Xavier was never meant to be mine. He’s my stepbrother—dangerous, commanding, and completely forbidden. I spent years building walls to keep him out, but it only took one night for him to tear them all down. He isn’t just haunting my memories—he’s stalking my every move, turning our home into a gilded cage. In this house, secrets don’t stay buried. They suffocate. And Xavier Mattoe is done pretending. One house. One secret. One night that ruined everything.
