A woman forever scarred... Emily was a captive in The Collection for five long years, enduring torment and anguish the likes of which no soul should have to bear. Now rescued, she's struggling to put the past behind her, to assimilate in a world where most will never know the evil often lingering beneath the superficial facade. Worse, she burns to avenge herself against the man who subjugated her again and again during her confinement-a man bent on getting her back. A man forever devoted... Kayne has wanted Emily for what seems a lifetime. Before they were ripped apart, theirs was an epic love, one Kayne knows is worth saving, rebuilding. Alongside her brother, Kayne searched for Emmy for years, and no amount of insistence on her part will push him away now that he's found her. Tender patience will help her heal-if her vendetta doesn't get her killed first. Satisfaction reaped from revenge is fleeting, but personal demons linger. Will Emily fight them? Or allow her flaws to overshadow her strengths, denying herself that which Kayne desperately wants to give?"
