Joseph & lily: owned - willow winters

From USA Today best selling authors, Willow Winters and Lauren Landish, comes a sexy and forbidden series of standalone romances.

She thought this was a game.

She thought she could walk away.

She thought wrong.

Ive lived a cold, unforgiving life.

Ive seen things, Ive done things, that would break a man if they didnt kill him first.

With my past behind me, I have nothing.

No way to atone for my sins and nothing to lift me from the depths of despair.

And no one to give me the control that I so desperately desire.

Until I saw Lilly and then something inside my cold heart flickered.

Theres a sweet innocence about her that steals the breath from my lungs.

She brings my darkness to the surface, and whats more.

she craves it just as much as I do.

The danger is what lured her to me.

But she didnt realize how intense this would be when she signed that contract.

She thought it was all fantasy and make-believe.

Im not a knight in shining armor.

Im not a hero from a romance novel.

Im the villain.

And now she wants to leave? I wont allow it.

I own her.

And Im not letting her go.
