Lily has never had a real home. Raised in an orphanage, she enters service at an early age and has managed to avoid lecherous employees and footmen to come into Lord Stockton's service as an unspoiled beauty ripe for the taking. Lord Stockton knows Lily is the one to give him what he wants. And his offer to give her the paternal love and guidance she missed growing up in exchange for her submission is an appealing offer. But is a young maid strong enough to enter into the deeply submissive state a man like Lord Stockton demands? To truly become his, Lily must submit every part of her body for his use, dress in immature clothing, and turn her back on adulthood forever. Even more trying, she must accept sexual pain, pleasure and punishment in doses she never thought possible to endure. Yet as Lord Stockton trains his young maid, he finds himself enduring his own vulnerability as he loses his heart to the woman he’s vowed to control.
