Review: The Billionaires: The Stepbrothers

The Billionaires: The Stepbrothers by Calista Fox
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Sexy, smart and determined, Scarlet is going to figure out who stole the multimillion-dollar art collection before the time runs out. She knows there is something fishy about how the art collection disappeared. As an insurance fraud investigator, she is the best at her job and she doesn't leave a case unsolved. The problem with this one is, there are two men who block her at every step. Which one of them did this? Michael or his step brother Sam? Both received suspicious amounts of money during the same period. If she could only talk to them, she could rule them out as suspects or determine if they are guilty. It does not help that their father is even more bold in stopping all inquires from Scarlet.

Ms. Fox creates another delicious menage where the heat leaps off the pages. The chemistry between Scarlet and each of the brothers is hawt. Too bad they live in different worlds - rural, city and world traveler. How can they possible ever come together? Where could they be together? How can they make it work? Because when they are together, they are more than just physically compatible. These three characters match each other in the ways that they didn't even know they needed. This is definitely a complicated relationship with the added stress of criminal activity, even if it is a white crime where "no one got hurt". Ms. Fox creates gut clenching tension as more information is unearthed from the past. There is a reason why there is an axiom, "let sleeping dogs lie". It is shocking and the plot twists makes this story a bit unbelievable yet more understandable. The ending is bittersweet. Because even though love conquers all, at what price? This erotic romance is recommended to menage readers who enjoy explosive sex, betrayals and skeletons bured deep in closets.
