Handy Man: A Milky Surprise Romance Story

It’s bad enough that he’s my stepbrother—and that I’ve been crushing on him for years.
That’s why we have a nothing inside. Only touch.
It's the only way to keep things from getting out of hand.

But when my mom announces Ben is coming back for her big New Year’s Eve party, I tell myself it’s harmless that I want more. After all, he's been gone forever. And he won’t even be around next year. One night. One kiss. One all the way fantasy we’ve both been pretending not to want because it's so, so taboo.

It’s New Year’s Eve. Who says my stepbrother can’t be my midnight kiss?

What I don’t expect is how little he believes in just one time.
Or how, when we wake up in the new year and I’m sore, full, and he gets a creamy taste—that he’ll start talking about forever.

Suddenly it seems as if “new year, new me” means I might belong completely to the most forbidden man in my life.
