For twenty years, Lucien Ashfall has been caged by the very men who profit from his blood.
Heโs dangerous, uncontrollable, and deadly.
Heโs also the only one carrying his bloodline and they need another.
Every six months, thirty girls are sent into his prison and tasked with one goal: Make him create an heir by any means necessary.
Until Rook Snowdon is thrown into Cinderkeep by mistake.
She isnโt a seductress.
In fact, she only has three goals in life:
One, hide her true identity for as long as possible.
Two, nap and self-medicate with wine.
Three (and most problematic) ignore the fact that stress is slowly killing her.
Lucien only has one goal: escape and burn everything to the ground.
Unfortunately, everyone has their secrets and these two have many.
They just donโt know it yet.
Because she might be the key to getting him free.
But if he gets out, itโs not the world that will burn.
Itโs him.

On a career level, Pepper currently has close to 40 books released in nine languages. Sheโs hit best-seller lists (USA Today, New York Times, and Wall Street Journal) almost 40 times. She dabbles in multiple genres, ranging from Dark Romance to Coming of Age.
On a personal level, Pepper lives on a farm with two minis, four horses, countless birds and wildlife, and a precious little ball of fluff called Mo. Her little house-rabbit sits at her feet while writing all the words, and always seems to know when sheโs writing a naughty scene. Heโs her muse and the main reason why a rabbit is on her author logo.
