Brutal Heir

She came to heal the monster. Instead, she woke the man beneath. Alessandro They say I should've died in that explosion. Maybe I did... because the man staring back at me in the mirror sure as hell isn't the heir to the Gemini empire anymore. He's a scarred, savage thing held together by pain, rage, and a hunger for vengeance. And now they've sent her, this fiery, foul-mouthed redhead with zero self-preservation to babysit me. I should hate her. But the longer she stays, the more her hands aren't just stitching up my wounds... They're breaking through my armor, awakening a fire I swore was dead. And if I'm not careful, I'll end up dragging her into my bed and into my darkness. Rory All I wanted was to disappear. Start over. Stay hidden. Keep breathing. I didn't plan on becoming the live-in nurse to the most dangerous man in Manhattan. Alessandro Rossi is angry, wounded, and lethal. Even half-broken, he could end me with a word. But I see what's behind the scars-the monster everyone fears and the man no one else knows. I should run. But the thing about running from monsters? Eventually, you stop being afraid of the dark. And worse, you start craving it. Brutal Heir is the third spicy story in the dark and decadent Ruthless Heirs series. Each book is a standalone novel complete with a HEA, of course, because even villains deserve a happy ending. This series is the next generation of the Kings of Temptation, but it is not necessary to read those stories first. Please note: this is a dark romance novel with scenes that may be triggering and sexually explicit in nature.

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 and all I see is that cruel boy from the woods that day. When it comes to Knight, I can't seem to stay out of his way or keep my trap shut around him, no matter how hard I try. He tells me my little mouth will get me in trouble, but I think he's wrong. I'm not afraid what will happen if I spill his secrets. What terrifies me is how badly I want to see what might be beyond all that coal-black armor... It's possible that, to some small measure, I'm tempted to give in to the only devil I've ever known. The dark knight himself. Warning: Brutal Heir is an NA bully romance that contains dubious content and situations some may find triggering. It's recommended for readers 17+ and is a standalone novel with no cliffhanger. It's book one in a series of standalones titled Court University, which is a spin-off series about characters featured in Eden O'Neill's Court High books. Reading the Court High books first is not necessary for the enjoyment of Court University. The characters origin stories merely begin in Court High and can be referred to at any time if the reader so chooses. Enjoy!
