yet when I see the horror of her existence with my own eyes, I know I have to save her.
I could never have expected her to break down my walls…. I could never have expected to form an unbreakable bond.… I could never have expected to fall in love.
