Publisher's summary

Russ
They call me a bad boy, and 13 years ago, they would have been right.
I’ve done things I’m not proud of.
Served time.
Broken hearts and bones alike.
But I’m a changed man now. I don’t break the law for a living anymore; I write books about guys like me falling in love with other guys. It’s as close to a happily ever after as I think I’ll get....
Until Colton shows up in my remote cabin in the middle of a snowstorm, so timid and young and sweet.
I’ve given up my wicked ways, but damn if he doesn’t make me want to do bad, bad things....

Colton
I didn’t mean to get lost on my way to the big New Year’s Eve party, and I definitely didn’t mean to drive my car into a snowbank, but here I am in the middle of nowhere, stranded in front of a creepy cabin, about to freeze to death.
The only way I’ll make it through the night is if I go inside, but there’s no telling who might be in there. It very well could be a serial killer, or a horror movie monster....
Or a bearded, tattooed bad boy with a big secret who’ll steal my heart and make me never want to leave.

Bad Boy is the first book in the Masters of Romance series, where romance authors don’t just write about happily ever afters - they live them. Get ready for love, laughter, and some serious steam. No cheating and no love triangles, guaranteed. Bad Boy can be heard as a stand-alone, but it’s way more fun to binge them all. Which author are you most excited to see get his HEA?

More please!

This book is HOT! Reformed bad boy + anxious sweet baby Angel = YES please. I loved everything about this book. Colton’s fear brain is the best. I laughed out loud a few times. Buy this book. You won’t be sorry. Michael Ferraiuolo is one of the best narrators. His voice is sooooo dreamy. I love it.

Laugh out loud good and sweet. (and very hot!)

I love this author and this narrator so much! I also love a good redemption story and this one is a great one. My heart broke in parts for Russ because the local sheriff refuses to believe anything about him but the worst. No matter his words or actions, it never seems to be enough...until Colton. Colton might get lost on his way to a party but he finds his way home in so many other ways. These two are so good for each other! And the chat conversations are hilarious, especially when Michael Ferraiuolo gives each one their own voice. Absolutely fabulous audiobook!!!!

Hard to Rate This One

I would rate this 3.5, but I rounded up since I really like this author. I have loved listening to all of Piper Scott's and Emma Alcott's audiobooks. Unfortunately, I only liked this one. I loved the fact that they were snowed in together and that there's an age gap. Colton being a virgin was a nice surprise, but they jumped into bed way too fast. I know it's fiction, but I was taken aback. I felt like there wasn't much plot, which it's what I expect from her books. As always, Michael Ferraiuolo's narration is spot on. I will definitely listen to the other author stories.

Excellent novel

I was very surprised by this novel , it was very good , the performance was superb , and the story was more than what I expected. I had to get through the first chapters to like it, the beginning is a little bleak.

Facing Fears

This story is full of feels. There are so many strong emotions. I love how Russ helps Colton to grow. And I appreciate how they developed Colton's dad in the story as well. There are so many layers to this story and I can see the set up for some more wonderful stories in this series. It is hard to say much about this story without revealing too much. But I love this story.
I listened to the Audible version which was well done and a great listen.

great fantasy story

I liked this one, and I usually dont like insta love stories. I saw one reader who couldn't get past certain parts so I had to see for myself. There was insta love and hot scenes,aspects wasnt accurate for real life but for a hot quick tale it was perfect.

Wow loved this

Wow loved this story. The storyline was fantastic and has lots of adventure and very intriguing. It has ups and downs with love and laughter. The characters Russ and Colton are adorable together. Amazing and the narration was spot on.

Absolutely loved this!

I absolutely loved this sweet opposites attract romance.

The characters were likeable and well fleshed out and the writing style was engaging.

The storyline was interesting and the author's writing style appealed to me.

The narration was enjoyable and engaging as well

Loved!

I loved this book. I'm a sucker for a bad boy redemption story and this one catches you all in the feels. Russ is a wall of muscle and is intimidating with his tattooed body. But when he finds Colton in his living room and he doesn't know who he is, the chemistry between these two is instant and hot. I love how Russ is so nurturing and sweet, always encouraging Colton. And I love how Colton believes in Russ. Family members try to stop these two from finding their HEA, but like Russ' characters he writes, they fight hard for redemption and get their HEA in the end.

If you like audiobooks, I highly suggest this one. The narration is perfect. I like this series so far and look forward to the rest.

Sweet and Funny

I loved this audiobook. The plot was a great balance of comedy, heart-warming moments, and just a little bit of angst. I was hooked right from the start and genuinely enjoyed it all the way through. As always, Michael did a fantastic job with the narration and brought the characters to life. Overall, I highly recommend this audiobook.
