Excerpt:

The man continued to stare intently for a moment before speaking. “What are you doing?”

Kendall returned his scrutiny, noticing the weariness creeping into the handsome guy’s expression. Shrugging, Kendall said, “Hell if I know.” His remark earned him a half smile. “What’s your name?”

“Ridge.”

Kendall quirked a brow. “What a unique name. I think that’s a character in the soap opera my elderly babysitter used to watch.” The comment triggered memories of the simpler times he longed for. Rather than wallow in sadness, Kendall turned all his attention to the handsome stranger mowing through another wing. “Is Ridge a nickname or short for something else?”

Ridge dropped the cleaned bone onto his plate and took a napkin from the pile. He wiped his hands thoroughly but didn’t remove the smear of sauce from his face. “Nickname. My name is Kurt Dandridge, but my friends and family call me Ridge. It’s both a family joke and a shortened version of my last name.”

Kendall planted his elbow on the table and dropped his chin onto his upturned palm. “I’m curious about the family joke part.”

Ridge tilted his head to the side, then looked around the club. “Shouldn’t you be checking on patrons in your section?”

“I’ve already clocked out, so I’m all yours.” A flash of heat washed over him at the montage of suggestions his libido wanted to make. All of them were dirty and delicious but entirely off the table. Damn it. He was about to clear the air in case Ridge thought Kendall had offered himself up as dessert, but Ridge smiled wickedly.

“Good to know,” he said, dropping his gaze to the name tag Kendall still wore. “Sugar, huh?” Ridge picked up another wing and sank his teeth into it. Kendall couldn’t recall a time he’d been so turned on. He wanted the big bruiser to manhandle him like a chicken wing.

Bad at Love by Aimee Nicole Walker

                  “An Exciting, Humorous, Heartbreaking, Beautifully Heartwarming Story”

Bad at Love, by Aimee Nicole Walker, is by far one of the best books of 2021.  Set as a romantic suspense story, with it’s exquisite cover, it leans more towards a soul-stirring romance.  I crazy loved it, as it’s gripping, emotional, and nail-biting moments kept me on the edge and I knew early on that I would already need more of this addicting story.

It’s suspenseful and heartbreaking plot is filled with persistent demons and down and dirty criminals, cut-off at the path by big and mighty US Marshals who pave the way for honor and justice.  I cheered, I squealed, I laughed my head off, and I actually ugly cried as it was such a over-encompassing read.

Ridge and Kendall were such incredible, cling-worthy, amazing, valiant main characters, each with their own gripping and gut-wrenching past and purpose, that the need for strength and hope could not be felt more as it had been either through the pages of my kindle or through their deep-seated connection.

Gah, I could not get enough of this interconnected story, as the twists and turns, heartbreak, dedication, sizzling heat, and stunning symbolism were spot on.  I so loved it to bits.

Even though it is somewhat of a spin-off from the Sinister in Savannah series, it’s not really necessary to read that series beforehand.  However, it is in this reader’s opinion that, it so really does, because the secondary characters of this particular story were so yummy addicting that those with cameos are bound to have stories that are just as good.

Bad at Love, is an exciting, humorous, soul-stirring, beautiful, incredibly heartwarming story with amazing characters that despite being a bit confusing, at times, collectively was such a fantabulous read.  I really, really liked it….:)
