   Summary

   When Everett's estranged father dies, he discovers he has a little sister he knew nothing about and a decision to make: take her in and turn his life upside down or walk away.

   It isn't really a decision. Maya is his sister.

   Suddenly, the RBU PhD student must learn how to balance the demands of his doctoral program and the realities of raising a child while the carefully constructed life he built begins to collapse around him. Because Everett isn't used to being the one to provide structure in his personal life.

   He's the one who craves it. Craves rules, discipline, and the safety of someone strong enough to hold him steady. Craves submission. Craves being a Little. Craves having a daddy to take care of him.

   Dr. Julian Monroe wants to be exactly that for him.

   (No physical discipline of minor character will happen in this story)
