Description
Oceans of Misery Book 1 in the Waves of Sorrow Series By E.L. Beth Paris Bridges never wanted the life her last name came with. The daughter of a powerful billionaire, Paris preferred quiet corners and modest living over champagne flutes and flashing cameras. So when her father forces her to attend her young stepmother's birthday celebration aboard a luxury yacht in his absence, Paris goes-but only out of obligation. From the moment they set sail, something feels off. And when the crew posing as caterers hijack the vessel, her worst instincts prove true. The mastermind behind the ambush? Aiden Young-a modern-day pirate with ice in his veins and no trace of mercy in his heart. Dragged onto a second ship with her terrified stepmother, Paris becomes a pawn in a calculated ransom scheme. Aiden has everything planned, every move executed with chilling precision. To him, Paris is nothing but leverage... yet something about her begins to test his control. Cold, ruthless, and unrelenting, Aiden makes Paris bend to his will-and she does, because resistance is not an option. But in the silence between orders, in the moments he least expects it, Paris begins to unravel something far more dangerous than fear. Obedient by force. Bound by circumstance. And caught in the middle of an ocean of misery. This is not a rescue story. This is the beginning of survival. Warning: This book contains material of sex and submission. It is recommended for mature readers.
