Roommates: A Stepbrother Romance

Soulmates Series, Book 1

By: Hazel Kelly

Narrated by: C.J. Mission, Meg Sylvan

Ethan's been avoiding his stepsister since their parents got married, but when she shows up at his apartment uninvited, he realizes her absence has only made his heart grow fonder....

Jenny: I always liked him. But when our parents got married, things got confused. As if being a teenager isn't confusing enough. All I knew was that the feelings I had for him weren't okay.

I’ll never forget the anxiety I felt the night I ran into him at a party that had gotten out of control. I saw him standing around with the popular kids as soon as I walked in the door. And he saw me, too. He always saw me. It was talking to me that he avoided.

I watched his buddy spin an empty wine bottle on the butcher block, while my friend Brandi rummaged in her oversized purse for the two bottles of hard lemonade her older sister gave us. When the spinning bottle stopped, I realized everyone was staring at me.

“Looks like you’ve gotta kiss Jen,” some jock said to Ethan.

I felt the color drain from my face, taking the moisture in my mouth with it as a suffocating panic grew in my chest. I was going to be found out.

Ethan laughed it off. “Yeah, that’s not happening. She’s my sister.”

“Not really, though,” his buddy insisted.

The eruption of laughter and jeering sounds made the dim kitchen feel like a jungle full of predators, and I was sure my cheeks were going to burst into flames.

“Don’t be stupid,” Ethan said, tilting a can of beer over his mouth.

When his friend spun the bottle again, Ethan glanced back at me one more time and wiped the back of his hand across his lips.

I’ve been wondering what it would be like to kiss him ever since.

Author's note: This is a full-length stand-alone romance novel with no cliff-hanger and no cheating. It is intended for a mature audience and has an ending that will leave you smiling so hard it hurts.

Sweet story

Nothing forbidden about love between non related siblings. this is a sweet romance that has some pretty hot sex scenes. well worth the credit and your time to listen.

Taboo love kinda

Ethan has always had a thing for his step sister and secretly protects her before being shipped off to bordering school. Years later when Jenny arrives at Ethan’s apartment unannounced is when this book really begins. Loved this book and listened to the audiobook which was well cast with two new to me narrators. Both who handled both POVs very well. I enjoyed this audiobook and wish to check out more from CJ and Meg as well as more books by Hazel Kelly.

So happy this was the choice for the book of the month in our book club. Well worth the credit spent.

Must have

Total surprise! Hilarious, hot as hell, and just a must have in your library. Their trip to the party had me rolling.

This has to be one of the sweetest

This is certainly one of the sweeter step brother stories. The parents were expecting it, they didn't really have a blow up, the small morning after one that was resolved rather quickly. I was waiting for something bigger to happen but it never did. Stories with not much drama are great every now and then. Good to cleanse the emotional palette.

Great story

This was a Great story. Great narration. The Character development was awesome. Great love story
