Cute and predictable! This was a cutesy tale about two old friends who finally manage to meet up with one another and try their hands at what a relationship might be like. They get to finally move on, and change their past mistakes. The romance was the main storyline, so if you don't like romance don't read this one.

Sex scenes were semi-explicit, I thought there would be more since one of the characters worked in the adult industry coming up with new concept designs for adult toys lol.

But overall it was a good read and I wouldn't be surprised if I pick up another one by St. John.

I love Kelley St John's Books and this one is no exception with the usual laugh out loud parts that I have found in her other books. It's a great book about being caught up in a lie and not being able to get out of it.

I thought this was a good book, but sort of...smutty. I enjoyed it all the same, and I liked the classic ending.

Here's my review for Kelley St. John's GOOD GIRLS DON'T, a 'smutty' book I encountered during my ENT residency at Tripler Army Medical Center, having been rather insidiously left around my co-residents' desk.

Having skimmed through it, the plot aligns with most other 'trashy' romances; it would likely suffice as a quick airplane read. Its 'smuttiness' is certainly enough to prompt thoughts of reporting it to a superior, though one can anticipate the ensuing eye-rolls, gaslighting, and snickering accusations of being a 'Prude Karen.' But I digress; back to the book itself.

Ultimately, it's a 3-star read for me. It's certainly not something I would choose to read (or write) unless absolutely compelled.

Une histoire assez prévisible, c'était sympa mais sans plus.

J'ai beaucoup roulé des yeux sur Lettie qui se morfond pendant une semaine à cause de son mensonge et qui crève d'envie de tout avouer. Pourquoi elle l'a pas fait du coup ? surtout qu'elle a menti pour couvrir une ado de 18 ans, franchement (faut les mater ces petits jeunes xD). Et puis, Bill il pardonne à sa nièce en un clin d'oeil, mais il a du mal avec la nana qu'il aime depuis 20 ans ? euh ok... xD

Parcontre j'ai bien aimé Lettie et sa soeur Amy, le boulot d'Amy ^^, et le cowboy d'Amy... en fait dans ce bouquin Amy est vachement plus agréable à suivre xD

Ok, I wasn't sure at the beginning, because it was a silly premise but I did enjoy the book. It was a quick read with a main love story, a secondary, a third and the mention of a fourth. So lots of different characters to get to know. They all fell pretty fast, but it was still an enjoyable read.

I would have enjoyed this one more if there was a little more romance and less sex.

It wasn't awful in the beginning, but it got progressively worse until it just couldn't be saved.
