It was just a crush. They were only kids, after all. But what happens when that feeling never goes away? Brayden and Kira have been neighbors for years, and best friends since they met.

Everything slams to a halt when their single parents decide to get remarried . . . to each other.

Brayden tries to stay away, to forget her, but it’s an impossible task he fails at time and time again. Kira is morphing from a sexy teenager to an irresistible woman, one that knows what she wants and seems hell-bent on getting it. As Kira’s eighteenth birthday approaches, Brayden has a decision to make. Does he keep running away from the thing he wants the most or does he run toward it?

Strong willed and stubborn, neither of them is willing to give in without a fight. There’s a million reasons why she shouldn’t care for him anymore . . . but she does. Brayden senses this, and he’s laid siege on her life, haunting her in every possible sense—reminding her of what they once shared. But he’s still the man that wrecked her. The man she loves. The man she utterly despises. He’s still her step brother. Right and wrong have no sway with the heart. What it wants, it takes. With every day that passes, Kira is reminded of all the reasons she has to hate him . . . and all the reasons she still has to adore him. Can Kira let go and give him a chance, or is it really too little, too late? Even if she can forgive him, is it possible for them to have a future together while still being step-siblings? #SayHisName less
