My ARC Review of Stepbrother Bad Boy's Baby by Lauren Landish
Julian is a bad boy. He has a father who goes thru women like their water and
Julian dislikes this. He has acted out due to this and gets into a lot of
trouble. Now his father is marrying again to a woman named Sandra and he has a
new step sister named Krystal.-WHOA when Julian sees her he almost doesn’t try
any funny lines on her. But he falls back on his tried and true lines. Krystal
understands because she sees he is angry and insecure inside over things with
his father and acts out. There is attraction between them. But Julian wants to
pay back his father for how he treated his mother so he wants to hurt his
father’s new wife who will ultimately hurt his father and what better way to do
that than seduce her daughter.
He starts a few days prior to the wedding trying to get her into bed, doesn’t work, at the wedding, he tries but doesn’t work so he starts working on others close to his new step mommy and lands her sister in law, Gina & Krystal’s aunt . The way he sees it, anyway he can get to his new step mommy works for him & also Krystal “wasn’t coming along quick “enough to suit him.
Fast forward 6 weeks later, he flies to Chicago and ends up securing a invite to stay with Krystal . They end up having a sort of tiff and he realizes that he is possibly in love with her. He tries to win her affections and that didn’t go over well at her work where she is a chef in training. She is in some Iron Chef competition. He made up for it and they spent a terrific night together getting to know each other. There was a sudden twist toward the end and then a sudden cliffhanger which I did not see coming. There will be a book 2 .
Julian at first made me not like him. He came off as cocky but there is a lot of pain behind him. Krystal I liked-she had spunk and she was a very sweet woman. I was hoping for alittle more to happen before the sudden stop to the book but I can understand. I also would have like to have seen more passion between the characters than what was in this book. It seemed more tame than in her other books. Otherwise, this was a great book1 and I CANNOT wait for book 2.
My rating: 4.4 stars ****
