My Review:
At her mother's wedding, Sophie sees him for the first time. An instant attraction and in her head determines she's going to make something of it.
Logan is at his father's wedding, he's a bit put out about the whole situation, bitter over fatherly issues. Then he sees her and decides his attendance might be worth it.
And then they are introduced. Meet your new sibling. Step-sibling that is. Being taught that family is everything, Logan and Sophie find themselves in an awkward situation, sure of their feelings, but also sure of what would happen if they chose to act on them.
Just when it seems they might stand a chance, tragedy strikes.
Stepbrother, Mine takes you on a journey as a relationship alters two people's lives in many different ways. We see the struggle of two people with deep feelings trying so hard to stay away from each other out of worry for the way their relationship will be perceived. Then we see one pull away while the other tries to cling closer. Their story isn't easy and the path isn't smooth, but it proves that sometimes when you find the one, you just know and you never give up on them.
Author Bio
Mandy Lou Dowson was born and raised in a small town in Ireland, in 1983, and at this stage in life, she's pretty sure the town won't let her leave. Family is a huge deal to Mandy. She has three wonderful children (most of the time), and two Siberian Huskies who are each as naughty as the other – in fact, she's sure they egg each other on in silly cartoon voices when nobody is looking.

When she's not writing, reading, or plotting her next book -- or, you know, world domination – , she likes to relax with a few glasses of wine and some karaoke. You can usually find her procrastinating on social media of some sort, chatting to fans and talking nonsense.
Mandy started reading at quite a young age and her appetite for the written word has only increased with time. It would not be at all surprising to find her reading anything and everything from shampoo bottles to Edgar Allan Poe.
She is the author of three different genres of romance books. The Moon Bound series, which is in the Paranormal Romance genre, and is gathering rave reviews, and the Taboo series, which is Contemporary with a hint of the forbidden, the first of which has gathered very mixed reviews across the board, from one extreme to the other.
She has also made a foray into Dark Romance recently, with her first title in the genre, Retribution, releasing in Summer 2015.
