read on my iPhone
2018 Createspace Independent
268 pgs.
Adult romance
Finished 12/17/2018
Goodreads rating: 4.19 - 461 ratings
My rating:  3.5

First line/s:  "Eight inches of wood has never looked quite so terrifying."

My comments:  I guess I'm going nuts.  I'm getting soft, too  Or perhaps I'm just in the mood for something different, light, fun, and sexy because this is the second one like that I've read in the last 24 hours!  So ridiculously unreal and deliciously fun.  However, it does get particularly tiresome that all the heroines have incredible bodies, are absolutely gorgeous, and are as smart as whips.  AND one or both of the protagonists are usually extremely wealthy (I'm not going to complain about the rock hard abs or the ultra-superior....other....parts....)  Bad me...

Goodreads synopsis:  He’s the bad boy … but I’m the one breaking all the rules. 
          I’ve always been the quintessential good girl. I don’t just follow the rules — I write them. As an advice columnist, I’m always telling people how to not screw up their lives. 
          So you’d think I’d know better than to bang some random guy in a bar bathroom. 
          But nope. Apparently not. 
          Now I’ve got even bigger problems, though. Because it turns out that wasn’t just some random guy. It was Tyler Grant. Rich. Playboy. Devastatingly gorgeous. Oh, and the publisher of my new dating advice book. 
          All my instincts are telling me to run like hell. It’s what I’d advise anyone else to do. 
          But nope. I’ve had a taste, and I’m hooked. 
          Now I’m calling him at ungodly hours and showing up at his house drunk and begging for sex and tacos. In other words, breaking every rule in my own damn book. 
          Of course, you don’t have to be an advice columnist to know a bad boy and a good girl are never going to work out. Someone’s going to get their heart broken. 
          And my guess? It isn’t going to be him.
