Criminal: A Bad-Boy Stepbrother Romance by Alexis Abbott
He was my protector. My savior. He would have done anything for me.
That was the past. Now, he’s a criminal. He has taken everything from me.
He’s my stepbrother and I hate him.
I’m homeless, jobless, and desperate. Worst of all, I had to come crawling back. To him.
I’m broke because of the money that he stole from me, and now I’m forced to work in the same seedy bar that he deals out of.
Every night I have to listen to him f*ck whatever new girl he brought home, and every day I have to watch as he walks around shirtless and sexy.
I’m going crazy.
I want him and I know I shouldn’t. Maybe he was once my Prince Charming, but now he’s just a big, tattooed, pierced, cocky prick.
Problem is, when he cut contact with me two years ago, I thought the feelings I had from him had disappeared. Now that he’s back, my lust for him is back too.
He’s in trouble, with his gang and with the law.
And me… I’m in trouble, too.
This is a complete, standalone romantic suspense novel.

About the author:
Here is a short sample from the book:
“What is it you want from me, Princess? Huh?”
I stare at him, confused bewildered.
“You come here, you fuck up my life, and you take over everything. You come into my home, my job, and my friends. And now you’re the one that tells me who I sleep with?”
His voice is this measured calm, this dark, scary tone I’ve never heard him use before.
Honestly, it’s terrifying, and he looks so intense I can barely breathe, let alone answer.
“I can’t get you out of my head, and then you start taking over my life too,” he growls, and it’s like there’s a heavy pit in my stomach. I don’t want him to go on, I don’t want him to keep talking, and I take a step back. But he follows.
The kitchen is small enough that it only takes a couple of steps before he has me pinned to the wall, one hand over my shoulder, glowering down at me.
At six and a half feet tall, he’s built like a truck, and I feel so tiny.
“What do I have to do to get you out of here, huh?” he asks, tapping his temple. “I’ve fucked every broad that comes into that place, and not one of them can get you out. And now I have to see you every goddamned day of my life, prancing around like I’m the scum of the earth, and you’re untouchable.”
He pauses, but he doesn’t stop. His words are slurred and dark, his breath washing over me.
“I got away from you, I got my life back, and then you come wandering back. Making me want you again, and all the while, you act like you’re too fucking good for this world. But if you eat with the pigs, Princess, you can’t be surprised when you get a bit dirty.”
