Cari Quinn | Why I Love Bad Boys
November 18, 2014
I’m so excited to be here at Fresh Fiction today, especially since I’m here to
talk about one of my favorite topics: bad boys! My latest release, NO PROMISES REQUIRED, book
4 in the Love Required series, features a bad boy hero (I know you’re
shocked!) Best of all, Bryan isn’t just a bad boy in his own head—he’s so much
of a bad boy that his professional football team has warned him he better shape
up or ship out. Bryan doesn’t do anything too wild. Sure, he enjoys the
occasional drink and the occasional one-night-stand, but otherwise he’s
practically a saint. Okay, not so much. But bad boys aren’t as cut-and-dried as they seem, which is one of the reasons I
adore them. That tough guy outer shell often hides a heart of gold and an
empathy that arises from being misunderstood. They also have other good traits
that may not show up at first glance—and I’m not talking about their physical
attributes, though in Bryan’s case, he scored a touchdown there too! :) One really positive trait Bryan possesses is that he’s exceedingly loyal. He
loves his sisters and his hometown friends and he has more than a small amount
of affection for his sister’s best friend, Jill. Jill, you see, is a good girl.
Except she’s really not. As soon as he scratches the surface with her, he
realizes that he’s not the only one who has more layers than people assume. And
his so-called good girl is anything but, especially when the lights go out!
Heck, she doesn’t mind if he leaves them on. ;) Now it’s your turn! Why do you love bad boys? Is it there wild side or their
willingness to defy convention? Or would you rather skip the bad boys and stick
with another type of guy altogether? Share with us and you’ll be entered to win
an ebook prize pack of NO
DRESS REQUIRED, book 1 in the Love Required series, and an ebook of
TEMPTED BY HIS BEST
FRIEND, another of my recent releases that features a bad boy hero. (Hey, I
admitted that I love them!) Thanks so much for allowing me to visit with all of you today!

Bad boys are fun because they live according to their own rules. These books are going on my to read list.
Thanks

Bad boys can be fun, but prefer funny guys

Bad Boys have a certain confidence that I find appealing and
watching one fall in love is the most fabulous thing.

Hmm Bad Boys may have a certain appeal, but I choose slow and
steady to win the race.

I would say because they exude confidence and play outside the lines, sometimes you need to do that.
(Tina McClay 9:46am November 19, 2014)
Love bad boys and their confidence...
(Colleen Conklin 11:51am November 19, 2014)
Would depend largely on how they are 'bad'. Cocky and arrogant is one thing, mean-spirited is completely different. Prefer one with a good sense of humor, especially about himself.

For me it's the excitement they bring to the table. They do things that are a bit "dangerous that I'd
never start on my own but wouldn't mind being drug into ;)...the forbidden and thrilling. Then there's
the aspect of "reforming" them and turning them away from the "dark side", lol. I had my fling with a
bad-boy once and it was so hard to say bye-bye when he kept coming back into my life...

Oh I'd have to say their wide side is what makes a bad boy "bad". They are a little bit dangerous and unpredictable. Not dangerous in a bad sense mind you! Just a little naughty.
(Bonnie Capuano 8:18pm November 19, 2014)
There look and the fact that they are wild.
(Susan Clickner 8:29am November 20, 2014)
love them because they are the ones that we have been told all our lives to avoid or something bad will happen to us.
(Angela Parrish 1:29pm November 20, 2014)
I like that they are confident & protective of others.
(Kv H 6:13pm November 20, 2014)
I love bad boys because I like seeing how the right woman can
see through the mask they put on.
(Jen Barnard 8:30pm November 20, 2014)
I love bad boys because they're always portrayed as sexy
and they are protective of their women.
(Sandy Pochapin 9:53pm November 20, 2014)
Typically it's their stubborness.
