Steamy's Review

 Imagine liking the HOTTEST GUY in your mom's wedding, not only that the feeling is mutual, sparks fly for both of you, but just then you  are aware that there's a surprise waiting to be dropped on you both. What would you do?  

 Sophie is a very shy 16 year old who cares a lot what people think. As she grows older she is determined fight the feelings she has for this man

Logan is a 18 year old with a chip the size of Texas on his shoulder, and doesn't really care what anyone thinks about him until he meets Sophie

They become close over the years going through a tragic loss together leaning on Logan for some much needed  strength the feelings grow more and more. What she thought was a childhood crush turns into full adult lust. Can they get over wondering what everyone will think and follow their hearts or will others opinions get in the way of their happily ever after?

Stepbrother Mine is a story that will have you on an emotional roller-coaster. I'm pretty sure I experienced every emotion while reading this from anger to tears of joy.   The book truly takes you on a ride through the loss, the pain, betrayal, jealousy that this two feel towards each other, and the situations that affect each of their lives since they are teenagers all the way into their adult lives.

 I would highly recommend Stepbrother Mine, even though the situations that affect them are complicated and then this situations taking place along such an extensive period of time,Mandy Lou Dowson is amazing at making the story cohesive and easy to follow.

 Great job, well done on getting us feeling all the emotions the characters went through, that means it is writing at its best.  We recommend you buying this book, you all will enjoy it.

Author Bio

Mandy Lou Dowson was born and raised in a small town in Ireland, in 1983, and at this stage in life, she's pretty sure the town won't let her leave. Family is a huge deal to Mandy. She has three wonderful children (most of the time), and two Siberian Huskies who are each as naughty as the other – in fact, she's sure they egg each other on in silly cartoon voices when nobody is looking.

“Climb out the window and get covered in mud.”

“No, I did it last time.  You do it!”

“R'uh, r'oh, here SHE is.  Shhh.”

When she's not writing, reading, or plotting her next book -- or, you know, world domination – , she likes to relax with a few glasses of wine and some karaoke.  You can usually find her procrastinating on social media of some sort, chatting to fans and talking nonsense.
 
Mandy started reading at quite a young age and her appetite for the written word has only increased with time. It would not be at all surprising to find her reading anything and everything from shampoo bottles to Edgar Allan Poe.
 
She is the author of three different genres of romance books.  The Moon Bound series, which is in the Paranormal Romance genre, and is gathering rave reviews, and the Taboo series, which is Contemporary with a hint of the forbidden, the first of which has gathered very mixed reviews across the board, from one extreme to the other.

 She has also made a foray into Dark Romance recently, with her first title in the genre, Retribution, releasing in Summer 2015.
