CORRUPT

From New York Times bestselling author Penelope Douglas comes a new dark romance...

Erika was told that dreams were our heart's desires. Her nightmares, however, became her obsession.His name is Michael Crist.Her boyfriend's older brother is like that scary movie that you peek through your hand to watch. He's handsome, strong, and completely terrifying. The star of his college's basketball team and now gone pro, he's more concerned with the dirt on his shoe than Erika.But she noticed him. She saw him. She heard him. The things that he did, and the deeds that he hid...For years, she bit her nails, unable to look away. Now, she’s graduated high school and moved on to college, but she hasn’t stopped watching Michael. He's bad, and the dirt she’s seen isn't content to stay in her head anymore. Because he's finally noticed her. Michael’s brother's girlfriend grew up hanging around his house and is always at our dinner table. She looks down when he enters a room and stills when he is close. He can always feel the fear rolling off of her, and while he hasn’t had her body, he knows that he has her mind. That's all he really wants anyway. Until his brother leaves for the military, and he finds Rika alone at college. In his city. Unprotected. The opportunity is too good to be true, as well as the timing. Because you see, three years ago she put a few of my high school friends in prison, and now they're out. We've waited. We've been patient. And now every last one of her nightmares will come true.
