Stepbrother Inked: A Bad Boy Stepbrother Romance (English Edition)

Forbidden love shouldn’t feel so good.

It also shouldn’t hurt so much.

How could the one person I can’t have be the only person I truly need?

Florian Harper Riley has my heart and he doesn’t even know it. I used to think that was okay, that I’d get over him, but no matter how hard I try, I can’t purge his sharp green gaze from my thoughts.

This is a 98,000 word, full length stand-alone novel from debut author Violet Blaze (and it’s hot!)

I stood up, my bare feet hitting the floor with a slap and t
