Tormented — Alison Aimes

“On your knees.”
 
Captured, collared, and caged is the last place ice-cold Council assassin Jade Lakotesh wants to be, but when she discovers she's sharing her prison with her target, a ripped barbarian who hates the Council, she accepts death will be inevitable. 

Submitting to her cellmate's demands for immediate obedience, Jade resolves to survive long enough to fulfill her final mission. She doesn't expect to come to crave Ryker's rough, raw commands. Or that she'll grow to see him as more than the enemy.
 
But in the wake of her escape, Ryker gives chase, refusing to let her go. And Jade must decide whether to complete her mission and kill the man who makes her feel too much, or let him catch her for keeps. 
 
The third book in the Condemned Series, Tormented is a standalone, action-packed, sexy sci-fi, enemies-to-lovers romance with a HEA and a dirty-talking alpha who meets his match where he least expects.
