Review: Make Me Bad

Make Me Bad Make Me Bad by R.S. Grey
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Madison is that romance cliché, the small-town virgin librarian who still lives at home with her father and brother (both police officers).

Ben is the spoilt rich kid who was always in trouble with the Police chief (Madison's father) as a teenager. He may have settled down now and started his own law practice in town but there is still a great deal of animosity between him (and all the other rich kids) and the Police. Ben gets into a fight with a former school mate in a local bar, which leads to him being arrested and sentenced to community service.

Madison celebrates her 25th birthday at the library with her gay BFF, her disinterested intern, and an ancient colleague who makes her a birthday cake using spelt. Rock 'n roll her life ain't, then and there she wishes on her birthday candle that her life had more excitement. Then on the way home from the library, clutching the inedible cake because she's too soft-hearted to let her colleague find it in the rubbish, she is attacked by a man wielding a gun and rescued by Ben! When Ben then turns up for community service at the library Madison decides this is A Sign and she enlists him in her plans to tick off a Bad Girl bucket list by getting a tattoo and losing that pesky v-card.

What follows is a predictable rom-com. If you can overlook the clichés this light-hearted romance is perfect holiday reading.
