Never Let Go

The monster hiding under the bed is not always the enemy.

Benjamin
Broken. Feral. Dangerous.

Like a snake lying in wait, I watch every move the little mouse makes. Her whimpers and pleas for freedom fall on deaf ears and a wicked grin—until the little mouse becomes my savior instead of my victim.

Mackenzie forces me to confront the past I've buried deep within my soulless self, awakening feelings I never thought I possessed. I need to protect her from my partner.

Will I be able to cut ties with someone I've known so long for this new ray of light? Will Mackenzie be able to accept me for who I am when this is over?

Mackenzie
Hurt. Confused. Helpless.

Falling for my captor is not what I expect when I am brought into the viper's nest. What's more, I realize he has a soft spot for me. Held against my will, afraid for my life and virtue, I struggle. Not just for freedom, but for my sanity. His harshest touch sets my soul ablaze. What is wrong with me?

Benjamin is more than the monster under the bed. He creeps through the shadows with a vile heart. When his partner in crime holds my life in her hands, Benjamin shows me he is more than he appears to be.

Is it possible to save the irredeemable? Can I save myself and escape captivity? Will I be able to recognize myself once I do?
