I dubbed myself the school bully and the ice queen was my target. It’s her own fault though; I’d never met a woman so ridiculously uptight you would need a whole army to pull the giant stick out of her butt. I had to have her. The Bad Rebound – Mr. Rebound I told myself I would no longer prey on emotionally unstable women. I don’t do relationships—I’m a selfish bastard who enjoys not answering to anyone—and relationships mean being with only one woman. My cousin, Charlie, dared me to settle down with one woman. So, I chose Scarlett Winters, the most sought-after actress in Hollywood and also the sexiest woman on Earth.

But then it turned into an obsession every Monday night. And I don’t know what’s harder—hiding how I feel about his sister from my best friend or watching the woman I want live a life with someone else. The Bad Hollywood Alpha - Bad Boy Rich I’m a self-proclaimed bad boy. The ultimate heartbreaker, and your daddy’s worst nightmare. The lethal mix every woman should stay away from.

The holy water ready to wash away my sins. The out-of-towner miss-goody-two shoes became my saving grace. And there’s no chance in hell I would let go of her now. No. She is mine.
