Blurb: Cody Garrett, a former Navy SEAL, has never met a skirt he didn’t fancy. His six-pack, rugged looks and bad boy image ensures a steady stream of hot babes waiting to slip him their phone numbers wherever he goes.
So, he is confused when Bridie Barker refuses to go on a date with him.
It’s not like she’s a stunning beauty or something. According to him, her ears are big, she’s well-rounded and she’s not even a D-cup.
In spite of her shortcomings, the more she pushes him away, the more he finds himself thinking of her.
Twenty-year-old Bridie Barker has control issues. Every detail in her life is planned.
Her closet is color-coded and she has an array of storage containers, to ensure that everything is in its correct place.
Her whole world is black and white, and grey areas are a no-no.
When she meets the warm and grounded Scott Garrett, she thinks she has found her soul mate. Unfortunately, and to her disappointment, things don’t pan out with Scott.
While waiting tables, she has a disastrous run-in with his brother, Wild Boy Cody Garrett, King of Body Shots, who parties every night with a different girl.
Even though he’s good to look at and makes her laugh, she turns down his advances as he’s clearly the tag-and-release kind of guy.
Besides, she is pretty sure he owns not a single storage container, and she’s certain that his closet is not color-coded.
Problem is, Cody Garrett finds her rejection an aphrodisiac and pursues her.
My Brother, My Rival is a sexy, modern-day, drama-filled love story.
Warning: sex scenes, violence, racial themes and coarse language.
Review: Reading the blurb of this book really doesn’t do it justice. You never know what you will get when you read this book. There are so many twist and turns. You start pulling for one person and the next moment you are pulling for another.
Birdie Barker is a woman that needs control in her life. She lost her mom when she was little to drugs and never knew who her father was. She was put into foster care and grew up with a mixed family. To say her brothers and sisters are not normal would be putting them down. Each one had a bad childhood and they might be loud and wild but they take care of each other.
Cody Garrett is a womanizer and has a different one every time Birdie see’s him in the bar. He is always doing body shots. He feels something about Birdie but he has a lot to get through before he can date her. Scott is Cody’s little brother and he also has feelings for Birdie. Fate seems to have a hand in who gets Birdie and who doesn’t.
This book will make you laugh and get your emotions all mixed up. I enjoyed this book and the author sure knows how to keep you guessing and second guessing. I am still going over the story after I reached the last page. Makes you really want to get the next book to see what the author will have up her sleeve. This is a book that will make you want to read the next book or go crazy waiting for it. You will never be able to guess what will happen next.
