Rubies and Silk
Powerful, beautiful, and in control of every aspect of her life, Milly Blake's success comes from years of hard work, a drive to be better, and the absolute refusal to ever be humiliated again. Romance has always taken a backseat and, other than a longing to be reunited with the stranger who saved her, romantic relationships have always seemed too trivial for her tastes. Even Milly's kinkier pursuits and extracurriculars have been nothing more than another grasp at control to appease her need for dominance. Ayron Winters is the only person in Milly's life who sees her obsession with control as just another way of hiding the pain. After witnessing her break, he swore he'd return to her, but for Milly to finally have it all, she has to learn to let go. And for Ayron, that might mean pushing her away.
