Dark Obsessions Anthology by C.M. Steele

Review only for Cherry Pie by Daisy Jane
Cherry, the female lead, has been raised by a nanny/carer since her mother’s death 14 years ago. Glenn, her stepfather, and Max and Conrad, her stepbrothers, shared a mansion but not a life. Now she’s 18, her nanny has been dismissed, and her stepfather demands she join the family law firm. And he and his sons appear to want more than work from her but she wants to know why her mother died and why they ejected her from their lives…
This novella is female lead POV, well written, and a taboo step father/brother reverse harem romance. It is intense, taboo (obviously) and covers a range of dark desire. I appreciated the character and relationship development and that Cherry didn’t just fall in line - they had ignored her for so long! I loved the epilogue, actually more than the rest of the story - totally in line with my kinks. This is the first shorter story I’ve read from this author and, whilst the content was handled well, I felt like it was packed in and would have worked better as a longer story. I also prefer multi POV.
I received a complimentary copy from the author and this is my voluntary, honest review.
