4.5 StarsWith every book I read by Ruthie Knox, I love her more and more and I'm very excited about her Camelot series. This book however is HUGE because it proves Ruthie can write a novella whose characters are well developed and memorable, but whose story is exciting, pleasurable, and damn hot! It also has me salivating for the release of the next two books!I love stories that start out when two people are forced to spend time together during an emergency situation and in How to Misbehave, Tony and Amber must wait out in the basement of a community center during a tornado warning. However, instead of jumping each other's bones they wind up talking and sharing some pretty personal information. That's not to say they both aren't thinking about the bone jumping thing, they just hold off for a little while.These two characters are fun and interesting. What I love is their outward appearance doesn't quite match what's on the inside. While it seems they come from completely opposite ends of the spectrum, she being a "good girl" and he being a "bad boy." It becomes quite obvious that they are perfectly matched in all areas. Tony really tries to do the right thing and steer clear of Amber but when she gets naked and practically challenges him, what's a guy to do? Even when he messes up, he does it with the best of intentions and it's hard to fault him. I really feel for Amber because her two previous sexual experiences were not good, so when she finally understands what it means to have great sex she's faced with all kinds of feelings she's not ready to deal with.I love how Tony helps Amber learn to misbehave and prompts her into using crude language; it's equally satisfying to watch how excited Tony gets when she uses that language and her reaction when he does. Just remembering the scenes between these two characters brings an immediate smile to my face. Their intimate scenes are often out of control yet so touching that it's easy to see why they are both confused. Together they are combustible and you can just feel their passion with every encounter. Amber is great as well, helping Tony work through some pretty big past hurts and helping him learn to forgive himself.This book moves quickly, but I never felt cheated both characters went through some pretty big emotional mine fields making the swiftness of their journey believable. How To Misbehave is another fantastic offering from the talented Ruthie Knox and if this is indicative of this series, I can only imagine how amazing the next two books will be!Review copy provided for an honest review.
