Bound by Fate

Victoria Scott is trying her best. She's pulling herself out of a hole dug by her own parents. She's leaving behind a harrowing past, breaking the cycle. Her father is a burden. Her mother.. that's a different story. In a small town like Catskill, New York, everyone knows about her and her wretched family. She has a plan- a plan to be better, to do better and to live somewhere better.

Unbeknownst to her, her fate would change when her drug dependent father makes a weighty decision. Low on his supply, he seeks help from one of the top drug moguls in the state. Without a penny to his name, he has one thing to pay with: his own daughter.

Victoria is forced to pay the price of her negligent father. She would soon discover the terrifying, ruthless world of the cartel. She would also meet the man who now owns her name.

Julian Hayes. His own past is a complicated, intricate web that has woven him into an arrogant, power-hungry, and cruel man. He cares for nothing other than his reputation and money. Julian is under the impression he's gaining another submissive, subordinate employee.

Victoria is neither of those things.

She plans to fight, and prove that her life is worth more. That she has a future away from the monster that is Julian.

But something ties them together. The thread between them is knotted, twisted, and buried deep. But it's there, and Victoria must be the one to sever it and get out. If that's possible.
