## Summary

A brand-new freshman in college, Summer is ready to start her romance with her longtime crush Kevin Matthews. Sure, he might be her stepbrother, but she's not going to let these small details bother her. Except when Kevin's hunky frat brother appears, she might have to reconsider her plans.

Utterly cool and untouchable, Caden is the guy every girl wants and every guy wants to be. As head of his fraternity, he's keeping tabs on any hint of trouble— and it looks like Kevin Matthews and his stepsister are going to be a double dose of it.

You've come to college determined to win over your longtime crush— who also happens to be your stepbrother! But when his sizzling-hot housemate catches your eye, you're forced to choose between taboo love and the school's resident heartthrob.

Your heart will have to choose between what's forbidden and what's real.
