Ten years ago, Eric mysteriously disappeared, leaving his eight-year-old brother, Wes, behind with their unhinged mother. What Wes never knew was that Eric never strayed far—for years he's been watching and waiting, determined to keep what happened to him from happening to Wes... even if it means taking control of Wes' life to help him get back on track. When the worst happens and Wes finds himself up to his eyeballs in trouble, it's up to Eric to keep him safe. Big brother's back, and he's never letting Wes put himself in danger again. Content warning: taboo relationship between brothers, dub-con, imprisonment/kidnapping
Piper Scott debuted as a trio of authors looking to write together for fun. Their collaboration led to three novella-length books (Love Me, Save Me, and Keep Me,) before life sent them in different directions, leaving just one author with an omegaverse plot bunny that wouldn’t leave her alone. Obey was born several months later… but the plot bunny never left—it multiplied.
Left to her own devices, Piper Scott writes scorching but heartfelt contemporary omegaverse romance about men you can’t help but fall in love with.
I grabbed this from a Prolific Works giveaway along with several others & made it my second read from the batch. The sex & kink (contains incest, so be ready for that if you didn't read the story blurb) are hot, Piper is always great for that, but the actual plot is shaky. There's too much story for this to be a purely erotic read, but not enough focus given to the plot points, questions & concerns raised. It moves too quickly from one thing to the next & I really thought Wes was just playing at seduction to get his freedom. He's too prickly toward Eric for the majority of the story for it to make sense that they're suddenly together forever. The abuse issues raised in the beginning need to be better addressed to level out the story or taken out altogether so that they don't distract from the erotica. As it is, it's a good read for Piper fans, but not the best showcasing of her talent.

The sex and taboo aspect in this book is hot and I really enjoyed that part, but the storyline was really off for me.
Eric left home when Wes was 8 years old. But why? Was Eric already 18 at that point? His POV made it seem like something happened... and with Wes calling him a fucking pervert right away I thought maybe Eric tried to do something to his brother back then? It wasn’t super straightforward on what the issue was.
Short, dark, and gritty. There were a few too many mentions of centipedes for my liking. The story felt a bit choppy at times. I think if it had been a bit longer, it might’ve flowed better.
Short story with some plot about a big brother, Eric, faking his death and becoming his little brother's, Wes, guardian angel. When Eric rescues Wes for a potential dangerous situation he takes Wes with him to live at his place and the brothers start an incestuous relationship.
I got this free from Prolific Works Keeping it Kinky give away (which ends today, for those kink for free kink).
For a short erotic story it wasn’t horrible, and honestly I enjoyed the taboo aspect of the book more than I enjoyed the daddy kink... I don’t know why daddy kink rubs me the wrong way, the term “baby boy” just kills me... but with that and the taboo aspect it was a little cringe worthy for my tastes.
Since I kind of knew what I was getting into before reading it I’m going to skip on giving it the low rating I think it deserves.
Why did they have to be actual brothers? Ughh, I kept telling myself their were stepbrothers cause it was kinda hot too. Anyways, nothing to write home about.
I have no idea how to rate this short story so I'm not going to. The story wasn't bad but the fact these guys were blood brothers didn't work for me. I tried to ignore the blood relationship, tried to be okay with it because Wes & Eric haven't seen each other in 10 years and I liked the guys but no matter what I tried the fact remains they are brothers and I just couldn't go there. Nope, blood brother kink isn't my thing.

She promised a dirty taboo story and did she ever deliver. The story was a bit rushed, and the build up of the sexual tension awkward , but once the money time came it all fell together. In a short story it's always better to start poorly and finish strong than the other way around. At least as long as it's not dnf poor, that is. BTW, the violence and abuse tags are not relevant for the relationship between the MCs.
it's relatively well written - very short thank goodness. I can't fault it for it's subject matter, but I was uncomfortable with it. I try to avoid this subject matter, but I enjoy other works of the author and the was a free short.
I love Piper’s taboo reads. These two brothers were a great read. Both with a troubled past but ten years of being separated, they both have a lot to learn about each other. I would have liked a little more detail on their pasts and a slower build up to them getting together. Wes changed his toon too quickly and I wanted more relationship growth shown.
Oh f**k it ! It was just hot! I never thought I would be ok with reading this kind of incest kink but it was awesome. Yes I would have like to see it be a little longer with some more background but F**k it ! Great Job Piper! You're books continue to surprise me and I love that !
