Tortured soul

the long version

Emily Donovan didn't know love, she didn't know gentle and her future wasn't hers to own. Because he owned her. There is only so much one soul can take before it is broken beyond repair and she had reached that milestone long ago. Braiden Montgomery had secrets, secrets that would see a special place in Hell reserved just for him. For a man with skills like Braiden, keeping Emily safe would be a piece of cake. Bringing her frozen heart back to life might just prove the impossible.
