Meet Jai in this sexy stepbrother
romance!
NOW AVAILABLE for ONLY $0.99!
SWIPE LEFT.
That's
all I did. A few too many glasses of wine with my best friend and the bitch
convinced me to go on one of those dating websites.
A
one-night stand.
A booty
call.
And you
know what? It.was.amazing.
I spent
all night in a sexy stranger's arms, hot and sweaty, until it was time to sneak
out and do the walk of shame back to my apartment.
I never
thought I'd see sexy stranger again, and I was totally fine with that - until
my mother's wedding.
She's
getting remarried, see. And sexy stranger just happens to be my new
stepbrother.
All the
wine in the world isn't going to make this better.
EXCERPT ONE
I’m reaching for a napkin when I see
that Jai is on the other side of the table, helping himself to a generous
portion of the oysters.
“You know what they say about
oysters,” he says. I pretend I didn’t hear him, but when I look over, he’s
staring right at me.
“What?” I hiss. “You think you’re
being clever? You think you’re going to impress me with that totally unoriginal
line, like I’ve never heard that oysters are an aphrodisiac? That’s not why I
took some—I happen to like how they taste very much and as a poor college
student, I can’t afford to eat like this!”
He’s still staring. At my chest.
Then the smirk returns. “Might want to pull up that dress, Janet Jackson.”
“What?” I look down. My left breast
has completely popped out of the top of the dress, my nipple there on full
display for anyone who happens to be looking. “Shit!” I try to stuff myself
back in the dress, dropping the plate of salad and oysters in the process.
“Fuck!”
“You know, they’ve got things you
can paste on in these sorts of situations.” He reaches over and picks up the
wayward oysters and puts them back on my plate.
“I’m not eating those,” I say. “I
need to talk to you.”
I wriggle my shoulders and try to
get myself as secure in the dress as I can before I hurry around to the other
side of the buffet table. “I need to talk to you over here.” We go to the back
of the restaurant, near the hallway to the bathroom, and I strategically place
myself behind one of the columns that keeps us partially obscured from the rest
of the restaurant.
“Imagine meeting you here,” Jai
says, a slow grin spreading across his face. “I really had no idea. No idea at
all. I knew I was going to be getting some stepsisters out of this blessed
union, but I really had no clue—”
“Are you fucking kidding me? You
expect me to believe that? You’re a fucking dog. A total fucking asshole.”
“I really do like the scarf. And the
dress, too. You should’ve left the tit out. You’ve got great tits, you know.”
“I do NOT want to talk about my
tits!”
“That’s certainly not the tune you
were singing last night.”
“Do you realize how not funny this
is? What a complete disaster this is?
OUR PARENTS ARE GETTING MARRIED. That means we’re going to be brother and
sister.”
“Step
brother and sister. There’s a difference, darling.”
