Janie The woman I am today was forged by my past. One night changed everything, forcing me to fight for my survival. I reclaimed my life with grit and determination, shaped by my time as a Marine. My mission became clear... empowering women to protect themselves. Defending against physical threats was second nature. Guarding my heart against love? That was the real battle. Then came Ashton Callahan... a force I never saw coming. Neither of us realized we carried something the other desperately needed. We never expected that one buried truth could tear us apart. Ashton, the perfect submissive, fed the dominant fire within me. But when the real reason he moved to Oregon is revealed, the love we built teetered on the edge of destruction.
