Carter Jones is a man of steel and spurs, a mountain-sized alpha Dom used to absolute control on his Wyoming ranch. When he travels to a Caribbean hotspot, the last thing he expects is a "blonde bullet" to shove him off a dock and into the ocean. He doesn't just want an apology—he wants the sassy firebrand who put him there.
Jenna Mallory is drowning, but not in the sea. Between her father’s staggering medical bills and her sister’s tuition, she is one shift away from a total meltdown. She never meant to defy the six-foot-six "sasquatch" with the piercing hazel eyes, but his arrogance pushed her to the breaking point. Now, to save her livelihood, she must pay the price for her defiance: one week of absolute submission to the man she sent into the sea.
Carter is determined to tame the submissive who dared to challenge him. But as he peels back Jenna’s layers of fierce independence, he finds a woman who doesn't just need a Master—she needs a protector.
As their week of wickedly delicious desire blurs into a soul-shattering connection, a looming hurricane threatens to tear them apart. Will Jenna choose the safety of her duty, or will she surrender everything to the man who claimed her heart before he even knew her name?
