About this listen
I shouldn't want him the way that I do…
Tyler
My world flipped upside down when my Dad suddenly remarried. What ten-year-old wants that surprise dropped on him? I wasn't expecting my stepbrother to become my best friend, my everything, and the source of my utter confusion. I didn't realize he was hiding something from me, and I didn't mean to see it. It made me question everything.
Garrett
As close as we'd become over the last nine years, I never meant to hide my biggest secret from Tyler. I didn't want our relationship to change. What would he think if he knew I always imagined him in their place? Now that he knows the truth, how am I supposed to handle him being so curious?

Story
I always thought of Silas Rush as my biggest rival on the track and a stuck-up loner off of it. He and his fancy pro career left our crappy hometown in the dust before high school even finished, and then I didn't think of him much at all. I was too busy trying to keep my little sisters from turning into addicts like our mom, and myself from turning into a rage-junkie like our dad. All while keeping food on the table. Now he's back, reminding me of all the things I don't have, just like he always did.

This year is my last chance to take the Titans to victory. I cost us the cup last year, but I'm not making the same mistake again. And I'm determined to get drafted by the end of this season. The success I anticipate is built on three years of razor-sharp focus and hard-earned respect. Not to mention how much of my personal life I sacrificed for hockey. The Titans trust me to lead them and I won't betray that. Nothing could possibly go wrong. Until the former love of my life and current arch nemesis, Cameron Martinez, skates back into my life.

Having to share a room with the one man I let hurt me is my worst nightmare. I’m the broken shell of the boy he walked away from on the worst day of my life. I hate him almost as much as I hate myself.

After giving twelve years of my life to the service, I didn't just lose my leg. I lost everything, including my career. When the dust settled, the only person still standing by my side in the rubble was Brandt—the single lifeline I had left to a world I didn't want to live in anymore. With painstaking care, he healed my body and my mind. When he eventually started healing my heart, I realized I didn't just need him in my life, I needed him in ways I'd never wanted him before.

Nicholas Theodoropoulos had been my stepbrother since I was fourteen. Mom died when I was twelve, and I resented Dad remarrying so soon. Even worse, my stepbrother had grown into a gorgeous man. I hated looking at him, reminding me every day of what I could never have. No one knew I was gay and never would. But when my best friend backed out of our road trip to California, Dad forced me to travel with my stepbrother. It was the only way if I wanted to go on this journey I’d been planning since middle school. Nothing good would come out of this.

Sometimes I want to punch that smirk off Atlas McCallister's pretty face. He's cocky. A troublemaker. A pain. And, unfortunately, my stepbrother. We've been fire and kerosene since our parents got together, and to keep from exploding into fistfights, we've used challenges, dares, and bets to battle out our differences. Our past bets have been a little inappropriate—scandalous, even—but Atlas's latest bet has gone too far. Do I really believe if he loses, my straight stepbrother is gonna mess around with a guy? And not just any guy: me, his rival and nemesis?

It's official: my step bro is the biggest himbo ever to himbo. He's a massive blond beefcake with a soft heart and an over-eager smile. The mere sight of him incites a shaking hot rage in me. He's everywhere. He's around me all the time. So sweet and gentle that it makes me feel wild. I see him and smell him everywhere. When I can't see him or smell him, I hear him. The wall between our bedrooms is paper thin. I can't help it—I hear what he does in his room when he thinks he's alone. I hear everything.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

Is it wrong that I watch him? Leif Anderson seems like a friendly, kind, normal, boy-next-door type. Unlike me. His stalker, a creep who moved into the place next to his parents’ house to keep an eye on him. I’m not the bad guy, though. I’m the one who will protect him. The cops don’t believe he’s in danger. Maybe they’re right, and this is all in my messed-up head. I’ve been wrong before. And no matter how I justify this to myself, my motives aren’t entirely pure.

Step brother romance
This audio is really good. I read the book previously and still enjoy the story. Step brothers is one of my favorite tropes. Tyler and Garrett are great together and I enjoyed them both. I liked how the relationship developed and that they were really close the whole time. There is one scene though that kept it from 5 stars. One of the MCs acts weird during a scene, to the point it is mentioned repeatedly in the other’s POV and it never really gets explained. Still a really great, steamy listen.
Oliver Williams is a new to me narrator and I enjoyed his voices and narration. It all seemed very natural and kept me engaged. It did have a slight, I don’t think echo-y, is quite right, quality to the sound. The story and narration otherwise got me engrossed in the story and I stopped noticing.
I can’t wait for more audio from both Joelle and Oliver.

My favorite book of Joelle’s!
Great narration by Oliver Williams.
This is my favorite book of Joelle’s. I love a stepbrother trope and this is a great one!
Garrett and Tyler have always been close as stepbrothers, and everyone thinks it’s something more. They’ve always just been best friends and done everything together, but never anything more. When Tyler catches Garrett in a compromising position, it’s the first time he sees him in this new light. Though both of them know this could be a horrible idea, they can’t stay away from each other. Steamy first times, sweet moments, and experimenting galore ensue, and the boys manage to keep things quiet. Until a jealous hook-up turns nasty, and Tyler and Garrett are forced to decide if this just an experiment or the real thing.

Great Story
I haven’t ever read this book so I went into this audio not knowing the story at all. I loved the story, the slightly forbidden. The narration was really good as well. One person doing two voices takes talent!
