My Stepbrother Shares

104·Teresa Marie

He's forty. Brilliant. Built. And completely, catastrophically off-limits. Drake likes to share... and his stepsister, Marie is his new favorite toy. Marie has spent months pretending she doesn't notice the way Drake watches her... that slow, dark stare that makes her feel like the only woman in the room. She knows better. He's her stepbrother. His father married her mother. Sunday night dinners are already an act of sheer willpower, and she is running out of it fast. Drake has told himself every version of no there is. She's twenty-one. She's family. She’s a virgin. She deserves better than a forty-year-old man who doesn't do relationships. He's deleted the texts, kept his distance, stayed on his side of the bar... and none of it has worked. Because the moment she mouths the word whiskey across the room and grins like she already knows what she does to him, every resolve he's ever had turns to ash. When a flickering kitchen light gives them an excuse to be alone, the tension that's been building for months finally has nowhere left to go. My Stepbrother Shares is a scorching forbidden romance set against the backdrop of family dinners, dangerous silences, and a chemistry so electric it leaves marks. Drake is all controlled restraint and barely leashed want, a man who builds things with his hands and takes care of the people he loves, even when loving them means keeping his distance. Marie is sharp-tongued, fearless, and more self-aware than she lets on, a woman who knows exactly what she wants and hates herself a little for wanting it. They're not naive about the consequences. The family they'd upend. The lines they can't uncross. But wanting someone this much has a way of making consequences feel abstract, and Sunday dinners feel like slow torture. What starts as a house call becomes the beginning of something neither of them can pretend away... and the longer they try, the hotter it burns. When Drake's friends get involved, all bets are off. If you love alpha heroes with soft centers, heroines who give as good as they get, and the specific tension of wanting something you absolutely should not have, My Stepbrother Shares will keep you up well past your bedtime. Forbidden. Inevitable. Unforgettable.
