Series: Dangerous Book #3
Author: Eden Bradley
Genre: Romance, Erotic
Blurb: Being bad never felt so good…
Duff Stewart has two specialties: restoring vintage motorcycles and doing bad things to beautiful girls at New Orleans’s most notorious BDSM club. And there’s no girl he’d rather be with than the stunning Layla Chouset.
Layla has sworn off relationships with Dominant men, but there’s something about the gorgeous Scotsman, and he is determined to win her heart. She may agree to submit to his every want and desire, but can she submit to love…?
Thoughts: This was my first time reading a book by Eden Bradley, and my first thoughts were that readers who love Roni Loren will also really enjoy books by this author. Their writing styles are very similar and I can easily see readers loving Roni Loren as well. With Dangerously Bad, I honestly enjoyed the characters and their chemistry with each other, and the storyline really drew me in. I did enjoy the fact that they actually sat down and discussed terms, concessions, and rules beforehand before they became intimate with each other. Very quickly though I became really conflicted regarding one thing – the fact that Layla kept telling Duff that she was a dominant and not a submissive and he kept pushing her to submit to him and be submissive with him – and yet he refused adamantly to consider the exact same thing he was asking of her! She is supposed to concede to him, but he is unwilling to give her that same respect and trust in return. That was a big turn off for me. So much so that it almost ruined my enjoyment of the book.
I would definitely be willing to read other books by this author, but for me the issues I had reading the book were big enough to detract from my enjoyment of this one.
