Jason hadn't denied it.

She'd told him he hated her and he hadn't denied it. He'd simply shrugged. Yet he wanted her to move in with him?

Was that his new way of torturing her?

Because I know what it's like to grow up wondering whether your father wanted you. I won't do that to my child.

He wasn't doing this because he suddenly wanted her. At least that's what she told herself. He was doing it because he refused to become his father. She hated that her heart had skipped at his determination to

Hi Immy. GoodNovel has the book marked as completed for now, so the new chapters are sitting in drafts while my editor fixes a few things. That's why you haven't seen the recent ones yet. I promise Anna and Jason are still causing problems behind the scenes...

  • Ruined By My Brother-In-Law    Because It's You

    Jason felt entirely too aware of Anna's hand in his. Her palm was clammy, but he made no attempt to let go of it. Instead, he kept his fingers loosely wrapped around hers, afraid that even the slightest movement might make her pull away.But she didn't.Anna's hand remained in his as they wove through the quiet hallways toward the backyard. Neither of them spoke, their footsteps the only sound between them. Jason pushed open the glass door and stepped into the warm, humid evening air.Anna followed him outside without letting go of his hand. He guided her toward the patio table and pulled out one of the chairs."Sit," he said softly, his hand sliding from hers to her shoulder as she lowered herself into the chair.Anna smoothed her hands down the front of her dress. Even now, she held herself so rigidly that Jason frowned. He slipped a finger beneath her chin and tilted her face toward him, then held another finger beneath her nose."You breathing?"Anna narrowed her eyes and swatted

  • Ruined By My Brother-In-Law    Crispy Edges

    Jason slammed the door of his Porsche shut harder than necessary, then strode up the front steps.He'd left work later than he'd wanted to, and now, he wasn't sure he'd be able to catch Anna alone.The double doors opened on the second ring of the doorbell, revealing one of the staff members. Jason recognized her as the one who usually attended to Anna."Good evening, Mr. Knight. Welcome home," she said, stepping aside.Jason nodded and strode past her, only to stop in the courtyard when he noticed that neither Anna's balcony nor her bedroom was lit. He turned back to the woman and gestured toward the balcony."Has she gone to bed?"She shook her head. "Anna's having dinner with her family."Jason paused, turning fully to her. "Her family?" Then he remembered why Clara hadn't been able to meet with Elena that afternoon. "Her mother?""Yes, sir.""I see. Inside or outside?""Inside, sir.""Thank you." He was already striding toward the house.His steps slowed as he crossed the living r

  • Ruined By My Brother-In-Law    Never Quite Enough

    "Anna, you're home."Anna didn't look at Elena. She barely registered the concern in her voice. She stood frozen by the door, watching her mother uncross her legs and lean forward on the couch."C'mere, child. Sit." She patted the space beside her, the easy smile still on her face.Anna crossed the room slowly and sat beside her mother. Only after she'd settled into the seat did she realize what she'd done. She quickly set her shoes down and slipped her aching feet back into them. Then she straightened her spine, squared her shoulders, and tried to salvage her hair by running her fingers through it.Only then did she meet her mother's gaze, searching her face for a sign she couldn't quite identify. "I had no idea you were coming." She flattened her palm against her clothes instead of gripping them as she wanted to. "I—I could have—"Her mother reached out and brushed Anna's hair over her shoulder, and Anna resisted the urge to move away."Oh, don't be so tense, dear." She tucked Anna's

  • Ruined By My Brother-In-Law    The Bombshell

    The strange flutter in her stomach hadn't gone away. Neither had the uneasy knot in her chest, which had settled there after Jason leaned against her and whispered those words.I'm sorry.A chill ran down Anna's spine as his voice echoed in her ears, the memory of his warm breath against her neck almost unbearably vivid. She turned towards the car window and rolled it down, exhaling heavily as the morning air rushed in.He'd muttered those same words last night as he curled into himself. Had they been for her as well?Us, Anna.And yet, I keep coming back. Like an addict crawling back to the same thing he knows could destroy him, knowing exactly what it'll cost him and doing it anyway.Anna squeezed her eyes shut, willing his voice to recede from her head. Instead, she saw the anguish in his eyes as he spoke those words. It had broken her heart, leaving her aching to comfort him.For once, he hadn't brought up the pregnancy. He'd acknowledged the possibility of an us. It had taken eve

    Jason glanced around the room with a frown, then back at the startled woman in his bed. "This was still my room the last time I checked."Wasn't he supposed to be the drunk one with a splitting headache here?He watched as she took in the room, the horror on her face deepening by the second. Her gaze dropped to the duvet still clutched in her hands like a lifeline before she shoved it away as though it had burned her.Her gaze flicked over him, then away so quickly that Jason almost missed it. "This...""Guess I should be the one asking that question." Jason stepped closer to the bed and tossed her phone onto it. She stared at it for a moment before her gaze returned to him. "Is there a particular reason you're in... my bed?"The question must have come across as an accusation, because the horror on Anna's face quickly gave way to a scowl."I'm not here to seduce you, if that's what you're worried about," she snapped.Jason's frown deepened. "I never said—""I'm just going to leave." A

  • Ruined By My Brother-In-Law    Sounds Like Her

    Ouch.Anna wrinkled her nose as the smell of alcohol and cigarettes hit her again, stronger this time. Something beneath her groaned and moved, making Anna frown. She shifted her hand and felt warm skin over hard muscle.Was she lying on top of—Anna scrambled to her feet and hurried backward. She switched on her phone's flashlight, using it to find the wall switch. Jason raised a hand to shield his eyes from the sudden glare of light, mumbling unintelligibly. Anna stared at Jason Knight in shock. He was on the floor, shirtless and drunk, his phone beside him as he mumbled like a child.What in heaven's name was he doing on the floor?Unable to help it, she laughed softly, covering her mouth to muffle the sound."You really did trip and fall." Her laughter vanished as the words she'd just uttered registered. She hurried back to his side and dropped to her knees, her nose wrinkling at the smell. “Jason?”He stirred at the sound of her voice. "Turn that damn light off," he muttered.Reli

    With a hesitant hand, Anna clicked on the email. A block of dread settled like lead on her chest as she quickly skimmed the email.

    The smell hit Anna before the light did. She rolled onto her back with a soft groan, her nose twitching. Something rich… savory… definitely food.She blinked awake, frowning at her ceiling. Her ceiling. She didn’t remember coming back to her room. She remembered the rooftop, Jason’s arm around her…

    The door to the rooftop creaked open and Anna stepped out, a folded yoga mat under her arm and Jason's jacket still around her. The cool air brushed against her neck and cheeks, tousling the strands of her hair around her face. She stepped further out, noting how quiet it really was up here, the

    Jason tensed as Anna drew him down by the collar, her lips pressing into his, slow and deliberate. His brain fizzled like overloaded wires sparking and his hands clinched at his sides. If he let this become more than theatrics, everything he’d built—done— to get here would unravel like cheap stit
