Wow. Just...wow. This book was intense, so definitely pay attention to the content & trigger warnings, but if you're ok with them, you are in for a fast-paced, intense, yet amazing story!

Sable has been living in what can be called hell for her whole life. She's been used & abused from the moment she came into this world & has no hope of ever being able to leave & live her own life. That is until one of the worst nights of her life turns into her salvation, when her boss saves her & allows her to truly have a family & love as she always had hoped and dreamed.

Archer is a shrewd man, who just wants to trust & help his cute assistant. He's spent the past few years trying to protect her as much as he could, but when she does a stupid thing, he knows that he cannot abandon her. He's ready to be her savior… and her husband.

The trauma I mental health representation in this book was just amazing. Sable's story literally brought me to tears. With the addition of the LGBT rep in some of the major characters, and the growth you see in everyone…this book was just heartwrenching & yet also sweet at the same time. And let's not forget to mention those spicy scenes-the consensual ones that is (because why would the abuse scenes be hot-I was crying through them all!) They were hot, sweet, and incredible at the same time. I'll be honest, I came for the smut, but stayed for the amazing story of resilience & healing that I read!
