Seducing Mr. Wrong has never felt so right...
Prim and proper art gallery coordinator Elle Walser is no good at seducing men. Heck, she’s been throwing hints at her boss for months, but he’s completely clueless. Desperate to escape her mother’s matchmaking efforts, she comes up with a plan—buy some lingerie and climb into her boss’s bed. The plan goes brilliantly…until she accidentally seduces a sexy stranger instead.
Bad boy nightclub mogul Gabe Schultz just had the best almost-sex of his life. Too bad the smoking hot blonde thought he was his brother and bolted before he could finish what they started. Though her holier-than-thou attitude puts a serious damper on his mood, Gabe’s never been one to give up on something he wants. And he wants Elle. But does a man who lives on the dark side really have a chance with a proper lady?
This book got me at the "until she accidentally seduces a sexy stranger instead." Ha! I didn't expect to like this book as much as I did. I actually loved it. It was short, but at the same time it was brimmed with vivid characters and an engaging plot. I couldn't stop reading it.
First of all, I gotta say this book was just hilarious. Especially at the beginning. You see, Elle the main character planned to wear some lingerie and climb into her boss's bed. Except the guy sleeping on the bed was the boss's brother. Basically she almost did it with the wrong (not to mention total stranger) guy. I don't know why but I couldn't help giggling at that scene. I would have been MORTIFIED. And so embarrassed I would never show my face again. Not that I would seduce a guy when I'm this young. But still.
Gabe was the ultimate bad boy. A very sexy bad boy. And you guys know how much I love them, right? Yep. So obviously I loved Gabe. I also adored the female lead, Elle. Even though Katee Roberts created characters that are somewhat cliche (bad broken boy + good proper girl) she made up for it by adding very realistic flaws and quirks. There were times where I wanted to slap some of them (not telling who), but I still found myself rooting for them the whole way through.
I couldn't really say anything bad about the writing. It was just spectacular. Even though this was a short book, it still showed her writing talent and how she can make us the readers care so deeply about the characters. I loved each and every one of the characters.Also the pacing was brilliant; this story flowed exceptionally well.
And I gotta say. She knows how to write a good ole sexy scene. Seriously. Whoa. They were steamy and omg hot hot hot. I was giggling and blushing like an idiot. He he. Can I say they were my favourite scenes out of the whole book? ;)
So if you love short adult contemporary romance, you should be reading WRONG BED, RIGHT GUY right now. Seriously, you do NOT want to miss this.
Thank you to publicist Jaime and Entangled Publishing for sending me this for review! :)
