Honestly the story is pretty sparse, with only the barest thread of a plot holding it together.

The story follows Caleb, a gangster who’s gained fame in the sex trafficking world as a slave trainer, and Livvie, the girl he kidnaps in order to train her for sale to a rich Russian mafia boss in order to gain access to said mafia boss so he can enact a revenge plot. The prose is very good, dramatic, and gripping, and it is not hard to see why it managed to gain popularity. While the book is billed as being dubcon, it is most firmly noncon in nature. It is a very disturbing book, so please mind the warning tags.
