Publisher's summary

It was supposed to be one night. Now, he's obsessed.

When my one-night-stand turns into an all-time-fail, I vow not to tell anyone about the much older hottie who walked out on me mid-deed. (On my 21st birthday, no less).

Too bad I bump into my almost lover at my mother’s wedding a few months later.

That's when I discover he’s none other than Reid Sebastian—my new step cousin and the billionaire son of my step-dad’s rival. Which means he’s also my rival, obviously.

While I thought he was cruel before, he's become obsessed with torturing me. And because we're family, he's always around.

Now, we're playing a brutal game that neither of us can possibly win.

But I have a secret—the more we play the more I want him. Even if it means we both lose everything.

Brutal Secret is a complete standalone forbidden age-gap, forced proximity romance set in an intriguing world of billionaires, power, and scandal. While it is recommended to listen to Brutal Billionaire first for the best experience, it isn’t necessary to thoroughly enjoy the story.

Sexyyyyyyyy

This is such a sexy, naughty story that was made better by Vanessa and Jason sexy smooth voices! Vanessa nailed Lina to a tee. Every emotion, every feeling, every, everything! Jason did a great job as Reid as well. I already knew I was going to love this story, but listening to it was a different world because Vanessa & Jason are so good at what they do!
Reid had my from the go, him and Lina were prefect for each other in every way. The way he talked to her, treated her, the way he worried about her....gawwwwwwww. The say he said, "baby girl"....like I can't!!!! I high recommend this story to EVERYONE!

Age gap at its finest!

The Sebastian family has captivated me and I can't wait to hear all of their stories and secrets! Reid was so taken with Lina from the beginning. He tried to stay away, but their chemistry was too much for his to resist. I loved the banter between the two. Their chemistry was off the charts. The way Reid would refer to her as "baby girl" gave me all the tingles! Loved these two and I hope we find out what's down the road for them!

The narrators did a great job bringing this story to life. I didn't want to stop listening.

REID. SEBASTIAN. 😍🥵

Holy guacamole this was good! Had so many things that I liked, like forbidden romance, spice lessons, JP hero… ugh just so good!

I loved the narration! Both performed their roles really well. The only thing that made this a four and not a five is that Alina sometimes annoyed me with how “quirky” she was. It seemed over the top at some points. But other than that, I loved everything about this!

Another spicy hot billionaire romance by the queen!!

FMC is neurotic

Narrators: I liked Ms. Edwin for the most part. She got a bit nasally and shriek-y at times, though. I've added another favorite narrator in Mr. Clarke. Good male narrators are rare, imo. His voice was very listenable.

The story: The FMC, Lena, was neurotic. Anxiety my a$$. She had a good story, but her incessant jabbering and internal dialog got really old after a while. The MMC, R÷eed, was my favorite kind of "love interest." His voice and the dirty talk? Yes please. The build-up or lead-in for the relationship was too much. Reed kept putting off intercourse, even though they had done sooo much already. It was kind of stupid not to just go ahead and hit it. Overall, I liked this one, recommend.
