Elle Kennedy | Author-Reader Match: BAD GIRL REPUTATION

goodreadstwitterfacebookInstagram

Instead of trying to find your perfect match in a dating app, we bring you the “Author-Reader Match" where we introduce you to authors you may fall in love with. It's our great pleasure to present Elle Kennedy!

 

Writes:

About second chances, forgiveness, undeniable chemistry, and happily-ever-afters. In Elle’s latest book, BAD GIRL REPUTATION, former bad girl Genevieve comes home for a family obligation, ready to leave her reputation (and ex) in the past. Easier said than done, though.

Evan’s not ready to let the passion between them go, and he’ll do anything to prove to Gen that they can be good together, even if he has to turn over a new leaf himself. Too bad their past has a way of coming back to haunt them…

 

About:

When not busy writing romances full of bromance, banter, and bad-ass heroines, Elle loves to spend her time in quaint coastal towns and on the beach, swimming with her dogs, or catching up on her favorite true-crime shows and podcasts.

 

The perfect reader for Bad Girl Reputation loves:

  • Second chances
  • Drama and angst
  • Undeniable chemistry
  • Redemption stories
  • Friends who’ll have your back
  • All the feels

 

What to expect if we're compatible:

  • Fun world-building for each series
  • Heroines who aren’t afraid to fight for what they want
  • Witty banter / bickering that’ll have you LOL’ing
  • Bromance, Bromance, Bromance
  • Unexpected plot twists that might leave you screaming.

BAD GIRL REPUTATION by Elle Kennedy

Bad Girl Reputation

Bestselling author Elle Kennedy returns to Avalon Bay in this sexy second chance story about two exes who can't stay away from each other, Bad Girl Reputation.

When former bad girl Genevieve West returns home for her mother’s funeral, she’s prepared to keep her distance from her ex-boyfriend, Evan Hartley. Their history is rife with turbulence. And passion. A heck of a lot of passion...which she’s trying desperately to forget.

But it’s impossible not to run into Evan in the small coastal town where they once ran wild. And the moment she sees her gorgeous ex again, it’s clear to Gen that Evan is still as unruly, sexy, and irresistible as ever. This time around, however, she’s resolved to walk a new path. No more partying. No more foolish mistakes. Her plan is to temporarily remain in town to help her father run his business, but the second he finds somebody else, she’s out of there.

Evan has other ideas. He knows they can be good together, but he just has to convince Genevieve of that, even if it means turning over a new leaf himself. But can a bad reputation ever truly be shed? Do second chances really work? Genevieve and Evan are about to find out.
