After being abducted by a sadistic sociopath, Reign O'Connor devises a plan to make her captor's son fall in love with her in order to aid in her escape.
Nineteen-year-old Reign O'Connor has begun to rebuild her life after her mother's death-thriving as a dedicated student at the San Francisco Art Institute, shining on stage in theatre productions, and basking in the warmth of her adoring boyfriend. But when she steps out of her dorm one innocent Sunday morning, she has no idea fate is about to upend everything she knows.
Reign is abducted by Dane Donavon, a sadistic collector of young women he calls his "dolls." Imprisoned in Dane's basement-forced to endure isolation in individual, chained rooms-Reign becomes one of many victims under his cruel control. Dane's twenty-year-old son, Avery, acts as both caretaker and captive; while Avery's chains are psychological, he remains powerless under his father's authority. Gentle by nature, Avery seeks to comfort the imprisoned girls, quietly insisting he is nothing like Dane.
Reign, determined to survive, sees Avery's vulnerability as her only hope and crafts a daring plan: make Avery fall in love with her and secure her escape. But as their bond grows, Reign must face the reality that darkness runs deeper than she ever imagined-and that the line between savior and captor may be more blurred than she's willing to believe.
