She's the plaything of the big, bad wolf. But the man who finds her can't save either of them. Caleb Forrester's life is in freefall, everything unraveling-his marriage ending, his private investigation business not paying the bills, his mortgages forfeit. Maybe he becomes obsessed with this case, this missing nineteen-year-old girl named Sienna, because it's one thing he's always been good at, finding people. He finds her. She is being held captive by a wolf of a man, Lyall Biggs. He has a twisted psyche, and he keeps women like toys. He uses them and molds them to his will, his amusement, his pleasure. Caleb comes to rescue Sienna, but he doesn't manage it. Instead, they end up trapped there together. Lyall says he's never had a male toy before, but he thinks he might be curious. Verge notes: This dark romance is for fans of books like Still Beating or Irreparable Damage, a story about love forged in trauma. Both the mmc and fmc are assaulted in this book, and both are forced to do acts to each other against their own will. This is a very dark book. Discretion is advised. See the author's note inside the book for a list of triggers.
