Secrets & Growing Feelings For Her Stepbrother
Lucy has been kicked out of college and she’s keeping it a secret from her and her stepfather and stepbrothers – in fact, she has to go to court because of the incident! So life is not looking good for her at all. Of her two stepbrothers Josh is the good, dependable one and she needs to try and project a good impression to her mum after what has happened so she hangs around with him. Daniel, on the other hand, is the bad boy and dare devil of the two and has an awful ex girlfriend who keeps cropping up – unfortunately. The twins have a party of their dad’s yacht and Daniel invites Lucy but she plays safe and goes with Josh to keep out of trouble – even though she is very attracted to Daniel. He dares her to jump off the yacht like the others and she does and swims to shore and this is when Daniel follows her and they share an unforgettable kiss. I did enjoy this short story and because it was a short tale some points didn’t seem to make sense [the sudden unrequited love] and some timings were just ‘off’. However, I didn’t let that detract from the fact that it was an entertaining read – just ‘go with the flow’ – it’s fiction. I must confess that I was concerned about what had happened at college for her to be kicked out [as certainly here in the UK it is rather extreme to be kicked out of university and then to end up in court is virtually unheard of – I can only think of a murder case but the US must be different in their college rulings]. Anyway, I liked the characters [well obviously not Daniel’s ex] but they were realistic, mostly, and it was a fun read. I also look forward to reading more of Nicky Harmony’s stories.
