My Review:
The Other Brother is a story told in three parts. After reading part one, Forbidden, I’m looking forward to clearing time in my schedule for part two, Taboo. The “new, hot, and popular thing” in books these days is the “out of bounds” relationships between step-siblings, and there are some really well written ones out there, and some that I had to put down. This is one of the better ones out there…and I found myself happily disturbed throughout parts…
Why disturbed? Well, there were parts that gave me that “Ut-Oh” feeling…you know the feeling, when something just feels off… the creepy perverted old man staring at you or the kidnapper about to capture you feeling that your parents, Officer White, and your teachers warned you about in grade school. Yeah, I felt that in this book…but not where you think I may have felt the icks.
Allegra is a red-haired, high school girl in the first part of Forbidden. She’s not quite 16 years old yet… and lives with her older brother, Theo, her dad and stepmom. Enter Seth, the stepbrother she didn’t know she has, who happens to move in with her and her family. Seth is 4 years older (already, hot!)… not only are they step-siblings, but I love an age difference! Allegra has the hots for Seth, Seth has the hots for Allegra, but they don’t know how the other feels, because they KNOW they can’t act on their feelings. So the buildup and chemistry is pretty great between these two. I’m rooting for them. Seth does these little things for Allegra that wets the panties and makes me swoon. So why did I feel the icks AND the swoons?
The icks came from the character Theo… yep, Allegra’s “real” brother. There’s just that “ut-oh” vibe about him…and I can’t wait to explore the icks with the hotness.
Part one ends years after an incident sends Seth far, far away when fate intertwines and Allegra and Seth’s paths cross again. And boy is it OFF. THE. CHARTS. HOT. Part two, Taboo, is currently available, and Part three, Illicit, is out soon!
You like the popular forbidden romance? You’ll love Seth and Allegra!
