Although it was a romance, it was a bit too heavy on the sex for me and I started skipping bits. That being said, I loved drunk Rusty, and all the blog comments--those were some die-hard romantics and amazing women.

I ended up having a love/hate relationship with this book. Bad Girl is a short novel about a young woman who watches her neighbors through a telescope she hides on her balcony. One day, she is caught and the rest is history.
What I liked about this story? The sex scenes were pretty well written and, in the beginning, inventive. After awhile, I actually became bored with them because that was the majority of the text. I understand that its an erotica novel, but there was hardly any pauses or breaks between each sex scene.
What I didnt like about this novel? It seemed pretty unrealistic. The main character, Sandy, excuses her late-night hobby by saying she is just looking out for her neighbors. While that may be a good excuse, everybody can see right through it, including Zeke. When Zeke calls her out on her hobby, she reacts pretty much the way I suspect any woman would: she obeys. This created some delicious scenes. However, Zeke finds out about her hobby because he accidently sees her moving her telescope back into her house. What I find comical is that he threatens her for spying on her neighbors when he pretty much stalks Sandy after initially seeing her. Not only does he do a background check, he literally stalks her when she leaves her house to go to work or hang out with her friends. He takes mental notes of certain attributes which come in handy later after the two actually meet.
That brings us to Sandy and Zeke meeting. At first, Zeke was only planning on scaring her out of her hobby and she only obeyed so she wouldnt be exposed. That escalated into amazing phone sex. Apparently, this phone sex was so awesome that the two couldnt stay away and had to meet so they could have incredible real sex. This part of the story progressed so quickly, I felt that Reynolds rushed it just to get to the sex scenes.
I also felt she rushed the emotional part of their relationship. Zeke, who is keeping an eye on one of Sandys neighbors for his job, is immediately defensive and protective of Sandy when said neighbor, who happens to be a mobster, shows interest in her. I can understand wanting to protect someone from harm, but it felt as if Zeke was more emotional involved instead of just being a good Samaritan.
All in all, what little plotline there was, made the pauses in between sex scenes interesting enough. The sex scenes were creative and tasty, but actually became tedious after awhile. Not necessarily a novel to take serious, but entertaining enough.

His book was good but honestly some of the wordings I got ls on and some parts were odd to me but overall I enjoyed it. The sex scenes were good and the chemistry between the two even with the different languages was good. I enjoyed it

I found this book to be absolutely thrilling. Alex's endeavors to do good were well portrayed. I also got some Matrix feelings from the Science Fiction element. However, I feel like the drug abuse and sex was a bit over done. This book was still very good.
