Ames Brisees — Ella Shawn

He's looking for control. She's looking for freedom. What they find are the broken pieces of each other.Since Jonathan Ellis left his hometown at the age of 17, he was considered an adult by the courts. He had wealth, intelligence, looks, and enough sexual experience to satisfy any woman he chose. The life he walked away from was riddled with violence, sexual deviancy, and death. He went to college looking for normalcy, but there's no escaping the white heat of depravity flowing through his veins… not even for her.Vivian Bruno knows who she is and what she wants. Although she is shy, and her sexual experiences have all been forced, she is confident she can have a normal relationship. She is alone in the world and does not want to cede her new-found control for any reason, but Jonathan isn't just any reason. What he makes her feel just may be worth her willing submission. Jonathan and Vivian are a match made in the underbelly of southern traditions, family secrets, and swallowed insecurities and hurts. Will they somehow see a way to take all the hurt and broken pieces to build something stronger than their pain? Or will he break her in the most destructive way imaginable?
