Exposing the Bad Boy

Base Jumping...who'd have thought I'd like a book about jumping off buildings, antennas, span and earth. Most people who know me know that I am so far away from an adrenaline junkie that I wouldn't even watch my hubby go on a tandem jump. He had to organise it on the sly without me knowing and tell me after the fact (my request). When he finally came to pick me up from a pre-organised distraction at my sister's place, he told me what he'd done and I burst into tears. So, adrenaline junkie I am not.

This story is about Pike and Ellie. Pike is a base jumper who did it under the cover of darkness because it is illegal. One night, someone tapes him and he is "noticed". Ellie works for Maximal a company that sells sports drinks. Her boss wants her to ooze and booze Pike to get him to sign a contract for endorsements and to jump legally on film. Ellie thinks this will be Pike's dream come true, Pike not so much.

There is an attraction straight from the start between these two. They're young and attractive and could have anyone they wanted, but they can't get each other off their minds. There was lots of chemistry between Pike and Ellie, with a slow building connection. This is a NA book, which mean there is the usual drama, jealousy and conflict, but in this case it is not over the top. Thank goodness because I am not a fan of angst driven plots.

There was action, adventure, excitement and heat which made Exposing the Bad Boy a great read for me. I don't actively seek out New Adult books, but when the lovely Nora Flite offered me a complimentary copy to read and review, I jumped at the chance. The cover and plot drew me in big time.

Complimentary ARC given by the author for an honest review.
