Blair thought nothing could hurt more than discovering her mate in bed with her best friend—until he blamed her for it, calling her a prude. Desperate to prove him wrong, she decides to have a one nightstand. But one reckless, drunken night leads to a mistake she can’t take back. Her one-night stand with a stranger should’ve been the end of it, right? But when her mother introduces her new stepbrother, Kade, Blair realizes the truth—her mystery hookup is now family. Worse? He’s moving in as her roommate. Kade is cocky, infuriating, and everything she should avoid. But resisting him is easier said than done. Can she survive living under the same roof with the one guy she’s dangerously attracted to? Or will temptation win?

The furniture, the TV and even my mother blurred into nothing as I stared at him.That face.No. No. No.This could not be happening.I tried to swallow but it felt harder than anything. I couldn’t even breathe properly and I was sure everyone could hear my heart beating so loudly.Why was it him?I pinched myself, desperate to wake up from my dream. I must still be sleeping because this could not be my reality.The pain I felt in my hand after I pinched myself made me realize that this was real. I was here, with my mother and the boy I lost my virginity to.Last night, he had kissed me, and we had sex. And now, he was standing there, about to be introduced as my new step-brother.My lips opened to talk but no sounds came out. I looked like a fool, my mouth opening and closing out of shock.Immediately, I looked away, biting down on the insides of my lips. There was no way this was happening to
BLAIR’S POVI stirred awake, squinting my eyes at the sun rays coming through the window. A yawn escaped my lips as my body stretched against the bed.Wait!This bed felt different.My eyes snapped open, and I bolted upright, the bedsheet slipping down my bare shoulders. I looked down, and my eyes widened when I saw that I was naked!I sucked in a sharp breath and pulled the covers up to my chest, my gaze darting around the unfamiliar room.And soon, I spotted my clothes scattered on the floor.Oh, my goddess, I thought, panicking.How did I get here? What did I do?My heart pounded as bits of memories flashed through my mind.I remembered the bar. The drinks. That guy, the one with piercing blue eyes and a gorgeous smile.I remembered kissing him. I remembered wanting him. But the rest? I couldn’t remember the details. I couldn’t remember how I even got here.Shit!Did I really do it?

BLAIR’S POV“Another glass, please.”I slammed the glass cup on the bar top, sniffling as tears dropped to my clothes. The bartender gave me a pitiful look before pouring me another shot of vodka. I shouldn’t be crying in a bar but it was the only place I could drown my sorrows.I couldn’t go back to my room, not yet. It would be too suffocating and I didn’t want to be that girl. The one who curled up in bed and cried while the ones who betrayed me carried on like nothing happened. I caught them. They were the ones who should be miserable. Not me. The alcohol burned its way down as I gulped it, but it wasn’t enough. It didn’t drown out the betrayal, didn’t erase the image of Jaxon and Harper together, with his body pressed against hers as he thrust into her.I could still see them and hear their moans. Maybe if I kept drinking, it would finally stop. I slammed my empty glass down on the counter and signaled the bartender. “Another.” He hesitated, giving me that look, the one

In my case, I lost my mate and everyone I thought I trusted.I spotted a couple kissing the moment I stepped into the loud frat house filled with people dancing and drinking. I watched them for a second and shook my head as they groped each other.As I weaved my way through the dark crowd, the house vibrated with deafening music and the air was thick with the scent of alcohol and sweat.Wow, I thought, seeing how people were pressed against each other, grinding to the beat and lost in the thrill of the party.Once again, Jaxon had thrown the wildest and best birthday party of the year.I tightened my grip on the wrapped gift in my hands, making sure it didn’t slip.
