In exchange for a million dollars, Ruslan Vukmir hopes to own, control and absorb the homeless little waif's ruthlessness. But what he never intended to do was be owned, controlled and absorbed in return by Edie Harmon's power. It's in the way she looks at him--focused, calculating--and the way she invades his quiet life with bits of her naive joy. It becomes more and more inevitable that he'll have to keep her, but humans aren't meant to be kept. Not against their will and never in exchange for something as invaluable as money.
