title: To Hate Adam Connor
author:  Ella Maise 
description: I love nothing more than to escape real life to find those very few magical moments in a book. I love how it has the power of stealing your worries away, putting a smile on your face, and of course sometimes making you crush on fictional characters. If I can manage to do even one of those things for a reader, I will be a happy writer. Ella Maise, an avid reader and a big dreamer, is the author of To Love Jason Thorn, I'm Yours, and the Alexander &amp; Maya series. Visit her at ellamaise.com

  known as the Ice Queen. Although his cousins assume she’s as guilty as the men
  she serves, the unscrupulous smugglers of the Channel of Dubh, Connor is
  convinced she’s being coerced. His mother was abused and controlled, and he
  suspects the same is true of Sela.
  
  
  
  
  
  For five years, Sela has known only misery, with one exception: her sweet
  daughter, Claray. But her love for her bairn has been used against her in the
  worst way possible—the men who run the Channel use Claray to ensure Sela does
  their bidding. The last thing she’s liable to do is trust a man, any man, let
  alone fall in love with one. But Connor Grant is the son of the great
  Alexander Grant, and he's every bit as fierce, noble, and protective as his
  sire.
  
  
  
  
  
  If Sela helps Connor and his cousins, they stand a chance at crushing the
  nefarious Channel of Dubh once and for all. But
