hey grew up on this island and are in charge of protecting its various interests. They're used to being in control of everything here. Including the surf.

I've been kidnapped by a dangerous man, and am being used as collateral while my father comes up with the funds to pay off his debt (sadly not the worst thing he's ever done although it's up there), and if he doesn't come up with the cash soon I'll be auctioned off to the highest bidder. In the meantime, these four gorgeous men are tasked with keeping me in their control and protecting me, and they take their role very seriously.

But they're not the only people to be concerned about. I'm tough in my own way. I can tell that they want all of me, to take me over like they do everything else. But five can play this game, and I'm not good at losing.

**Sea of Snakes is a full-length dark new adult romance containing themes of violence, love-hate and enemies-to-lovers.
