My Step Baby - 9 Book Mega Collection by Calvin Cox

Three forbidden houses. Three different kinds of “step.” One appetite that does not stop at a first child. This mega anthology gathers every volume of *My Stepson’s Baby*, *My Stepbrother’s Baby*, and *My Stepdad’s Baby*—nine books of deliberate breeding, pregnancy, birth, and the next claim that follows. In *My Stepson’s Baby*, a stepmother stops pretending the heat in her house is someone else’s problem. She asks her adult stepson for a child. He does not treat it like a dare. What starts as a secret in an empty marriage becomes a body that shows, a baby that arrives, and a second campaign that refuses to wait for anyone’s permission. By the end of the trilogy the house does not belong to the story they told the neighbors. It belongs to the man who kept her full and the children who prove it. In *My Stepbrother’s Baby*, Nora and Cole were never supposed to share more than a last name. They share a bed instead, then a pregnancy, then the ugly work of keeping that pregnancy when family walks back in. The series follows the first test through labor and the hunger that comes after the hollow. He does not pull out. She does not ask him to. The word stepbrother survives only as a joke the rooms have already outgrown. In *My Stepdad’s Baby*, Ivy is twenty-two and Dean is forty-one when her mother leaves the country for seven months. The kitchen is where she says it. The master bed is where he answers. Harlow is born. Nell follows. A third pregnancy is already underway when the suitcase hits the hall. Maren can hate the layout. She cannot unmake it. Nine volumes. One collection. If you want polite distance and a fade to black, this is not your stack. If you want the full arc—first night, first line on a stick, first cry, and the next time he puts her on her back—this is the house. Buy it if you intend to stay until the last door shuts.
