Chelsea When I was little, my favorite fairy tale was “Beauty and the Beast.” I dreamed of sacrificing myself for my father and boldly going to the enchanted castle to live with the beast. I imagined how I would kiss him tenderly and the beast would turn into a handsome prince. Now that I have matured, it seems that in some strange way I have wandered into the enchanted mansion of the beast. He is stern and cruel and no tender kiss will turn him into a fairy-tale prince, but the strange thing is that I don’t want to see his transformation. Every atom in me, from my fingertips to my hair, vibrates, pulsates and calls for the beast to take me... again and again.   Thorne Soon the whole world will know my name... but first I need to solve a small problem regarding the manipulations and lies of a little thief. When I catch her, bright, intriguing eyes try their best to work their magic on me. But someone should have told Chelsea Appleby ahead of time that no one dared steal from Thorn Blackmore. She promised to pay me back. She is sorry and apologetic, but she needs more time. The problem is, I don't need money from her. I want to punish her - to possess and own every inch of her beautiful body. I want to leave my mark on her soft English skin. Forever.
