Good Boy (Wags, #1)

by Elle Kennedy and Sarina Bowen

This book came along at the perfect time for me. 2017 has been a bit of a rough and tumble year already and I needed a light and uplifting read. Now, let me be clear, I adore both of these authors, I’ve read pretty much everything they’ve written and I’ve loved it all. But I’m here to tell you that this book is something special. The kicker is, I wasn’t really sure how this book would work for me. Normally I don’t do well with guys like Blake or as we are somewhat led to believe he is in HIM and US. You know the funny guy, the sometimes annoying one and he knows he’s hot. But lo and behold, Bowen and Kennedy gifted us with Blake Riley and I’ll be forever grateful.

Yes, he is HILARIOUS and good looking and CHARMING but the also cares very deeply for his friends and family. Jess comes from an equally loving family but is struggling to find her path once and for all and for her, Blake just isn’t part of that plan. To his credit, he gives her the space she needs to become the person she wants to be. There’s none of the crazy alpha asshole posturing, YOU MY WOMAN. WE HAVE THE SEX AND YOU DO WHAT I SAY. Nope. There is so much funny in the book and not in a crazy over the top way.

As I read this book and laughed my ass off, I kept thinking that this may be the best book I’ve read by both of these authors and that I figured this book would end up on my best of 2017 list. Please, read this book. You won’t regret it. You’ll even come out of reading this with a new vocabulary. The word CHEEZUS has permanently taken root in my everyday language.

BLAKE RILEY MAKES ME SMILEY!
