Judge Gerard Hobson believes Brimstone is his but the town refuses to bend to his will. Now someoneβs spreading rumors that he murdered a whore. Heβs lost control of his life. And although heβs never visited a brothel before, he finds himself in the Jeweled Ladies, making the acquaintance of Miss Sapphire Bleu in a desperate bid to hold onto his sanity.
As Sapphire, Sadie knows the judgeβs type. He longs to be in controlβand she longs to surrender it. But Gerard is afraid of hurting herβand more afraid of what he might become if he gives into his desires. Can Sadie show him thereβs nothing to fear from a little pain?
