Stepbrother Dearest

Lets start of with me drooling over the guy on the cover. Yum. Okay enough staring. I've been waiting for what feels like forever to read this book. There were some complications while waiting, in other words the first time around it got lost. But I finally has it. So none of that waiting matters. Also I'd like to say that I have no idea what the book is about. Which it becoming a huge habit of mine. Oh well. It makes me get that much more into the book because I don't know anything. But I'm going to read this book and judging with how surprisingly small it is, I'll be done in a day. Then I can finally finish Breakable since I finally got that book back. Then I'll go back to reading Sign. So many books, so little time. So until next time......

 It kind of makes me sad on how fast I'm reading this book. And its during the holidays. By the way, happy holidays to everyone. I got a day of baking tomorrow to do and then a family dinner the day afterwards. Honestly I want to spend it with a certain someone but he rather stay on the coast. But he's spending time with family, so that is okay with me. I don't need much. Anyways, lets get talking about this book because we all know that I'm going to be highly sad when its over. So our story starts with our main lady, Greta, waiting for the arrival of her stepbrother Elec. Never seen those names before. Anyways, he finally arrives and you know that things are going to go down between these two. They start doing things as pranks, but I have to say that Elec kind of goes over the line a few times. Its to the point the guy is like flirting with her, he even kisses her. He also may have sabotaged a few dates that Greta went on. They then end up getting close to the point that well, they do the naughty. Sadly that moment didn't last long enough because he left the next day to never be seen again. Well until his father dies. So seven years our star crossed lovers are reunited. Only problem is that Elec seemed to have moved on and Greta hasn't. Elec has a new girlfriend that he met though work that he lives with and all. Greta is honestly a little uncomfortable with this information even when the girlfriend confines in her to talk about their sex life. Ouch. Of course the girlfriend leaves while Elec stayed behind. This is where things are about to get interesting. So until next time.....

The only reason why I finished this book was only because I couldn't put it down during the end. And I was right when I said that things were going to get interesting after Randy, the stepdad, died. Not only does Elec end up having a huge break down, but Greta comes in and saves him. Then they go to a casino and act ways they shouldn't. Especially Elec. Their parting was kind of heartbreaking, but Greta was right to leave things the way they were. It was also the great slap in the face for Elec. Now I will explain how I know this. Its because Elec was secretly writing behind his girlfriend's back and never mentioned it. He ended up sending the unfinished product to Greta. She ends up reading his book and finding about the things he has never told anyone. Like how Randy is actually his half brother. Shocker. That is highly explained on how that works out. Greta also didn't see it coming with that bit of news. Then she reads about how he felt when they were teenagers. How he had been doing since they parted ways. How he went after her only to find out that she was engaged. That part pretty much broke him and had him end up dating his girlfriend. When Greta finished reading the book, she pretty much assumed that he decided that he wanted to marry his girlfriend. So you can imagine her surprise when he randomly shows up at the club that she was at with some friends. Also the way he proposed to her is so sweet. The ending was pretty amazing. Also I think I can say that I pretty much fell in love with this book. Sadly the library doesn't have anymore Penelope Ward books, so  I can't read anymore of her books. I'd like to, but I guess I'll just have to wait when I can order it online for my personal library after my move out to the East Coast. But this book was so worth the waiting and complications that I had just to read it. So until next time......
