Fairy Tales: Where Domination is a Love Language: W

Where forgiveness comes with a collar.

Jules escaped one nightmare. She wasn't looking for another kind of heat.

After fleeing her abusive ex, she crashes at Joey's place-her dead brother's best friend, the man who's pulled her out of hell more times than she can count. He's safety. He's home. He's also six-foot-six of restrained hunger she's been ignoring for years.

Until the night she walks out of his shower naked and everything shifts.

Now she's working at Fairy Tales-the city's most exclusive voyeur club-as Noir Eden. Behind one-way glass, she's untouchable. Powerful. In control for the first time in her life. And Joey has no idea.

Until he finds out. Until he watches. Until jealousy and need collide and he takes her apart in the front seat of his truck like he's been holding back his whole life.

But when dominance bleeds into rage, Jules has to ask the question that nearly destroys them both: What's the difference between you and the man who broke me?

Joey's answer? He shows up at her club. Naked. Bound. On his knees. And offers her everything.

This is the reckoning. The healing. The kind of love that demands you face your demons and kneel for your salvation. It's friends-to-lovers with teeth. Hurt/comfort that doesn't skip the hurt. Power exchange that rewrites the rules.

Tropes: Friends-to-Lovers - Forced Proximity - Dom/Sub Discovery - Hurt/Comfort - He Falls First - Public Claiming - Emotional Groveling - Touch Her and Die
