The Depraved Ones (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798234093844)

Maverick Egan was never supposed to be part of the plan.She stumbled into my life years ago, refusing to know her place, and somehow turned herself into the center of everything I never knew I needed. What started as one reckless act of kindness became the kind of love that ruins a man for anyone else. She's smart. Beautiful. Untouchable. And now? She belongs to him.

Olympia University's golden boy.

My former best friend.

My biggest rival.

Hewitt has always had everything handed to him. The scholarship. The spotlight. But I never cared for any of it. All I ever wanted was someone to love me enough to stay.

Once, Maverick was mine.

Once, I destroyed us.

She chose Hewitt after that. Chose the life I could never give her. And years later, the only thing I've ever truly cared about is standing beside the one man who keeps taking from me.

But every king has a weakness. And Hewitt's is her.

So when our coach orders me and Presley "Panic" Moreau to get close to Maverick, seduce her, and destroy Hewitt from the inside out, I tell myself it's just another game. Another strategy. Another hit I'll survive.

Easy.

Except Maverick isn't the girl I left behind. She's colder now. Sharper. Surviving instead of living. And every time she looks at me, I feel the same pull that never really disappeared.

The problem is... I'm not the only one feeling it anymore. And the closer we get, the more dangerous this becomes.

What started as revenge is turning into obsession. Jealousy is bleeding into loyalty, lines are blurring between teammates and rivals, and Maverick is standing in the center of all of it, quietly unraveling us both. Now I'm stuck between the life I built, the brother I'd bleed for, and the girl I never stopped loving.

And this time?

Losing her might destroy all of us.
