Did I enjoy this book: I really did enjoy this book. It was a great addition to the Someone Else’s Fairytale series. (You can find my reviews here: Someone Else’s Fairytale, Nobody’s Damsel, Break It Up, and A Safe Space.)
My Wicked Half-Sister brings us more Chloe and Jason. They are such a wonderful couple. I love their friendship and chemistry, and their love for one another is apparent. I really enjoyed getting to know Chloe’s sister, Beth. She is a force to be reckoned with. I didn’t find her wicked, but she was persistent. This story moved fast but took place during a small window of time. I was surprised by Chloe’s mother. I guess I never noticed her being that way in the previous books. I did enjoy her ending in this book (even though I thought she had a very different role in this story). I hope her opportunity works out. Of course, I’m excited for Chloe and Jason. And I can’t wait for the next book!!!
Would I recommend it: Yes, but read the rest of the series first.
About the book – from Goodreads: Chloe didn’t set out to be famous, but her marriage to Hollywood A-lister, Jason Vanderholt, made her a celebrity by association. Jealous and nosy fans heckle her in public and the tabloids portray her as cold, arrogant, and unworthy of her husband. As bad as that is, it’s about to get a whole lot worse.
Her brother, Chris, is being paroled from prison, where he has been serving time for shooting and nearly killing Chloe when she was a child. This is not a situation that she wants splashed all over the headlines, especially because this could incite her brother to try to finish the job.
When Chloe gets word of a string of crimes that might be tied to her brother, she finds she has yet another enemy: their father, Dr. Winters. He refuses to cooperate with Chloe’s security team and even gives the police a hard time when they try to investigate.
The one ally Chloe has in her own family is her half-sister, Beth, a public prosecutor intent on bringing Chris to justice. Her approach is so aggressive that everyone from Chloe’s security specialist to the police detective insists that she is doing more harm than good. Beth assures Chloe that her way is the only way that will work, which leaves Chloe to decide whether to trust the experts, or the sister she barely knows. The wrong choice puts her very life in danger.
