Nine hundred dollars seemed a very good emergency fee.
Chapter One
Mara
Anton Vedenin's name is inside a safe I have just spent an hour opening.
The book is bound in dark red cloth and lies on the bottom shelf, where Dmitri Saran told me there would be nothing worth keeping. I know that hard slant of black letters. Anton signed my father's birthday card last year; while everyone else wrote something embarrassing about turning fifty-three, he just put his name. Dad kept the card on the mantel for three months.
I shift my weight on the concrete floor. Nine hundred dollars seemed a very good emergency fee an hour ago.
Behind me, Dmitri's phone rings.
For adults 18+. His to Lock Away is dark romance: captivity, coercive control, a substantial age gap and power imbalance, threats with guns, torture, murder, dubious consent and explicit sex. Both leads are adults, twenty-six and forty-seven.
From S. R. Kade
I write dark romance about powerful older men, dangerous bargains, and women who walk in with their eyes open. Every book stands alone. Every book ends happily. None of them are gentle.
