Pride and Audacity
Story is complete - Read online now.

Excerpt:

What would it cost him to own such a woman? Tempering her aggressive nature would require a great deal of restraint. It would cost him much to strip away her layers of resistance. She would not yield easily. Some part of him wanted not to subjugate her spirit, but to hold the reins.

Inspired by @AE_Sotelo and nabbed from @geekaren: Introduce yourself using five books to get to know you.

In no particular order -
* The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern
* Gideon the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir
* A Psalm for the Wild-Built by Becky Chambers
* The Martian by Andy Weir
* To Reign in Hell by Steven Brust

(That was hard to narrow down!)
