The Year in His Chains

On her anniversary, Anna comes home after a difficult shift expecting a quiet evening, only to find her husband Mike bound and an intruder turning the house into a trap. Before she can understand what is happening, she is restrained too, leaving their safety - and the reason for the attack - uncertain. The answer leads to Mike’s crushing debt to Jeremy, a feared crime lord who claims Anna as payment for a year. While Mike pushes her toward Jeremy to secure money, Jeremy’s controlling father wants Anna gone. Surrounded by deception, pressure, and divided loyalties, Anna must navigate a dangerous arrangement while trying to determine whom she can trust. What begins as a forced bargain becomes entangled with concealed motives and feelings neither side is ready to acknowledge.
