This story is absolutely amazing. Parker and Lake are just delicious characters. This story takes you on one hell of journey. The writing and flow of this book is done well. I absolutely recommend this book.
Best friend’s step-brother romance. Parker is 30 years old and has had to move home with his mother & her new husband. Lake is best friends with Cassie, Parker’s new step-sister. There is an unspoken secret about Parker, who is clearly starting over. The question is whether Parker and Lake can can survive the secret as a couple. I found it a bit hard to like Parker, probably because he didn’t like himself very much. Lake was a determined, forgiving, and compassionate character. Sizzling hot and emotional scenes.
I am voluntarily leaving my opinion of a review copy of this book.
This book ticks all the boxes for someone who should be off limits, Best Friends stepbrother for starters then he is broody, has a mysterious past and is hot as hell so why am I so attracted to him….
This was a very quick extremely sizzling hot read about Parker and Lake a couple who know they should be off limits to each other but the attraction can’t be ignored. Parker feels he is not good enough for his stepsister’s best friend but that doesn’t stop him gravitating towards her and Lake is drawn in by the hot bad boy she should be avoiding. Once with the dirty talking, sizzling hot, Parker was never going to be enough but Lake has never had to pursue a man who keeps trying to push her away…… Instant attraction, sizzling chemistry and some witty banter make this a great read and let’s not forget this is a Christmas romance and I’m sure after reading this novella like me you will be full of the holiday spirt. Another great read from Alex Wolf wonder what’s coming next…..
Alex Wolf give us a hot and steamy holiday romance you do not want to miss! The chemistry between Lake and Parker jumps off the pages. I was wrapped up in their story from the start and didn’t put it down until the heartwarming end. I love the dark and broody alpha bad boy who finds the sweet girl who teaches him that he is worth it, that he deserves love. Sexy and hot intermixed flawlessly with heart-warming emotion.
This book was short, sizzling, and full of the Christmas spirit. Parker’s a bad boy and such an alpha male, and he’s trying to get his life together. To me he seems to play into what others think of him and that he’s too bad and not worthy. All Lake wants is Parker. She’s good, a hard worker, and all she wants to do is let go…with bad boy, Parker. It was quick, steamy, and a little naughty.
A fun, steamy holiday read. The plot flows well and the characters jump off the page in this insta-attraction romance.
Lake and Parker are that “will they/won’t they” and I couldn’t get enough. Lake’s bestie’ step brother pulls her interest from the moment they meet but he’s the bad boy that is trying to keep his distance at all costs yet look out for the girls, more so Lake over Cass. We’re given a fast paced, non stop page turner that will have you squirming in your seat with the dirty talk Parker uses. I couldn’t put this book down. Highly recommend you grab your copy now. This is my unbiased and voluntary review.
“I can’t let you leave.”
“Why?”
“Watching you walk away hurts too much.”
I really enjoyed this story! Who doesn’t love a best-friend’s step-brother romance? Parker is my favorite kind of leading man – self tortured, feeling like he’s no good for the girl, feeling like he doesn’t deserve happiness, and wanting so badly to push the girl away, but at the same time unable to help himself from wanting her.
Lake has been warned. Stay away from Parker. He’s trouble. He’s no good. He’ll only bring her heartache. While that may be true, she can’t seem to stop wanting him. She knows he feels it too – the pull. So why is he being such a jerk. Running hot and cold is getting tired really fast – one minute he can’t keep his hands off her, the next he’s pushing her away. What is his big secret? The one that makes him so undeserving of the love she is so desperately wants to give him? When the truth comes out, should she fight for him – for them – or should she just walk away? She’s about to find out.
Parker is just trying to star over – a second chance at life. But, his past is still getting in his way. He wants Lake – he’s not denying it. He can’t let it happen. She deserves so much better than him and if she really knew him, the real him, she’d realize it too. Pushing her away is the hardest thing he’ll have to do. He’s just not sure he can do it.
This was a great holiday romance story! Short, sexy and steamy all wrapped up in one, tied with a ribbon!! I’d recommend this one to everyone!
He’s a hot dirty talking bad boy and she’s the good girl who is about to turn his world upside down. A sexy read that will get you into the holiday mood and it’s SUPER HOT!
Parker is a bad boy with a secret. He’s worked hard to start over and make a new life, but his reputation haunts him. Trying to get back on his feet he moved home and he meets Lake, his step-sister’s BFF. He thinks he’s not good enough for her, but the attraction is unavoidable.
Lake is all buttoned up and usually like’s her men clean cut. Parker is the complete opposite of everything she thought she has ever wanted. However, once she lays eyes on Parker she can’t stay away.
Lake has never actively pursued anyone, but Parker is just so much more and she cannot let him go. One time with this dirty talking bad boy was never going to be enough. He definitely puts up a good fight, but in the end you can’t fight what’s meant to be. But to get forever, he’s going to have to put it all on the line.
A story of redemption and finding love. Parker never saw her coming, but she was everything he needed.
Great steamy story! Parker is the dark bad boy and Lake is the young and beautiful college grad. Both are staying with their families for the holidays while simultaneously trying to figure out their next steps. My only complaint was that the description of Parker’s new business venture came off as super shady and weird. Other than that, this book was excellent! I especially loved the end parts. I won’t say more because that would ruin it.
A fun and steamy Christmas romance. The book combines the bad boy/good girl and forbidden tropes into a very enjoyable story. Parker and Lake were incredible together. Parker is super hot and Lake is so feisty and determined. The heat they generate is well balanced with the sweetness and their deep emotional connection.
Surprise Christmas Release! Ever meet that one person that just melts you inside and out and there is no explanation for it? Parker and Lake are just that, Parker is a total badass with all the allure and sexiness and Lake is beautiful and impressionable, with a shyness that is sexy. This story is quick, detailed, sexy and wild! Alex always knows how to bring the sexiness to the page and what a better time than Christmas.
4 Star Review A Bad Boy For Christmas by Alex Wolf
This was an extremely quick read that was scorchingly hot. Lake is totally drawn to bad boy Parker even though she knows that she should stay well away from him.
However all is not as it seems as Parker has a secret. His past is dictating his future and all he really wants to do is start over.
The chemistry between Parker and Lake is scorchingly hot and even though Parker knows he is not good enough for Lake, he still cannot help gravitating towards her. Lake is determined, feisty and I loved her spunky attitude.
Once Lake decides to dive in she sets her heart and mind to pursuing Parker who eventually realises that he has no hope.
This was a good read that got me into the holiday spirit.
Parker is the perfect bad boy wish for Christmas! He’s the guy everyone is warning Lake away from.
The dynamic between these two is chemical. The way they really see each other. Lake isn’t drawn to guys like Parker, but there’s just something about him that has her almost mesmerized, and he feels the same about her. As much as they try to keep away from one another, something always pulls them to the sames pot. Lake thinks she’s this specific person, but Parker shows her she’s so much more. Again, the same is true with Parker.
They are so hot together, but there’s a tenderness and sweetness between them that no one really understands. I really loved this story, and Alex Wolf gives the heat and dirty talking alphas he’s known for. Merry Christmas to me!
This holiday book will melt the snow throughout the entire Midwest it is so hot thanks to broody, damaged and dirty talker Parker. Parker comes to us with more baggage than a starlet on a weekend trip to Paris. It keeps him from forgiving himself enough to let him have a fulfilling relationship with someone.
That someone is Lake. Fresh off getting her MBA, she sees her BFF’s new stepbrother and is as gaga as a starlet on a weekend trip to Paris. BFF says, “He’s no good for you.” Friend’s dad says, “He’s no good for you.” Parker says, “I’m no good for you.” So naturally, she wonders if he’s good for her.
It’s a story of breaking down walls and deciding to take a risk when in love. The way Parker tells Lake he loves her is as corny as a starlet on a…no that won’t work here. It’s corny, but it works with a big swoon. Loved the holiday story.
4.5 stars on this one. Lake and Parker are a combustible couple from the minute they meet but can her ambition and his past find a way to make it work? You’ll have to read to find out. This book is well written and flows really well and is HOT, HOT, HOT!!!! It’s a nice quick read for the holiday season. I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book for an honest review.
