The Cost of Control

Mia Calderone thought Haven was just a job.

In the city's most exclusive nightclub, Mia is accustomed to being looked at, but she has always kept her distance. That is until she catches the eye of Shawn McGregor. A man defined by lethal discipline and iron-clad control, Shawn exerts power that reaches far beyond elite social circles and deep into the city's ruthless criminal underground.

He is a man who lives by one rule: he never loses control. But the moment his gaze lands on Mia, his legendary composure begins to fray.

Drawn into a world of opulence, dangerous secrets, and raw, forbidden desire, Mia is caught between the safe future she planned and a man who demands everything. As professional boundaries shatter, she discovers the terrifying reality of his obsession: in Shawn's world, vulnerability is a fatal weakness, and he is determined to possess her completely.

Now, Mia must decide how much of her soul she is willing to sacrifice to survive his dark embrace.

In the underground, power is never free. Control has a price. And they are both about to pay the cost.
