There are no words to express how much I loved this book. From beginning to end, this book was so original and refreshing. The story had everything - strong female, sizzling hot sex scenes, mystery, good humor and one dirty talking male.

Logan is a mechanic from a small town and Banner is a New York City party girl. Their texting games turn soon into games of the heart. Logan is determined to meet her in person. And when he does, their chemistry is undeniable. Banner isn't sure of his ways at first but she doesn't deny the pleasure of his ways. She lets him take the lead, have his way, giving him control over her body knowing that he will give her a mind blowing orgasm she will never forget.

I really liked the plot and the way they met. I loved Logan’s possessiveness and dirty mouthed sex crazed demands. Banner’s willingness, dynamism and confidence make her such a lovable heroine. She is wonderfully impulsive, gorgeously wild, beautiful and sexy. She never expected that texting over a couple of weeks could lead to the bed with the hottest guy she’s ever met.

I loved the characters, the supporting characters, the suspense, the humor, the steam. Funny and fast-paced, Real Good Man is packed with real emotions, doubts, fears, anxieties and most of all - love. I cannot wait until the next book!

I'm HOOKED! I'm a GONER! There is NO GOING BACK! Meghan March gives us another INTOXICATING and SEXY romance with REAL GOOD MAN, book one in her brand spankin' new duet! These characters are so incredibly easy to LOVE! Banner is a freakin' firecracker with tons of sass and Logan is gorgeous, rugged, and boy, does he have a DIRTY MOUTH on him! I ADORED every single second of this! And that ENDING though!

"...you're so fucking far out of my league, I should be back in my truck heading for the highway."

My mouth drops open. "I'm out of your league? Have you not seen yourself? Do they not have mirrors in Kentucky?"


Fans of Meghan March will go CRAZY over Logan Brantley! I think he's her BEST character yet! He's so damn sexy, rugged, and an all around good guy. You will fall in LOVE with him instantly. And Banner Regent, I mean come on! To go along with that KICK ASS name, she has an AMAZING and INFECTIOUS personality. Together these two were just AMAZING and EVERYTHING you would want in a literary couple.

"So, where do we go from here?"

I slow for a stop sign and meet her stare. "We're going to get to know each other. I'm going to take you out on dates and show you what we've both been missing. You're gonna fall in love with me, Banner. That's where we're going from here."


Total SWOON ALERT ladies!!! Meghan March brings EVERYTHING to the table in book one of her REAL DUET! Uniqueness, witty banter, hilarity, and so much passion, the smile will NEVER leave your faces. I don't know how she does it, but Ms. March is quickly becoming an absolutely FAVORITE of mine and I can't WAIT to see what AWESOMENESS book two will bring us. She has set the bar pretty damn high for this series, hell the whole freaking year! I'm grateful that the conclusion to Logan and Banner's romance is not too far away! I'm so ready for REAL GOOD LOVE!

5 SUPER HERO CROWNS

Meghan March just seems unable to write a bad story. Her heroines are among my top favorites, her heroes are full-on alpha sexy, and her stories are so hot they will melt your eReader, but Meghan March may have broken the mold with Real Good Man.

Banner, as a heroine, is absolutely amazing. Her mouth, her ownership of her sexuality, and her gumption to attack back are some of the best attributes about her. Her humor had me laughing out loud so many times throughout this., too. I also adore her desire to make it on her own and to be able to stand on her own two feet. She also has troubles, though, that plague her, such as her sexuality, which seems to be a double edged sword for her. While she loves physical intimacy and all things related to it, the manner in which she is treated by others and the comments made are demoralizing, and I think cast a light women mistreating women. Even though, this bothers her, it doesn’t slow her down or make her change her ways. It only emboldens her to live life her way, which is fierce and independent.

Logan is quite possibly the dirtiest hero I can remember Meghan March ever creating. The mouth on this man had me blushing several times throughout this book, but he is more than a good time in bed and a dirty mouth. He is truly a real good man, looking for a real good women who will not only match him in the bedroom but also in his life. His possessiveness of Banner is the appropriate amount, allowing her to be independent while also claiming her when necessary, and his heart and desire for more emotionally from Banner will have readers falling in love with Meghan March’s newest hero.

The secondary plot of this story is not what I was expecting. This part of the story ups the suspense and the intrigue, and left me craving the second book in this duet. I am intrigued by how this story line is going to play out and how it is going affect Banner and Logan’s relationship. In regards to the romantic plot line, Meghan March delivers the chemistry, physically and emotionally. There connection is believable because they establish it first through text messages and banter, and when they meet for the first time, it combusts into flames. The progression of their relationship is fraught with some obstacles, outside conflicts as well as internal, but the author uses this to develop their characterization in the novel as well as develop their relationship to make it authentic. The final OMG moment for the reader will leave readers counting down the days to Real Good Love.

Meghan March’s Real Good Man is everything I love in her books. It is steamy and romantic, well-written and entertaining, and filled with sassy heroines and dominant heroes. She is an author who never lets me down, and her stories are always automatic one-clicks for me. Real Good Man is just the epitome of everything that is perfect in a steamy romance, and it should definitely be one of the first novels you purchase in 2017!

I think I am officially done with Ms. March. I feel like she is just churning out various forms of the same old thing and I’m just not interested in that specific brand of thing anymore.

I’m sick of the over-priced trilogies and duets.
Authors, please. Please write ONE really good book instead of three mediocre ones. PLEASE.

Banner is living in New York, and on the outside her life looks like just one massive carefree party, but is a party life always what it is cracked up to be? Or would it start to wear you down and become superficial?

Logan life is slightly different- working hard to re-build his reputation in his small town, isn’t an easy thing but will be worth while. When an accidental text exchange connects these two, things for both of them will begin to drastically change. But will fantasy live up to reality?

“You have to meet him. I mean, you can’t miss this chance.” “I can’t! I’m going to screw everything up, and then—” I cut myself off before I can admit that it’s going to suck so much major donkey d*** if I lose him in my life. Even in this short period of time, I’ve gotten attached to whatever we have.”

Megan March really does bring romance to life and manages to capture us with characters full of complexities and depth and who are relatable and loveable, alongside a modern romance plot that made me swoon, sigh, and held my heart it in its grips- I really loved reading Banner and Logan’s story!

“Something about Banner Regent f***** me up in a big way. I’ve tried everything I can think of to stop thinking about her . . .”

Banner was a beautiful inside and out and also very complex. Living a seemingly ‘perfect’ life but deep down knowing it was more superficial and didn’t delve any deeper than surface level. I loved her honesty, strength, determination and the fact she wasn’t going to roll over for anyone and could give it back to Logan just as good as he could give it. Logan was a hot male lead; charming and sexy, as well as honest and kind- it was so easy to fall for him.

“I never have to wonder what the hell she’s thinking, or if she’s got a hidden agenda, because she’s got no filter and has no problem telling me exactly how things are.”

A brilliant, captivating romance for the modern ages- it kept me hooked right up until the end, leaving me desperate for the second book in this duet series. Banner and Logan’s love story draws you right in and have you cheering for them to have their happily ever after. It isn’t always a smooth ride, but love never is and I can’t wait for the next book to see where Logan and Banner end!

I was blown away with this story!!! First, let me start off saying that I LOVED how this book started!!! It was a traditional meet and greet. Logan and Banner start talking via text messages and it only gets better from there!

The characters were amazing! Logan is this blue collar worker from Kentucky. He's the type of man who is hard working and isn't afraid to get his hand dirty. And OMG, he has this incredible alpha maleness thing going on with him...*fans self*. Banner is fun, quirky and spunky and a city girl. These two sorta have this opposites attract thing that also made their dynamic fun to read.

Most of all, the story was phenomenal! I was hooked from their very beginning. Like I said, I loved how they first got started to talking. Then once they actually met and how they met, it just got better and better! There were several parts where I was laughing out loud! Banner and her neighbor would have these hilarious conversations, if you want to call them that. They loved to tease each other! Of course, this book did not disappoint in the heat rating! SO HOT!

This is a favorite book by Meghan March!!! Everything about it was fantastic, the characters, the story, and even the writing. I highly recommend this book and I can't wait to read whats next!!!

*****FIVE STARS*****
{ARC Generously Provided by Author}


She’s the game changer. And now I’ve got my work cut out for me to make sure I win the game.



 photo RGM teaser 12_zpshzmt8i8b.png




This is the second Meghan March book I’ve read and it’s clear to see this woman creates some of the hottest alpha males out there in the literary world! I find her writing to be very entertaining and her stories seriously addictive. I could not get enough of REAL GOOD MAN and I am pretty sure that you won’t either!!! Be forewarned—this one is SCORCHING HOT!!



Banner Regent and Logan Brantley couldn’t come from more completely different worlds if they tried. Banner is a fancy New York socialite who lives in a beautiful Manhattan apartment and uses her trust fund to supplement her income. Logan Brantley is an ex-Marine who comes from a small town in Kentucky where everyone knows your name and your business! Somehow these two end up becoming text buddies. I’ll save the details on how this happens as it’s not the focal point of this story. Banner finds herself looking forward to her daily texts with Logan. She’s seen what he looks like and is more than attracted to him, but she’s the kind of girl who only has one-night-stands. Relationships are not her forte. Something about Logan has her wanting more.


 photo RGM teaser 9_zpsgukhblhy.png


Logan is also more than affected by Banner. He loves her saucy attitude and dirty talking mouth. Back home, he is the most sought after bachelor. There is no end to the amount of women who throw themselves at him and offer him home cooked meals. But before he went off to join the marines, he had a bad reputation and none of these women were giving him the time of day. The tables have turned as none of the women who try to charm him have been able to ignite any kind of spark within him. On a whim, he decides to take a ride up to NYC and he lets Banner know that he wants to meet her. At first, Banner is flipping out! The thought of seeing Logan excites and scares her at the same time. She knows herself all too well and fears that she’ll jump in the sack with him which will cause him to be one of her many one night stands, and she doesn’t want that with Logan. He’s become very special to her.



At first, they’re both afraid that they might not have anything in common, but after their first date, it becomes clear that they couldn’t be more right for one another! Although Banner didn’t plan on getting naked with Logan that first night, her hormones get the best of her and that is exactly what happens. They end up having the most mind-blowing sex of their lives, but then a misunderstanding the next morning has Logan heading back home and what was the beginning of something truly amazing is abruptly ended.



Not even a week later, Banner ends up losing her job and the lease on her apartment states that if she can’t show proof of steady income or a bank account with a sizeable amount deposited, she will be evicted. Since most of the current month’s trust fund has been spent on an invention she is working on she ultimately ends up losing her apartment. Luckily for Banner, her friend’s sister-in-law has a house in Kentucky that she’s been offered to house sit and even provided with a rental car to get around town with. One major bonus to relocating is that she will be in Logan’s hometown and the chance of seeing him again is more than a little tempting.


 photo RGM teaser 11_zps5lcpltr3.png




Since news spreads like wildfire in tiny towns, Logan learns quickly that Banner has taken up residence and he soon shows up on her doorstep. What starts off as bickering ends up turning into smoldering passion and Banner becomes the star of town gossip amongst all the jealous and catty women who were after Logan.



After spending just a couple of nights together Logan and Banner are realizing that they can’t get enough of each other and maybe what they have is something that goes beyond their wildest dreams. Unfortunately, Banner is asked to return back home for just a short visit and Logan can’t help feeling a bit anxious about whether or not she will be coming back to Kentucky. An unexpected discovery will cause his anxiety to intensify and leaves us with one seriously HUGE cliffy!!!


REAL GOOD MAN releases on January 3rd! Don’t miss out on this one! It’s a wildly entertaining and quick read!

Meghan March is the queen of dirty talking alphas and you know the moment you start reading one of her books, you have no choice but to crank up the AC while simultaneously stick your head in the freezer to cool the heck down! I Love that this author is never afraid to have her male heroes take charge and say whatever is on their mind. They’re extremely tough on the outside but they know how to treat women and I love seeing that.

Banner Regent is the self proclaimed Queen of night stands and she doesn’t care what anyone else thinks. Judge her all you want, but that’s what she chose to do and she’s not looking for anyone’s approval. With a best friend that anyone could ask for and a decent job, Banner is living the life of a New York party girl with no responsibilities. But her favorite pastime is having flirtatious conversations with a hot former military guy turned mechanic. Their funny banters via text messages has been the highlight of her days and having him a friend is more than she could’ve asked for.

But what happens when the fantasy turns into reality?

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

“This man owns my body, and there’s nothing I can do about it”.

Logan Brantley has been the star in every woman’s dream from his hometown in Gold Haven KY. Being dubbed as the one to lock down and marry as soon as possible, Logan is no stranger to the gossip mill. Being back home from the military and now running his own mechanic shop, his goal is to stay out of the rumorsville and make his shop a successful business his town. But when his daily chats from the sassy blonde takes a new turn, he decides to make the first move soon they can meet in person.

Will they’re assumptions they have of each other be correct?

I don’t want to go into too much detail but I will say that I really liked this one. It was sexy, with the perfect small town charm and it had just the right amount of humor without it feeling forced and I loved that. But what I didn’t like was that damn cliffhanger! Are you EFFING kidding me?! I’m really trying to lower my cuss word vocabulary to a minimum of 20 f bombs per day, but Meghan March you’re testing me! It’s a good thing we don’t have to wait too long for “Real Good Love”.

If you love a sexy quick read with dirty talking alphas, this one is for you guys.

➦Who doesn't want a real good man? Logan is a mechanic, works with his hands, lives in Kentucky... what else? drinks beer... probably. He's a legit good man with good manners and a big wrench.

➦Seriously, though

➦But personally I think that the heroine here (Banner) is the star of this story. She's a NY City party girl, an untamed wild animal with goals and ambitions. You go girl!

➦In all honesty, she's a cool chicka. SO. What happens here is that Banner and Logan somehow start texting. I'm trying REALLY HARD to remember how it happened but you know what, who cares? When/if you read the book it will be all explained to you in great detail. Something about Banner's friend borrowing Logan's phone at some point.

➦Yeah, yeah. I'm actually surprised you stuck around this long. lol So these two start FaceTiming and it goes something like this:


➦I'm kidding, people. But this would have been a very unexpected twist. No, Banner is definitely a woman and even though she never shows herself on camera she does get waaaay personal over texts one night. She might have had a bit too much to drink. Listen, it happens. SO Logan ends up reading multiple texts similar to

➦S'all good. Logan is a man. Naturally, he's not repulsed and when an opportunity arises for him to go to NYC he immediately decides that Banner is someone he just needs to meet.

➦Hopefully you are somewhat intrigued by this point. If not, well... read one of my other reviews? lol I recommend this book to anyone who likes romance with interesting characters and NAUGHTY TALKERS, cuz daymn, both Banner and Logan aren't afraid to say what they want. This is the first installment of the Real Duet and ends with a cliffy.

This was the last book I read in 2016 and I loved it!It was fast paced, sexy and funny, with an amazing hero to make you swoon and melt!

description

I loved this couple more than I expected.They made me laugh and swoon whenever they were together! Logan was fantastic. With his dirty mouth, sexy attitude and his good heart. I loved Banner, she's probably one of my favorite heroines. She was funny and honest. They were super hot and passionate together!

I can't wait for the next book. This is definitely one of my favorites by Meghan March. It was refreshing, funny and hot.

THREE REAL MAN STARS.

"There’s not one fucking thing about me that makes me the right guy for you. I’ve known that from day one."

description

I really liked the premise of this latest novel by Meghan March. Feeling tired of overdone storylines about the same type of heroes? If your answer is yes, then you'll be glad to know that March has brought something a little fresh to the romance writing table. As you can guess I was more than ready to get my hands on part one of this duet and as always March provided a likeable romance tale with plenty of swoon and heat.

What did I like?
Full of southern charm and manly hero goodness, March provided this British romance addict with a few hours of 'real man' entertainment. I really liked both hero and heroine and I especially adored this leading ladies sass and quirk. March, is the queen of providing erotic scenes to get the blood pumping and there is no denying this books steamy side. If original and likeable was this authors aim then she has hit the nail on the head. This storyline gave her readers something to smile about and although it didn't wow me completely I definitely found lots to like.

description

Why not five?
I don't know if it's the mood I'm in, or if I've read too many similar steamy books recently but, as soon as the couple met they jumped right into the proverbial bed and I have to say I was a little disappointed. I wanted way more tension and a lot more resistance between the couple. If you are searching for a sexy, quick romp with an added semi cliff hanger then this book will be just the ticket. As for myself I was looking to be enthralled with a winning romance and connection between the characters. That's not to say that I didn't enjoy this couples interaction as you can tell I enjoyed this heroine and her 'go get them' vibe I just wanted to be somewhat more convinced at the story telling over all.

description

Final thoughts ...
Meghan March, is an author that I came to enjoy last year, her books are always guaranteed to give plenty of steam and romance with a healthy dose of 'feel good'. This duet is set up to be a sweet ride for most readers and I'm looking forward to seeing how this book concludes in part two of the duet. Enjoy ... kisses.

I should have waited for this Real Good Man...

I'm a shocker. I'm way too impatient, emotional and quick to jump in. If I'd only waited 9 more days I wouldn't be sitting here... waiting... hoping... for this Real Good Man to give me Real Good Love.

I enjoyed reading Real Good Man. I have been eyeing Megan March's books for ages. When the plot for Real Good Man caught my attention, I knew that it was the perfect introduction to seeing what's caught all my book-friends' attention.

Logan is my kind of man. Hard working, determined, bossy, sexy and HOT!!! Logan has not had the easiest life. He knows that if he works hard enough and avoids causing gossip in his small town, he will get ahead. With his nose to the grind to make his business a success, Logan is surprised when his thoughts are consumed by text messages from a woman he has never met. Every time his phone lights up he's excited. What will she say? Is she going to shock him...again? What will he say this time when it comes to avoiding the bad and finding a good man, a real man?

I liked Banner and her friends, hated (HATED) her parents...and felt a little sorry for her. To the outside world, she probably looked well put together and had it all. Surprisingly, her life has gone to the crapper, except for one little thing. She has formed a connection with a man who seems to like her for herself. Logan Real Man Brantley is the first man she's had a relationship with that doesn't involve sex. Friendship with a man is unusual for Banner. She tends to ride in and out in one night, and never goes back for more.

For Logan and Banner, things are about to change.

I enjoyed this story, but I was a wee bit frustrated that I'm left hanging. Yeah, yeah, I knew it was a duet, but there's this little bit inside me that hoped that I'd be happy for now and confident where they're at. Alas, that was not meant to be. Maybe, I would have known this if I had read this author's previous works, but I'm impatient.

It's all good. I can wait 9 days for more. Well, I think I can...

“Fall for a woman over text messages? No way in hell.”

description

I took one look at this book cover and read the synopsis and I was utterly done for. Wow! Let’s face it, who doesn’t love an ex-military alpha hero turned mechanic? I know I certainly do. I was highly anticipating this read, because it contains all the things I love about romance stories; a good ol’ boy from the south who has no problem fighting for his country, good with his hands and getting dirty. What is there not to love about this “Real Good Man.”

This story all starts with a series of text messages. Who knew that an innocent text message with a stranger would lead to something so incredible? It all started when Banner receives a text message from an unknown number. It was her best friend Greer, borrowing someone’s phone to text her. That someone is none other than Logan and they continue to keep in contact. Banner, who has no luck what so ever with New York men, values Logan’s opinion and he soon becomes her confidant.

I absolutely loved Banner, to me, she made this story. She is a New York City party girl who’s cheeky, full of sass, but with absolutely no filter. She’ll say whatever she thinks whenever she wants without a care as to who is listening. I found her to be an absolutely laugh out loud hilarious character and a complete breath of fresh air for this story.

description

What can I say about Logan? I also loved him. He is the ultimate red-blooded alpha hero, one whom you can’t help but fall in love with. Logan is an ex-military mechanic from Kentucky and I am dead serious when I say there is nothing not to love about him. If you’re like me and love a great alpha hero, then look no further, because Logan is absolutely perfect.

I loved this story and I loved these characters. Not only does Meghan know how to write thrilling and fun stories that keep you engaged from the very beginning, but she knows how to write sexy as hell alpha heroes, with the perfect heroine to match. If you haven’t read this book as yet I highly recommend it. “Real Good Man” does end it a cliffy, but I’m happy to report the second in the duet “Real Good Love” is available now.

If you haven't had the pleasure to be introduced to a Real Man, please let me do the honors.

Logan Brantley is a man I would utterly love to have. He is whole, he is sweet, he is caring, he is hot, he's swooney, and holy shit, did I say he's hot?, and oh my he knows how to stake his claim. I loved it, I love him and I can not wait to get more of him.

Banner Regent. You sexy sexpod. You are a whitty hilarious individual that is kind and so easy to fall in love with as a character. You are lost but you are certainly finding your way to the life you were meant to have, I think..... that ending. Oh my god that ending. Again, pat on the back for waiting until the second book in this duet was out !!!

Who knew text messaging a stranger can lead to friendship turned romance? Well for Banner Regent , she never thought her text buddy could be the game changer in allowing her to see that a real good man does exist. Banner is no stranger to random and casual hookups but in the end she hasn’t found anything to excite her that is until Logan.

RGM Banner teaser (1)

Logan Brantley never thought he could so easily fall for Banner in just a few text messages but he did. He was intrigued by her saucy personality and of course her dirty mouth. Everything about her excites him. As one of the most hottest eligible bachelors, Logan can get any woman that he wants but he has an eye for a certain New Yorker. So can this rugged Kentucky small town alpha hero win the heart of the city girl?

RGM teaser 12

Real Good Man was the book that I needed to kick off 2017. This book was sexy, steamy, entertaining, and highly addicting. Meghan March flawlessly delivered a story that had readers like myself devouring each page and wanting more of Banner and Logan. So if you are looking for a love story that is easily sucks you in and has you begging for more of March’s vibrant and steamy prose then look no further than this book.

I am a fool...You would think I would remember while reading this... it says clearly it is part of a DUET!!! So when I slammed up against the Sort of Cliffy...It all came crashing back to me... there is another book attached to this...Now with that said...

Am I annoyed...No.
Did I have a fast, sexy, quick-smart banter experience...

Hell Yeah...

Was it hot and happening with all the promises fulfilled from the blurb...
Yes to that too...

So to sum up my take on this... I really liked it...


It did have a couple of bumps in the road, though... and they weren't huge...But one was how the main character, Banner, saw herself. It was truly unfortunate she thought in unbecoming terms about herself and how she led her sex life. It was opposite to who she was as a person...She seemed more self assured and understanding of how she communicated and her goals. It wasn't a huge thing... but it did strike me a couple of times while reading.

I am letting my enthusiasm also accept some of the other cliches about small towns and women only wanting men for a paycheck...They were necessary for the plot and I got it. The crafting worked and I am one to say right on when I am fully immersed in a tale.

I would be remiss if I didn't mention the Amazingly Real Good Man our guy Logan is...He is good in so many ways and to be specific would take all the fun out of your reading pleasure.

So over all, it was a Real Good Read... and I will be right there to catch the ending of this Duet...

No. No. Just no!! I had high hopes for this book, the story sounded very good. Also, the "sexy times" were a bit too "much". I'm not a prude but seriously??!!

4* let's get dirty STARS!!

I didn't realize somehow this book connected with the other Dirty series. I liked both series and it was okay for me. But this one really won my heart. It feels different because the hero isn't billionaire or rich boys and the heroine is kick-ass enough.

Banner Regent was the queen of one night stand and very wild girl. Very determined, independent and feisty. Insta-love! Banner is really friendly also with her famous dirty jokes. Btw, I thought her names is weird, apparently there's a story lies under her family. Banner came from rich family but she didn't want to depend on it. She kinda loathed her selfish parents. Oh, Banner is Greer's best friend (Dirty Girl Duet).

description

Logan Brantley. I should know this man from The Dirty Billionaire Trilogy because she's Holly Wix's friend. Logan is easily likable person. A real good man, like the title itself. He is a mechanic/shop owner also the most eligible bachelor in town. Every girl is dying to get in his bed but he politely declined. Logan only ached for Banner, the town girl with dirty mouth.
“Finish your food. Then you can go take them off.”
“I’m not hungry for this anymore.”
“What are you hungry for, Banner?”
“I want that big cock in my mouth so I can remind you just how hard I can make you come.”
Fuck . . . this woman.

I already loved their banter over text messages also in real. It was funnier when they met for the first time. A bit awkward and unexpected. Logan is really gentleman to the core. Everything seems too perfect and ended up in bad way. Banner isn't ready for more and Logan was over-reacted with abrupt left. Both Banner and Logan faced their own demons. She has a series of unfortunate events happened to her. From her future business until she came to Kentucky and borrowed Holly's place in Gold Haven, Kentucky. Moreover, the female population in the small town didn't really like her. Also, Logan confused with his own feeling. Somehow he feels insecure.

Logan and Banner are finally cleared up their issues and moving on. They're really not holding out the sex. Really OVER THE TOP! Freaking HOT! Logan is very dominant and in control. Yum! He's also quite kinky. Logan could do me every day. No wonder Banner couldn't forget him. Pft. They're really hot for each other.
“You’re so fucking wet. I can’t believe you came with just your nipples in my mouth. You’re gonna come harder this time. And then even harder when I’ve got my cock buried inside you. Understand?”
description

Anyway, there is no OTT drama but I'm surprised with the suspense. Something bad haunted the town and everybody seems agitated. I wonder what happened and who did it. Overall, it was a great read and well-written. Even it wasn't perfect, I still enjoyed it very much.
Women are strange and unique creatures to begin with, but Banner is in her own league. When she bites into a crispy strip of bacon, the moan she lets out goes straight to my balls, reminding me of what she sounded like when she came on my fingers, mouth, and cock.

4,5 stars. It's funny, it's mind blowing hot and it's a rollercoaster. The story of two opposites attract each other, and even if they try they can not do anything to stop it.



About the plot: Banner Regent has a sassy attitude, lack of filter and is the queen of one-night stands as she says about herself alone. She met Logan, when he let her best friend wrote to her via his phone. They started texting to each other and became friends. Completely different worlds and hundreds of kilometers separating New York and Kentucky gave her a sense of security that she will not be able to screw it up with the bad habits.

“Logan is supposed to stay inside my little magic box of a phone where I feel like I’m still in control, because the second he becomes real, as in flesh and blood, all bets are off.”


But Logan Brantley is fascinated by her and wants to get to know a girl, which is so different from those around him. He has no illusions but leaves for New York to meet her and get rid of this enchantment. Because the fantasy can not be better than the imagination, right?

“I wanted to be sure she’ll remember me, but she’s making it so I’ll never forget her.”


Final thoughts: This is my first book of Meghan March and I can say that she did very good first impression on me. The blurb is quite awesome, but it's much more than that.

Firstly, it is like a romantic comedy. The main heroine is very funny and provide you plenty of smiles while reading. Secondly, is a erotic romance, because let me tell you, it is scorching hot. They have tons of amazing dirty exchanges. And the dominant side of Logan inflame you to the red.

“So you don’t think I should take my neighbor’s advice and keep my legs closed?”
“Only if you want your pussy to be even tighter while I fuck you.”


And finally, elements of suspense, because you'll find a little mysterious and dangerous action in the plot. It becomes even more interesting when a city girl put her foot in a small town. And this is by far my favorite moments.

Keep in mind that is a duet and ends with a cliffhanger. But the second part, Real Good Love, already in January 17th. And after the end I'm sure everyone will want to read what happens next. I didn't give the full stars just to leave a room to rating the whole story. But I definitely recommend it for everyone who wants to read a funny opposites attract kind of book.

I write this one before I read the 2nd book.

So, I liked the idea of the female character. Strong independent woman who preferred to have ONSs and was not looking for commitment. Why not? Since the most romance books describe sexy male leads in this way and the most readers are amused, why not to bring up a heroine who enjoys casual sex?! I support it!

Well, the concept of the heroine was better that its development.
Firstly, who the f*ck regularly insults his/her daughter/friend/neighbour/co-worker and tells her (=h) she is a slut/hooker/skank etc.? Were all these side characters freaking virgins or Jehovah's Witnesses? Common, guys, it’s 21st century and not the Stone Age! The worse part the heroine thought she was not worth better and that nobody wanted her. Girl, if you like sex, it doesn’t degrade you to slut status; so, stay strong or join monastery! But never doubt yourself! It doesn’t mean I support sexual über-activity with many partners, but I also don’t support social judgment of the women who like casual sex. It’s ok and super hot when a man screws around, but it’s so unappealing when a woman does the same?!

Ok, move on…
They texted, they met, they had sex and she didn’t want her BFF to meet him coz she thought it was one-time deal. And? So what? Was it enough for him to behave like an offended catholic school girl? What about mature adult talk? Man up, man!

And why to make her come to him by making her look like a loser (she was fired, she got evicted – coz she didn’t read her lease properly)? Why to make her immediately fall in bed with him? Why to add small town drama and again let the people call her slut etc.?

All that just ruined a strong character of the heroine for me. Yeah, I liked how she stood up for herself and her sharp tongue, but all mess around just cheapened it a lot.

Well, I assume a hero was a nice guy.(?) He wasn’t bad, but I couldn’t connect to him.

“Let’s have anal” was freaking romantic!!! *eye roll*

Cliffy was freaking annoying.

What makes me like this book is Logan. Miss March had a knack for X Men characters that she made her characters in Real Good Man based on X Men's names: Banner and Logan. This is not MM romance. The heroine name is Banner.

I am not shy to say Banner is a kick ass heroine. She is un apologetic in term of her sexuality. She even admitted she is the queen of ONS. While Logan is a simple man with old soul. That makes him a good man.

Their banter is super fun and easy. They hve chemistry. Not a lot of descriptive sex but enough to make the focus on the development of the characters.

Overall I enjoy this book.

NYC Girl Banner Regent is ballsy, mouthy and funny and she's been texting sexy hot mechanic from Kentucky Logan Brantley. The bed sheets catch fire once they meet if only for a one night stand but when Banner loses her job and her apartment she finds herself moving to a friends house in Kentucky and she and Logan's sex life heats up even more. I love Meghan March's books although I did find this one a little fast into the sex it's always nice to build some tension. But the story line was engaging, the characters lovable and hilarious and sex was HOT and there is a cliffhanger. Narrated by the talented Elena Wolfe and the sexy tones of the brilliant Sebastian York.

Hot Hot Hot



I was dying to read this duet when I knew it was goin to be Banner and Logan. I knew there story was goin to be good an it was well the start of it anyway. This was sexy hot funny there a few crazy woman and some drama so this basically as everything. Logan is very sexy I would kick him out of bed at al. He's a gentleman and caring and I really like the way he is with Banner and he's hot when it comes to the bedroom. Banner is just crazy funny I luv her character the way she is with everyone is so funny but there a side to her that she wants people to see but they just see her for something she isn't and it actually annoys me I m glad when Logan pulls her on it. I really enjoying this book and i m dying for the next and last book. I only started reading this author a few months ago and I m so glad I did her book al brilliant i would highly recommend them.

Opposites Attract in the best way possible

Banner and Logan didn't meet in conventional way. They began texting before meeting. When Logan gets the opportunity to drive to New Your to meet Banner He isn't going to pass that up.

Can I just say I loved Banner. It's not often I like the female character more than the male character, but I did love her.

Their chemistry was hot, and I can't wait for book two, thank god we don't have to wait long at all.

Логан Брантли и Бенър Риджънт

"Истински добър мъж" в Читанка



Бенър е купонджийка. Прекарала целият си живот в Ню Йорк, отгледана в богато семейство, на пръв поглед тя е разглезена богаташка, която не е работила нито ден в живота си, и не се интересува от нищо друго освен поредният купон и поредният мъж. Когато най-добрата й приятелка Гриър изпраща на Бенър СМС от телефона на Логан двамата започват да си пишат. И както може да се очаква идва времето в което трябва да се видят лице в лице. Бенър е ужасена. Свикнала само със свалки и секс за една нощ, тя се бои че ще оплеска всичко, като си легне с Логан, а не иска това да се случва защото е започнала истински да цени приятелството им. И все пак събира сили и се среща с него. След една страхотна вечер в компанията един на друг и една още по страхотна нощ в дома й, на сутринта Бенър не знае какво да прави и тотално оплесква нещата, карайки Логан да си тръгне ядосан и с наранена гордост. Скоро обаче, след низ от проблеми Бенър се оказва в дома на бабата на Холи в Голд Хейвън на една ръка разстояние от Логан. Където местните жени виждат в нея съперничка и където Логан смята да я накара да се влюби в него.



Логан е бивш пехотинец, завърнал се в родният град след уволнението си, където купува местният гараж за ремонти на коли. Неговата страст е да реставрира стари коли. След няколко седмици в писане с Бенър той иска да я види лице в лице, и когато трябва да откара до града една от реставрираните коли на собственика й, той моли Бенър за среща. Бенър се оказва всичко за което е мечтал, че дори и повече, и щом се появява в града му, отсядайки в къщата на Холи Уикс, Логан е решен да й покаже, че той е правилният мъж за нея, без значение пред какво се изправят, той се зарича да я накара да се влюби в него.



Браво Мегъъъън. Уникална. 5 страхотни ***** от мен. Признавам започнах книгата с резерви. В книгите на Гриър Бенър ми се видя фриволна, малко долнопробна и мислех, че не заслужава бонбончето Логан, но Мегън Марч доказа за пореден път, че е царица на неочакваните обрати. Като се добави и това, че тук авторката не е наблегнала прекалено много на любовните сцени, останах наистина очарована от тази първа част на двулогията. Книгата беше адски забавна. Смяла съм се с глас на Операция: да купим лубрикант и не мисля че скоро ще я забравя. А края???Божеее какъв край. Как ще издържа до 17ти когато излиза втората книга направо не знам. Едно обаче знам. Отново страхотна поредица, която препоръчвам горещо на всеки <3 <3 <3



07.10.2019г. Обожавам тази книга и не ми пречи да си я препрочитам отново и отново. Така забавно чаровна, така прекрасна и интересна.

I liked this story. It's was fun, sweet and hot as hell. What made this story great and not amazing was Banner. I liked her just fine but I didn't connect with her. I'm all for a woman who's confident in her sexuality and loves sex but when Banner keeps talking about her one night stands and how wet and creamy Logan makes her it gets tiring pretty fast. I need more depth from a character. Yes, I get to see another side of Banner but it's when I'm over halfway through and then it didn't seem to make a difference.

Logan is fantastic. Yes, he's a real man and knows how to treat women right and specifically Banner. I enjoyed everything about Logan. He's a gentleman no matter what and an alpha in bed. Their chemistry is sizzling and it gets pretty hot. I would have loved if they connected through deeper conversations instead of sex because when they do go on dates as the one they went on in the beginning of the story it's where the magic happens
Overall I really enjoyed this story and Meghan March definitely knows how to write. I love her prose and that's also the reason why I'm going to read her other work.

This is going to be a short review because this is book 1 in a duet, and I am going to write a full review after I finish book 2.

I struggled in the beginning with this one, especially with the heroine, Banner, but that is normal for me and this author. By the end, she was someone I could hang out with. She was funny, said what was on her mind, and didn’t take crap from anyone. She was the talk of the town, especially after Logan Brantley makes it known who he wants.

.Yes, this ends in a minor cliffy, so I am off to start book 2.
