Cole Parker is my worst nightmare.
He’s a straight-up asshole who lives to torment me, and he’ll stop at nothing to punish me over the smallest slight.
When he digs up a sex tape starring—you guessed it—me, he takes bullying to a whole new level, using it to blackmail me into doing his bidding.
If the video gets out, it will ruin me.
But my stepbrother makes it clear that he doesn’t give a damn.
He drags me deep into his dark and twisted world, showing me the monster he hides beneath his handsome exterior, taking risks that put our lives in danger.
I thought I knew the devil I lived with.
I was wrong.
But so is he.
He thinks I’m nothing more than a pampered princess, but soon he’ll realize I’m a Queen.
And it’s time I put Cole in his place.
This book is NOT for you This full-length prequel is a forbidden, enemies-to-lovers standalone and features a hot, possessive/jealous stepbrother and a pampered princess who becomes a strong, kick-ass heroine when she learns that love and family mean more than Daddy’s bank account—packed with heat and heart, no cheating, no cliffhanger , and a happily ever after guaranteed!
Each book in the Whitmore Elite series is a standalone and can be read in any order.
