Book Wenches Review
Dating someone new can be both exciting and stressful at the same time, because you want to make a good impression and show off your best assets, but you also want to be honest without scaring off the other person. Sometimes that results in holding back too much information and pushing the other person away; this is Peter's conundrum. When first reading this story, Peter comes off as a bit of a stalker, but as you get to know him more, you realize that he does have the best intentions. Katie didn't really leave him any choice but to approach her in this way. It seems as though he is fully prepared to back off if he ended up scaring her instead of igniting her curiosity, and this is what saved him from being a creepy stslker. I loved that he approaches her with so much confidence without being cocky and overly aggressive. He also does an excellent job of seducing her and showing her how much he really does care, all while fulfilling her fantasies and making her want to know him more. At first, Katie struck me as a bit dense and shallow. She gives herself up pretty easily to a guy who piques her interest while claiming to know her. I kept thinking that this wasn't a safe move for any woman. But then again this is a fantasy, and the added bit of danger is part of the appeal. Also, I found it hard to believe that she wouldn't recognize Peter's voice at the very least or catch on after his many hints, which left me wondering if she ever really cared about him. This story takes the reader through a large range of feelings. The first part of the book is set at a costume party at a hotel and it sets a tone of fantasy, romance and adventure all at once. Locking eyes with a mysterious masked man across the room and feeling your body spark to life is both sexy and erotic. Heading up to a hotel room for a secretive encounter with a stranger is hot and exciting. The second part of the book happens at Pete's home for the big reveal, and this is where things get very personal and romantic. Be My Bad Boy is a steamy, romantic story that is sure to pique your curiosity and leave you feeling satisfied.
