Off Limits

What was I supposed to do? I desperately wanted to take that summer art class - one that would count toward my college credits come fall. But it was far from home and the only option I really had was to stay with Jackson, my stepbrother - the very stepbrother who detested me and my mother. Surly and sullen, he was still the sexiest man I'd ever seen. He wasn't thrilled to have me invade his home or his life, either. Slowly, though, he warmed toward me. Was it because of the electricity that crackled between us? The irresistible pull we both felt? Or maybe it was the searing kiss we'd shared that night... Whatever it was, he was teaching me things that I'd never learned in art class - things I wasn't allowed to tell anyone. What would our parents say?
