Taming Hollywood’s Baddest Boy

In the last view months I’ve read several Max Monroe novels. And I laughed, loved and adored all of them. So obviously I couldn’t not try to get my hands on a copy and was super excited to receive an ARC.

Do people say they hate someone’s guts so that they can still fall stupidly, head-over-heels in love with the other parts? Asking for a friend. Okay, fine. I’m not asking for a friend. I’m asking for me—and I’m begging you to tell me that the practice of falling in love with your should-be-enemy is common. Please tell me that I’m not the only person to track down a guy—who used to be Hollywood’s baddest bad boy before he left LA for good—at his off-the-grid cabin in Alaska, show up unannounced, and find him gloriously naked. This probably happens all the time…right? Tell me I’m not alone in my stupidity—that I’m not the only woman who would fall for gorgeous blue eyes and a sexy devilish smirk, even if they belong to a broody, mysterious jerk. Please. Please. Please. Tell me I’m not alone in this. For the love of everything, I need all the supportive girl power I can get if I’m going to convince Luca Weaver to come back to Hollywood—otherwise known as the place he hates so much that he ghosted Oscar-level success and escaped to no-man’s-land for the last eight years just to avoid it. Yeah, don’t worry—that smoke you’re smelling isn’t your house catching fire as you read this…it’s just my career and what was previously known as my heart going up in flames. Gah. Is it just me, or am I totally, completely, and utterly screwed?

In ‘Taming Hollywood’s Baddest Boy’ we meet Billie, a wannabe movie producer, living in Hollywood. It has been her dream for a long time, to become a producer. So she shadow’s one of Hollywood’s bests producers with the hope of one day getting the chance to become the best herself. In a battle to be her boss’s best employer she announces she knows notorious and famous Hollywood star Luca Weaver, and can get him to act in her new movie. The only problem is, the guy hasn’t been seen in public in years and Billie definitely doesn’t know him.

This book was from the start another funny and great read. I loved it. Billie is this fun, hard working woman who is known to sometimes say stuff before she really things them through. And claiming to know a famous ‘missing’ author is definitely something she hasn’t thought long and hard about. But I loved how strong willed and determined Billie was. Even if everything sounded impossible, she would try everything before giving up.

A big part of this book takes place in Alaska and it was so much fun letting my mind wonder about that beautiful part of nature. Luca has been living in a cabin deep in the woods for almost 8 years. And the last thing he expects is finding a blond beautiful woman, who seems to not enjoy nature that much, on his property. The conversations between Billie and Luca where from the start so fun to read. I loved how these two interacted with each other and the setting of Alaska was just very enjoyable.

The chemistry between Billie and Luca was my favorite part of this book. It was flying of the pages, and I just couldn’t get enough of them. Although Luca seemed like this horrible guy, there was so much more to him and his story and I just adored him.

And yes, this book was definitely making me laugh out loud again several times. It was just so much fun to read this book, I simple couldn’t stop. It was like I was witnessing Billie and Luca’s story in real life and I just had to know what was going to happen next. Max Monroe definitely always delivers in the Romance and Humor department.

‘Taming Hollywood’s Baddest Boy’ is another great read. Perfect for making you swoon and laugh.
