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 . . ..

Blurb: Stylist Elle Olsen lives in fear of someone discovering her secret identity as Princess Eloise. But the men who killed her entire family in a bloody coup have done just that and now they’re coming for her. All Elle wants is to disappear into anonymity again, but the panty-melting billionaire who kidnaps her isn’t about to let that happen.

On the society pages, smoking hot financier Dominick Rasmussen is one of the world’s most eligible bachelors, but there’s more to him than meets the eye. As a secret resistance fighter, his one goal is to get Princess Eloise on the throne and restore the monarchy. The biggest problem? His stubborn and sexy undercover princess has no interest in ever wearing a tiara again.

Their goals couldn’t be more opposed, but neither Dom nor Elle can deny the attraction bringing them closer together. As the stakes rise and danger increases, they are forced to choose between love and country…

Excerpt:
The strain in Dom’s voice could have been from her escape attempts, but Elle doubted it. The bastard wasn’t even breathing hard. Time to switch tactics. Instead of sinking her nails into the steel band he disguised as an arm, she inhaled a deep breath. As her lungs expanded, her boobs pressed against his forearm. He went perfectly still. Interesting. Now this was something she could work with. He could overpower her in a heartbeat, so she had to use whatever tools were at her disposal to distract, disarm, and defend. If Mr. Hard Body got a hard-on, that could very well be her ticket to freedom.
She lifted her chin, letting her left cheek rub against his hard pec as she tilted her face upward, and tugged at her bottom lip with her teeth as if she was a little slow and trying to work out all of the confusing details when in reality she was already ten moves ahead. “So while the world thinks of you as a real-life Bruce Wayne with hundreds of millions in the bank and models draped across your arm, you’re really Batman, aligned with the Resistance, and you kidnapped me for my own good?”
“Exactly,” he said.
“Isn’t that what an assassin would say in such circumstances?” She batted her eyelashes.
He narrowed his gaze, but his lips twitched as if he were fighting off a smile. Shit. That might have been a step too far. Sometimes dialing down the drama proved harder than expected, but it was too late to pivot from her course now. She needed a second or two to break free—after that she’d figure it out.
“If you were on my hit list,” he said, his voice low and soft, “you’d have been dead before you even got to ask me my inseam.”
Thirty-four. The number popped in her head faster than an appropriate response.
“And if by ‘such circumstances’ you mean totally under my control…” His fingers brushed her hip as he dipped his head lower so his lips almost brushed her ear. “If that was the case, then I can’t say I’d really be looking for talk.”
His words tickled her sensitive skin, heated her flesh, and made her mouth go dry. Then he shifted his stance and something hard, long, and thick brushed against her ass before moving away. She dropped her gaze and bit her lip for real this time. It was either that or moan in protest. The man had a smart mouth, a hard body, and questionable motives. In short, he was exactly what made her panties melt.
“Are you sure you really want to play this game with me?” Dom asked, his lips so close to her ear she could practically feel them. “I promise, I’m much better at it than you.”

His Undercover PrincessHis Undercover Princess by Avery Flynn
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

His Undercover Princess is a tense, action-packed romantic suspense novel which I received a free copy from Barclays in exchange for an honest review. It is a very suspenseful novel about Elle who has lived many years in hiding, working as a stylist. Elle has been in hiding after a coup leaves her the only living member of her royal family. Dominick is one of her wealthy clients who has come to her under the guise of purchasing a new wardrobe. Although he is truly a wealthy financier, he is also one of the leaders of the resistance fighters that are fighting to get Elle back on the throne of her country.

The resistance fighters need their leader ready to take the throne back from the group that murdered her family and Elle has no interest in leading a country that took her father from her in front of her eyes. But, if Dom has anything to say about it Elle will take on the role and become queen in very short order, but, not before they do what is needed to take back the throne. As Dom prepares Elle for taking back the throne they manage to fall madly in love with each other, but, Dom has other reasons for being part of the resistance since he has lost a lot to the coup as well. He cannot be in a relationship with now Queen Eloise because her only job is to be ready to take the throne and a relationship with him is not in the cards, even if they meet their goals.
Climax (Her British Stepbrother #3)Climax by Lauren Smith
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Climax is the final installment in the Her British Stepbrother trilogy which I received an early release copy from Barclay in exchange for an honest review. Kat has decided that her father's happiness after all he has been through is the most important thing and Tristan's mom makes him very happy. They are engaged to be married which will make Kat and Tristan step-siblings. Tristan has no desire to give up on his relationship with Kat despite the pending marriage of their parents. He just has to convince Kat that it is okay and somehow fight his own father's machinations to force him into marrying someone he has selected for Tristan.

Climax continues the story where Kat has broken things off with Tristan and they are both miserable. Their parents marry at the beginning of the book and this brings everything to the front. How can step-siblings be in a relationship? Tristan wants to continue as they are despite the backlash they might suffer if their secret gets out and Kat is not willing to do anything to jeopardize her father's happiness. She is just developing a relationship with his father's new wife and Tristan and Kat are spending time together as step-siblings in public and seeing each other in private when things take a turn very quickly. Tristan's father Edward is throwing his weight around and things become very tense for everyone involved. Climax is a great story with a traditionally "forbidden" relationship that has the reader being of two minds, thinking this relationship is still a bit odd and forbidden at the same time wanting Kat and Tristan to be together.
