Shackled ( Bound Series: Book Two) COMPLETED
Cassandra Ramirez never believed in love at first sight-but undeniable, all-consuming chemistry? That was a different story. Taking a job as Ian Anderson's assistant was supposed to be a fresh start, but working for the ruthless, no-nonsense billionaire was more than just a challenge. He was disciplined, demanding, and built an empire on order and control. Love, to him, was a liability-marriage nothing more than a contract, a cage he refused to be locked in. But behind closed doors? He was a temptation she couldn't afford. Cass, on the other hand, was -quirky, clumsy, and reckless enough to believe in destiny. A tarot reader once told her she was meant for "something bigger and better" (and not just in the metaphorical sense). But fate had been anything but kind. A scam gone wrong, debts she couldn't pay, and threats that left her with no choice had driven her across the ocean with nothing but quick wit and sheer determination. She swore she wouldn't fall for Ian, especially after he made it clear that what was between them was purely physical. But in his world of control, will he be willing to risk losing it all for her? And in her reckless whirlwind, will she be able to control the one thing she never has-her own heart? Determined to prove she won't wait around for a man unwilling to fight for her, Cass flirts, dates, and reminds Ian that she is no one's possession. But the more she pulls away, the harder he holds on. Because in this dangerous game of power, passion, and pride-one of them will have to surrender. And neither of them knows how.Complete
