My Brother's Girl

Darren O'Sullivan

Reason #3 to dislike Kayleigh: she laughed far too loud.

Reason #2 to really dislike Kayleigh: her giggle was even worse.

I didn't need her working for me, her damn strawberries-and-cream shampoo cutting through the smell of petrol and oil in my mechanic garage. I liked being on my own in the darkness under the hood. I deserved to be alone.

I didn't need her fingers brushing mine as she passed me the wrench. I didn't need her trying to change things, to fix things, to fix me.

I didn't want her around my family, enchanting them with her dimpled smile and infectious laughter. I didn't need them to fall in love with her... especially not my baby brother, Eoin.

Reason #1 to really, really dislike Kayleigh: she wasn't mine... she was my brother's girl.

My Brother's Girl is an angsty forbidden romance that's standalone and with a HEA.
