Tinsley Rosewood was a nobody - struggling with drug addiction and a troubling childhood, she felt as if she couldn't escape the life her mother had laid out for her. She wasn't sure she wanted to.
She needed to escape the reality of her life. Tinsley would accomplish this when she shoved just enough drugs up her nose and down her throat to forget, but it wasn't enough. She needed to feel something else.
Soon, Tinsley met Oskar - a man who wore gloves in the middle of summer, not a single hair out of place. His gaze was so icy, it burned holes in her skin, finally making her feel seen.
He wanted her. And he would have her.
