Loved this book!

How could you not love a book that has a sexy, Italian alpha male!?

This is Nico and Emma’s story.

Dumped by her fiancé because he said that they lack chemistry in the bedroom, Emma refuses to let “the one” get away. So when her brother’s friend unexpectedly shows up to check on her, she sees a way to win back her future husband to be.

Nico has always had a thing for Emma but has refused to act on it because there are too many factors that have convinced him to stay away.

That is, until Emma asks him to become her teacher in the bedroom. The proposition gives him what he wants and her back her fiancé without involving love into the equation.

But what happens when lines are blurred and lessons suddenly don’t feel like lessons anymore?

This was a refreshing storyline on a familiar trope, with likeable characters, lots and lots of steamy scenes and a happily ever after that will make you smile.

I would highly recommend this book for your next romantic, sizzling read.

Hot! Hot! Hot! Nico and Emma make enough heat to burn holes in the pages of this book. He is all smoldering, alpha, Italian male. Emma becomes his star pupil and teachers pet. In the end they both learn the valuable lesson that the heart always wins.

A sexy, and sweet romance!! Also a new author to me !! I was hooked from the start,I really enjoyed it !!!

Oh Nico, you beautiful, unfortunately made up man. He was my favorite part of the book. Emma was good too, as well as the storyline. I really liked this book. It’s my second by this author and each were equally enjoyable. Would recommend!

Overload on the spice factor yay! ... mixed thoughts on the characters, especially Emma.

I’ve been a fan of Carmen Falcone’s writing and I usually love her stories. This one, however, was not on the top of my list. There was just something about it that I can’t put my finger on.

One of my big problems was that I just did not connect with the characters, mainly Emma. She came off immature and I don’t know what else. There was just something about her I didn’t care for.

Nico, he was your typical sexy hot stuff bachelor who loved women and had a crush on Emma. So he was more than willing to take her under his wing and show her the ropes when it came to keeping her man.

The author definitely layered on the sexy heat in this one. If only for the hot sex, this book is definitely worth picking up. Because Nico definitely has the moves. But like in all romances that tends to backfire on you, in more ways than one!

The plot was great with some pretty good twists, but a lot of common threads too. Overall it’s a great read and definitely one to pick up for the smoking sex and heat factor!

Good Girl's Bad Lessons was a a good sexy novel. Characters were likable and easy to follow.

Emma's boyfriend breaks up with her because they are not compatible in bed. She is left heart broken. Emma's solution is to figure out how to be better in bed and get her boyfriend back. She approaches her brother's best friend Nico so he can teach. The lessons turn into something much more.. The sex was hot and steamy, overall a good sexy read.

Emma makes a deal with Nico for him to help her with her sex appeal so she can win her boyfriend back. In turn Emma will help Nico by introducing him to a man who owns a property he desperately wants. The only problem is ... can she keep her heart in check because even though Nico is a hunk, he’s a playboy that has no intentions of ever settling down.

I couldn’t help falling for Nico ... he’s every woman’s dream guy. And Emma was just so cute as she became stronger with Nico’s help. Although this plot idea is not a new one, I found that Ms Falcone wrote it in a way that had my full attention. My heart just kept cheering for them to have a happily-ever-after ... with each other.

Good Girl's Bad Lessons was a quick, easy and sexy read. That had minimal angst, likable characters and lots of heat. Not to mention enough of a storyline to easily keep me reading and I would happily recommend it to others.

Emma is the good girl to whom Nico teaches bad lessons. Emma’s fiancé breaks up with her because he says that she is sexually boring. In an effort to get him back, she asks her brother’s best friend, Nico, to teach her how to be more sexual. Nico agrees provide that Emma introduce her to a client of hers who owns property that Nico wants to buy. While their relationship has a definite end date, they both begin to fall in love. Nico doesn’t believe that he has what it takes to be part of serious relationship so he ends the relationship with aemma as planned. Much to his surprise, he is miserable without Emma. He reaches out to his best friend and Emma’s brother to ask for his permission to propose to Emma. Emma accepts his proposal p, so they have their HEA.

When Emma’s fiancé breaks off with her because he felt they lacked chemistry, she convinced her brothers best friend, Nico to teach her the art of seducing and pleasing a man.
The plan is to learn the art of seduction for a month while her ex fiancé is out of town, but a month is a long time and plans can change :).
I enjoyed reading good girls bad lessons and I loved Nico. The chemistry between Nico and Emma is sweaty, steamy and oh so hot. Other than the chemistry, there is also an emotional touch to the story and couple of twists that come as a complete surprise. A book I completely enjoyed reading.

Good Girl’s Bad Lessons was a fun, sexy, hot and spicy read. I enjoyed this story quite a bit. Look forward to reading more from Carmen Falcone.

1.5 stars

I found it difficult to connect with the characters and writing style of this book.

Nico's reason for wanting to purchase the house and his backstory were interesting. They did help you to better understand some of his motivations and how he became closed off to the possibility of love.

The plot felt a bit rushed and like there wasn't much relationship development past the physical.

Unfortunately, this was just not the book for me.

I give this book 5 stars. The storyline between Nico and Emma was well written. He is her brothersbest friend. She is engaged to Simon unit he breaks up with her. This book was a great HOT read. I recommend this book. You will love this amazing story. I voluntarily reviewed this Advanced Reader Copy of this book.

I received an ARC of this book, through Netgalley, in exchange for an honest review.

One of the things that I love about the ARC program is that I am constantly discovering new authors in my favorite genres. Once again Ms. Falcone was a new author for me and one that I very much enjoyed.

This story is a somewhat predictable HEA, although there are one or two curveballs thrown in there to keep it fresh. I very much enjoyed the writer’s style and the book flowed easily, keeping my interest while still making it a pretty quick read. The characters were well developed, there is everything you need in a good romance; angst, heartache, best friends sister trouble, outside characters adding color and storyline, oh and did I mention, GOOD sex?

Plenty of hot scenes, each one very different from the last so you never feel as if you’re reading the same scene over and over again. For the most part believable given each person’s experience level.

My main reason for not giving a higher star rating is that I did feel as if the timeline on which things happened or maybe the speed in which a few things developed was a little unrealistic for me. I always keep in mind that this is a story, written as fiction for entertainment, however, there are also things that you feel from each character, that give you a sense of how reserved or “full throttle” they may be and the speed at which a few things developed such as discussing the deal to Emma being ready to hop in bed, I can’t say a lot without giving away parts of the story, but I did feel at times as if there were things that were more rushed than they should have been, almost as if you’d skipped a page or a chapter of build up.

I would definitely recommend this book and this author, I just felt as if there were a few things between character personalities and timelines that didn’t totally mesh for me.

I received a free ARC version of the book in exchange for a honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Simon is an arrogant jerk (using polite language). He broke up with his girlfriend of two years because she wasn't good in bed. After this, Emma's goal in life is to become " a sexpert and win Simon back". I lost all respect for this woman the second she thought this. Simon is a jerk but she's an idiot for wanting him back. Which leads her to Nico, her brothers best friend. She wants sex lessons. Nico is more then willing to help her as he's had a major hard on for her for years. She gets what she wants and he gets what he wants. Win win.

The plot line is not unique. It's been over done. However, the author did a good job. I just didn't like Emma for wanting Simon back. I understand they had alot of history but how he broke up with her was horrible. He was nice about the fact that he loved her but sex was more important.

Nico was more then adamant that he didn't want marriage and kids and yet Emma held out hope with him as well toward the end. He never let's on that Emma may have changed his mind. And again Simon comes into the picture and again I really dislike how Emma handled the situation.

Overall the book was well done but the plot line is nothing new. I disliked some of the characters which made the book hard for me to read however some people may enjoy the book more then me.

A romance full of lessons, expectations, love, and skill. One woman will discover that it isn't her skills that are lacking, it's the man who's giving her the review. This smokin' hot read is the perfect dessert to your bookcation adventure.

Holy smokes Batman! This was sexy and hot as hell!

Ms. Falcone did a bang up job of bringing this story to life. I was hooked from the get-go and while I quickly inhaled it, I was also in no way ready for it too end...too much goodness to let go of! I admit there was some adjustment time needed to return to rl for me...kudos Ms. Falcone!

Sexy and hot, this is a spicy romance that I just loved. Emma is the good girl who gets dumped by her fiance for not being hot enough in bed. Nico is the bad boy millionaire and best friend to Emma's brother. When Emma shares her personal secret, he takes it as his person mission to prove her wrong. As they begin an unlikely relationship focused on sex, somehow they share bits of themselves they've never shared with another soul.

This is every bit as spicy and hot as you would expect from one of the author's sexy titles, however, the characters have more depth that made them feel real. I found myself invested in their story and wanting them to have a HEA ending, despite all the obstacles in their way. This is my favorite of her sexy reads thus far. Truly, the only negative for me was referring to Emma's vagina as a "kitty" - that was just weird and distracted me from the story.

Put this one at the top of your TBR list. The author is on my must read authors' list.

I know it's October, and it's time for horror and mysteries (but honestly, when isn't it?), but I can't fully let go of my romance! Good Girl's Bad Lessons was a fun and quick read. There were definitely some aspects about it that I did not enjoy (hence, my 3 star rating on Goodreads - not bad, but not great).

The story is about Emma being dumped by her fiancé for lack of "sexual compatibility" is really the best way to describe it. Feeling low, but determined to win back her fiancé, Emma begins a sexual relationship with her brother's best friend, Nico. Nico finds Emma hard to resist as he is quite attracted to her, of course.

Emma is a sweet and caring character and Nico is a bad boy who takes what he wants. They are perfect opposites attract pairing. The details that bothered me about the story have more to do with the pace of the story - things move along SUPER quick, and I felt a bit of whiplash as to how everything started. I guess the best way to describe it would be that I wasn't given enough time or information to care about Emma and Nico as individuals before I was thrown into this set up they have.

Another thing that bothered me was the use of certain dialogue.

*WARNING: I'M GONNA TALK ABOUT THE SEX*

I was super irritated to hear Emma's vagina/pussy/etc. referred to as her "kitty". I'm sorry - no. lol

Nico loves dirty talk, and some of it was pretty good...some of it really wasn't. To each their own!

*COME BACK TO ME PEOPLE WHO SKIPPED THE SEXY PARTS*

This book has a fantastic rating on Goodreads, so feel free to ignore me. The story had a lot of things I love: opposites attract trope, fake relationship trope, and the reformed "bad boy" trope. The execution, for me, left a lot to be desired.

I recommend the book to all romance readers, especially those that enjoy the steamy scenes the best lol
