Finding true love in a small town is damn near impossible. It’s either marry your high school girlfriend or pray someone new comes around so you can knock her boots off before anyone else does. If that fails, maybe the next town over has a good time to offer. Unless you’re me. I’m Brandt Kenshaw and I fell in love with the one girl I wasn’t supposed to. My step sister.She moved in straight from … in straight from rehab and is now living on my dad’s ranch in the guesthouse.
My guesthouse. With me.
She’s a drug addict. Or she was. Covered in tattoos and pitch-black hair, she looks about as at home on this farm as I’d look in her big city. She sleeps all day, eats all my peanut butter, and refuses to help out on the ranch. Doesn’t matter though. Not much does when I realize she’s the spur to my boot and I don’t fight it for near as long as I should.
As if hiding the relationship from our parents isn’t hard enough, my crazy brother is determined to watch it go up in smoke.
We’re addicted to each other, but this is one addiction I hope she doesn’t kick.

A country boy and a city girl are thrown together and to make matters worse they are step siblings. As things start to heat up in the country neither Brandt or Jo can deny the attraction and chemistry that they have. As secrets are kept and danger lurks at every turn these two may have their relationship and feelings for each other discovered sooner than they hoped. A story that will keep you guessing right up to the very end. Addict is action packed, full of drama, entertaining and hot and steamy. Nothing like cowboy boots, a country twang and a Stetson to keep you gripped to the pages of a book.
Really enjoyed this story. Very well written. Looking forward to reading Book 2
This is the first time I’ve read anything by both these authors. It took me a minute to get in to it because I wasn’t really liking Jo, but she grew on me and turned my feelings around. I did enjoy the story, because cowboys. Hell yeah I was liking me some Brandt. He and Jo had some crazy hot sexy times together. The epilogue was really cute. I’m moving on to the next one because I really liked Bo in this one.
I like cowboys just like everybody else, but good lord, Brandt Kenshaw has win my heart completely. Hardworking, intense, resilient and so much fun in his daily life, it was a no brainer that Brant would take this personality traits to his love life. And what an amazing love story he builds with Jo. She is his exact opposite in everything. A woman who has suffered more than words could explain, who was just about to give up on life just to exist. But giving up is almost impossible when Brandt is around. He has enough energy and love for the two of them and will do everything in his power to inject the same feelings in Jo.
The topics treated in this story together with the love story and the hottest moments I have red in a while, are perfectly balanced and make this book a page-turner-can’t-put-it-down one.
Enjoyed this introduction to Kenshaw Ranch. Loved the banter (& chemistry) between farm boy and city girl. I do wish the past between Donna and Jo was explained a bit more.
I love a great taboo story! Piper & Frost delivered!
When sexy cowboy Brandt finally meets his step-sister former addict and city girl Jo sparks fly.
Brandt is determined to break down Jo’s walls and win her heart. He just need her to realize her past does not define her.
Mix in some drama and angst..cause hello Piper & Frost wrote this book….plus a swoony and sexy cowboy and who cares about the taboo!
Pick this up NOW! And Give me the other cowboys stories!
“For some reason, a rude chick moves into my house, steals my peanut butter, and is mean to me every chance she gets even when I’m trying to be nice and hospitable. You’d think I wouldn’t care, but I do.”
First off….cowboys, ’nuff said. Complete opposites and I found myself cracking up while enjoying the growing heat between these two. Brandt is absolutely adorably sinful!! Let me tell you, there are some incredibly hot moments in this one, not even kidding. It had a good dose of angst, although at times Jo was becoming a little tedious, but understandable given her past. I fell in love with the group of friends, so I can’t wait for their books either. Fun, flirty but evened out with real, gritty, and dangerous undertones…great start to a series! Don’t be put off by forbidden, it was written well, so nothing was weird. I thank the Authors for providing a copy to review!
“You’re new here, Jo. I’ll give you a few days to accept one thing about me, ” I say., then lean down closer to her, simply because she smelled great last night and I need another hit. “I have no boundaries, sweetheart.”

Tough city girl and the sweet cowboy
Okay…I’m going to keep it real.
This is a step brother romance and I one clicked so fast my finger jammed. She’s the hardened city girl and he’s the sweet smiling cowboy. Opposites attract in a major way.
Addict is sexy, sweet, and filled with problems. Or more like trouble…
Hold on to your cowboy hats and get ready to meet the men of Kenshaw Ranch.
Brandt Kenshaw is going to be your new book boyfriend. And if you have your book boyfriends sorted into groups, add Brandt to your favorite Cowboy BBF list. I put him on mine. Hell, I already have Bo and Chase there and I haven’t gotten their stories yet!
Jo isn’t your typical girl. She’s from NY. She’s a city girl. She doesn’t want to move in with her mother and step-father at all. And when she hears there’s a step-brother in the picture? Well, let’s just say she’s less than thrilled. If she could be more aloof, I’d be hard pressed to learn how. She’s the perfect girl for Brandt. And that probably sounds stupid, but she’s perfect because he brings out the best in her. It may not seem like it, but he does. He pushes her out of her comfort zone, he pushes her to live her life.
And living isn’t what Jo is accustomed to doing.
She’s content with not leaving the confines of her room.
Brandt will have you dropping your panties and panting for more. He’ll have you bent over a hay bale in no time. He’ll have you keeping secrets and he’ll have you stealing kisses behind closed doors.
And most importantly, he’ll be there to protect you as you fall for him. Because you will fall for Brandt Kenshaw. I know I did.
Give me Bo, Piper Frost. I’m not satisfied with only one cowboy!
What’s better than a cowboy romance? I sexy taboo cowboy romance. Brandt is what I always think a cowboy should be, insanely hot and sweet all rolled into one. I love how once he has made up his mind he won’t let anyone change it and he really doesn’t care if they disagree with his choices. I feel like Jo is really two people mixed into one body. The real her is in there somewhere but is trapped by the person she has had to be to survive. I still have questions about her past and her moms role, or lack of, in it. Regardless of the taboo of their relationship I love Jo and Brandt together. I can’t wait for Bo’s book!
