His Favorite Mistake

New Chapter Every Monday/Wednesday/Friday

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Everyone at Blackthorne University knew two things about Damian Knight:

1. He was untouchable.
2. Getting involved with him always ended badly.

Cold-eyed, filthy rich, and terrifyingly calm, Damian carried rumors around him like smoke - underground fights, violence, girls crying in bathrooms after he got bored of them. Even professors avoided him.

And unfortunately for Aria Collins, he was also her best friend's older brother.

Aria had spent years hating him. Hating the way he watched her too closely. Hating the way every room changed when he walked in. Hating how he always acted like he owned things he never touched.

Especially her.

But when Aria desperately needs protection from someone stalking her on campus, they strike a deal.

Simple.

Except nothing about Damian is simple.

Because behind closed doors, he's possessive. Controlling. Addictive. The kind of man who says dangerous things in a soft voice and means every word of them.

And the more they pretend to be together, the more Aria notices things she shouldn't:

* the bruises on his knuckles,
* the way he stares at her like he's fighting himself,
* and how violently he reacts whenever another man touches her.

Then she discovers the truth:

Damian didn't randomly choose her for the fake relationship.

He wanted her long before the deal.

And someone around them knows exactly what he's capable of.

As obsession turns into something darker, Aria realizes the real danger isn't falling for her best friend's brother-

It's discovering what Damian Knight would do to keep her.
