Never Kiss a Bad Boy

Rate this book
Could you fall in love with a killer? How about two?

When hiring a pair of hitmen, it's important to remember some rules.

Pay in cash.

And Never sleep with them.

I swear I didn't expect to break that second rule.

The only reason I hired Kite and Jacob was to help me track down a killer who still haunts my nightmares.

I know not to trust them and what they're capable of, so it shouldn't be hard to remember my goal... remember why I'm putting myself in danger.

But with both of them kissing me?

I can't even remember my own name.

Title: ➳Never Kiss a Bad Boy💋 💖
Author: ➳Nora Flite

💋 💖 This is hot M/F/M sex. It's a story about revenge, survival & love, if that is possible 💋 💖


This one was my first read by this author but definitely won’t last.

2 intense alpha & one female set on revenge- what more to you need?

➦Marina

➦This girl had been through so much. She lived her whole life with only one thing to live for & that was the revenge of her parents & older sister. Marina has spent the last 16 years living a nightmare!

➦Marina was so close to killing 2 man who destroyed her life, Until 2 sexy hitman mess it all up

➦Kite & Jacob, partners who own a bar in New York(Corner Velvet) Blood brothers since they were kids….. They were broken in their own way, they completed each other.. Oh did I mention they are both retired hitman

➦Everything they've worked so hard to achieve is threatened, & their friendship is put to the ultimate test when Marina walk through door.

➦The story-line was perfect, the characters were great, & the writing was awesome & well-paced. It was absolutely a page turner, I couldn’t put it dawn for a sec. It keeps you at the edge of your seat at the whole time! The story is told in dual POV, 3rd all POV’s! It’s standalone. All in all, I loved it & really enjoyed it, hope you like it as well!

➦I do have to be completely honest, this book isn’t what you normally suspect it to be for Suspense Thriller with kick. It has some very steamy scenes & some very heartbreaking moments

➦The chemistry that Marina shares with Kite & Jacob is amazing, A few twists & turns as Jacob & Kite helped Marina, or did she help them?
I don’t know when my heart broke more- when I heard Marina story, or Kite & Jacob story

➦There is only one way to find out for yourself

➦Hope you enjoy this read & also always keep in mind this is just my opinion

This was my first book by this author and it did not disappoint. It was an enjoyable, easy book to read. The storyline was good and held my interest all the way through.

This story is about a threesome (one female and two males, no m/m). Quite often in books that have this type of relationship, the story is focused a lot on the sex. However, with this book I didn't find that. There is sex but it doesn't overshadow what the book is about. I liked that there was an actual story and not just all sex.

Never Kiss a Bad Boy should really have a plural for boy, because this is a story with “two” hit man. They have, ever since they were only 9 years of age, been blood brothers and watched each other’s back. They were broken and they knew it, so only ever trusted each other. They thought after this last job was completed, they would retire and live in style and work at their bar in New York named The Corner Velvet. Then enter Marina Fidel into their bar and into their lives, bringing her own broken and tragic problems to them to make them part of their own.

Marina was considered a threat and dangerous to both Kite and his friend Jacob. They considered her a complication, but also a serious threat, and one enemy they would have to keep very close. Even though she was considered a person that knew too much, and would eventually have to be taken care of permanently, there was an attraction between her and Kite. But “The Rule” Jacob said, “Is that we share everything.” “That includes you, Marina Fidel. If either of us wants you, if we both crave you, then this is your only option.” “It’s both of us or neither of us.” “This is what we want from you. Take us both, or you’ll get nothing.”

Kite and Jacob had more then a Blood Oath. They walked the Earth as corrupted souls, men who had been destined to suffer from the start. Nothing had ever gone right for them. Even the moment they’d made their blood bond had been a curse. If there was a way that this affliction of a woman wouldn’t turn on them one day, would they take it, and if tested would she pass the test?

I have read several books before this by Nora Flite, but this is definitely the most “scorching” hot, with violent scenes, and a mature and complex story. It is a complete novel with a very unusual HEA.

Kite and Jacob, partners who own a bar in New York and it just so happens that they are retired hitmen, finally see their lives coming together after a long, hard road. Soon they cross paths with Marina. Marina's family was murdered by the man who was Kite and Jacob's final hit. Kite believes he got away clean, but there was one witness. A beautiful, sexy woman who has spent the last 16 years living a nightmare. Marina needs help. She needs Kite and Jacob, but they are reluctant. Will she be able to convince them to help? Kite and Jacob disagree on whether they should help her. In fact, the only thing they seem to agree on is that she is SEXY HOT and they both want her. Soon Marina is in over her head. While Kite and Jacob contemplate seducing her, they need to protect themselves from their past. She's a liability and there's only one way to take care of that.
WOW, I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS BOOK ! Well written, with characters so original and complex. SEXY ASSASSINS, SO COLD AND CALCULATING YET PASSIONATE.
JACOB, with his controlled passion. KITE, with his reckless abandon. MARINA, unable to resist the two men she should fear, all the while trying to complete her mission of revenge.
This book was non-stop! Can Kite and Jacob finally have the life they've dreamt about? Is there room in it for Marina?
This book has LOTS OF HOT SEX SCENES ! A LOT ! If you like the untouchable, never settling down bad boy ( there are two prime examples in here ) and the woman who brings them to their knees, YOU DEFINITELY NEED THIS BOOK !

If all bad boys were like Jacob and Kite I'd have absolutely no problem kissing any of them!
Never Kiss a Bad Boy is such a compelling and different story- a tale of 2 best friends, blood brothers that don't let anyone or anything come between them. When Marina enters the picture everything they've worked so hard to achieve is threatened, and their friendship is put to the ultimate test.
I really enjoyed this book, it's a little different from anything I've read before...2 hitmen and the woman who has the power to destroy them.
Marina really has no clue what she's getting herself into when she sets out to hire Kite to help her kill the man responsible for the death of her family, but she doesn't let this stop her...and I really liked that side of her. Kite and Jacob are 2 dangerously delicious hitmen, who could blame Marina for falling under their spell...I definitely did!
Engaging, thrilling, and suspenseful, NKaBB will keep you on the edge of your seat, wondering what the outcome will be...Will Marina finally get what she's been working towards for the past 16 years? Will Jacob and Kite hold up their end of the deal? Will everything that Jacob and Kite built implode because of one woman?!?

This is it... the last book of 2015. I wish I'd have picked something more my style. I knew what this would entail, and I read it anyway. So this is on me. But the multiple typos? Unforgivable.

I just don't get relationships like this, and based on what I read, theirs won't last. Someone will get jealous and strain the "harmony" they seem to have. There were hints to it in the story.

I also don't understand the emotional upheaval the reader had to go through when the ending was so predictable. It would have been way more interesting if there was more conflict between the characters rather than within the characters.

And forget forgiving Marina as she did nothing wrong. The boys? They do something, in my eyes, that I have a hard time letting go, so I don't understand how Marina doesn't even make it an issue. Stupid.

The other book by this author looks promising. I'll put it on my TBR list, which is pretty long.

I expected a lot of more of this book. This was the first book I read of this author and I don't know how to feel. I know that some of the menage type books don't focus on the relationship in a romantic way but in an erotic way.

I feel kind of disappointed with the author because she doesn't build the relationship between two of the characters but with the other male, she does a good job.

Jacob and the heroine barely speak but they love each other??? How???

This book was amazing. I was so wrapped up in Kite and Jacob's bond. To have a bond like that something must have really cemented it. To hear what made them "brothers" made me love them even more. The fate of Marian made my heart pound....She was one lucky girl even if her fate was death. Questioning all the way to the end what these men would do to her had m glued to this book. I loved every twisted, hot and intense moment of it.

I was conflicted writing my review. First I wasn't expecting a menege type theme. But it was more of a dark suspense with sensitive subjects. I can't say I didn't enjoy it though. It was different than most of the books I have read recently. Because it was so unique for me. I had to give 4stars. That being said it, I love Nora books. And can't wait for the next one!!!

Not sure what I expected from this book but I enjoyed it ! A few twists and turns as Jacob & Kite decided if Marina would become theirs in the end. This was a dark romance with characters who had serious flaws and trust issues. I guess once all the little pieces came together finally they could become one. I was kept on edge with this story and that helped me ignore a few editing issues

Well, who wouldn't want a lil menage with Kite and Jacob? I love that they're both alphas but share her. It was kind of disconcerting that she fell right into it, knowing that she could be their next hit because she knows too much. But reality aside, I think in my fantasy world I probably would too ;)

I'd give this book 3.5 stars. I enjoyed it but was able to put it down and not really think about it again until I had time to read.

A little bit

So I chose three stars because in the beginning of this book I couldn't put it down. However the book quickly took a turn for the way too freaky for me. I am down for the crazy but the two guys one girl for to be too much. Also the whole plot of two human falling in love with one woman and sharing her is just to far fetched for me. With that being said am a huge fan of Nora Flite her writing style definitely was at work it is the main reason I finished the book.

This was my first M/F/M book. And damn was it GOOD!
Marina, Kite and Jacob are the perfect trio. Hot, sexy, with a lot of baggage from the past. My favorite scene is the paintball scene. Marina is a boss, just like the two men who can't seem to keep their hands off her. There's more than just sex to the story. From start to finish, it all comes together and leaves you with the right ending for this imperfect trio.

This book was hot as hell while managing to keep an interesting plotline, full of intrigue, twists and turns.

Marina has gone through so much as a child, leading her to go through life as an empty shell with only revenge as motivation to keep going.

Kite and Jacob share a dark childhood secret, that made them blood brothers for life.

When all three of them clash, sparks fly.

5 stars and a blood oath

I really enjoyed this book! The story was interesting and was well paced. The characters were also well fleshed out and believable. It was an easy read and had a really good balance of smut and plot! This is the first book I've read by this author but will definitely be looking at her others to find my next read.

3.5 ⭐️ Me gustó la forma de escritura y los personajes (Jacob fue mi favorito). Aunque la verdad esperaba un pico más (sobre todo acción y peleas). Entiendo que el libro es de romance pero el contexto daba para una trama un poco más emocionante y un final más intenso y peligroso pero quedó en lo mismo de siempre.

What’s better than a brooding anti-hero with a troubled past, how about two of them, yup that’s what we get with this story. Then add a determined, fearless heroine and you have a great story.

Broken and Strong. How is that for two words you wouldn’t think go together? But broken and strong are two words that can be used to describe Kite, Jacob and Marina. Kite and Jacob are two blood brothers who come from the most despicable childhoods that made them in to the hitmen that they are today. They have come from living on the streets as children after leaving their homes to riches from the money they’ve made by becoming assassins. Not only are they rich hitmen, they are extremely hot and sexy hitmen that have a bond that they will not allow anyone to break; not even Marina. Marina has also came from a torturous childhood as she was hidden from site and had to watch her 9 year old sister, mother and father being brutally raped and murdered. Her family was not only murdered but they were cut up into small pieces with 2 men who used x-acto knives and hatchets. To say that this scarred Marina is an understatement. In her hiding place she was able to make eye contact with her sister while she was raped and then cut to pieces. Marina would never forget the men’s faces and from that point on her life became about getting revenge for her family.

After many years and only living to seek that revenge Marina did not care if she lived or died as long as she was able to avenge her family. After all of this time she finally tracked one of them down and was about to kill the first man who was in a crowd but her revenge was taken from her when she saw another man get to him first and kill him. The only telltale that Marina picked up on was a tattoo on the killer’s hand. Marina could tell from the way that this was done that this man had killed before and he also may know who the second man may be. Since Marina dedicated her life to seeking revenge for her family’s murder, she hunted this guy down and found him in a bar that he happened to own with his partner. How many people would think it a good idea to waltz on in there and try to make a deal with the devil? Marina had found out that the killer, Kite, had a partner in all of this, Jacob. She thought if she offered them money she could have them, not only help her find the second man, but also help hone her skills so she could kill this second man herself. She was not stupid because she had let it known to them that she had a letter that would name the men as killers to help ensure that they would not take her life until she was able to take out her family’s second killer. Then she would let it up to them if they felt she needed to die because of the info she had on them.

After much debate as to whether to kill this beautiful woman and to see if she actually had this letter that could finger them as assassins, they led her to believe that they would help her out. They had decided that after they had helped her they would kill her to tie up any loose ends so she would not name them as killers. Marina realized that they would probably take her life after this but the only focus she had in life was to avenge her family and she needed to do it herself. She wanted to look into the last man’s eyes as she killed him and after that she had no reason to go on living. Kite and Jacob knew they had to keep an eye on Marina so the stipulation was that she had to move in with them. After living in close quarters no one could keep their urges to themselves. And, oh my God the urges they had!! If you cannot handle some very erotic scenes between not only one man and woman but two men and woman, this may not be for you. But for those of you who like to live through others at times, this is one extremely hot and sexy read.

Can the connection that Kite, Jacob and Marina have not only in the bedroom, but through events that they all have shared in their pasts, pull them together to find Marina’s last killer and will the guys kill her to ensure their identity is never known? Will Marina be able to live with herself after killing another person because the guys know from experience that this can change you forever? Does Marina realize at any point she does have another reason to live and try to save herself from the two men who have entwined their lives with her? You will have to read this book to find this out and like I said this is not for the faint of heart because they have great chemistry both physically and mentally between the trio. This book is loaded with sex, suspense and more sex and had me up reading nonstop because the author has pulled you into their lives and you can’t get enough of them. This is a definite read if you are looking for a fantastic book on bad boys, sex, suspense and more sex.

Never Kiss A Bad Boy does really make me believe in "the power of three"!
The Best Ménage à Trois Romance I Have Ever Read!
A Must Read!

I did received an ARC from this amazing talented author, but don't let that mislead you. I couldn't resist the temptation to 1-click this awesome book as I have done with everything she has ever written. Call me crazy if you like, but Nora Flite has a Gift, the Gift that allows me to devour her stories, relishing every single moment of it, as if it was the first time!

This is an amazing story about the most beautifully well-written, well-structure and believable polyamorous relationship where each partner loves one another equally.

Unique, with believable strongly-drawn characters in their own right, and a love interest amazingly well done. Best viable storyline with real life conflicts, some humor, angst, confusion, sadness, rage, vengeance, passion, and a realistic emotional base on which it builds.

This twisted beautiful dark romance is the very first Best Ménage à Trois Thrilling Organized Crime Romance that really rock my world! Writing a quality love story between 3 great characters, so well-structure, so amazingly well-written, with believable likable characters, and a freaking amazing plot and sub-plots is just GENIUS!

Just the relationship between this 3 utterly amazing characters make an splendid plot that shows a lot of great emotion and explores the nature of choice. Who they are, where in the hell do they came from, where are they going and what is that they want.

Jacob, Marina and Kite put all together are a masterpiece!!

Never Kiss A Bad Boy is without any doubt the most delightful and enjoyable Ménage Thrilling Romance/ Organized Crime Genre I was lucky to come across with. This is the "IT", my first and very best in this genre that has gotten under my skin and had move me emotionally in every capable way there is. This just goes to show that even a human being like me (with the worse medical prognostic), can be capable to change her mind and push her limits when the right, beautifully well-written story is found. (Authors like Nora Flite tend to make me feel more alive than ever).

Nora Flite wrote the most beautiful and powerful love story that make me believe without any doubt, that our three main characters in this relationship loved one another and were committed to one another beyond life itself.

This is a re-release of the Beyond Blood series as STANDALONE, but it feels to me as if it was my first time reading it, all over again.
Contains a HEA, NO CHEATING, NO CLIFFHANGERS, and two hitmen who have a "talent" for sharing one sassy/feisty lady…

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS GREAT BOOK TO ANYONE LOOKING FOR A UNIQUE AN AMAZING STORY!

A few spoilers in this review. This was a very different book and written from all three of their POV’s It has a good storyline, except I had a few problems with inconsistency and timing issues with this book. Within the first few chapters you have it being 6am, her drinking hot chocolate when Kite and Jacob return from searching her apartment and after a little discussion its dinner time and dark. The next morning you have her going to Jacobs apartment for toilet paper, he sitting in a towel after a shower, he getting the paper and purposely lowering his towel then after a kiss she is looking at the front of his pants???? Also waking up one morning to her being gone and taking until dark to locate her from the gps tracker on the vehicle??? Other than some editing problems it didn’t take too much away from the story. Marina witness’s a murder of the man she actually was following. He had killed her family 16 years ago. She finds out the hit man’s name 8 months later and hires/blackmails him and his partner to help her find the second man that killed her family. She has some insurance over them to keep them form killing her for what she knows. They do help her reach her ultimate goal. You learn about all their horrible pasts that have led them to be killers. Their bond/pact to “share” everything, including her. Everything is consensual as she does develop feelings for them both. If you are not ok with reading about threesomes then avoid this book. There is no cheating and a HEA however unrealistic a future together seems. Due to the editing problems I am only giving it 4 stars. This was also 2 books put together into one, you can sort of tell where the break is due to the recapping of the story.

This was a good book. My heart broke for Marina. This girl had been through so much. She lived her life with only one thing to live for and that was the revenge of her parents and sister.
Her goal was to force Frank to tell her the other guy that was working with him that night her family was killed. She wanted to be able to kill them both, but now lying before her is Frank’s dead body.

Kite and Jacob were professional hitman. They were handsome and every girls wet dream. The moment Kite spotted that sexy numbers that walked into his bar he never would of dreamed what trouble she would cause. Now here she was blackmailing them to help her. Help her and then kill her was the plan that Kite and Jacob had came up with. Should be simple right?

Things start to get hot and steamy between Kite, Jacob, and Marina. Things become more difficult and hearts are on the line. Kite and Jacob are blood brothers. They had always said nothing will come between them. Will Marina be that one that to prove that wrong? Can Kite and Jacob survive everything they must do?

This is a hot and steamy story. Your will fall in love with each and every character. You will also find your heart breaking for all three of them. Trust me when I say it is one amazing read.

I've read Nora Flite before, and what I read was nothing short of amazing. This book however, was a dud in the water for me. I ended up stopping at chapter 6 (9%of the way finished) because this book gave me such a headache. Every chapter is in either Kite, Marina, or Jacobs POV. The constant rotation just made it hard to focus and frankly took away from the story completely for me. I don't mind multiple points of view if it's done correctly, and Nora has done it before, but just not with this book. I felt myself become detached from the characters completely and by chapter six, just when things were beginning to pick up, I realized I just didn't even care where the story was going. I don't need three sides of a story rotated, I just need one. Nora has a very detailed and unique writing style, and I'll definitely be checking out more titles by her, but this is getting tossed aside. no thanks.

*ARC received in return for an honest review*
Wow! This book was hard to put down. Marina is a woman devoid of feeling except the need for vengeance until she spends time with Kite and Jacob. They are retired contract killers, blood brothers since childhood who will do anything to protect each other. It's something of a dark psychological thriller in that even though Kite and Jacob are both obsessed with her, they pretty much forge ahead with their plan to kill her once they retrieve incriminating evidence. Despite her fear that they will kill her, she is falling for them anyway. The sex in this book is intensely passionate, especially between the three of them. I have read and enjoyed several books by Nora Flite but this is by far the best written and darkest so far.

Kite and Jacob had a job to do they took their job very seriously. They made sure that their job was done and done with no witnesses and no evidence left behind. Well almost always.

Marina parents were murdered . She has been looking for the men who had killed them. She wanted to hunt them down and kill them. But someone got to at least one of them first. She saw it happen. Now she is has someone to help her find the other person but she didnt realize that their was another person involved. Now Kite and Jacob are being blackmailed and trying not to fall in love with the woman who they plan to kill after. But will Marina change their plans. Will she be able to not fall in love with both of them let alone one. What will happen between them all.

I just finished reading this book and i can only say OMFG!! It was amazing!!!
It was so intense, sexy and romantic, i couldn't stop myself from reading, i totally fell in love with Kite and Jacob and their stories made me cried! But i really love the bond they shared and the fact that they didn't let their friendship be afected by a woman like Marina Fidel, who by the way i think it is a really strong and brave character, who was able to deal with everything without breaking 'till the very end when you think she is going to die and everything is over between the three of them. She somehow managed to get under their skins and into their hearts without losing her original focus and i really like that.
