Hope was a cruel mistress

Emerson was fine. She totally had everything under control.

So what if her dad had lost all their money and married Hope’s mom, her ex-best friend/high school mean girl? Who cared if the guy she’d had the most passion-infused night with turned out to be Hope’s brother but also her new stepbrother?

Not, Emerson. Nope. Not one bit.

Okay, that was a lie. It sucked.

And now Emerson had to attend Hayward College—Hope’s new kingdom. Her new stepsister didn’t delay bullying Emerson, reinforcing her who ruled the school…Her.

Emerson might be too curvy, too awkward, and too shy, but she wouldn’t let Hope win any longer.
She’d infiltrate her stepsister’s life and destroy it from the inside out.
She’d make the star quarterback and his best friend, the tight-end, crave her.
She’d join the dance team and steal her thunder
She’d take everything Hope valued for herself.


Hidden secrets made it unclear who the true villain was, and each cruel step took Emerson further away from the person and life she wanted. Especially when revenge became a more dangerous game than she’d bargained for.
