I knew I was falling for the man my mom married all those years ago. Strutting around the house in barely there shorts. Bending over in front of him like a total brat. He’s rough, wears a cowboy hat like it’s X-rated, and has to duck to get through doorways. To him, I’m just his ex’s kid.

So when I show up on Cade Burton’s front porch with a bruise on my cheek and two big secrets under my shirt, I dial the teasing up to a ten just to see this hot cowboy sweat. Only, what I don’t know is he has some feelings of his own and my teasing hasn’t gone unnoticed.

Author’s note: This is one milky, fantastical, totally unrealistic forbidden romp. Step-Tease is an exclusive novella in the Wanting What’s Wrong series of best-selling step-relation stories. There’s dirty talk, one colossal, hot cowboy, a little girl who’s had a crazy year, and just the right setup for a happily ever after that absolutely shouldn’t have happened… But it did. It does.
