In the underworld of millionaires and secrets buried in blood and pleasure, Elora White is more than a femme fatale - she is the judge, the executioner, and temptation incarnate. Ruling an empire of masks and sin, she has never allowed love to trespass her domain... until Damon Hart, an undercover detective, enters her world seeking justice. But the deeper he digs, the tighter her velvet chains wrap - where pleasure brings pain and truth becomes a sentence of desire.
