From USA Today & Wall Street Journal best-selling author Emma Slate comes a billionaire standalone romance. Hadrian Rhys is every woman’s dream. The Scottish billionaire is handsome and shockingly masculine. He looks like a modern Viking in a suit. At first glance, he’s perfect… But something dark lurks beneath the surface of his manufactured facade. And it entices me in spite of my better judgement. So, when he offers me a contract to spend six months with him on his private island, I say yes. Night after night in his bed, Hadrian makes me unravel. He plays my body like he owns it.

But maybe—just maybe—Hadrian Rhys is powerful enough to save us both from what’s coming…

"It is difficult to decide which is the more impressive: the authority and control with which Mr. Bendix writes of the traditions, the institutions, and the technological and social developments of cultures as diverse as the British, French, German, Russian, and Japanese, or the skill with which he weaves his separate stories into a persuasive scenario of the modern revolution.
