Blurb
SWIPE LEFT.
That's
all I did. A few too many glasses of wine with my best friend and the bitch
convinced me to go on one of those dating websites.
A
one-night stand.
A booty
call.
And you
know what? It.was.amazing.
I spent
all night in a sexy stranger's arms, hot and sweaty, until it was time to sneak
out and do the walk of shame back to my apartment.
I never
thought I'd see sexy stranger again, and I was totally fine with that - until
my mother's wedding.
She's
getting remarried, see. And sexy stranger just happens to be my new
stepbrother.
All the
wine in the world isn't going to make this better.
Excerpts (Use as
many or as few as you like)
EXCERPT ONE
I’m reaching for a
napkin when I see that Jai is on the other side of the table, helping himself
to a generous portion of the oysters.
“You know what they say about
oysters,” he says. I pretend I didn’t hear him, but when I look over, he’s
staring right at me.
“What?” I hiss. “You think
you’re being clever? You think you’re going to impress me with that totally
unoriginal line, like I’ve never heard that oysters are an aphrodisiac? That’s
not why I took some—I happen to like how they taste very much and as a poor
college student, I can’t afford to eat like this!”
He’s still staring. At my chest.
Then the smirk returns. “Might want to pull up that dress, Janet Jackson.”
“What?” I look down. My left
breast has completely popped out of the top of the dress, my nipple there on
full display for anyone who happens to be looking. “Shit!” I try to stuff
myself back in the dress, dropping the plate of salad and oysters in the
process. “Fuck!”
“You know, they’ve got things
you can paste on in these sorts of situations.” He reaches over and picks up
the wayward oysters and puts them back on my plate.
“I’m not eating those,” I say.
“I need to talk to you.”
I wriggle my shoulders and try
to get myself as secure in the dress as I can before I hurry around to the
other side of the buffet table. “I need to talk to you over here.” We go to the
back of the restaurant, near the hallway to the bathroom, and I strategically
place myself behind one of the columns that keeps us partially obscured from
the rest of the restaurant.
“Imagine meeting you here,” Jai
says, a slow grin spreading across his face. “I really had no idea. No idea at
all. I knew I was going to be getting some stepsisters out of this blessed
union, but I really had no clue—”
“Are you fucking kidding me? You
expect me to believe that? You’re a fucking dog. A total fucking asshole.”
“I really do like the scarf. And
the dress, too. You should’ve left the tit out. You’ve got great tits, you
know.”
“I do NOT want to talk about my
tits!”
“That’s certainly not the tune
you were singing last night.”
“Do you realize how not funny
this is? What a complete disaster
this is? OUR PARENTS ARE GETTING MARRIED. That means we’re going to be brother
and sister.”
“Step brother and sister. There’s a difference, darling.”
EXCERPT
TWO
He brings his hand up and starts
to touch my hip but I slap his arm away.
“Don’t touch me!”
He looks at me
intensely. “You know you want me to.” His voice is low, a cross between a
whisper and a growl. “You know you’d like nothing more than for me to take you
right here, rip that tiny fucking dress off of you, and fuck you senseless. You
know you want that. And so do I.”
