Wanting My Stepsister

Review: Wanting my Stepsister - Alexa Riley - November 2016


One thing about Alexa Riley is that despite most of her books having either a suggestive cover or title, she has two categories that her books can fall in. She either has the overly sexual books like her Trailer Park Virgin which was pure smut or books like Paid For which still had sexual content but a bit more romantic gestures are happening, and it had a softer tone to the level of sex.  I had assumed that Wanting my Stepsister would be more Trailer Park than Paid For, but I got a surprise when I read this book as it was far tamer than I had assumed. This book introduces us to Libby Moore who has just finished high school and is trying to decide what to do next; we also learn that ever since she started to notice boys she has only ever loved one guy - her stepbrother Jasper. He arrives back for a few days, and it turns out he feels the same about her, and so of course, you can guess what happens - they get it on secretly as they don't want their parents knowing. This I thought was pointless as the parents will find out eventually and guess what - the parents were onto it and wanted them together and there was no judgment. This was not your usual OMG I'm having sex with my stepsister, and it's so Taboo book, but more of an Alicia Silverstone/Paul Rudd romance in the movie Clueless.
Wanting my Stepsister is one of those books that I think readers will only read and enjoy if you are an Alexa Riley fan and wanting to make sure you read all her titles -like myself as I make my way through her books.

Review: Steel Princess - Book #2 Royal Elite Series - Rina Kent - December 2019 At the end of Book #1, we were left on a cliffhanger of Elsa being pushed into the pool. At the beginning of book #2, she is saved by a newcomer to the school - Knox.  We can see some friendly flirting but nothing more going on between these two, but it riles up Aiden who still has this mindset of "if I can't have her, no-one can" especially since he is supposed to be engaged to Silver Queens. During Book #2 Elsa starts to recall some more memories and goes to Dr.Khan in hopes that he can open her Pandora's box and can restore her full memories of what happened before she was seven years old. We also catch a glimpse during this book of her past and why Aiden King's father blames her for his mother's death and why Aiden considered Elsa a ghost. I liked this book as it was more intense with Elsa's memories and past returning. In Book #2 it is revealed about he...

  Review: Punk 57 - Penelope Douglas - October 2016 As soon as I read Bully by Penelope Douglas, I was in love with this author. So when she released a new one who had my favorite theme of penpals and that whole friend to lovers going on, I knew I had to read it. The book started out with a bit of background where we learned about how Misha and Ryen were placed together in a classroom project penpal program. The pair continues to write to each other right through the year, and then they take it to the next level and continue through the rest of their schooling. Fast forward to high school Misha is in a band and Ryen is out with her friends and they complete a scavenger hunt form. Ryen is not what Misha expected especially from her letters. Tragedy occurs, and Misha turns up at Ryen's school under a fake name. This doesn't go over too well as Ryen is nothing like her letters, in fact, she is as fake as can be and Misha aka Masen hates her, in fact, she...
