Stepbrother Billionaire Colleen Masters Books Reviews
2.5 - 3 stars
I love these taboo romances but I felt as though this story was lacking.
First of all Abby and Emerson went to the same high school together. Abby crushed on him hard as of the first day being a freshman. Emerson never noticed her....or at least that's what she thought.
Then senior year their parents begin dating. All of a sudden Emerson and his mom move into Abby and her dad's house. Emerson starts messing with her and calling her Sis around school which annoys her. Then one house party (first chapter) they find themselves in a closet for 7 minutes in heaven with each other. There's a little sexual tension that happens and then they don't talk for a week or two and suddenly they're together professing their undying love. But they know they can't be together because they're soon to be step-siblings.
**I really wish the author took the time to delve into their relationship a little more and didn't make it inst-love between Abby & Emerson. Reading back and forth banter is fun and reading the build up of relationships makes me feel invested in characters lives. I didn't feel this.**
It then jumps to eight years later when they find each other again. I won't say anything more because I don't want to give the story away, however I will say this. Making someone a 'Billionaire' is a very far leap. Do authors even recognize just how many millions make up a billion? So having a 25 year old a self made billionaire is ridiculous.
P.s. I'm still tempted after all this to check out the second Stepbrother book by the author.
It started out good and I actually enjoyed the first half. . .but the entire second half felt forced and the main characters weren't as interesting and the secondary characters were downright stereotyped. Everything could have simmered a lot longer in the second half and been a much better story. It felt like it was a rush job to finish it and that's too bad because the whole idea had a lot of potential and I really liked the two protagonists.
Also, the title is just a little pretentious and while it felt misleading the first half of the book (her family had the money, not his) it made the end too predictable once their situations were reversed and also made the "out" way to easy for them.
SPOILERS What I would have loved to have had happen
1-The parents marriage dissolving the first day was a cop-out. It would have been much more interesting for Abby and Emerson to have had to put up with months (even years) of their parents being married. An unhappy marriage would have been fabulous because then the pointlessness of the parents marriage would have made it all the more tragic.
2-Instead of Emerson and Abby having completely lost track of each other, let them have avoided each other on purposes after they got into college and have him reach out to help her get a job at the company he works with, them both telling themselves that they've grown up and they can move on and work together.
3-Don't make him a billionaire. Reasonably wealthy, yes, but it was too over the top.
4-Have them work together for a while, pretending they don't feel anything for each other and a gradual re-establishment of the relationship. Have their parents be so pleased that the "siblings" are working together
5-Abby has her job a day before she gets fired. She has no emotional investment in the company and no one has emotional investment in her. Also, her boss freaks out about her with her "brother" but they were barely step-siblings for 24 hours before the marriage was over and because he's just met Abby, he has no reason to be judgemental. . .but if he'd been introduced to her as "this is my sister" and the two of them had played the sibling card a lot harder when they worked together to try to hide their feelings and then the office would have a lot more scandal with a lot more reason when it became clear there was something more. Maybe have them unable to resist each other but hiding it from the office and their families for a really long time so there's a reason for everyone to freak out.
6-A good ending would be that when people do find out and Abby's grandparents freak out that her Dad comes to her and say that he and Deborah have talked it over and have decided to get a divorce because neither of them have been happy together and they realize their divorce might pave the way for their children's happiness.
While I respect the author for getting a book published, I wish she'd waited a little longer to develop the story into what could have been a very bleak look at an ill-fated love that had a happy ending despite all odds. That's what I thought we were going to get (and in a way, we did) but so rushed it wasn't satisfying.
This book was ok for me. I read Step-Brother Untouchable and liked it so I thought I would give Step-Brother Billionaire a try. First of all, the similarities to Penelope Ward's Step-Brother Dearest were too hard to ignore. And I love that book. But this one felt a bit off to me. When the book starts, you get the sense of a long harbored dislike between Abby and Emerson (which btw is a girl's name to me, so it was very distracting). But then a few random things happen and suddenly Emerson is portrayed completely different and he and Abby are in love. It just felt so rushed to me. Then the bad stuff happens, they are separated, cut to many years later, and again, the whole situation was very rushed. If he claimed to love Abby like he said he always had and thought about her all the time, then why in the many years that they were apart, didn't he reach out to her? She forgave him too easily in my mind and that always ruins a book for me, when the heroine is portrayed as weak. And I really felt like Abby was weak. If you want a really good version of this story, read Penelope Ward's Step-Brother Dearest. Much, much better.
The author does a great job with descriptions and character bonding. You will feel the pushing and pulling of the characters. This is a story that I would read again as well as others in the series as well as other stuff by the author.
