Once Upon a Bad Boy by Melonie Johnson

Once Upon a Bad Boy (Sometimes in Love, #3)

by Melonie Johnson

Former soap opera star Sadie Gold is determined to overcome her reputation as a spoiled rich girl with more connections than talent. She’s thrilled to score a coveted role in a blockbuster movie - until she learns that the stunt man training her is Bo Ibarra, the guy Sadie lost her heart to years ago.

Sadie and Bo haven’t seen each other in a decade, and their reunion is bringing up desires they haven’t felt since they were teenagers. But Sadie has been holding onto a secret from their past she is desperate to keep hidden.

When a tabloid splashes the secret across the headlines, both of them are shaken from the fallout. Can Sadie convince Bo to take a chance on them again? One thing’s for sure, happy endings don’t come as easily in real life as they do in the movies.

Sadie Gold is making a transition from soap star to movie actress and Bo Ibarra is someone from her past that just happens to own a movie stunt business in Chicago where her new film is being filmed on location. Bo is also the stunt coordinator for the movie! What a surprise for Sadie because over 10 years ago Bo abruptly broke up with Sadie and left her heartbroken.

What follows is a hot romance that is blush-worthy. I loved the back and forth between Bo and Sadie, the romance was predictable but sweet and the story-line took second place to the love story but that was not a bad thing.

This book was an enjoyable read for me, predictable but still a nice way to pass an afternoon. This review was originally posted on Fictional Reviewer
