This past weekend, I read a short story called Cold Sweat by Vera Valentine. This was only 9 chapters long, and when I say that it was a quick read, I was able to read this while going to a family member’s house.

My thoughts: When I first received this book, I didn’t know what to expect. I read the back, which was what caught my attention, as it is not your typical book. This is a taboo step-brother/step-sister trope but with a twist…

I will be completely honest with you: it did take a couple of chapters to get going, but once I did, I didn’t want to put it down.

My rating: 4.5/5 🌟 The only reason I took away a half a star was that it just took me a bit to catch on, but like I said, once I did, I didn’t want to put it down.

Have you read this book? Yes, what are your thoughts? What book should I read next?
