The Step Don't (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781950261192)

ASH

All stepbrothers need Step Don'ts.

Colin and I have ours.

Like, don't pit our parents against either of us. Don't hog the TV. And definitely...

Don't.

Keep.

Secrets.

These rules have done more than help us keep the peace between us.

After all these years since our parents got together, I can't imagine my life without Colin.

To most people, he's the hot, straight tight end for Peach State.

But to me, he's my backward-cap-wearing, football-loving, piggyback-ride-giving best friend and fellow Alpha Theta Mu frat bro.

Life's pretty incredible living together at the same frat house, but suddenly, I find myself keeping a particularly naughty secret.

I tell myself Colin wouldn't want to know what his bi bro does in private, but then why do I feel like I'm committing a huge Step Don't?

COLIN

There's nothing I'm more of an expert in than my stepbro, Ash.

He's a quick-witted, nerd-boy genius who's always there to help a friend cram for a test or capture bugs for me when they invade my space.

He's my favorite person.

Making him happy gives me a rush...but for the first time, he's keeping a secret from me.

When Ash cops to his Step Don't-his new extracurricular of doing dirty things on camera-I'm confused.

He is too, so we work together to figure out why this excites him so much.

In places we're likely to get caught.

After all, what's a little exhibitionism between stepbros?

I didn't even realize I could be into guys-or be so intoxicated by these new experiences-but exploring my bisexuality with Ash is the best thing that's ever happened to me.

And with each touch, each time we up the stakes, I discover I want more than just Ash's body.

I want his heart too, even though that surely must be the biggest Step Don't of all.
