Sometimes only a savage will do.

All my life I refused to be anything like my father, a man who instilled such fear in the women he slept with they hid their secret babies to protect us from him.

To say I hate the man is an understatement.

So when a sexy, mysterious woman stands on my doorstep claiming to be the new nanny for a child I didn't know existed... I don't handle things well.

Faced with walking the same path as my father, this woman may be the only person who can save me.

She should fear the monster lurking inside me, yet she doesn't care who I am, that I run a DeLuca empire, or that I'm the savage no one fucks with.

Instead, she tempts me beyond reason and puts me in my place without batting an eyelash. I suspect there's a hidden savage beneath her soulful brown eyes, one worthy enough to stand at my side.

And I'll stop at nothing to make Zakiya Chase mine.
