I’m drowning in my mother’s disappointment and my own failures when she ships me off to my stepfather’s farm like some wayward teenager.
Two months of manual labor to "earn back" the tuition I wasted—humiliating doesn’t even begin to cover it.But the moment I meet Matt, my devastatingly gorgeous stepbrother, everything changes.
He’s twelve years older, built like a mountain, and completely off-limits.When he accidentally walks in on me in the bathroom, desperately needing relief from my stress-induced condition, I make the most reckless decision of my life.One look at his intense dark eyes, and I’m begging him to help me with something no stepbrother should ever do.
Matt’s massive hands are surprisingly gentle as he takes control, but when I whisper that I’m fertile, something primal awakens in him.He claims me completely, his towering frame overwhelming my petite body as he makes it clear I belong to him now.The consequences of our forbidden encounter terrify me, but I can’t resist the way he dominates every aspect of my spoiled existence.
He drags me out at dawn for grueling work, shadows my every move, and refuses to let me charm my way out of honest labor. I hate how he sees right through my bratty schemes, but I’m addicted to the way he touches me, the way he fills me, the way he makes me feel completely owned.
When my body starts changing in ways that will expose our secret, I realize Matt isn’t just teaching me about hard work—he’s teaching me about surrender, about becoming the woman I’ve never expected to become.
