A lot of readers complain that romance novels are all alike--that they follow a formula. Lady Be Bad is not a formula book so it should appeal to readers who want a different kind of romance.Yes, it's got the typical Elaine Raco Chase heroine. Marlayna is beautiful, smart, and has a heart of gold. She knows what she wants, and what she wants is the one man she can't have. Or can she?Noah Drake is definitely not your usual romance novel hero. No rose-colored glasses obscure his outlook on life, and his physical imperfections are plainly visible for readers to see. He's not perfect, and that's kind of refreshing. He's a man who survived tragedy.Does that mean he isn't sexy and virile? Heck, no! He's hot for Marlayna, and he's not shy about showing it and acting on it.Lady Be Bad is a heartwarming story with enough sensuality to please romance readers who like it spicy. With a man and a woman meant for each other, funny well-drawn secondary characters, and evocatively described settings, Ms. Chase's fans will be delighted that she has brought another of her bestselling print novels to ebooks.
