Gemini Michaels doesn't believe in fairytales. Not the Disney kind anyway. More like Grimm's fairytales. Her father Jacob Michaels is a powerful man whose reach goes as high in government as his ambition allows. He got there by peddling in darkest of vices. Sexual slavery and prostitution. Going so far as to use his own daughter as product and bait. She'd escaped and been tracked down three times. Drugged and facing inevitable death she is thrown over the side of a bridge.

Her father Jacob Michaels is a powerful man whose reach goes as high in government as his ambition allows. He got there by peddling in darkest of vices. Sexual slavery and prostitution. Going so far as to use his own daughter as product and bait. She'd escaped and been tracked down three times. Drugged and facing inevitable death she is thrown over the side of a bridge.
Aidan Wells is a rogue agent of the British government. Shot by Jacob left for dead sixteen years ago he was aided by Gemini who was only ten years old. Somehow surviving he is haunted by the abused girl who aided him. Driven to find her, he finally tracks her down, only to have to brave the cold Ohio River waters in a daring rescue to save her. Spiriting her away from a hospital filled with the enemy they go on the run.
Jacob Michaels is not a man to make angry. And when he discovers it's the man who got away who intervened on behalf of his daughter he is angered beyond measure. He sends man after man, calling in favor after favor to reel them in. But the battle lines are clearly drawn. With Aidan and Gemini determined to expose Jacob and bring down his ring, and Jacob to end their pursuit permanently a showdown is evitable.
Will Gemini finally break her father's hold on her? Or will Jacob close the window permanently to her escape.
