Chain And Choke
"I didn't cage her to keep her. I caged her because I knew what would happen if I let myself follow her out."
Kestrel Shaw is a courier for the Russian bratva, a ghost who drives dangerous roads and asks no questions. But when her brakes fail on a treacherous mountain pass during a brutal blizzard, she realizes she isn't just a driver anymore-she's a loose end.
She crawls from the wreckage expecting to die in the snow. Instead, she is found by Roarke Adler.
Huge, scarred, and lethal, the ex-Army Ranger has spent two years living in complete isolation, running from ghosts of his own. He pulls her from the cold, treats her wounds, and locks her inside his tiny, four-hundred-square-foot cabin. He takes her money. He takes her gun. And he refuses to let her leave.
As the lethal winter storm rages outside, Kestrel realizes her captor is playing a deadly game. Using a hidden satellite phone, Roarke is monitoring the encrypted radio communications of the hit squad sent to finish Kestrel off. What begins as a tense standoff of survival and psychological manipulation shifts into a dangerous, undeniable attraction.
With the roads clearing and a cleanup crew closing in, Kestrel and Roarke must turn their isolated prison into a fortress. But the most dangerous thing on the mountain isn't the men coming to kill them. It's the bond forging between two broken people who have finally found something worth fighting for.
