"I'm going to have fun breaking you, beauty queen." They call him kingpin. A blond titan with the looks of a god, the wealth of a king, and the influence of the mob. Lance Johnson is the guy you go to when you want anything on Woodcreek University's campus. And I mean, anything. He's got more than one dean in his pocket, as well as nearly all the university's staff—the professor I'm a TA for included. He's got grown men and respected scholars by their balls, but he doesn't have me. I have a direct hand over his academic future and not only does he know that, he gets off on it. He tests me in any ways he can. He plays with me and pushes our boundaries to the point of their brink. He doesn't care that I control his grades. And definitely doesn't care that I have a boyfriend. He says I'm nothing but a perfect, little beauty queen. A plaything he can't wait to break. He sets his sight on me and...

A night with a handsome stranger should have been the best one of my life. But it turns out he wanted so much more from me. Stepbrother nightmare. That's Jaxen Ambrose. He's beautifully vicious, lethal, the villain, and I'm nothing but the plaything that gives him his high. He says I must pay for my sins. I do that or he'll end me. He's got it in his sick mind I've done something to him. That I've taken something from him but I'm no thief. The only thief is him. My enemy, my obsession. He involved me in his wicked game without me even knowing. Before he was cruel, he was kind, a stranger who'd been gentle and sweet. I even believed him capable of love. Only, that love turned out to be what I should fear most, his wickedest play of all. It's true that his cruelty could break me. But his love could destroy me. Warning: Beautiful Brute is an NA stepbrother romance...

Never trust a campus god. Knight Reed is a devil heir with a chip on his shoulder. The arrogant a-hole I love to hate. His name may be Knight, but that armor is black as coal. He's a beautiful god with a wicked heart. I know because my mom used to work for his family. An act of brutal violence in the woods and he gets my mom fired, ultimately leaving us homeless. That was the last time I saw him face-to-face. At least, until recently. He's frat boy royalty at my new university, a campus god amongst the rich and elite. There's little interest in a freshman like me. But then I cross him, putting an end to me being invisible here in his world. At a party, I see something I shouldn't have seen. Now, suddenly, the campus god has me tackled on a bed with his hand around my throat. He tells me to forget what I witnessed. Do that or the end result will be bad for me. He's hellbent on crushing my little dove wings...
