Encore Tmonique Stephens

Ridley Cross will stop at nothing to break her family curse-including enslaving an innocent man, EJ Nicolis. He doesn't deserve it, but regardless of the consequences, she'll use him as a means to an end. However, the more time she spends with EJ, the line between survival and passion blurs. Can she trust the man she has shamelessly used? Trapped in a prison of his own flesh and bones, EJ Nicolis will kill the one who placed him there. No matter how much he hungers for her, he will resist her amethyst eyes, her pouty lips, and fiery soul when he wraps his hands around her slender, graceful neck and... With evil at every turn, the Descendants of Ra are out to rescue their brother EJ-and make her pay-Ridley can't afford to fall in love. The stakes are higher than her desires. Greater than her needs. More important than his life. Or hers.
