Sweet Wicked Thing (Scream for Me Duet, #1)

Psychotic. Unhinged. Certifiable. It’s nothing Aston St. James hasn’t been called before. Abandoned on the steps of a church as a newborn, it’s been one losing battle after another as he was chucked from one broken system to the next. First, foster care, and now as a patient at Ashwood Asylum. He’s accepted his terrible lot in life. Relishes in it, even, especially after that night six years ago, when his entire life was upended with one single, irredeemable act. Not that Aston wants to be redeemed. No, no, everything they say about him is true. He just wishes it hadn’t cost him one of the few good things he had in his short life: His foster brother, Vale DuPont. Never did he think he’d see his quiet little mouse again. But when a chance at a seemingly normal life comes a-knocking, leading him into the old drafty halls of Grady Preparatory Academy, it would seem fate is far from done with them. And Vale is far from that meek little boy Aston once vowed to protect. If only the big, bad quarterback was as happy to see him as he was… And didn’t have secrets of his own that threaten to unravel everything. Scurry, scurry, little mouse. You know I’ll always find you. Sweet Wicked Thing is the first in a dark MM romance duet. Previously published as part of Anti-Valentine: An MM Romance Anthology (released in February 2023), it has since undergone heavy revisions and been expanded into a two-part full-length story.
