4.5 Smooches
Synopsis
From New York Times Bestselling authors Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward, comes a sexy new standalone novel.
He was someone who belonged in my wildest fantasies instead of a rest stop in the middle of Nebraska.
A sexy, cocky, Australian named Chance was the last person I expected to run into on my cross-country drive.
When my car broke down, we made a deal. Next thing I knew, we were traveling together, spending sexually-tense nights in hotels and taking unplanned detours.
My ordinary road trip turned into the adventure of a lifetime. It was all fun and games until things got intense.
I wanted him, but Chance wouldn’t make a move. I thought he wanted me too, but something was holding him back.
I wasn’t supposed to fall for the cocky bastard, especially when I knew we’d be going our separate ways.
All good things must come to an end, right?
Except our ending was one I didn’t see coming.
Review
“Cocky Bastard had manners to go with his arrogance.”
Cocky Bastard was so much more than a fun ride with a hot guy. Filled with quick one-liners, sexual tension, big surprises and an angst filled story, Cocky Bastard delivered on the promise to be un-put-downable!
“I see through you. The harder you try to be good, the more you’re starving to be bad.”
Chance and Aubrey meet on a road trip and when his motorcycle breaks down and she needs help they end of riding together to California. It is clear that Chance need to get to CA by a certain date but along the way the arrogant and reckless Chance helps uptight Aubrey open up and see that there is more to life than following a set plan. But nothing is ever as it seems and as they go from fighting to friends to an undeniable attraction my love for these two only increased as they grew closer!
“Attraction is way too tame for what happens when I look at you. I want to fucking conquer you. Watch your beautiful face as I sink deep inside of you so hard it borders on pain.”
The sexual tension and witty banter had me from the start but then I got to the 50% and there was absolutely no way I would be getting anything accomplished in real life until this book was finished. I was not expecting it to go where it went and I was so excited and surprised. Chance, the sexy bad boy Australian and Aubrey the woman who desperately wants to be free from the life shes been groomed for make a dynamic duo along with a goat and plenty of hijinks and feels!
“She was my woman. Whether or not I was her man was the question that remained.”
Making a book extremely funny while delivering on a story that provokes emotion and has me on the edge of my seat is a near impossible task that Penelope Ward and Vi Keeland did seamlessly! While the cover is hot and grabs you in no way can you tell the entirety of feelings you will go through while reading this story. I highly recommend it!
