Our Dirty Secret

by Becca Vale

Family has always defined me. Being a Vargas is in my blood—or at least, I thought it was. Then one DNA test upends my entire life, tearing holes in the family story I grew up believing that feel like they might tear me apart, too.

But it’s not just my past it changes. It’s my future, too.

Because the results don’t just tell me I’m not really my father’s son. They tell me that the man I love—the man I’ve built my whole life around—is actually my brother.

Jamie is still mine. My corazón, my soulmate, my forever. But now he’s something else, too.

Something forbidden.

Something I need to keep secret.

Because I can’t walk away, and knowing the truth doesn’t make me want Jamie any less.

It only makes me want him even more…

first Becca Vale did NOT disappoint.

obsessed -- the dirty talk, shut up, so hot.

[Loves · Rating 3 out of 5]

It's a bit different from Vale usual fare, not due to the characters - they should feel very familiar - but since the taboo here is accidentally discovered rather than being obvious. While it's decent taboo erotica, I was a bit annoyed that this difference didn't have more impact on the plot (except discussing the kink itself).
