“I love you,” I tell him as he walks inside the stadium’s tunnel entrance.

“I love you too,” he whispers, the long shadows inside the tunnel wrapping themselves around us.

Happy endings - the hype is real.

Description

Does it seem like every girl in romance is doing their stepbrother?

I mean, if they look anything like my stepbrother I can’t blame them.

Tall and muscular - with the ripped body of a Greek God that you could just lick from the top of his head to the tip of his…uhmm…you know.

Taboo just became even more tempting.

Oh right, lets add the last piece of the puzzle.

We’re both stuck inside the same house for the weekend with no one else.

Goodbye, clear head.

Hello, bad decisions!

*** It’s the cute single girl versus the Sinful Stepbrother in this fifth installment from Mona Cox. Guaranteed to be sweet, steamy, sassy, and fun. No cheating or cliffhangers. HEA? You know it, babe! ***

“Derek told me yesterday that we were going to Vienna next month while he bought some country or something," Alicia says to the table. "But I guess they had a coup so we're not anymore."

There are a few murmurs of concern and it's pretty clear no one knows what Alicia just said. Derek tries his hardest to not roll his eyes.

"Babe, I was supposed to go to Vietnam to give a lecture on how to do business in other countries, but it ended up getting cancelled because we're going on a cruise," he tells her. "How much were you drinking last night when I was talking about this?"

"Just one cosmo," she says, blinking her large eyes at him trying to look innocent.

But that makes a lot more sense now the way Derek said it. I can't help but smile. Despite the fact that Alicia has the ability to sometimes just act like a total Valley Girl and an airhead, I still love her so much. And I guess Derek makes her so happy.

Actually the two of them are really cute together. She's a classic, cute, and he's a strong, dominating influence. But you can tell she totally has him wrapped around her finger. I doubt if Derek even realizes the extent to which Alicia has him under her spell.

"I can't believe you were thinking of going to Vietnam!" Ashley says with a squeal. She turns to her SO. "Why can't you send me somewhere awesome like that, Apollo?" she asks.

Apollo doesn't say much when it's a large group of us. I don't know if it's because he's shy or if it's because he just views us all with contempt.

But let me take that back.

I'm pretty sure from everything I've seen he is totally into Ash, so I don't think he views us with contempt.

I think what happens is that he's just not sure what to make of Ashley. Like Alicia, even though they've been dating and are so in love, he just doesn't understan

d what to make of her sometimes. I mean, you gotta think about it like this. Apollo Kane is this billionaire titan. And the same goes with Derek who is this major player on Wall Street.

Both of these men are towering figures.

But these wispy lil' women with their Prada shoes and Louis Vuitton handbags, their La Perla lingerie and their Mac lipstick, their Sephora perfume, and their Forever 21 skirts basically just buzz around them like a little bird flies around a giant.

Time to time, they come into contact and apparently sex happens. You listen to both of my friends and they'll tell you that they have these giant monster orgasms where, I dunno, they see God or whatevs.
