Our parents’ marriage put us under the same roof, but it didn’t make us like each other. My new stepsister is the definition of perfect. Kota attends an Ivy League, lives in a mansion fit for royalty, and has a boyfriend always by her side. Other than provoking the occasional punch and trading lingering stares, I got nothing to offer the perky cheerleader. So I keep my distance. Until I start noticing the things no one else does—the tears, the nightmares, the blood under her fingernails. Seems Stepsis is keeping just as many secrets as I am. Maybe more. Then comes 7 Minutes in Sea Haven. Seven minutes with the girl who hates me. We’re in the woods, she’s blindfolded, she has no idea it’s me. Finally, I get to see the real Kota Rhodes. It should be long enough…right? This is Khaos and Kota's story. Although it is book 2 in the Lit U series, it can be read as a complete standalone.
