Hi there! Let's celebrate Elle Kennedy's release for BAD APPLE, previously published as Midnight Encounters, a quick and fun read to fill your summer of heat and passion. Take a look!
ABOUT THE BOOK:
A flirty standalone novel from New York Times and international bestselling author Elle Kennedy!
One night with him will change her life...
Between her waitressing job, volunteer work, and college classes, there are never enough hours in Maggie Reilly’s day. Especially not for a relationship. Luckily, she’s got the perfect arrangement: a lover she meets three or four times a year. But when she shows up at the hotel expecting to hop into bed with one man, she accidentally ends up with another—Ben Barrett, Hollywood’s most notorious bad boy.
Ben, determined to lay low after another scandal, just wants some much-needed sleep. What he gets is a scorching make-out session with a gorgeous, naked redhead. He won’t accept her apology, but what he will accept is a place to hide out…and if there’s some hot, no-strings sex involved, why the heck not?
But Ben soon discovers that one week with his sassy, bed-hopping waitress is definitely not enough. He wants more. A lot more.
Now he needs to convince relationship-averse Maggie that a bad boy might be oh so good for her—and the best thing that’s ever happened to both of them.
Previously published in 2008, Bad Apple (formerly Midnight Encounters) features almost entirely new content, including a point-of-view switch. Enjoy this new version of an old favorite!

MY REVIEW:
An unexpected encounter between people from two different worlds. Maybe their paths weren't destined to cross. Or maybe they were, who knows. What I do know it's when they are in the same room there's enough heat to light a fire (like a wildfire kind of hot).
Maggie is so focused in her work and classes, that she has no time for herself (except for a couple of times a year she get together with a stranger named Tony. But this time she, accidentally I must add, finds Ben instead.
Ben is a famous actor running away, hiding while trying to figure out how to put his life back together. He's in a hotel en New York, but not the kind of place he uses to visit. For the first time in a long time he's invisible. Anonymous. And then, she enters to his room. To his bed. And everything suddenly changes.
This was a fun and quick read, super romantic and sexy and with two wonderful lead characters. Ben and Maggie were just awesome! I loved to read their banter and their bickering, how they provoque the worst (but also the best) in each other.
The story was filled with a lot of hot moments between Maggie (AKA Red) and Ben, but more than that, there were a lot of moments for you to know them better, to understand their motivations, to share their secrets, to scream at them for their stubbornness, but also to cheer for a 'happily ever after'. Hope you like it as much as I did.
