Description

A Publishers Weekly Top Ten Pick for Romance & Erotica

He scared me. He thrilled me. And after one touch, all I could think about was getting more...

Makayla never thought she'd set foot in an elite mixed martial arts club. But if anyone needs a medic on hand, it's these guys. Then again, at her first sight of the club's owner, she's the one feeling breathless.

The man they call Torment is all sleek muscle and restrained power. Whether it's in the ring or in the bedroom, he knows exactly when a soft touch is required and when to launch a full-on assault. He always knows just how far he can push. And he's about to tempt Makayla in ways she never imagined...

Praise for Sarah Castille's Redemption series:

"Smart, sharp, sizzling and deliciously sexy."—Alison Kent, bestselling author of Unbreakable
