When Alex Was Bad: A Novel of Erotic Suspense
Reviewer:
I loved this story. Normally I don't care for infidelity in storylines, but the way this was written was so good that you just didn't care. Alex is an ass, no question about it. But he's a lovable Alpha ass, so he gets away with it. He's a man who's totally in love with his wife but his pretty much ruled by his penis. The true powers in this triad are Olivia and Jason. Olivia, the playful Mistress (think Beta Dom) and Jason the oh so sexy Sub are the ones who keep this story fun. In allowing Alex to have seven affairs, Olivia is actually manipulating him. It's quite entertaining to watch. I would highly recommend reading WHEN ALEX WAS BAD. Shelf your preconceived notions and just enjoy.

Well, well Alex is indeed a very bad boy so it's a good thing he has an understanding wife whose figured out a way to punish him for his errant behaviour. This is some fine erotica with a premise that really interested me and luckily doesn't disappoint. Written along the lines of Lauren Danes LAID BARE (except without all the great dialogue) this is a wicked little story where just about anything goes. I will admit that I had to read WHEN ALEX WAS BAD interspaced with another book because well, Alex is bad every other page. (That man has some serious stamina) So if your looking for hot, sexy, erotic loving with M/F, M/M and M/F/M action including light bondage, exhibitionism and multiple partners all tossed together with a murder mystery plot then this should do it for you.
After 15 years together Alex and Olivia have become strangers within their marriage and the bedroom. In fact things have come to such a point that Alex is tempted to cheat and Olivia knows it. In order to save her marriage Olivia comes up a bold plan, she will allow Alex seven nights of pleasure with anyone he chooses providing he confess in explicit detail to each liaison. However he must then also agree to accept any form of mischievous punishment his wife can dream up. No questions asked.
With Alex's first indiscretion and subsequent punishment out of the way the plan seems to be working wonders. Sure they were both worried as to how this would play out but now they're more in love than ever, Alex never knew his wife had a deviant side and Olivia is learning some things about Alex as well. However when the lovely but mysterious Jason Strickland moves in next door Olivia wastes no time in taking the young lover as her own and then inviting him as a third into their lurid deal. But this shy boy-next-door isn't so innocent, Jason has a dark past and when one of them falls in love with him it may just destroy everything.
Could this be the end for Alex and Olivia or will they somehow manage to find their way out of the web of lies and murder and make room in their hearts for another?
Reviewer:
As Olivia Quinn watches her husband Alex almost succumb to the beauty trying to seduce him, she makes a decision. A decision that she hopes will save her marriage and make her relationship with her husband stronger. Olivia puts her plan into motion and discusses this with Alex. He seems hesitant, but is unable to contain his excitement. Olivia's plan? Alex can cheat seven times. He is allowed to stray seven times and afterwards he has to tell Olivia everything and then accept any punishment she deems worthy. Alex is more than aroused at the thought of this plan, but when he realizes that Olivia's discipline will include their new next door neighbor, Jason Strickland, he is not sure what he feels. There is more to Jason than meets the eye - but can he be trusted because there is definitely someone out to get Alex and that someone wants him dead.

This is another one of the stories that people either loved or hated. It is somewhat different from what author Jo Davis normally writes. It goes from romantic to erotic. The erotic includes man on man sex which some readers are perfectly okay with and some readers, well, just not their cup of tea. That is why these books tend to get the one star from some readers even though a perfectly good, fun, well written books.
