REVIEW: Bad Influence



Bad Influence
Bad Bachelors #3
Author: Stefanie London


He's the bad bachelor who inspired it all...
Annie Maxwell had her whole life figured out...until her fiance left her when his career took off. If that wasn't bad enough, every society blog posted pictures of him escorting a woman wearing her engagement ring. To help the women of New York avoid guys like her ex, Annie created the Bad Bachelors app. But try as she might, Annie just can't forget him...

For bank executive Joe Preston, his greatest mistake was leaving the love of his life when she needed him most. Now, all he wants is to make things right--and she won't have him. But when Annie's safety is threatened by a hacker determined to bring down her app, Joe is the only one she can turn to. He'll have to lay himself on the line to prove to Annie that he's a changed man. But will their hard-won bond survive the revelation that Annie is the one pulling the strings behind Bad Bachelors?

MY REVIEW

Bad Influence by Stefanie London is simply amazing. No filler, fluff or over dramatization. This is second-chance romance the way it was meant to be written.

Annie and Joseph had a devastating break-up three years ago. Both were heartbroken and believe the other is at fault.

Now, Joe has returned home from abroad and quite literally runs into Annie.

Feelings of hurt, betrayal and anger are too apparent but love simmers just beneath.

When Annie has no other choice but to seek help and advice from Joe, old memories resurface.

Can these two take the tiny spark of love they still have for each other and make it burn bright again?

This is the third book in the series and although it can be read as a standalone, there are characters that are interwoven that have their own story in books one and two and I think you’ll want to start there because I now want to read those books!

The story is told in dual POV and the pace is good but in some areas it does lag. Especially when it comes to Annie and her decisions.

I truly loved this couple together. They were made for each other but let life and family get in the way.

This was a heartfelt, second-chance romance with a great story line and even better characters.

I received an ARC via NetGalley of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
