Sweet Seasons Series by Debbie Viguié, D.J. Reynolds

Most people think The Zone is an amusement park, but Candy Thompson knows it s really a slave labor camp.

Still, there are perks particularly the mysterious hunk in the Lone Ranger costume. Behind that mask are the most amazing eyes Candy has ever seen. Who is that masked man? But someone else is just as interested... moreMost people think The Zone is an amusement park, but Candy Thompson knows it s really a slave labor camp.
