About this ebook

Girl’s gone bad . . . for the town’s new golden boy in this “sweetly sexy treat” from the New York Times–bestselling author of A Home by the Sea (Booklist).

Maybe opposites don’t always attract. If they did, architect Olivia Sullivan would have run away with bad boy Rafe Russo when they were teenagers. Instead, Olivia has spent ten years dreaming up designs for a life that hasn’t gone the way she planned. Still reeling from her career’s implosion and her father’s death, Olivia thanks her lucky stars for the support of her three lifelong friends. But this good girl is through sitting on the sidelines. When Rafe returns to the beautiful Oregon coast where they grew up, her former flame ignites a new desire. Now Olivia must take a walk on the wild side to show the new deputy that in matters of love . . . being bad can feel very good.

Freshly back from Afghanistan, rugged ex-Marine and new deputy Rafe is done breaking laws and hearts. He’s always regretted leaving Olivia behind, but now she’s after adventure and he’d better proceed with caution. Because wanting her again might be easy, but fighting for a future together will be his biggest risk yet.

“The sparks start to fly . . . Every one has a dream, and these four girls are making theirs come true. Butterfly Cove sounds like a great place to live.” —Fresh Fiction

    This was a nice sweet romance between two old friends, one the town bad boy and the other the town's golden girl. Unfortunately, it wasn't for me. It was the third book in a series that revolves around four women who grew up together and now opened a yarn store with a care attached. I'm not a knitted and I think that's what this are geared towards cause once it started talking about yarns and patterns I kinda skipped ahead. The little side mystery about Olivia's father was wrapped up way too neatly in a few paragraphs, but it didn't really explain where his money went or what's in the safe security box. I really don't want to wait til the next book to have this story finished up. On a side note, my mom loved this book.

    3 STARSThis is a okay romance. I have only read one of the books before this and really don't remember a lot of it. So to me it read like someone thought it was too long and chopped parts of it off here and there. Maybe if you read all four books it wont feel like that.I like the characters and their friendships together. Would have like to have more of them.Olive gets fired and moves back home and on her way a mud slide happened in front of her. She could either hit a schoolbus or serve into another car. Which was a cop car. She is in a lot of pain. Olive recognizes Rafe. He was her good friend from when she was little to the night of her prom when he stood her up and left town. Nowhe is back home.Olive's father had died and left things in a mess. His money and hers as disappeared. Olive needs that money now that she does not have a job. Olive and friends have a goal to open and restore a old house and go into business together.Olive hears noises in her attic and Rafe does not want her to be alone. Rafe was the town's bad boy. When he turned 18 he joined the military and now he has come back home. He does not plan to pick up with Olive again. His first day home and working for the Sheriff he runs into Olive. He has secrets.Recommend you read other books first. I hope the next book answers the questions I still have. Does have love scenes that I skipped over. Would have liked a bigger book that answered more of the questions.I was given this ebook to read and asked to give honest review of it by Netgalley and Harlequin.publication: September 24th 2013 by Harlequin HQN 336 pages ISBN:037377785X
