Climax
Her British Stepbrother #3
by Lauren Smith
Release Date: May 3, 2016
Amazon / Barnes & Noble / Kobo / BAM
DESCRIPTION
A love so forbidden. A passion so undeniable . . .
It’s time for Kat to face the truth. She can’t resist sexy playboy Tristan–he’s too deliciously seductive, and much too good at making her melt, body and soul. With photographic proof plastered all over London, the whole world now knows she’s fallen for this British bad boy.
There’s just one problem. Their parents got married and now Tristan is her stepbrother. They shouldn’t be together, but Tristan always gets what he wants, and he wants her more than anything. Behind closed doors, this only makes every moment they spend together hotter, every kiss deeper, as the passion between them blazes higher . . .
REVIEW
5 out of 5 for this reader folks!
Amazing way to conclude another fantastic serial series. Climax, by Lauren Smith is the third and final novella in her serial series “Her British Stepbrother“. We finally get to see what the future holds for Tristen and Kat.
This story picks up right where the Seduction ended. Their parents have officially wed, the smoldering heat between Tristen and Kat is still full flame, and they are totally caught and called out as forbiden lovers. Not having any of it, Tristen’s father decides to lay down the law .. keep the love affair going with his stepsister, and lose your title, wealth and future. However, to Tristen, Kat is not just another notch on the bedpost, she is the one .. THE ONE.
The question remains, do they choose the future filled with wealth and title, or the future that has them claiming the one true love. Maybe there is another choice??! LOL
I love serials because usually it’s a one sitting consumption of story, leaving you wanting for more. Lauren Smith is really really good at picking the right moments to end a part of her her serials. This part is the conclusion, so while there was much story to be wrapped up, she still dazzled by adding the sexual heat and fierce love, suspenseful angst and a rocking finish,
You absolutely need to read the first two books in this serial. I can’t imagine the story making much sense without that. I would also like to remind readers, that while this may come across as taboo, they are step siblings, no blood relation, who met prior to the reveal that their parents are to wed. Not so much taboo in my eyes.
Thanks for wrapping this serial up perfectly Lauren. Always looking forward to your next creation.
HAPPY READING! 🙂

Great review Rachel. I see nothing wron with them being together. I have friends with kids that married and two of their kids married each other. They are no blood related so I see no problem
.
Looks like a fun series! mikelizdigman at msn dot com
