DESCRIPTION:
After she is released from the hospital, she goes to the one place she feels safe-Maxwell Manor. As Nefertiti and Bruce fight their attraction for each other, they discover there was nothing random about the attack on Nefertiti.. When the woman he has always loved is violently attacked, the beast must return to save her. Being under the protection of the man she loves should be a dream come true for Nefertiti, but their personal demons strive for a nightmare. Once upon a time there was a beast who dwelled in a mansion in the far outskirts of Chicago. Many see Bruce Maxwell as a beast, but to Nefertiti Townes, he is Prince Charming. Rarely did the beast leave his safe haven, for he'd given up on the outside world years ago
