Review: Cocky Bastard by Penelope Ward and Vi Keeland

Synopsis:

He was someone who belonged in my wildest fantasies instead of a rest stop in the middle of Nebraska.

A sexy, cocky, Australian named Chance was the last person I expected to run into on my cross-country drive.

When my car broke down, we made a deal. Next thing I knew, we were traveling together, spending sexually-tense nights in hotels and taking unplanned detours. 

My ordinary road trip turned into the adventure of a lifetime. It was all fun and games until things got intense.

I wanted him, but Chance wouldn’t make a move. I thought he wanted me too, but something was holding him back. 

I wasn’t supposed to fall for the cocky bastard, especially when I knew we’d be going our separate ways.

All good things must come to an end, right? 

Except our ending was one I didn’t see coming.


Author's note - Cocky Bastard is a full-length standalone novel. Due to strong language and sexual content, this book is not intended for readers under the age of 18.


Laura's Review: 

I LOVED this book! It engages immediately with the quick, witty flirtation and keeps going with what turns into a really sweet romance. I found myself laughing out loud and wishing their road trip didn't have to come to an end. The second half of the book seemed to drag along just a bit in some spots, but I think that was more in comparison to the the first half, which moved along so quickly. Cocky Bastard is one of my favorites of the year and I cannot wait to see what Penelope Ward and Vi Keeland come up with next! 4.5/5 stars! Note: I received a copy of this book in exchange of this honest review.
