“May I help you?” she asked. He lifted a brow. Her question should’ve irked him.
She lounged in his father’s house, as if she belonged there. But the light sound of her voice brought wicked images to his mind.
“What type of help are you offering?”
A blush crept into her cheeks, yet she grinned. Mischief lit her eyes. Her stunning face would work as well on-camera as her perfect body. She held out her hand.
“I’m Story. Babs’ daughter.” Fuck! This girl wasn’t a servant’s daughter, taking advantage of his father’s generosity and liberalism. She was his stepsister.
Believing her mother to be an opportunist, he wanted to resent her. For some reason, he walked forward and took her hand into his.
“Max,” he introduced.
“Max,” she breathed, her friendliness turning wary. “Winston’s son?” His reputation preceded him. “The porn star,” she giggled out nervously. His career wasn’t a secret, but it shocked him that she brought it up. Most people refused to admit they liked porn. He nodded, enjoying the blush creeping over her entire body.
“The same.”
“Richard Head.” She was still giggling. He waited for his annoyance at the grating sound. It didn’t come. Once again, he nodded.
“Or is it Dick Head?” she asked around peals of laughter that drew a chuckle from him.
“Have you watched me?” That shut her up. She snapped her mouth shut and offered him and under-eyed look.
“Maybe,” she responded in a sing-song tone.

RELEASE BLITZ & REVIEW - Seduction (Her British Stepbrother #2) by Lauren Smith



SEDUCTION
Her British Stepbrother (Part 2)
Lauren Smith
Releasing March 8th, 2016
Forever Yours


The sequel to FORBIDDEN.

Tristan is a man who knows what he wants. And he wants Kat in his bed. All he has to do is convince her they belong together . . .

Kat knows the connection she and Tristan share is special. Her British bad boy is too much of everything: too hot, too arrogant, too irresistible to stay away from. He's her addiction and one night with him isn't enough.

That's what hurts the most. They can't date, can't be a normal couple, not when their parents are getting married. Because now that she knows he's going to be her stepbrother, no one can ever find out what they've done . . .


This part of the series is just as awesome as part one, quite possibly just a bit better actually. The chemistry between Kat and Tristan is still eleventy kinds of hot, but the bombshell ending of Forbidden, their relationship is over before it really gets a chance to start. Not only is their relationship status is question, things are happening in Tristan's life that could possibly unravel the seams of his life, and most definitely not a good way. I love how developed the characters are, and the twists added to the story make it so that you don't want to put the book down until you've reached the end of this installment. Seriously, my only complaint is that we have to wait until May to get the conclusion to Tristan's and Kat's story. But I would highly recommend this series, so go 1-click now!

BLOG TOUR REVIEW & GIVEAWAY - Bad Romance by Jen McLaughlin

Select Loveswept Ebook Bundle



BAD ROMANCE
A Stepbrother Novel
Jen McLaughlin
Releasing Sept 15th, 2015



In this explosive novel from bestselling author Jen McLaughlin, a good girl falls for the ultimate bad boy: her stepbrother. Perfect for fans of Sabrina Paige, Caitlin Daire, and Krista Lakes, Bad Romance proves that passion can be so wrong it’s right.

Seven years in the army will change a guy. But after a shoulder wound ends his career as a sniper, Jackson Worthington finds himself back home, fighting a battle that’s all too familiar: keeping his hands off Lily Hastings. She’s still her rich daddy’s little angel, innocent, impossibly lovely, as squeaky-clean as Jackson is dirty. And she’s still his stepsister—forbidden but not forgotten, not after the soul-melting kiss that got him kicked out of the house at eighteen. He couldn’t resist her then. How the hell can he resist her now?

Lily is about to marry a man she doesn’t love, and commit to a high-stress job she hates, all to please the father who controls every waking moment of her life. On top of everything, her teenage crush is back, with a sleek, chiseled body and a trace of the rebellious boy whose lips sealed her fate. Jackson’s timing couldn’t be worse . . . or better. Because Lily’s all grown up, too. She’s aching for another taste. And for the first time, she’s ready to be a bad girl.



I've read quite a few stepbrother romance stories lately, and while this wasn't bad, it wasn't great either. There were a few too many ingredients in this book: the crappy family dynamics, both Jackson's and Lilly's personal issues, the arranged marriage, the repetitiveness of the whole "stepsibling" moniker. 

As far as the characters themselves, Jackson was actually pretty decent, but Lilly on the other hand? I honestly wasn't impressed with her. She was far too malleable with her father, always saying and doing things to please her father, including co-signing on the whole arranged marriage. Lilly just didn't have enough sass and backbone in her to make her a character I wanted to care about.

Overall, this isn't a bad story, but it's not awesome either. I'm sorry to say that I found this one to be a one-and-done read.
