Ava Laurent doesn't break her rules. Men book her. Men leave. No one stays. Until Nathan Cole. He wasn't meant to matter. He wasn't meant to stay. But he does. Then someone starts watching. Getting closer. Knowing too much. Now the rules that kept her safe are cracking...and the line between control and desire is gone. Because this time… it's not just the client she has to fear. It's what she's willing to risk for him.
