5 Books Where We LOVE The Bad Boy
I think it is fair to say, we all love a bad boy, and while I disagree with the ‘nice guys finish last’ quip, they don’t exactly get your heart racing, or get you hot, bothered and blushing like a schoolgirl.
We love the toxicity, the ‘I can fix him’ ideology, and, even better, the growly ‘who did this to you?’ it gets the girlies giggling with glee. So here are some of my personal favourite Book-ish bad boys. You’re welcome in advance.
Fourth Wing’s Xaden Riorson
He’s moody, he’s broody, he’s a rebel with a cause, tattoos and ‘fuck-around-and-find-out’ vibes. Swooooonnn
Skin of a Sinner’s Roman Riviera
A fairytale ‘Knight in Shining Armour’ turned psychopath with classic ‘touch her, you die’ vibes.
Twisted Love’s Alex Volkov
He’s filthy rich, manipulative and has a heart of stone. He’ll probably shoot you with a smile on his face, and you’ll thank him for it. He is just that handsome.
Bonded by Thorns Caspian & Keldaroin
Is Caspian the villain? I don’t know, and I don’t care. Keldarion is icy (he is the prince of winter, so it tracks), but hey! We all want what we cannot have.
Haunting Adeline’s Zade Meadows
Do I have to explain this one? It’s that scene in the conservatory with the gun. IYKYK.
