From USA Today best seller Ella James—writing MM romance under the pen name Ellis James—comes an addictive enemies-to-lovers MM romance that audiences are calling one of the best love stories of the year.

It's true, I'm keeping secrets.

But I just found out one of his....

My new stepbrother is insufferable.

You'd think it wouldn't matter since I won't be here for long, but this guy gets under my skin like no one ever has. All-American, baby-faced, blue-eyed band dork and star soccer player. Everything about him is the picture of perfection—unlike me.

I don't think Do Gooder knows I'm starting senior year late. And he definitely doesn't know why. I've got secrets I'm taking with me to the grave.

Everyone thinks I moved to my dad's small town to play varsity football, but I've got other plans, and DG's trying to thwart them all. He's making my life worse than it already is.

Having him around is a damn plague. But I can fight back.

I found out a little secret about Mr. Perfect. He plays for the "other" team. That ball bat he's got stuffed into his gray sweatpants—it swings "that" way. The best part about this twisted game is when I find out it gets hard for me.

The Do Gooder...he wants me. I don't know why. But I know how to make him pay.

This story is emotional and so romantic, but it has some dark parts. Triggers include mental health struggles, trauma, abuse, drug use, and some themes that may be difficult for LGBTIQA+ listeners struggling with faith issues. All these things are handled as gently as possible.
