My Sexy Stepbrother is a Werebear

My Sexy Stepbrother is a Werebear

Kelly Lord

My sexy-ass stepbrother is going to be the death of me.

When my mom decided to marry his hillbilly dad, I was pissed.

I mean, their woodsy cabin doesn’t even have Wi-Fi. Not kidding.

But then I actually met my new stepbrother, Sam. And fuck… He’s totally hot. And into me.

Which is totally gross. Even if his abs are to die for. And his smile is amazing. And he’s good with his hands. And who am I kidding? He’s an adonis.

It’s no surprise that, after our parents’ wedding, we slipped up and ended up making out on the living room floor. Now I’m screwed. I’m addicted to his sculpted body.

And that was before I learned his furry secret.

Who would have known the beast between his legs wasn’t the only surprise in store?

Holly Prange

A man in all black strikes down and kills one of the innocent, packless men in front of him. I make a flying leap to attack, when I’m hit with an overwhelming scent of vanilla and citrus.

"Mate!" My wolf yells in my head.

What is happening? The unknown man who had been my target spins to face me. We are mere centimeters apart and pain explodes through my stomach. I look down to find a black hilt sticking out of me and crimson spreading out around it. The man drops his hand from the dagger and I look up to meet his eyes. And then everything goes black.

B. D. Vyne

“What are you doing in my forest?” he asked, glaring into the car.

My husband opened his mouth, but the man snarled at him. “Not you. Her…”

“We’re lost,” I admitted, locking eyes with the man.

For some reason, once I started looking at him, I couldn’t look away.

He leaned forward, his nostrils flaring as he inhaled my perfume. Then his eyes flashed suddenly gold.

“On the contrary, human. You’ve just been found.”

When Brooke and her sick husband stumble across a desolate forest town on a road trip, she feels strangely drawn to its leader, Slate. But Slate has a secret: He is a werewolf and her long-lost mate. Will Brooke choose loyalty to her husband, or will she fall for the home-wrecking alpha?
