Stepbrother Dearest

De: Penelope Ward

Narrado por: Andi Arndt, Christian Fox

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.

WOW

I have lost count of how many books I’ve read, but this is by far my favorite. From the first chapter to the epilogue, the narrators, and the story itself-JUST WOW. AMAZING!

Soooo good

One of my favorite reads in a long time Christian Fox melts me with his voice.

Great Story/Awesome Narration

Emotional heartbreaking story/narration. Sexy scenes. Wish all romance books were in duet form…. Just brings the story to life. Loved HIS perspective through his autobiography toward the end. New fav male narration.

Wow wow wow

The narrators were amazing! The story was even better. What a wonderful story. A must listen!

love duet narrations

I loved this book, the narrators did a great job! My only dislike was MMC calling his mother, "mommy" I get it when they do flashbacks to childhood scenes, but at 25 and still calling her mommy.... I don't know why it just gave me an 'ick'. Other than that it was a great listen.

Oh My God

I’m not gonna lie this book had me so mad but I was sucked in from the start. The first part had me on edge. I understood they were teenagers and you know ego, pride, and self esteem gets in the way. But the second part, the second part angered me. I was stuck on the “have some self respect part” and kept repeating it in my head. One key plot point was a no no for me but I’m glad he owned up but I would still have doubts after because “how you get em is how you lose them” and all that. I loved the ending though. I was praying for plot holes to be filled and they were and that’s all I could ever ask for in a book. Overall I loved this book. It had me frustrated, heartbroken, giggling, and swooning.

A doesn’t matter who you are in the family love is love

This book was amazing from the beginning to the end. You never know what’s going on in a person‘s life until it happens. Thank you for sharing your story with us.🫶🏾

I loved this story

so many emotions tied up in this story. a love like no other for sure. Narration is absolutely perfect. it definitely brings this story to a whole different level of good. HEA and some really emotional moments.

Forbidden Love Never Sounded So Good!

Andi Arndt is an amazing narrator.

Christian Fox nailed it.

This is the first dual narration that I've listen to and it was so beautifully done.

The inflections and the way they giggled or reacted to each other made you feel like you were in the room with them.

when they would do a dramatic pause, I was holding my breath.

The story came to life with this narration.

When Elek O'Rork came to stay with his father and his new family at the age of 17, he planned to make his life miserable.

Greta was also 17 and was the daughter of his father's new wife that she had in a previous marriage.

Elek tried to hate her but the attraction was so strong it was impossible.

They had one night together, Greta's first, and then he had to leave to go back and take care of his mom.

Seven years later they would meet up again for his dad's funeral and wild see things between them hadn't really changed except now Elek was in a relationship with Chelsea and he loved her.

As feelings warred between them, Elek has to make a decision, the right one.

Someone he loved was going to get hurt no matter what he chose to do.

this story is everything

Andi is definitely a favorite but Christian. Holy wow. Please excuse me while I go order all books narrated by him. He certainly did the character justice. His character was so endearing. I must say. Best mmc ever. You will feel all the emotions. The characters are so genuine. I felt like I was truly there. I wasn't expecting this book to be so heartfelt with an amazing storyline but am more than happy! Don't pass this one by!!
