Adam's wooing skills are pretty much non-existent, “you, uh, look different tonight,” Adam said, watching her." Adam is just romantic, “I can think of lots of other things to keep you awake in the afternoon. I bet there’s all sorts of hidden alcoves in that library, perfect for a sexy rendezvous.” I liked this book, I loved Adam.

I really enjoyed this book. The writing was superb and kept me not only interested the entire time but engrossed.

Melody is not a naive virgin, just a girl who fell for a guy years ago and finds no one else that measures up to share herself with. Adam is the playboy heartbreaker but finds Melody as intriguing now as she was years ago. Asked to help Melody with a makeover, Adam reluctantly agreed. But Adam cannot stand for Melody to get, want or desire anyone attention but his. Problem is, her brother is guys best friend and her family is his only one. He can't risk losing all that!

Great story that I highly recommend!

Thanks NetGalley!

Today I’m reviewing How to Seduce a Bad Boy by Traci Douglass, which is a new to me author, but on a plot that I have read time and again, and one that I will continue to read, as I think its every book nerds fantasy.

what plot could this be? but of course a Librarian falls in love with her long-term crush and who just happens to be the town bad boy, and she mounts a campaign to get him to fall in love with her too! But unlike other books, Traci Douglass has added her own spin on it, by being the brothers best friend.

Melody Bryant, our leading character is fed up of being single! but there is only one man she wanted! and the one that turned her down before 8 years before, Adam Foster! the man she blamed for making her head towards her crazy cat lady years!

How to Seduce a Bad Boy is a good book and one that in parts will have you laughing or crying, it’s predictable but sweet and it’s definitely a book I would read again.

I give How to Seduce a Bad Boy 4 stars

Loved this book! Melody thinks she'll be a spinster crazy cat lady librarian.....at the ripe old age of 25, so she propositions her brother's best friend, Adam, to help her change her style and her life. Adam has always been attracted to Melody, but as the town's resident bad boy and her brother's best friend, he's stayed away. When Melody put him on the spot, he said no, but then was afraid of what trouble she'd get into if she propositioned someone else...

This is the typical brother's best friend and younger sister trope, however it was very well written and so entertaining that I didn't care that it was predictable. Melody thinking she'd be a spinster at 25 made me want to throttle her and tell her to take her time, but it worked for the story. I loved the self discovery that Melody experienced and how her relationship with Adam developed.

If you enjoy the genre, you will love this book. This is the first book I've read by this author, but it won't be the last, as I'm looking forward to reading more of her work.

Eh this book was ok, very well written but not really my type of book, too idk nice? this is Mel and Adam book, they've been friends since childhood, mel had approached Adam to take her virginity when they were a little younger he flat out refused since he's her brothers best friend! Then he went in the service. Now years later he's back and Mel is still the dowdy librarian and still a virgin! Lol she wants Adam to help her be more sexy! Like I said it's an ok read just a little immature ? I'm sure it'll appeal to some just not to me! Thank you Netgalley and the publishers for sharing this book with me!

I love bad boy, friends to lovers, forbidden romances, and after reading the synopsis for ‘How to Seduce a Bad Boy’ I was excited to start reading. I struggled through the first few chapters, I felt that the author was trying too hard, and being overly descriptive. I struggled to relate to Melody, I found her a little bit needy and weak. That said, once I got into the crux of the story I started getting invested in Adam and Melody. Adam did in fact play the panty melting bad boy extremely well, and I must say, I can’t blame prudish Melody for having the hots for him. A quick, fun, flirty and enjoyable read. I received an advanced copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley. This is my honest review.

Melody is a spinster librarian and a virgin at 25. She has only liked one guy her whole life and he has just come back to town from serving in the army. But he is her brothers bestie and when she asks him to help her become sexy, he tries to resist but can't help himself.

I am not really sure what I thought of this story. It was well written and the characters were intelligent. I just found the story very predictable and I just felt it was your standard brother best friend type of romance with no real big surprises. At times I felt Melody was way too predictable. I did love her best friend though..

How to Seduce a Bad Boy tells the story of Mel and Adam - friends since childhood, one a good girl and the other a bad boy. Mel has always loved Adam, but since his best friend is her brother James, Adam has shied away. With Mel's 25th birthday approaching she decides to get a makeover and change her dating life. What happens next is a series of interesting events you will have to read about in the book ;)

I enjoyed this book a lot! The characters are funny and likable, the plot is easy to follow. I didn't see that much of a character development, but I don't think it is super necessary for a book like this. I really liked that in the end, Mel made everything work for her just as she liked and didn't change herself completely to achieve something that was possible for old Mel too.
