Fifty Shades Freed by E. L. James Anastasia Steele first encountered Christian Grey, a young entrepreneur driven by ambition and dazzling in appearance whose passionate affair changed both of their lives irrevocably. Ana demands a deeper relationship from Christian as she is stunned, intrigued, and, ultimately, repelled by his singularly erotic tastes. Despite his initial reticence, Christian agrees. The future for Ana and Christian is full of possibilities now that they enjoy love, passion, intimacy, wealth, and the possibility of a bright future. However, Ana knows that loving her Fifty Shades will not be easy, and being together will present challenges that neither of them could anticipate. Ana must somehow learn to share Christian’s opulent lifestyle without sacrificing her own identity. And Christian must overcome his compulsion to control as he wrestles with the demons of a tormented past. Just when it seems that their strength together will eclipse any obstacle, misfortune, malice, and fate conspire to make Ana’s deepest fears turn to reality.
