Cherished (Club Indigo #4)

She grew up without parents. He wants to be her Daddy Dom. Can they build a future together?

Sonja Madden is co-owner of a successful café and bakery. Being successful in business hasn't brought her happiness, though. Having grown up as an orphan, Sonja longs for something more in life. Attracted to dominant men, she joined Club Indigo to find her perfect partner, but in five years, she still hasn’t found anyone, and has a reputation as a brat.

Derek Kiriakis comes from a Greek immigrant family and is an experienced social worker who works with abused children. Happy with his job and the influence he has on the children in his care, he’s looking for a special woman in his personal life, one who is strong enough to submit in the bedroom but who will also allow her inner child to be guided and cared for by a Daddy Dom.

Their fragile bond is tested when someone from Derek's past appears and puts Sonja, her business, and their relationship in danger. Afraid for Sonja, Derek distances himself as he tries to sort out how to keep the woman he loves safe. Must Sonja lose Derek, or will she find her own happily ever after in being cherished as the little girl she never had a chance to be?
