SAMPLE ONLY! EXCLUSIVELY ON GALATEA . After a stage accident forcing her to retire early, the once-rising ballerina, Mia Harnett, shunned herself into isolation from society. The loss took a toll on her and her family. When her mother asked her sister, Leanna Stanton, to take Mia away on her yearly visit to one of her vacation homes, Leanna embraced the idea with one condition. Mia had to agree willingly. Eventually, Mia decided to go. Leanna and she were off to live for the next three months on a small cabin at a farm and fishing village island in Scotland. Mia thought the vast empty field, the smell of the rust ocean breeze, will be therapeutic in helping her recover. Yet before Mia settled on her new life, one part of her past came knocking back like a storm. It was then she met an unlikely ally, grandson of her aunt's friend, Richard McKenzie, who manages a diner and bar, and his family's farm. He warned Mia about a fancy man looking for her in town. Mia had to trust him since there was no one - besides her aunt, who she didn't want to be involved - who saw a glimpse of her circumstance. But Richard didn't readily offer his help unless she trusted him back with her story. A past involving an influential man from an old aristocrat family who, to her surprise, owned a castle on the island. He bewitched her with his charm and words, caging her into submission until she got away. She started to question whether her trip on the island and his reappearance wasn't a coincidence. She feared he'll never let her go once she's caught under his ravenous gaze. Will Mia be able to free herself, or will she forever be in his submission? #Ravenous #DramaThriller
