He was created from the darkness—the monsters of his past made certain of this.
He is cold, he is empty, and he is not sorry for it.
He will take what he wants, and he will stop at nothing to make her his.
Because that is what Max Locke does: he sees, he takes, and he will not let go.
Locke is book 1 of a duet and is not for the faint of heart. This book is a captive romance. Triggers include: violence, dubious consent, a few brief mentions of child abuse and trafficking.
