Confessions of a Bad Boy by J.D. Hawkins
3.5
emotional fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

This book started out fun, with lots of potential for a great read. Flirting, passion, a fake relationship between childhood friends, all good. Their fling is so hot and good, but I got really annoyed after the big plot twist.
I really don’t like the unplanned/surprise baby trope. I feel it is overdone, and I just get annoyed by it. I do think this book doesn’t handle it the worst I’ve read, and maybe I’m so annoyed because this is the fourth book this month that dropped it on me, but I didn’t feel the story needed it. Nate going from the bad boy who never does more than a one night stand to falling in love and realizing that would have been enough without throwing a baby in the mix.
