Brutal Ambition is a full-length secret society romance that contains dark subject matter some may find triggering. Please read the author's note if you need one. Be careful what you wish for. You just might get it. I used to fantasize about meeting a masked madman who would love me endlessly and obsessively. He would look after me in a world where no one else did. He would manipulate all the strings that held up my life until I had exactly the one I wanted. And then one night I met him. Only he wasn’t the hero I always imagined he would be. When we left the forest together that night, I thought I’d escaped the villains relatively unscathed, but my true villain was the man whose arms I felt safest in. He was the one who would tear me apart. Now I know the only way to save myself is to stay far away from Killian Walsh. But no matter how fast I run, he won’t stop chasing me. He knows the best thing he could do for me is set me free. But he’s too selfish to do it. He calls me reckless, but I think he’s crazy. Because Killian Walsh will let the flames consume us both before he will ever let me go.
