MARY is the perfect tool to use against the man who took his sister, Lily. What better way to exact retribution from Governor Hagen and force him to bring Lily back, than to steal his own daughter and threaten to sell her as a sex slave, too? But, even the best laid plans don’t always go smoothly. Slade ends up falling for his captive, and is faced with a decision that might just cause him to lose the one thing he doesn’t want to let go.
SLADE is every bit the animal he portrays. Dominant, dark, unbending, and possessive—her own personal predator. Mary can’t help but be drawn to the soul deep darkness in him. It calls to her like nothing she’s ever felt before.
When her father bends to Slade’s will and releases Lily, will Mary be allowed to walk away and follow her father's plans to marry another, or will Slade make her a captive to the dark…forever?

I really enjoyed this book.
Just like anyone, you'd do what you can to save your family. That is exactly what Slade does for his own sister. He kidnaps Mary to save her.
Only he wasn't meant to fall in love with her....
I love both characters in the novel and couldn't help but feel bad towards both of them. Neither have had a very good upbringing.
Mary has issues and in this novel we learn it is all down to her father. She's so out of the loop with what her family was into that it was upsetting. I felt really bad for her being caught in the middle of a war zone.
Then we have Slade. He's been looking for a way to get his sister back and he finally has his prayers answered when he takes Mary. Only, he didn't expect to want her. He wanted to hurt her father after everything they've done to him and his sister.
The story has some seriously dark scenes, which I wouldn't recommend to sensitive readers.
I gave the novel a 3* as the only negative I could get from the book was I wish the ending gave us more. I had so many questions that went unanswered and it kind of ruined the ending for me.
