The Warden's Daughter

Callie grew up knowing her father never wanted her, but when her mother suddenly passed away, she had no choice but to go and live with him. Now under her father’s roof, she understands why her mother didn’t fight for their marriage. Why her mother was scared of men. Her father’s a warden at a maximum-security prison. He’s controlling. He watches her every move. His anger issues are off the charts. Every mistake comes with a punishment. Each one, harsher than the last. She finds herself wondering if the men in his prison have more freedom than she does. Callie makes a plan with the help of her best friend. Her ticket is booked. She’s all packed. Ready to go. Letting herself believe she is finally getting away from her father. Only the night before she’s set to leave, her father makes his move. He has plans for Callie, and letting her leave, isn’t part of them. She always knew he was cruel. She just hadn’t realized how truly evil he was until he dragged her into his own personal hell. That hell… being the prison he runs. Trapped in a place filled with dangerous men, all controlled by her father, Callie finds herself feeling safe in the arms of the last person she expected. Anders. Her best friend’s father. An inmate. Said to be one of the six most dangerous men there. She knows she should be scared. But one look from him and he makes her feel safer than she ever has before. Anders isn’t just an inmate like Callie thinks. He’s there for a reason. A secret one. It doesn’t take long to see; he’ll do whatever it takes to keep her safe. No matter the cost.
