Love this!!! Everyone needs a B.A.
Another hit from Jessika. I loved Lizzy and B.A. This just reaffirmed that love comes to those when you least expect it.
After a bad break up Lizzy just wanted to go to a dinner show and let her hair down for the weekend. When her bff and her boyfriend try to introduce her to his brother she knows it’s time to get away. But, with just a glimpse B.A. has a plan to get the girl.
B.A. loves it when a plan comes together with just a few calls he had everything set to meet up with Lizzy and try to win her over. Their chemistry was off the charts and they are the perfect match. Love love loved this one. Can’t wait to see what Jessika comes up with next.

Lizzy Mayer is on her way to the city with her roommate Tara after a breakup with her boyfriend. When they arrive at Tara’s boyfriends place, John has his younger brother staying with him. John thinks Lizzy would be perfect for him, but he is out jogging when the girls arrive. John sends a text to get back ASAP before Lizzy takes off. He gets there just before she leaves but doesn’t get to meet her.
Brady Andrews or B. A. as he is known as, decides he likes her and chases her all the way to the city and sets a course to meet her and there the fun begins. There is lots of heat and bedroom action for those who want to read it, but the story is great and if you like reading about sexy S.E.A.L’s who are hero’s, you will love this book.

What a great read Falling For His Badass was. It has everything from great characters, funny, steamy and really just a good love story.
When Lizzy's best friend wants her to meet her boyfriends brother, but she was not interested. But guess what, when Brody decides he wants something, he goes after it. Let the games begin.
Brody and Lizzy are a great couple together. I enjoy a good love at first sight story and this right here, is a good one. With funny moments, easy going with out a lot of drama and angst. Just really a feel good read that will leave you with a smile.

quick sexy read
This was more like a novella than a book. We meet badass Brody and good girl Lizzy. This was insta love, one hot night and a happy ever after. Too short for me, which is kinda funny because I always complain when a book is too long. It was enjoyable though.

Falling For His Badass by Jessika Klide is a contemporary romance but is hot and sexy. This tantalizing little treat is just what is needed to escape the mysteries of life and plunge you into an alternate world you can only imagine from stories. The characters are complex but so much fun and Jessikas writing style is effortless as her words flow easily and just pop off the page.
Lizzie is over men and just wants a night out to enjoy herself. When she literally bumps into a solid wall of muscle little does she know that her life is about to change.
One look and that was all he needed to make her his but is the road to love that easy?
If you love romances, you will love this one. Trust me it is well worth the ride.

Ugh
The first few chapters had a repetitive phrase that drove me nuts and it was a dnf for me.
"She cut her eyes at me"
Over and over. Constantly cutting eyes. Ugh. Nope.
Time for an editor.

Sweet Romance
This was a 0-60 kinda romance… girls best friend falls in love and wants best friend to have what she has.. BA is officially hotter than Maverick from Top Gun. Lizzy is that sweet girl that needs to find someone to bring out her confidence.

All it takes is one glimpse of Lizzy Mayer and Brody Andrews, AKA B.A., is hooked. Lizzy, however, is done with men or at least she thought she was. When she runs into a solid wall of a man with a million dollar smile her resolve begins to crumble. A decadent weekend together clinches the deal for him but she's still a bit leery. Seeing him again will ease her anxiety and it may happen far sooner than she thinks.

What a fabulous read! I absolutely loved Brody (BA) and Lizzy and was pulled into their story from the first page and couldn’t put it down. It’s a flirty and fun story with plenty of heat and humor that will keep you entertained and turning the pages. Loved it and definitely recommend.

I loved this book! Dizzy didn't want to be a third wheel, she also didn't want to be set up. Brody sees her, but she didn't see him. He knew she was the perfect one for him. The sparks fly when they meet face to face. She thinks this is just a one night fling. Ahhh, just grab the book!

Falling For His Badass by Jessika Klide
4 Stars
This book started out awesome and flowed perfectly and just a few pages in I was like yep this will be a one sitting kind of book. I loved the characters and the storyline seemed somewhat unique. I became invested early with Lizzy and even Tara. I wasn't sure what I was in store for just from the title of this book but even B.A. impressed me once I knew more about him. I truly loved this story all the way up to when they actually meet. For me it went a bit downhill from there..May just be the state of mind Im in right now but there didnt seem to be enough substance to the two of them as it was sex scene after sex scene from there and I could handle that but for me personally just a bit too graphic and the words used made me cringe in some places. This caused me to do a lot of skimming and that is a true pet peeve of mine.
It's pretty obvious by the way this one ended that there will be more to come for all of these characters, I will probably read the next one because the storyline itself was something that kept me hooked and I'm hoping that there will not be quite as much graphic, leave nothing to the imagination kind of moments.
In saying all of that above...I do sincerely like this authors style of writing..It was easy to read and quick to grab.

5 out of 5 stars
Falling For his Badass written by Ms. Klide is the first in this series. This is a short story with a major cliffhanger….
The characters are well written, and you can see the sparks coming off the pages. The plot was great even though a little short I just loved it…
I read this book in one sitting I just couldn’t put it down.
Lizzy is tired of making the wrong choices when it comes to men, she trusts her best friend Tara to take her away for the weekend, She knows that if she wants an all-consuming love, she's going to have to take a bigger risk to attract a different type of man.
Her panic button will be pushed, and before the first night is over, she will be Falling for His Badass.
In comes Brody Andrews (or otherwise known as BA or "badass") is a military man to the core. He gets a quick peek of Lizzy at his brother’s house and must have her. In comes a Brody plan where they meet by chance. I’m not saying any more because the book is to short but.
Do BA and Lizzy hit it off? Can Lizzy overcome her panic attacks? Will BA show her she is worth the effort? Will Lizzy take the chance on BA? You will need to read this great book…

I always know I am in for a treat when I pick up a Jessika Klide novel. I truly fell in love with the Siri’s Heart series and have been a diehard fan ever since. I was excited to see something new and fresh as much as I love Siri, from Ms. Klide. Falling For His Badass was exactly what I needed too! A fast ride with lots of hot and steamy moments to keep you enthralled and glued to the screen of my kindle for several hours. I am pretty sure it was a dark four a.m. when I finished up this book, but I had to know how things would come to be for Lizzy and BA.
BA is a nice nickname for Brody Andrews as it covers his ‘bada**’ personality as well. His plan to seduce and make Lizzy his, is one that you won’t want to miss out on. Lizzy has just ended a relationship and a new love is the farthest thing from her mind. When her bestie decides that she wants to hook her up with her boyfriends brother the first thing Lizzy thinks is run. These two have all the right amounts of chemistry, drama, and so much more that you can’t help but fall in love with them and root for them by the end of the novel. I can’t wait to see what will come next from Jessika Klide!

Falling For His Badass is a very fast paced contemporary romance novel from Jessika Klide. It was the first time I had read anything by this author but it looked like just the kind of book that I enjoy, so I gave it a chance. I’m so glad that I took a chance with this novel as I thoroughly enjoyed it.
I mentioned before that it was fast paced, it was so fast that I just kept going and devoured the whole book in a couple of hours.
I loved the characters of Brody (BA) and Lizzy. Brody is home on leave from the military and is captivated by Lizzy. Lizzy is visiting with her best friend Tara whose boyfriend John is Brody’s brother. On a couple of occasions Brody steps in and is Lizzy’s knight in shining armour and it’s instant love between the 2, although Lizzy is not aware of the connection between the two of them as he introduces himself as BA, a nickname he is regularly called. I really loved the interactions between Lizzy and Brody and how instantly they both fell for each other. Pretty much love at first sight.
I highly recommend this book.

Falling for His Badass by Jessika Klide is a short but wonderful stand-alone novel. Although I finished the book in a few hours, it was packed full of action and excitement. Lizzy has a problem picking guys who are not good for her, therefore she ends up getting her heart broke quite a bit. She agrees to go out on a weekend getaway with her best friend and roommate Tara. They are going to stay at Tara's boyfriend’s house and he has a little brother they are secretly trying to hook Lizzy up with. However, Lizzy only agrees to go on this trip if she can go out and be by herself for the weekend, she isn’t really interested in meeting the little brother. Lizzy finds herself out and about and becomes dangerously attracted to a man who is all consuming, charming, and smoking hot. She ends up spending the weekend with him and can’t wait to get back to tell Tara that she finally met someone who is worth her time. This book drew me in and held me captive from start to finish. It is short, sweet, and steamy. I would definitely recommend this to other readers.
