Forbidden Little Game (Crimson College Book 4)

He's everything she's supposed to hate—and she's about to lose spectacularly.

At Crimson College, Wren has one rule: never let anyone get under her skin. She's survived three years by being smarter, sharper, and colder than everyone around her. Then he shows up. Her academic rival. Her new lab partner. The insufferably gorgeous man who seems to exist solely to dismantle every wall she's carefully built.

They agree to keep things simple—a game between two people who can't stand each other but can't seem to stay apart. No feelings. No complications. Just the delicious tension that crackles every time they're in the same room, trading barbs that feel dangerously close to flirtation.

Except Wren is losing. Not the game—she's terrifyingly good at that. She's losing something far more dangerous: her certainty that she doesn't need him.

He sees through every performance she puts on. He remembers the details she throws out carelessly. He looks at her like she's not a problem to be solved but a person worth knowing. And that terrifies her more than anything else at this school ever has.

*Forbidden Little Game* is a slow-burn, sharp-tongued college romance about two people too stubborn to admit the game ended the moment it began—and what happens when the only thing left to lose is each other.
