Love's Icy Awakening

Ten years ago Sawyer Nixon pulled Megan Gray from an abyss and forged her into his sharpest weapon and most compliant lover. He hid control behind jewels and warmth, convincing her that this was love and the only light in her life. Then his long-lost love returned. He handed Megan a packet of poison and ordered her to ensnare another man. The command rends a decade of intimacy: she is not a partner but a disposable tool. In an instant her faith fractures. Heartbroken and silent, she masks the ruin inside and, taught by him to surrender, accepts his final lesson.
