My stepdad calls me a tease. It's true I do tease him a little, but only because I want his attention. I like the way he looks at me. I like the way his nostrils flare if I show him a little too much. Besides, is it really teasing if I'll follow through and give him anything he wants?

Even though he's my stepdad, I call him Coach. He's the coach of my soccer team and so even though I'm eighteen, he still has the power to cut me off from the sport I love. So I have to follow his rules. That means no boys. I hated him for that, until I realized that no boys means I have room for a man.

How does that song go? “Love in an elevator, livin' it up when I'm goin' down….” I’m claustrophobic, so I never thought that getting stuck in an elevator would be the best thing that ever happened to me. But it was. That’s because I got stuck with my stepdad, Stone. He did everything he could to keep me distracted. And I mean everything…

I never thought he'd see me naked... I’m home from college for Christmas, stepping into the shower when everything falls apart. Cold water shoots everywhere. I lose my balance and grab onto the shower curtain, but fall anyway. Of course it’s my stepdad who busts down the door, chest heaving as he assesses the situation. I’m naked and shivering on the floor. I thought I’d die of humiliation until I realize he’s hard as a rock.

When he kisses me at midnight, everything changes. Well, not quite midnight since the impromptu DJ at my mom’s Christmas party was off by an hour. But that doesn’t matter, because the kiss I share with my stepdad is so hot, it burns me from the inside out. But he’s been drinking champagne all night. Will he remember that kiss and the promise behind it in the morning?

Helping her stepdad get in shape...When Haylee's mom tells her stepdad that he should consider joining Haylee for a jog, he claims he's in good shape for his age. But then next morning, he's there bright and early to join her for a run. It starts out with him out of breath, but by the end, they're both panting.

Waking up in the middle of nowhere, Wisconsin on my eighteenth birthday isn't what I had in mind. I'm still in high school, still living with my mom and stepdad. I don't exactly feel like an adult. But when my stepdad walks in on me spread out on my bed, everything changes in an instant. He tells me to stop, but not for the reasons I think.
