Book Review: Fundamentals of Being a Good Girl by Julie Murphy & Sierra Simone
Fundamentals of Being a Good Girl by Julie Murphy & Sierra Simone
– Single Dad Professor
– Feisty Law School Grad turned Nanny
– Forbidden Romance
– Nanny x Boss
– Age Gap
– Good girl “lessons”
Maddie Kowalczk never imagined her new boss would be the hot one-night stand from the other night. Talk about worlds colliding…things are about to get a little sticky.
If Maddie is to be free from the past she needs to stand up and fight for what she wants. If she can find the courage to demand what she needs and be a good girl…everything hers for the taking.
Mistakes, obligations, expectations, assumptions, and a cast of characters in a story that has lots of heat, a little kink, and a plant daddy.
Professor Loe is available for office hours and ready to see you. Enter if you dare.
Readers of this duo’s A Merry Little Meet Cute might enjoy this standalone interconnected Inferno read. There are graphic and detailed scenes that include any or all of the following: Erotica, BDSM, more than one partner in an intimate scene, or something mentioned in the authors Trigger Content Warning. These books are intended for 18+ and content may be considered taboo for some readers.
Always honest, always my own, and thankful to Avon for an advance reader copy.

Thrown for a Loop by Sarina Bowen
✔ Dual Timeline
✔ Second Chances

✔ Forced Proximity
✔ Charity event
From the ice rinks at skating camp to present day NHL this second chance dual timeline discovers what happens when expectations, obligations, and fear navigate our lives.
From the moment Zoe and Chase met there were sparks…so why when their future together was full of dreams and hopes did Chase walk away?

Mug filled with coffee.
Peppermint and chocolate stash to snack on while I wait for a homemade batch of brownies.
Cool winter day, plenty of books to read, football on the tv in the background, a cozy blanket, and a spicy seasonal candle.
