BLURB:
KEENAN
It’s
been four years since I ran away—from home, my brother, and my maybe father. I
created a life free of expectations while pretending I wasn’t being hunted by
all of the above. I managed to stay under the radar all this time… or so I
thought. When big brother shows up and saves my ass, I’m forced to face
everything I left behind, including her.
SHELDON
It’s
been four years since I became another statistic. I made a lot of mistakes when
it came to Keenan Masters. The first was loving him at all. He took something
from me the night he left, and when I told him I still loved him, he told me
he’d always hate me. After that, I learned how to be okay… until he came back.
Gone was the boy who always knew how to make me laugh, and in his place was a
cold, arrogant monster.

EXCERPT:
“What’s going on?” Sheldon asked from her
room door.
“Shouldn’t you be in bed?”
She lifted an eyebrow and propped a hand
on her hip. “Shouldn’t you be running?”
I stepped into her space until my hips
were pressed against hers and curled a finger around a glossy lock.
To a passing bystander, it would look like
a simple embrace between lovers and not the assertion of power it was.
“I hope you have as much mouth when I have
you alone and naked.”
“We’re alone now,” she challenged. “But
you won’t be getting me naked, ever.”
“What I’m going to do to you won’t bear
having witnesses. Nothing will give me more pleasure than punishing you past
your limits. I’m going to make you scream for me, Shelly, and when you do, you’ll
be begging.”
Just like you made me beg.
She rolled her eyes and scoffed. “You
sound like your brother.”
“I am my brother.”
The grittiness in my tone was
unrecognizable even to me. The proof of my claim lay in what I helped him do
not twenty-four hours ago.
“I’m going to hurt you, Sheldon, and not
just where it cuts deepest.” I touched her collarbone and then trailed a finger
down her chest while cursing the gown for keeping me from touching her
completely.
“So do you actually expect to just pick up
where we left off?”
“Second chances can be deadly, but I set
you free once. Now you’re mine.”
“I won’t love you
again, Keenan. It’s not something I can survive a second time.”
I laughed because I didn’t know how else
to react. We had unfinished business, but the only thing I felt for her was
anger and lust. Love didn’t have any place here.
“I don’t want your love. I just want you.” I didn’t
realize how true it was until I’d spoken the words.
“Isn’t that the same thing?”
“Not anymore,” I whispered reluctantly.
