Filthy Dirty Desires
Stepbrother Weekend
My mother is getting remarried and I was originally thrilled.
Not only was I getting a new stepfather, but I’m getting a stepbrother too.
My enthusiasm left when I saw Tanner Lawson walk into the room.
He’s my new stepbrother.
My new filthy-mouthed, dirty-talking, obsessed-with-me stepbrother.
I’ve always been a good girl. Responsible, honest, and mature beyond my years.
But my tattoo-covered, rule-breaking stepbrother is bringing out a new side of me.
He’s impossible to ignore.
He knows how to push every button I have.
The good and the bad ones.
He says we’re family now and we have to share everything .
This is so wrong.
It’s so filthy.
But why does it feel so good?
There’s nothing like a family getaway with a dirty-talking stepbrother to keep things exciting! Eleanor will have her hands full (and her mouth full) with the hot new addition to her family.
Insta-love at its finest in a SAFE read with no cheating and a super sweet HEA guaranteed. Double V-cards. Enjoy!
Welcome to a filthy dirty desires!
Forget being sweet … this year we want to give into our dirtiest desires. Taboo, dangerous, and over-the-top, we’re bringing you everything you were too scared to ask for.
**Don’t worry, loves, these are still packed with the heroes you crave and the HEA’s you deserve!

Eleanor and her new family (step pops) are going on vacation and she's informed she has a new stepbrother who's been locked away, at first scared because of his criminal past until she meets him and I laughed at the first meet. Tanner is a misunderstood person his father snaps at him and now he has new family he teases flirts with Eleanor and shes fighting everything!! Few problems happen but they both give in and more drama happens when the parents find out 🤣🤣🤣
No ow/om drama, no cheating, slight drama, sexy times, both virgins

Peaches Finds Love
4.5 stars - A bad boy stepbrother who looks like sin and loves to talk dirty. What could possibly happen? 😘🔥🎉 Oh yeah, that.
I loved Tanner and Eleanor's easy, sizzling read. It's teasing, fun, over-the-top, dirty, and sweet. Yeah, that last one surprised me a bit, but there it is. I like that things were not all as they seemed and Tanner finds the redemption that matters most to him, even if belatedly.
Yes, they are stepsiblings but they live far from each other, are meeting for the first time, and are both technically adults. I think the real focus should be on the double v and the great pairing they make. 😘
I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

3.5 insta-love, full-of-tension stars
Talk about smexual tension… jeeeezus. Although she’s not JK, she definitely caught my attention. Now I’ll need to read more by her to, hopefully, have a backup JK when the need arises 😅😉- side note- the author states that her initials are OTT, and yup, I can see why.
Eleanor (18) going to be headed to Princeton and has a new step family. Her mom married the man she was dating pretty quickly (within months) and she never found out her stepfather had a son. Before they go on a family vacation, she finds out that he exists (and that he went to jail)…. and then she meets him… and man, there’s lots of tension 🥵🔥.
Tanner (22) doesn’t have the best relationship with his dad. There has been lots of miscommunication with them so they don’t get along. But that doesn’t faze him when it comes to his new stepsister 😈. As soon as he sees her, he wants her, and NO ONE ELSE is gonna have her 💁🏻♀️😉. He can sense her v!rg!nal p**** needs to be claimed, and he’s ready to do it 🔥.
The dirty talk💦. Oh LAWD. The dirty talk 🥵. This man finds a way of making anything dirty. There’s so much tension, so much STEAM🔥, I found myself highlighting left and right😅. Sure, we only get one complete smexxy scene (okay, 1.5 lol), but man, it’s good 😉. I can also appreciate the whispering of dirtay things when people were around. And don’t me started in the mouth-covering incidents 🥵.
Considering how short it is, there was a decent plot in here as well. I questioned a couple of things (like the jail misunderstanding/prison sentence), but I found myself enjoying it more than I questioned lol (versus, if something annoys me too much, I’ll end up lowering the stars).
Overall, I liked it.

May 30, 2022DNF @ 54% - the stupidity is thick. I stopped reading when the H, who up to this point had been dirty talking like the most seasoned manwhore, announces he’s a 22-yr old virgin. What a goofball. 🙄🙈🤣🤣🤣

You're the one for me, Peaches. You're the only one I want. The only I've ever wanted.
This was a fast, entertaining, little story with a side of tab**. I'm not considering it full-blown tab**, although the main trope -as you guessed by the title- is stepsiblings. This was practically instant love.
The mcs didn't know each other before their snowy weekend vacations. The fmc didn't even know her new stepfather had a son.
The bad boy x good girl trope, the delightful banter and the steam were the best parts of the book. The fact that the said boy got so obsessed and possessive with the fmc was cherry on top.
The inner monologues were goofy and in many occasions the dialogues seemed like something you've see on a bad p*rn. The ending felt a bit rushed but for a short story this book was fun.
Did I like it? Yes.
Would I reread it? Maybe.

Very steamy and hot. This author usually writes amazing epilogues but this story has a lame epilogue. No babies or pregnancy. Dual virgins! Safe!

Just reread, and I love Tanner more than I thought I did. Eleanor is so sweet, and Ms Turner did an amazing job with this couple and book.

I haven't enjoyed an insta novel this much in a long time (unless it's from JK). I liked how Eleanor made Tanner work just to get close to her. They didn't immediately fall into bed for sex, it was a hot race!
DV, completely safe.

Hot, sexy, fun. I didn't know how she was going to pull off the whole lousy stepbrother who had been to jail and had nothing going for him, but OTT made it happen. She made him redeemable and someone who was worthy of his stepsister.

STORY:
WHAT I LIKED:
I try to stay away from step sibling romances. I think for me, it depends how the author does it and I enjoyed this one. I liked Tanner, I really do. He gave you a bad boy vibe but was just the sweetest thing towards Eleanor and that was apart of the attraction that I liked about him. This is an insta romance, so everything between Tanner and Eleanor happens so quickly, so make sure you are a fan of insta love/lust. Love their epilogue, and towards the end, you couldn’t help but fall in love with both Tanner and Eleanor.
WHAT WAS SO SO:
The beginning felt ok for me. I liked it, but it still felt ok. As the story progresses, I became more involve with wanting to know the characters more as short as the story is. As much as I love Tanner, he was 22 years old, but I was still getting teenage vibes from him and not so much grown, a grown up version of him. I think for me it’s the way his father still treated him that put me in that mindset. Eleanor was younger and acted her age.
SEXUAL CHEMISTRY
So both had V-cards, but I tell you this, they both gave good sex scenes. I enjoyed their sexual chemistry together. There was no OW or OM involve before or after.
SECONDARY CHARACTERS:
There weren’t that many secondary characters. Obviously with this being a stepbrother romance, the parents were involve.
OVERALL:
Was I entertained? Yes.
Did I like the story? Yes
Would I read the other books in the series? Yes. Even though this series has books from various authors, this was my first time reading this author, but would definitely check out more books by her.
TRIGGERS:
****I don’t equate these stories to real life. It’s about personal taste and what you would or want to tolerate with the books you read. I know we all have different opinions and preferences with what we read. I based my book reviews on my preferences and what I like, and while these preferences may not be the same for others, I hope this review was still helpful.

This is a short 75-page erotic romance about stepsibling romance. Eleanor’s mother remarried 2 months ago, and Eleanor just finds out she has a 22-year-old stepbrother, who is spending a weekend skiing with them. The stepbrother stole a car and was in prison for almost a year. She is instantly attracted to him and he to her. He is hell bent on provoking her and makes no bones about his attraction and she falls for him.
This is an Insta-love, double virgin romance (yes, the guy is a virgin at 22). There is a lot of dirty talk and then sex. And a HEA. Some things were unbelievable (the prison story, the fact that 2 virgins have such amazing sex at once etc). But it is meant to be a short extremely steamy taboo romance with lots of sex and it delivers that. Authors writing is also decent (much worse books out there).
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

May 18, 2022I'm disappointed that this one didn't work out for me, I just couldn't find myself getting into the story- I found it really hard to believe that these characters were meant to be in their 20s🤷♀️. The smut was nice though 😌💀.

3.5 stars.
Simple, sweet, dirty, and short.
Exactly what I needed after reading a dark complex novel.
The dirty talk and teasing was fun and kept the book interesting.
The plot was super simple, with that hint of taboo that accompanies a step sibling romance.
The sex was steamy and dirty.
And the relationship, though only briefly seen, was sweet, just like the ending.
The perfect combo for an insta-love, double virgin romance.

This was a typical Olivia T Turner romance, totally over the top instalove romance this time with a hint of taboo. I usually quite like her stories but something about Tanner just rubbed me the wrong way. I liked Eleanor and the steamy bits. But to me this was only an okay story.

I am voluntarily reviewing an advanced reader copy of this book.
Eleanor had no idea she had a stepbrother until her mum announced it the week before the planned ski trip, more to the point a stepbrother that’s just been released from prison. Only when she meets Tanner he is nothing like she expected and just one look at him has her weak at the knees, but they are related now and she knows she needs to fight the attraction she knows that nothing should happen between them. Knowing and doing are too very different things and if she learns why he was in prison will she take the risk and go against everything she thinks is right?
Tanner has never had the best relationship with his father, he’s not the perfect son he thought he was getting, and after being in prison for doing the right thing, not that his father cared it was just another thing he’d disappointed him with. And now he was meeting his new stepfamily, he never expected Eleanor she’s perfect to him in every way and he loves watching her blush. She’s his from that moment in and he has no intention of letting her go, even as he watches her fight he feelings for him. Will she eventually look beneath the surface and see who he really is and will their parents let them be together or tear them apart?
Massive fan of this author and this book was the perfect example of why. Tanner made you want to look after him at the same time as strangle him for always wanting to embarrass Eleanor. Sweet read with steamy and funny scenes. 4.3* read.

Eleanor and Tanner
Eleanor's mother just married Tanner's father, and they're just now finding out each other exists. But when they meet, the two have a connection that they shouldn't have being stepsiblings.
This was a fun and steamy read. I loved Tanner and his dirty talk with Eleanor, especially when he was goading her. Eleanor is sweet and innocent (in every way), so it was nice seeing them have that connection. The writing was done really well and I loved that the pacing was fairly fast.
I think there was a little too much emphasis on the step-sibling aspect. It seemed like every other sentence they spoke to each other was something about them being step siblings.

Good
Eleanor and Tanner are step siblings who have just met and both are wildly attracted to each other. Tanner is ready to dive into a relationship right away but Eleanor has a lot of reservations. Tanner is quite the dirty talker and loves to rile her up, he loves getting under her skin and making her blush. Tanner knows she is it for him and he is determined to get her to see what he does.
Safety and Spoilers
Completely safe. No ow/om drama. Both are virgins. Both their parents are disgusted with their relationship and refuse to talk to them for a long time. It takes h’s mother 8 months to reach out. No abuse.

The couple: Tanner and Eleanor
Romance genre: stepbrother
Series: Filthy Dirty Desires
Length: 91 pages
Plot: Eleanor's new stepfather is the perfect guy for her mom, but then his son shows up. He's a felon and hot as sin. Eleanor doesn't think much of him; he's an arrogant, criminal, dirty-talking jerk who won't leave her alone. But the truth is that she is attracted to him, way more than she should be. As she gets to know him better, she finds that she might have had him all wrong. Except for the dirty talking - that's all him.
Commentary: I've been a little disappointed in some of OTT's recent offerings, but I felt like this one was more like the older stories. There was a connection between the characters, and while it was mostly sex, it wasn't all sex. They had actual deep conversations. I enjoyed the word play between them and they way they grabbed their HEA.

This one was kind of eye-rollingly funny with the almost childish dirty puns and double entendres used by the hero to tease the heroine. They are stepsiblings who just met as adults on a family ski trip shortly after their parents get married. There is a brief full-sex scene after all the aforementioned teasing, then a sweet HEA. Again, skimmed some due to my personal mood but this is also pretty standard instalove/short fare.
