Melody Bryant has heard it all before. Sure, she's the epitome of the stereotype for a librarian. Loves order. Loves rules and deadlines. Loves books. But what she doesn't love is still being a virgin at twenty-four.
Unfortunately, the only guy she's ever been interested in turned her down flat. And then left town. Eight. Years. Ago. Ugh.
Now her birthday is fast approaching and she just can't take it any longer. She's finding a guy before her birthday in five weeks or she's adopting two more cats and fully embracing becoming "the crazy cat lady." But when her latest date ends in epic failure--everyone thinks of her as the "proper librarian," she realizes what she needs is to ruin her reputation. And she knows the perfect guy to help her: the baddest bad boy in town.
This Army vet won't know what hit him...

Fluffy, cute and fun.How To Seduce a Bad Boy ha everything you want to be the perfect weekend read!
This flirty story is about Mel, a shy librarian in a small town who dresses like a grandma (her words not mine). Mel is tired of being the town’s cute and good librarian and not dating material. With 24 years and her virgibity intact, she’s got one goal: to lose her virginity to the one man she’s love since she was a teenager. The town’s resident bad boy and her brother’s best friend. Super easy not.
I adored Mel! There’s so much you can relate to her. Her easy going and sweet ways, her feeling of never quite fitting with the rest. Her love for books! The way she grows during the book is fantastic. I'm used to seeing the whole, girl gets a make over and the boy suddendly realises he loves her, but this is not the case. The makeover is part her desire to be atractive and part her desire to have her outside reflecting her personality as well. There's a lot of things she discovers she loves and things she simply wasn't confident in trying before. She finds herself trough a change of clothes and make up and I was all over that!
Adam is probably one of the best book boyfriends out there! I loved reading how he suffered and how conflicted he was over Mel. You just don't go for your brother's best friend little sister. And to top it off, he feels like he's not good enough half the time. But he has such a sense of duty and he's so good for Mel.
How to Seduce a Bad Boy is such a cute story! I was rooting for Mel and Adam from the beggining. They fit so well together, pushing each other out of their comfort zone and Adam is always supportive and caring towards her. With his trouble past, he’s sure he’s not good enough but is determined to do right by her and that just makes you love him more. Also, dark hair, blue eyes and a motorcycle? Uhm, yes please! This yummy Mr. makes sure Mel has the whole experience and it totally melts your heart.
While the first part was a bit slow, but once they start working together things pick up. The steady pace kept me going and wanting to see how things would end.
The secondary characters are so good too! The townsfolk are really nice, they add a charm to the setting that makes everything more real. And I'm so interested to see what happens with Mel's brother and her best friend!
