She’s his pawn…Savina's desperate. Tossed out onto the streets by her cruel stepmother, she has no choice but to sell her body. But the man who buys her . . . he knows exactly who she is.

But one taste of his new ward, and the prince is a man obsessed. He wants her. All of her. But it’s not just his plans for revenge that stand in his way. No, she's the one person he shouldn't be watching with hungry eyes, or devouring in the dark when his need for her grows unbearable. She might be his obsession, but to the rest of the world…She’s his stepdaughter.This Cinderella doesn't need a fairy godmother...Not when she has a wicked stepfather to fulfill her every desire.WARNING: This is a super spicy twisted fairytale with strong adult themes. There is a HEA, no cheating, no cliffhangers, and no love triangle—but there are spankings, an age-gap, light bondage, and an over-the-top alpha hero. If you’re not okay with some kink in your spice, this standalone romance is definitely not for you. ?????
