Catherine Alderidge has been kept locked away her whole life. Her parents treat her like a treasure that cannot be obtained. Each time a man tries to court her, her father does something to scare them off and she's left feeling like something is wrong with her. Even in her adulthood, Catherine has had one hell of a time trying to find a man with a strong enough willpower to stand up to her father. It isn't until she meets Clarke Mariucci that she sees the light at the end of the romantic tunnel. He's dangerous, sexy, and will do whatever it takes to make her his. She quickly discovers that he is the one person that she can't charm into doing what she wants. Not like every other boy in her life, he's not a little pup ? he's a damned wolf and she's the sheep.
