For better, for worse...in bondage and submission. Life is tough for Alena Vetrov, and with an ailing grandmother and unemployed mother to support, she turns to easy money in an international mail-order bride service. Only she gets more than she bargained for.

Her voice is too curt, and her shifty look is downright confusing. I'm pretty sure she's asking for help, and it gets me to thinking. Four weeks ago, I almost lost her to hypothermia, while her employer, my ex-roommate, chased her into the woods. What if he's back? Maybe, that's why she's acting so strange. Whatever the reason, I'm sure as hell not letting her go. I'll fight to the death to keep what's mine safe.

What if all I got isn't enough? When you get right down to it, I am one mean son of a gun and make no apologies. You can’t own a billion-dollar company and be anything less.

I've been told I got issues with authority but it's not true. As long as no one's trying to be an asshole, I'm perfectly fine. The baby-faced FBI agent shows me a picture of Sonia and I groan. I met her at the Sochi games, a beautiful Russian ice princess. Even at 17, she was destined for Olympic gold.

My ex-fiancé is back, waving around my expensive ring, sitting in stands, and being a real pain in the ass. My lady-friend is pretty cool about the whole thing until the ex sets me up for a photo shoot, starring yours truly and her naked in my hotel room. That's when I figure enough is enough. Sure, we've been friends since we were kids but that doesn't give her the right to ruin the best thing that's ever happened to me. And when the love-of-my-life disappears? That's just over-the top.

There's no way she's tough enough to get me into shape. When my physical therapist's ex locks her out and takes everything she owns, I want to help. However, a recent, unfortunate incident has social media all over me. Risking all, I offer her cold, hard, cash but she refuses, suggesting I'm trying to buy her sexual favors. Now she's got this ridiculous idea she can get back on her feet with a wedding.

Inspired by the desire of many in the spirit realm, this audiobook is the result of a critical need for the living to be exposed to knowledge and perspective that might set them free from man-made obstacles and help lead them toward clarity and peace. The spirit realm requested of me that I make this audiobook by asking the living for questions they would then answer through channeling with me. It has been my honor to do so, as my goal in life as a medium is to assist individuals on their spiritual journey while they are experiencing the human condition.
