He built an empire just to own her. She found freedom in his cage.
Ten years ago, James Gatz left for war with a vow to Dahlia Fay: You are mine. Forever. When the Army reported his death, Dahlia moved on, choosing the cold security John Buchanan and his wealth offered, believing her love lost forever. Not dead, but merely lost for a time, James returned to a world where Dahlia was not his to claim, forcing him to become more than he was. To become the man she deserved.
James Gatz became James Gatsby, a ruthless criminal-king whose glittering, illicit fortune was built for one reason and one reason alone. To reclaim Dahlia. His obsession was absolute, his money unmatched, and his trophy finally within his grasp.
He doesn't court Dahlia. He takes her—a forced claim against the cold marble of his mansion, fueled by a decade of desperate, possessive hunger. John’s cruelty made her a victim. James’s absolute control, born of dark devotion, made her a queen, awakening a shocking desire within Dahlia for his darkest demands.
James will burn the world down to keep Dahlia, but the real fire is the one she feels inside. Dahlia must decide if she can forfeit her life—and her soul—to the man who clawed his way back from the grave just to chain her to his throne.
