I AM HIS PRIZE AND HIS PRISONER. I thought I could outrun the law. I thought I could disappear into the Wyoming mountains. Then Zane Nelson found me. He is a mountain of a man with eyes like cold steel. His hands know exactly how to break my defiance. When I tried to run, he did not just catch me. He put me over his knee and taught me the price of my rebellion. Every strike of his palm burned with a promise of order I never knew I needed. The trail to Cody is paved with blood. A cruel hunter named Gentry Shelton is on our heels. He wants the gold on my head and the fire in my blood. My only hope is the man who holds me in shackles. Zane is my captor, but he is also my shield. He treats me like a wild thing that needs taming. His touch in the dark of the Stone Canyons tells a story of primal possession. In the freezing silence of a mountain cave, my walls finally crumbled. I stopped fighting the man and started fighting the hunger he woke inside me. He claimed me under the midnight sky. He replaced my iron chains with a bond I never want to break. He is no longer just a bounty hunter. He is my master and my protector. He will kill anyone who tries to take me from him. I belong to the man who conquered my soul in the dirt and the dust.
