(On my twenty-first birthday, no less.)Too bad I bump into my almost lover at my mother's wedding a few months later.That's when I discover he's none other than Reid Sebastian-my new step cousin and the billionaire son of my step-dad's rival. Which means he's my rival, too, obviously. While I thought he was cruel before, he's become obsessed with torturing me. And because we're family, he's always around. Now we're playing a brutal game that neither of us can possibly win. But I have a secret-the more we play the more I want him. Even if it means we both lose everything.Brutal Secret is a complete standalone forbidden, age-gap, forced proximity romance set in an intriguing world of billionaires, power, and scandal.
