Pretty Savage - Book 1
He only ever wanted one thing. To be hers.
Reth Hale is a killer—hollowed out and leashed by an evil far worse than his own. He was never meant to want. Never meant to feel.
Until Sophia Sinclair made the nothing inside him want to be something.
For years, he watches her from the shadows, breathing her air in rooms she doesn’t know he’s standing in. While she unknowingly scatters pieces of herself, he collects every one—because only he understands their worth.
But when the family who owns him decides Sophia is the perfect way to tighten his leash…Reth makes a choice.
He takes her.
Now Sophia’s locked inside a house pulled straight from her dreams—prisoner to a masked killer who bakes her favorite pastries at midnight, turns up the heat when she shivers, and leaves heart-shaped candy like it means something.
Like she means something.
Sophia tells herself he’s a monster. But she has spent years studying broken people, and Reth Hale doesn’t feel like evil. He feels like damage. And that might be worse.
She has dedicated her life to fixing wounded things, and he might just be the most broken of all…
…or the fracture that finally breaks her.
