Unacceptable: A Step-Brother Romance Review

Unacceptable: A Step-Brother Romance by Kristen Hope Mazzola
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book was interesting. I am not all that big on step-brother books. But, in this book they didn’t even know they were step-siblings until after they had already done the deed. The blood relation and Abel was 18 before Crickett’s dad married his mom. So they are more like to random people than siblings of any kind. Crickett’s dad left her a long time ago and she thinks that he just abandoned her. She only got one letter from him in all those years claiming that he loved her and wanted her to be with him however that never happened. Crickett has had enough of her drug addicted whore of a mother and realized maybe her dad had the right idea when he left. She is taking all her uncashed paycheck and her tips and leaving. She is going to Vilas, where the one letter she got from her father came from. He probably isn’t there anymore but it as good as any place to start over and maybe try to find him. Crickett finally gets to Valis after 12 hours of driving. She is tired, hungry, and thirsty. She stops at this little bar and immediately notices she is the only female in this place plus a lot of the guys are wearing biker cuts. She winds up being told to come back a little later and that she might have a job at said bar. So she does. That is when she meets Abel. There is just something about him. He is hot for sure; tattooed, muscled, and so much more. They have an instant spark. It doesn’t take long before Abel shows her a different side of himself and she can’t fight her feeling for him anymore; so much for taking it slow. I felt so bad for Crickett. She really did get the shit end of the stick growing up. Her mother was a drug addicted whore just looking for her next fix. Then when she finally gets away and finds a man she can fall in love with her turns out to be her step-brother. This book made me laugh and times though. The guys in the club are pretty funny sometimes. Overall I really liked the book and would recommend it to others. I really like Kristen Hope Mazzola and love her books. This one was no different.
