Filthy Desire

Skye

I'm falling in love with my new stepbrother, but he's never going to feel remotely the same about me. One, I'm insolvent and still living with our parents. Two, he keeps emphasizing how we're stepsiblings. Three, he's got hundreds of women queueing up to have a taste of him.

A deity in prince's shape, he's everything I'm not. His life is well put together, and he's rich, organized, and ambitious. At 24, I live with my mother and sister. I'm poor, spontaneous, and content with being an amateur at everything.

Now he's delving into our family secrets, and he doesn't permit me to hide things from him. What would he do if he found out the two big secrets I refuse to share?

Lachlan

Since my mother died, I've kept my heart on standby and my life well regimented. A gentleman-playboy, I have a weekly rinse-repeat cycle for women.

But now my father has remarried, and his new wife brings two stepdaughters in tow. The younger one is a pest who follows me around like a puppy and rolls over if I snap my fingers. She tries my patience and brings out the worst in me. She also makes my mind go to depraved places I can never visit in reality.

Knowing she idolizes me, I'll bleed her of her secrets and tame her for the pure pleasure of exerting my power. After all, who can break her better than her twisted, broken stepbrother?

This dark romance, number three in the Tainted Love series, can be enjoyed as a standalone.
