If you were a fan of Little Red Riding Hood as a little girl,
here is a fun twist on the classic story!
Her Stepbrother, The Wolf: A Once Upon a Stepbrother Novella by Rachel Kenley is now available!
Synopsis:
Little Red Riding Hood is all grown up. And the wolf doesn’t scare her at all.
Rosalind is an outcast in her own town. Known as Ruby for the birthmark on her neck, it is believed she was touched by death during birth. But she doesn’t care. She’s led a happy life with the support and tutelage of the village wise woman and the loving attention of her stepbrother, Rafe.
Of course, now that she’s older, she is secretly and passionately drawn to Rafe in a not so sisterly way. And Rafe has secrets of his own.
For Rafe, the full moon means three nights as a wolf, a freedom and form he loves. However, as he accepts his desire to devour Ruby when he’s in his human form, he leaves to protect them both.
Now he’s back, and not only does he intend to change his relationship with Ruby, but a hunter is following him. Ruby and Rafe have to put an end to the threat that wants them both dead before they can live their happy ending.

My Review:
I have always thoroughly enjoyed when authors take fairy tales or classic stories and twist them up! Her Stepbrother, The Wolf by Rachel Kenley, is no exception! Little Red Riding Hood was one of my favorites, so to find a variation even my adult self can enjoy, is fabulous!
Being a novella, it is a quick read which makes this story perfect for when you don't want something that will take days to get through!
There was really only one thing that I needed out of this story that I did not get. I was so swept up in this story that at the end I forgot it was a novella and wanted more of a summary or foretelling of their future. The author could probably make this into a full length novel and I wouldn't mind at all!
Her Stepbrother, The Wolf: A Once Upon a Stepbrother Novella is a quick read with a HEA.
