Two of the three short-stories were totally delectable :) the second was a little corky, but fun nonetheless! I love the heroes in this series, they are badass!

MEH. Not deep enough for good fiction, not sexy enough for erotica. The author could use an expansion of her vocabulary; she repeated terms a lot.

I was slightly disappointed in this book. I think it was because there were three stories in one book which didn't leave much time to develop the story. They were just romance novels. I will give a try to one of the full length books to see if I like it any better. Otherwise, I think I will stick with her other series which I adore!

BORN TO BE BAD - 4.85 STARS
"One BAD Night" - 4.5 stars
Cute little story about BAD agents Sam Winslow and Jason Banks.
Favorite Quote:
If sin had a proper name, it would be Jason Banks. He was what Samantha Winslow's mother would call sex-on-a-stick, and as much as she hated to admit it, Sam wouldn't mind taking a bite out of him.
(Sam, page 3)
"BAD to the Bone" - 5 stars
An adorably hilarious story about Illinois school teacher Marianne and BAD agent Kyle. Loved the ending.
"'Captivated' by You" - 5 stars
A sexy, funny, sensual story about BAD agents Rhea and Ace. Best of the three stories.
"One BAD Night" - 4.5 stars

I'm reading the stories in the order of publication vs. the order in the book.
One BAD Night - Sam & Jason - This one was ok, but probably my least favorite of the bunch though.
BAD to the Bone - Marrianne & Kyle: This was a cute story - VERY much a steamy "romance" story. This was a fairly developed story for a novella.
"Captivated" by You - Rhea & Ace - I probably liked this one the best.

I read the first story and some of the third story. It was steamy but since the stories are only 100 pages I feel like the action is way too fast and not believable. In the first story the guy moves in at the end of the story and the whole thing was over a 2 day span of time. I think the books are written well from the erotic standpoint. Very descriptive and long. I am only giving it a low score based on plot not from erotic descriptions. I still think there has to be some substance to hot romance books.

The three novellas in this collection about the Bureau of American Defense include One BAD Night, BAD to the Bone, and "Captivated" by You. The first story was decent but the other two were low on the substance and heavy on the sex. They're novellas for crying out loud, I like sex in my books, but there's only so many pages you can devote to it!
I can recommend the other BAD books, but give this one a pass.

Had only read half of this book previously, finally had a chance to read it in its entirety and LOVED it!
The first time around, I hadn't read any of the BAD books before, so getting into the stories was a bit rocky. Now that I've read all of the other books in this series, I adored all three in Born to be Bad!
