I never thought I'd auction my v-card to survive. Now, I'm snowed in with three mountain men who want more than my innocence. The underground auction was my escape plan. Instead, it brought me face-to-face with three rugged brothers whose eyes see right through me and whose hands leave me trembling. Two months in their remote cabin was meant to be simple. Fulfill their terms, take the money, and start over. But I didn't expect them. Lucas is dark and intense, a leader whose control leaves me breathless—and wanting more.
