When my stepfather dumps me off at Bainbridge Hall, I can tell I’m in trouble. At the mercy of the brotherhood, I’m forced by my mother’s husband to follow their every command.
I should run. Far, far away.
From the moment I arrive, these bastards test me. Every time they push, another piece of my past trauma is exposed. But I’m stronger than they think I am, and I’ve learned the hard way the only person I can count on is me.
One brooding artist. One football god. And one hate-fueled stepbrother.
Mason.
Bear.
Duke.
The plan is simple. Keep my head down and focus on getting the college degree I so desperately want. But this house is not what it seems, and every door I open reveals a memory I had buried deep, things I had willed myself to forget.
Bainbridge Hall. Where the bastards are beautiful, and my nightmares become reality.
Mason is a 95,000+ word novel, the first book in the Bastards of Bainbridge Hall trilogy, centering around three men and one woman. MFMM for now ...
