Description
Her plan was foolproof…
Good girl nurse Carrie Young only has to catch one glimpse of bad boy Zach Harrison with his wild hair, full beard, and hooded eyes to know he’s exactly what she needs to get over all those wasted years with a repressed and controlling ex. Full seduction ahead!
Only the next morning, her bad boy doesn’t disappear after having his wicked way with her and he’s making her breakfast! What the fudge! Did she do the bad boy thing all wrong?
Zach’s no dummy. He knows a good thing when it falls into his lap. And if that means pretending to be a bad boy, he’s game. No harm in a little role play, he figures. Besides, his work as an anthropologist will soon take him overseas. He’s destined to be a lone wolf forever—near the action, not embroiled in it—great for his career and for ruining relationships. In the meantime, there’s one naughty girl in need of a bad boy and he aims to please.

Carrie and the "Bad Boy"
5By Nanakay2This is a great addition to the Happy Endings book club series! I was gifted an advance copy of the book and offer here my honest opinion. Carrie has the reputation of being a good girl and has just broken up with her boyfriend who was not what he pretended to be. She is tired of the “good guys” and wants to hook-up with a bad boy to shed her good girl image. So, she creates a wish list of things she will do with a bad boy if she can find one! Zach is an anthropologist who is on a sabbatical from research in Indonesia and is supposed to be writing a book. As a teenager, he became part of the Campbell clan as a foster child so he is very comfortable as part of the gang. He and Carrie encounter each other in the bar where the gang hangs out and in a case of slightly mistaken identity, Carrie assumes he is a “bad boy” and that is where the fun begins! In a moment of weakness, she shares her “wish list” with him and they set out to accomplish everything on the list. Zach does not let on who he really is as he enjoys spending time with her and wants to keep her safe from real bad boys who could take advantage of her. They set a time limit on finishing the list as they both have commitments that will take them away for the next two years. But as the time gets closer to ending their fling, it is evident that it will be harder than they thought to say goodbye. This is a lighthearted romantic story which I really enjoyed. Characters from the previous books make appearances and the stage is set for the next book in the series. I recommend this book and look forward to seeing what Kylie has in store for Josh and Hailey… who claim to hate each other but do they really???Carrie & Zach
4By kastan manCarrie is done being placed second to her ex-fiance and has a list she wants done with a 'bad boy.' Zach volunteers as her bad boy and withholds exactly what he does. Carrie purposefully avoids asking him and turns the conversation anytime it comes up. Of course, she gets mad at him for no full disclosure. Their relationship is intense and both fail to realize how deep of a connection they make. I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book.Sweetly sexy romance!
5By Cali JewelHugely irresistible, sweetly sexy romantic journey that will have you laughing one moment and sweetly sad the next and reaching for a cool drink in the next moment. I adore the Happy endings book club and just want to visit every day just to brighten it! Zach Harrison is sweet, sexy and gruffly romantic alpha male bad boy professor. Carrie Young is a passionate, sweet and ready for a change hard working nurse. After wasting six years with an controlling ex that cheated on her she is now looking for a wild bad boy to help her experience all she has missed out on over the years. Loved her pickup line at Zach's welcome home party it was as priceless as his reaction. Their chemistry is off the charts. Loved every heart pounding moment.Witty, hot and steamy
5By Nettie1114Kylie Gilmore has written a witty, hot and steamy book in Bad Boy Done Wronged and it's the 5th book in the Happy Endings Book Club Series. Carrie wants to pickup a bad boy to follow through on her sex list with no emotional ties. Zack is a PhD. who just came back home to write a book, who really isn't a bad boy but will play one for Carrie. They agree to end the relationship when everything on Carrie's list is completed with no emotional ties. Their affair is fun,hot and steamy. I really enjoyed reading about Carrie's and Zack love affair. I highly recommend reading Bad Boy Done Wrong by Kylie Gilmore. I received this book for free for a honest review.Heat and Heart all rolled into one
5By Lnn20122This was different from all the other books I've read from Kylie. She really brought the heat with this one. It's still filled with the humor I have come to expect and love in her books but she really did turn the heat up super high with this one. The chemistry between Carrie and Zach was off the charts. Carrie was known as the "Good" girl. The Pediatric nurse who just came out of a long-term relationship that left her feeling repressed and rebellious. She wants to make up for six years of sexual repression by making a "wish" list...well let's be honest a sexual wish list. And now she just has to find a bad boy to help her perform each task on this list. One night after her Happy Ending book club meeting she meets Zach. He's tall, dark, handsome, bearded, with broad shoulders in other words, the bad boy she's been looking for. All it took was some liquid courage, a willing Zach and BOOM she had her bad boy. Or did she? Do bad boys cook breakfast for their one night stands the morning after and does he offer to help you carry out all the things on your "wish" list in the next two weeks? Zach is a well respected Professor of Anthropology who is back from living in remote locations in Indonesia. Little did he know that his grown out hair and beard would lead him to be with a beautiful quirky woman. He is more than willing to play the bad boy to help her safely check off each item on her wish list. The last thing he wants is for her to go up to random guys to help her with this list. But at the end of their two week arrangement when feelings get involved who will be hurt the good girl or the bad boy? Although I loved the heat and the quirky situations these characters found themselves in, I really enjoyed seeing how they found themselves and who they truly were. In turn discovering their true feelings for one another. I loved how their story unfolded and they found their HEA. This book will have you laughing out loud one minute and reaching for a cold glass of water the next. I'd read Carrie and Zach's story again and again.Love Happy Endings
5By Kimschubert 22Heat and humor! Everything I look for in a romance, can't wait for more!Sweet and Sexy
5By SRREEV4835This is book five in the Happy Endings Book Club from this talented author and the series just keeps getting better and better.This time around we get nurse Carrie and honorary Campbell, Zach's story. Carrie is a good girl who wants some wild in her life and she has the list to prove it! Zach is back home from "no man's land" and Carrie thinks she has totally found her bad boy! Will therer be any chemistry after Carrie's goals are met.. twice?Or will they flame out as passionately as they started? If you are looking for a romance with laughter, quick wiit, and characters you csnt help but love, you are in the right place! * I voluntarily reviewed an advanced copy of this bookGreat romantic comedy!
5By GreyGirl50I have to admit to loving the spunk of our heroine Carrie Young because she's a modern woman who knows exactly what she wants and she's not afraid to put herself out there to bag a bad boy like Zach, especially after a very long and boring vanilla relationship. She's made a sex wish list; she's ready to experiment in the bedroom and she's totally unapologetic about her mission to find men who are willing to educate her. Who wouldn't want to be free spirited, just like her? With the blessings of her friends in the Happy Endings Book Club, Carrie sets out to find her very own sexual education. She's hits the jackpot when she meets Zach, who is finally back home in Connecticut to catch up with his adopted family, the Campbells, and though he's not a bad boy by any stretch of the imagination he intends to become one for Carrie while he's in town. Their chemistry is off the charts and they both agree up front that there will be scintillating sex without no strings in this temporary relationship. Carrie is happy leading the single life and Zach is leaving the country for a two year fellowship in Singapore. There's no way that this arrangement could get out of hand. Right? Wrong! You will love all the characters in this lighthearted, fun-to-read series that always makes me laugh out loud while it also satisfies the romantic in me. I love everything Kylie Gilmore writes because no one has more fun writing the challenges and the hilarious differences between the sexes like this author does. I read a complimentary copy of this book and all opinions expressed in my voluntary review are completely my own.Hot and Adorable
5By RomanceKelSooooo cute. Carrie thinks she’s hooked up with a her sexed-up, wam-bam-thank-you-ma’am, alpha male fantasy, but under all that sexy hair and beard lies something else entirely. And he’s no dummy. He knows a good thing when it’s jumped into his arms. Of course there’s just no way to make a relationship based on a sexual position “To Do” list work after they’ve actually completed the list. Twice. Sexy, funny, and heartfelt, another good addition to this adorable series about a romance reading book club. Highly recommended.Bad boy, indeed!
5By RomanceNovelGiveawaysBad boy, indeed! Kylie comes up with the best scenarios, especially for each book in this standalone series (but I think you'll enjoy the series better if you read them all!). She gives her characters backstories and throws them into situations that are absolutely delightful to read. Poor Zach, caught in the right/wrong place at the right/wrong time, depending on how you look at it. He wanted to be what Carrie needed, but wasn't sure his lone-wolf nature would allow it. Carrie didn't give up, that's for sure! She had a list...not a bucket list or a honey-do list, a more...specialized list. That whole situation made for some funny moments, for sure! I got to read more about Josh and Hailey (CAN'T WAIT FOR THEIR BOOK!!!), and I'm VERY excited about Ally and Ethan's story! Given Ethan's "reputation," I just know that book is going to be fantastic!!! (I received a copy of this book in consideration of an honest review)
