3.5 StarsI was right there with you, Nina. Right. There. Until the ending… The ending to Gorgeous Rotten Scoundrel was SO abrupt; like running full force into a brick wall. KA-BAM! I wasn’t prepared for it to wrap up so quickly. I wanted more, expected more. Where was my more?! One second the world more or less ended and the next it was sunshine, glitter and rainbows.I’m still not over it.Sadie is a love scorn professional cook. Heath is a cocky male model in need of a little help keeping his figure in tip top shape. Seems like a match made in employment heaven. Well, not exactly. Heath is a man whore and after being scorn by a previous lover, Sadie wants nothing to do with him. She’ll cook his food, even plan his parties, but she WILL NOT become romantically involved with another pretty face. Nope. Never.And then she does."All I wanted to do was stay guarder since I met him, but this was a total unraveling. I came undone on his lap and lost complete control."When Heath finds himself laid up for the summer (on the Hamptons no less) he has no one to rely on to take care of him but Sadie. As time passes, the two grow closer and despite their best efforts, begin to fall for one another. Until the shit hits the fan…Being inside of Sadie’s head made me giggle. I think we’d be good friends if she weren’t a fictional character. She’s sarcastic, snarky and indecisive. But she also has this heart of gold. Sadie sticks by Heath when most people would have packed up their belongings and hit the road. We’re talking wild sex parties, rude comments – cocky, self-centered behavior. I struggled right along with Sadie. I wanted to hate him. I really did. It was tough… The banter between the two made it almost impossible. Once Health showed his real colors, forget it, I was a goner.Gorgeous Rotten Scoundrel popped my Nina G. Jones cherry. The ending killed me, but I am anxious to read more. Nina’s writing kept me engaged and entertained throughout the entire novel. I’d label this as a fun summer read, and encourage you to spend a lazy afternoon experiencing all that is Heath Hildebrand.
