Ruby:
My name is Ruby Kent, and I'm homeless, a virgin, and terrified when I'm kidnapped by human traffickers and put up for sale on the auction block. I'm for sale to the highest bidder, and I have no idea what my future will be, but I know it's not going to be good.
I'm waiting for a chance to escape, and that opportunity finally comes after I'm bought and paid for.
Unfortunately, I have no idea that Jett Lawson has been sent to rescue me, not hurt me, and even after we're both injured during my desperate attempt to run away, he still wants to take care of me.
Problem is, I have no idea how to trust anyone, or let anybody help me. I've always been alone. It's safer that way.
Jett Lawson is a mystery to me, an enigma that just gets more complicated with every nice thing he does for me.
Is it possible for a woman like me to find happiness with a billionaire?
Probably not, but the more I get to know Jett, the harder is is to resist the lure of having a safe place to be, and a man like no other.
Jett is scarred just like me, but his wounds are all on the outside.
Mine are carved all over my soul.
Can two wounded people help each other heal, or will our profound differences tear us apart?
