“You say I’ll never own you. If I win—you willingly give me that right. You sign
not only the debt agreement, but another—one that makes me your master until
your last breath is taken. You do that, and I’ll give you this.”
Nila Weaver’s family is indebted. Stolen, taken, and bound not by monsters but by
an agreement written over six hundred years ago, she has no way out.
She belongs to Jethro as much as she denies it.
Jethro Hawk’s patience is running out. His inheritance gift tests, challenges, and
surprises him—and not in good ways. He hasn’t leashed her but he thinks he
might’ve found a way to bind her forever.
Debts are mounting. Payment waiting.
First Debt by Pepper Winter is LIVE!

Excerpt #1
A small gasp fell from my lips as his fingers kissed the paper-thin skin. His
eyes held me hostage. The golden brown was now a swirling bronze, raging with
the same demanding hunger I knew reflected in mine.
“This sort of reminds me of the forest,” I whispered. “The trees around us—no
one else.” My words fell like petals, waiting for Jethro to crush them beneath his
glossy shoe.
But…he didn’t.
Tracing one hand from my wrist, along the inside of my arm, and right to my
throat, he fisted my ponytail. With intensity that stripped my soul to the very
essence of who I was, he pulled my head back slowly, sensually, full of sexual
power.
His eyes dropped to my mouth. “I’ll let you in on a little secret, Ms. Weaver.”
I panted, my neck straining against his hold, but I made no move to break the
poignant awareness.
“You won that night, but I lied when I said it pissed me off.” His mouth dropped,
his tongue licked my bottom lip with the barest of grazes.

Review:
And I thought the first book threw me for a loop. After the first book I was so worried that Nila wouldn't run. I was worried about her having Stockholm syndrome and just giving up. I couldn't have been more wrong.
Nila has proven to be a very worthy opponent to Jethro and questions everything at every turn. She has Jethro questioning himself and his feelings. She has the ability to make him thaw and just feel even though he doesn't want to.
So many questions from the first book were answered but now, I have even more questions that I need answered. I want to know more about the sister and what the whole deal with her and Jethro is. Is Kes really a nice guy or is he playing Nila? I thought I knew who Kite007 but, I was oh so wrong. The grandmother is also a huuuuuge question????
This book is so twisted and while reading it I have to keep reminding myself that Nila is technically a prisoner and a debt. The romance portion is just a bonus. I didn't think I would like Jethro at all after the first book. Contrary to what I thought about him then, my heart has softened where he is concerned and I truly think he's a good guy in a bad family. I just pray that he doesn't do something stupid to make me hate myself for loving his character. I keep waiting for the other shoe to drop and for the family to treat Nila as a captive and not a member of the family.
