Resumen del Editor

TROY

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?

Not a chance.

But if he's so confident he's gonna win...well, my big stepbro must not know me as well as he thinks...

ATLAS

I love getting under Troy's skin.

Mr. Former Prom King. Mr. Heartthrob. Mr. Infuriatingly Perfect. Messing with him is too easy. Too fun. Maybe that's why I'm a little obsessed with him.

Our latest bet is the perfect way for me to test the bisexual waters, and once I dive headfirst into the deep end, I don't want to stop.

With Troy. My stepbro.

It was supposed to be just a little fun, yet with each touch, I like him more than I should. It wasn't supposed to go this far. Now I want Troy to be all mine.

But what we're doing has bigger consequences than our little step bet, and when the stakes are this high, is it worth gambling our hearts when we know this is a game we both could lose?

This is the first book in the Peach State Stepbros Series. It can be listened to as a standalone.

Trigger Warning: The Step Bet is a steamy romance, but one of the secondary characters struggles with addiction. This may act as a trigger for some listeners.

better than expected!!! (spoils)

listen... I love a good step situation and this hit all the marks for me. i really enjoyed it. it had me squealing with some parts. it reminded me of another book i loved a lot and the guys made bets all the time. it made me smile a lot!

i ESPECIALLY loved the mom. she's a rockstar and deserves the world. and as someone with a drug addict brother, this hit home hard. he doesn't contact me unless he's in trouble or needs money. it's so hard bc you just want to be there for them but you also can't let it hurt you. i felt so much for troy 💔

Love the differences between MC

I think one of the things I enjoyed about this book is every time I thought I saw a plot twist coming it did but was never what I was expecting. I loved both MC and the complicated backstory. I also really enjoy Tim Paige’s voice. His character distinction may not be as obvious in his voices I enjoy it enough not to care.

Great story!

5/5☀️ 3.5.5🌶️
Great story, low angst. Step brothers who fall in love. The chemistry is exceptional between the two and the 🌶️ scenes are great.

Outstanding

A must hear , this is a beautiful love story. They never thought they would be lovers, but since freshman year , they were both in love with each other.

Such fun banter

This was such a great story with fun banter! I loved the narration. Although it was hard to differentiate between the characters at times, the narration overall was great. I felt the emotions from them all and it really brought the story to life. It was my first read of the story itself and sooooo much fun! I can’t wait to read the next one.

Absolutely loved it!

First of all, a big THANK YOU to the authors for taking the time to describe Atlas exactly as the gorgeous model on the cover. So many times, covers don’t match the descriptions whatsoever which is distracting to me. Secondly, the way you wove the name Atlas into Troy’s thoughts about him was unique and meaningful. Thirdly, it was refreshing to have a single narrator (who did a great job!) which avoided the a disconnect that can happen when it’s not a true duet narration. Lastly, the story was sexy, sweet, and so worth the credit.

Really good narration.

Makes me think of when my husband and I met. Hot steamy, confusing. I see myself in Atlas, and that’s both scary and riveting. I think I want a tattoo… under my left peck now…

Wow - this just made me happy

I was lately a bit unhappy with some of my choices finding them a little lame. This one had a nice combination of characters, story and banter. Good chemistry too. It worked for me. And the narration was great.

Worth a Listen

I love how this one doesn't have a lot of relationship angst. There's no will they, won't they drama and no doubt to the strength of their relationship. If you want a sweet but steamy happily ever after, give this one a try. Also, I can't wait until the next one is released.

great story bad voice

story was fun but the way the ready turns up the last syllable of every sentence is almost unbearable
