About This Book

Lauren wants a man willing to stand by her. She also wants him willing to kneel at her feet. Then she meets Josh, the caretaker at an island retreat. He’s protective and strong, but the gift of his natural submission has been damaged by a past act of cruelty.

To win his trust, she needs to uncover the secrets behind his stormy eyes. But to do that, she has to tear down his defenses and make him give her everything.
