About this listen

THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER THAT STARTED A PHENOMENON...with all-new DUET narration!

A COMPLETE STANDALONE.

You’re not supposed to want the one who torments you.

When my stepbrother, Elec, came to live with us my senior year, I wasn’t prepared for how much of a jerk he’d be.

I hated that he took it out on me because he didn’t want to be here.

I hated that he brought girls from our high school back to his room.

But what I hated the most was the unwanted way my body reacted to him.

At first, I thought all he had going for him were his rock-hard tattooed abs and chiseled face.

But things started changing between us, and it all came to a head one night.

Then, just as quickly as he’d come into my life, he was gone back to California.

It had been years since I’d seen Elec.

When tragedy struck our family, I’d have to face him again.

And holy hell, the teenager who made me crazy was now a man that drove me insane.

I had a feeling my heart was about to get broken again.

So good!

I read/listened to this book once before and decided to relisten with the duet narrators. I'm so glad I did! I forgot how good the story is and how much I love the characters. The story grabs your attention and makes it impossible to put the book down! The narrators did a phenomenal job with bringing the characters to life! I love this story and certainly recommend it.

Very enjoyable! Easy read with good spice.

Really disliked the MMC until the second half of the book. What a jerk. And the FMC was way too accommodating. A twist towards the end was a surprise. Overall worth the credit and will read more from this author.

So good

It started off a little cringe because I couldn’t get past the step brother sister theme but it became so interesting. I loved the banter it ended so good. If you can get past the first part you will love it.

No words…

Read the book. But the audio version left me speechless. The emotion in the narrators was felt. I laughed. I cried. And cried some more. It was like I was in the story. One of my top 5 listens and reads!

Angsty and Fantastic!

The audiobook is duet style. Andi Arndt and Christian Fox both brought the heart as they voiced Greta and Elec. Even listening to Stepbrother Dearest a second time, broke my heart for the same characters!

Captivating Storyline!

These two narrators had me living the story; Andi Arndt & Christian Fox were fabulous as Greta & Elec!

I found this story thrilling from inception, but the twists & turns it took to resolution were genius. Both voices were so soothing to listen to on the journey.

Several comments: Elec’s multiple face & body piercings, along with multiple tattoos, do not translate to a sexy, hot, bad boy for me; good thing he had a heart of gold.

I could have enjoyed the story just fine without Sully being a cross dresser - why not just a sweet, close friend?

So as not to include spoilers - toward the end, a certain earlier chapter from the book was repeated almost verbatim, except from a different person’s perspective- why???? Surely a synopsis with added perspective would have served.

I so enjoyed this listen, & definitely recommend it.

My favorite book and audible hands down 100%

I first read this book in Galatea. I cried and looked up paramore and cried some more this book hits you and your heart. See not many find a true love and gets to stay together for those who do they are truly blessed.

I then hear this story in Audible but it was a female narrator and funny thing is I remember saying I’d love to have a male narrator duet/dual.

When this Audible came out and I checked I was floored and so excited two of my favorite narrators Christian Fox and Andi Arndt, are amazing he’s my favorite all time and of course I cried again and fell in love with this story all over again.
