About from Goodreads.com

My Savior… Or My Ruin? 

One night, and my entire life went up in flames. All because of him. Jafar. As my world burned down around me, he offered me a choice. Walk away with nothing but my freedom… Or rise to his challenge and win my fortune back. 

I bargained. 

I lost. 

Now Jafar owns me, and even as my mind rails against his rules, my body loves the punishments he deals out when I break them. 

But a gilded cage is still a prison, I’ll do anything to obtain my freedom. 

Even betray the man I’m falling for.

Review

This book was horrible. I knew this book was smutty, so I knew what I was walking into. I just didn't expect it to be as boring and dull as it was. The characters were super annoying and made putting lemon juice and salt in my eyes sound more enjoyable than finishing this book. I will not be finishing this series especially since I couldn’t even make it halfway through this book. Since how much I disliked this book I will more than likely not check out any more books by this writer.

Enjoyed

Disliked

Quotes I love
