Eleven days after her father's death, Eve Sterling learns what he left her: seven figures of debt owed to men who don't send statements, and a dying mother in a room she can't afford.
Then one creditor buys every scrap of it. Damian Cross, the most dangerous money in Manhattan, summons her to his tower and names his price in one word. Her. One year. His floor, his rules, no other men, and at the end the slate wiped clean.
She slaps him. He looks delighted.
Eve goes home resolved to find another door. Instead a crate arrives holding the grandmother's cello she secretly sold eighteen months ago, and her mother's care is paid, anonymously, for life. The gun is off the table before she has decided anything. A man who could have forced her has chosen to make her walk in on her own.
So she does, pen pressed into his contract, and gives him a rule of her own: he doesn't get to be the monster and the man who bought her cello back.
But he knows things she never told him. He says eight years like a sum he's carrying. He didn't buy this debt to collect.
