When Jasmine loses a bet with stakes higher than she's willing to pay, she finds herself trapped in Jafar’s web...and loving every sinful second. ***Once upon a time, I was a sheltered princess. Now he owns me, body and soul. On the night Jafar took everything from her father, he offered Jasmine a devil's bargain: walk with her freedom and nothing else, or attempt to best him and regain her inheritance. In her arrogance, she played right into his hands, foolishly assuming she had a chance to come out on top. She was wrong. Every day is a battle, but when night comes, these two sworn enemies play out every fantasy she's never allowed herself to admit to having. She can't hide them from Jafar, though. He knows her—and the dark desires they share—far too well. He sees to her every need, no matter how carnal or extravagant. It's almost enough for her to be happy... But a gilded cage is still a prison, and before her time is through, Jasmine will do anything to obtain her freedom – even betray the man she's falling for. A classic fairy tale takes a turn for the decidedly wicked in the first Wicked Villains book, a spicy and dark contemporary romance about sexy modern villains getting their due.
