Stay
Chelsea Camaron - 2015
It’s not sweet. It’s far from anything you would want to imagine. This is a story to leave you feeling dirty. Are you willing to stay the course all the way to the end? Nothing about us is normal. Nothing about us is natural. Can love ultimately be defined in such ways, truly? This is our story. He is a hitman, the very one who took my family the night that changed us both forever. Something in my eyes stopped him from killing me. Something in my eyes called out for him to take me. At ten, he captured me. At fifteen, he consumed me. And at eighteen, he owned me. Outsiders think he’s my father … That is so far from the truth. Our twisted desires fuel the darkness that lies deep inside us both. My innocence never existed, and he takes me as I am. *Due to the graphic nature of some scenes this book may be a trigger for some readers and is recommended for those over the age of 18. This is part one of a trilogy. This is a second edition update from the original stand-alone publication in 2015.
