Desperate Measures




Our favorite fairy tales take a turn for the decidedly wicked in the first book in this viral TikTok sensation about sexy modern villains getting their due. Yasmina has no desire to marry, especially if the groom is the darkly sinister Jafar. But when she loses a bet with stakes higher than she's willing to pay, she finds herself trapped in his web...and loving every sinful second.

Once upon a time, I was a sheltered princess. Now he owns me, body and soul.

One night, and my entire life went up in flames. All because of him. Jafar. As my world burned 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 him, my body loves the delicious punishments he deals out. It's almost enough to believe he cares. But a gilded cage is still a prison, and I'll do anything to obtain my freedom.

Even betray the man who captured my heart.
