ONCE UPON A BAD BOY, the third book in the Sometimes In Love series, is a slam dunk, tantalizing romance. It stars Sadie Gold, a gorgeous girl who captures Bo Ibarra’s heart. They met as teenagers, but Bo cans their intimate relationship on prom night. Sadie is shocked and angered. Now, years later, Sadie is close to becoming a major movie star.

All of Sadie’s best friends from the series give her help in the romance department. Together they navigate hurt feelings, regrets, secrets, many laughs and problems galore.

She is in love with Bo and the devilishly handsome man he has become. Bo still regrets his actions but now realizes it was for the best at the time. They each have matured and wonder if they can make things work a second time. This is a wonderful journey of rediscovering a fiery relationship, which never completely burned out. The author delivers an honestly heartfelt, deeply emotional story with a quirky flair. I absolutely adore all the movie references that abound in the plot! ONCE UPON A BAD BOY is a sexy cocktail of vulnerability and strength. Just like a tequila sunrise with style!
