His Brother's Fiancée
Vivian Wood - 2018
Effie goddamn White, the raven-haired, pouty-lipped temptress. Hell, I was f*cking obsessed with her. Her touch, her smell, her taste… I couldn’t get enough. And she shattered my cold, hardened heart into a million pieces. I’ll never let that happen again. Ever. I know better. My brother Thorne waited in the wings. When I left, he pounced. Now I’m back, and Effie’s on Thorne’s arm, wearing Thorne’s ring. But she’s looking at me. And when we are trapped together, she’s undressing me with those baby blue eyes. Touching me. Tormenting me. That thing that I said would never happen twice? F*ck, she’s doing it to me again. And I love the way it feels, almost as much as she does... His Brother's Fiancée is approximately 55,000 words. It features ABSOLUTELY NO CHEATING (by the hero + heroine), and ends in a happy ever after!

Always using every advantage to edge him out to win the coveted positions. The only one who could beat him. His academic rival. More like a constant thorn in his side. And his ego’s.

She was all woman now: curves, confidence, and staggering sex appeal. And no doubt, still brilliant. The fact that she’s gorgeous and bright won’t distract him.
