When her mother marries into the powerful Stirling family, Quinn Harley is forced to move into an opulent lakefront estate. In Reverence, California, the air is thick with secrets, gossip spreads faster than fire, and nothing burns hotter than Quinn’s stepbrother, North.
Cruel, magnetic, and impossible to stay away from, North toys with Quinn’s mind, body, and sense of control. One moment, he’s spitting venom. The next—kisses her hard enough to bruise, fingers her in the dark when she’s too shocked to stop him, or gets on his knees to make her come.

Everything about him is twisting and humiliating.
And still, her body aches for more.
But as Quinn starts to peel back the layers of the Stirling family’s past, she realizes her feelings for him might be the most dangerous lie of all.
