I wasn't supposed to fall for my stepbrothers. When my mother married Richard Banks, I never expected cold shoulders and cruelty from his triplet sons. Chase, calculating and ruthless. Blade, clinical and unforgiving. Thorn, whose smile hides venom. Three identical faces with emerald eyes that watched me with contempt, three voices that cut deeper than any chemo ever could. They made it their mission to break me, not knowing I was already breaking from the inside out. They weren't supposed to find out about the cancer that's been stealing pieces of me since I was ten. But they did—when they found me on the cancer ward. I expected pity. Instead, I got possession. Now I live in a beautiful cage of their devotion. Their hands hold my hair when treatments make me sick. Their bodies warm mine when I can't stop shaking. As the cancer fights to claim me and their father schemes to control us all, the four of us are breaking every rule. The hatred that bound us has transformed into something far more dangerous—a love so fierce it burns everything in its path. They've claimed every broken piece of me and refuse to let death take what's theirs. But I'm not sure if I'm fighting to live for them... or fighting to protect them from the pain of watching me die. Three forbidden stepbrothers. One girl with a ticking clock. When stars collide, entire galaxies burn. Fractured Constellations is a stand alone dark Goldilocks retelling where our leading lady doesn't have to choose between her three growly stepbrothers.
