Bad Boys Down Under

Summary: Wonderful stories of some passionate Australians
Review: Bad Boys Down Under is one of the best Bad Boys books I've read in awhile. I'm a big fan of Brava's Bad Boys themed books, but as of late none of them have really caught my attention. Well, that all changed with Nancy Warren's latest book. Each story in this book had me hooked from the first page to the last and I thought each story was truly original and entertaining.

My personal favorite of the three stories, "Sizzling in Sydney" was the first of the book. It features marketing wizard Jennifer Talbot and surfboard millionaire Cameron Crane. Cam knows he needs Jen's help with his campaign to provide surf boards to the U.S., he just never knew how much he would come to want sexy Jen for herself. Unfortunately, there are a few problems standing in their way, not the least of which is Jen's engagement to another man. Will Cam and Jen find their happily-ever-after?

Like I said, this was my favorite of the book. Jen and Cam were great couples and Cam was an amazing hero. He was sweet, funny, and not afraid to prove to Jen that he was the man for her. There were lots of laughs in this story, along with Nancy Warren's trademark sensuality. A great story that will satisfy any reader.

"Surfer Boy" is the second story in this book, and it is another great read. Steel worker Steve Jackson has taken a part time modeling career with Crane surfboards, to promote the boards in California. He arrives in California and has quite the first encounter with ad executive Lise Atwater. From then on, the heat just keeps going up as these two great characters fall desperately in love. But how will they be able to stay together, when they live on opposite ends of the world.

This was a great story too. You will not be let down as you see these two characters drop their masks in order to find happiness with each other.

The last story is "The Great Barrier" and yet again, this is a superb example of Nancy Warren's story telling abilities. Mark Forsythe is feeling down since his ex-fiancee, Jen Talbot, dumped him for Cameron Crane. He's determined to drop his good boy image and live it up in Australia because he doesn't think he has anything to lose. Women don't seem to like the good guys in life. Bronwyn Spencer is assigned by her half-brother Cameron Crane to watch over Mark while he's in Australia. She just never realized how attracted she was going to be to the accountant.

This is probably the steamiest of the stories, but yet again, it is filled with emotions and lots of love and laughter. There isn't a story in this collection that will leave you disappointed. I can only hope that future "Bad Boys" titles live up to Nancy Warren's Bad Boys Down Under.

Review: Cam knows surfing, but he's not sure what to make of Jen...a woman's who's come to Australia to help him figure out how to take his surfing empire to the US. She's there for business, but Cam soon has other plans!

Steve is sent to the US to represent Cam's surfing company in the new ad campaign. Lise is supposed to turn the rugged iron worker into a model. But rather than turning him into anything, he's turning her on!

Cam's little sister, Bron, is known as a party girl. But when she meets Crane's new accountant nothing seems to balance. She's not sure what to make of their instant attraction. But lucky for her, Mark knows how things add up!

Three couples, three matches that seem less than perfect, turn out to be perfectly wonderful stories of surf, sun...and a healthy dose of love! Nancy Warren shines like never before. Bad Boys have never been so good!

Summary: A Great Aussie Collection!!!
Review: This was a fun book. The three stories penned by the talented Nancy Warren are not only different as far as setting, but the hero's are as unique as the country of OZ!

I highly recommend this short set of stories that tie together perfectly (it starts with Sizzling Sydney and Cam and Jennifer, and ends with Cam's sister Browyn and Jennifers ex-Mark) and you are left with a smile on your face and if your like me a hugh desire to head on down to Aussie Land!

The stories are fun fast paced reads and are perfect for anytime. Ms. Warren has established herself as a very talented author and one that I recommend as a fun way to pass time.

Summary: Bad Boys, Bad Boys....hmmmm
Review: What can I say? I LOVED this book! The characters were seemed so real the I felt like I got to know them. They each had insecurities and flaws that made them more human to me. The stories themselves (3 short novellas which are interconnected but distinctly different)were entertaining and interesting.
Two of the stories (the first and third) take place "Down Under" in Australia and were highly entertaining and romantic. I wasn't actually sure that I would like Cameron Crane upon first "meeting" him but grew to like him right along with Jennifer. The second and sweetest story was set in America and had a hunky bad boy named Steve as the lead man - yummy! The third story had a double connection to the first and was funny at times and poignant at others.
This is a must read for romance fans! If you've not given Ms. Warren's books a chance before, here's the perfect opportunity! I'd warn you though, you might become addicted - especially to those wonderful alpha males / bad boys! Definitely better than chocolate! (And sexy too!!)
