From Elizabeth Stevens, writing as E.J. Knox, comes
The Kings cleaner. The good girl playing bad girl. And a price not usually paid between stepsiblings.
Rowan Finch is a thug. Protected at the top of a hierarchy at the right-hand of a king. He takes pleasure from being cruel and sadistic, and his ability to deal with dead bodies. Im a good girl behind the façade, but I want him to show me what its like to be bad.
My lifes never been good. Not even fine. My mums dragged us from one shitty stepfather to another and through so many schools Ive lost count. Its a wonder I maintain my A average. Her latest husband? Rowans father, who is ten times scarier than his son.
So, when my brother gets himself into another shitstorm, I do the unthinkable. I ask Rowan for a favour. Turns out, its a favour hes happy to grant so long as I pay his price. But does my brothers life mean more to me than my morals? Maybe.
Because Rowans price? Its me. Where he wants. How he wants. When he wants. Rowans price is one Id happily pay for no favour. Not that ever Id tell him that.
Ill let Rowan bully me and use me, but can I let him love me? I dont know that either of us can. All I know is that my stepbrothers the most real thing Ive ever felt.
This is a dark, angsty, contemporary high school bully/enemies-to-lovers, stepsibling romance with enough steam to melt your screen. Do not engage in public consumption unless your poker face is impenetrable.
Do not read if you dont like bossy alpha males claiming whats theirs, a nerdy but feisty heroine determined to keep what independence she can, unlikely friendships, snarky love-to-hate-them side characters, or bad boys with secret hearts of gold.
Contains possible triggers.
