When she walked into my office, she took my breath away; she was the definition of beauty. Flowing red hair and eyes the colour of emeralds. I had to make her mine. The talented designer was hiding something though I could see the fear in her eyes. When her past catches up with her, and I almost lose her, it breaks me. No one will take my butterfly. I am a powerful man, and I make a vow to do anything within my power to keep her safe. I will be the one to set my butterfly free as she learns to fly once more, free from the chains that once held her down.  Ellie Simms is a woman on the run. She had just escaped from an abusive ex-boyfriend who left his mark on her skin. A talented design artist, she finds solace in a new job with Harris Corp Designs, owned by the enigmatic Zac Harris. Upon meeting Ellie during her job interview, Zac immediately recognises deep pain within her beautiful, albeit withdrawn shell, rousing his protective instincts. When she finally opens up, Zac discovers that she is broken in more ways than one. After seeing the travesty carved into her skin, Zac takes her to a tattoo parlour to cover it up, and Ellie chooses a butterfly, a creature as beautiful and delicate as herself... Ellie may think she's broken, but Zac sees the beautiful, brave woman she is as she fights to bring justice into this cruel world.
