I have been really looking forward to getting Bad Boys Ahoy!, which got me thinking on the whole Bad Boy thang. I know I have talked a little about Brava and their Bad Boys, you can find many of their authors at the Brava Authors home page. But I did a lil digging around, which one thing led to another led to another – and poof we have a link happy post.

From what I can tell, these aren’t guidelines for the books about BAD BOYS but it seems more of a ‘brand name’. You can submit any type of book, but it has to be very sensual. So the hero doesn’t have to fit a role of a bad man. I am thinking ‘wicked women’ is the same thing, but that is a different post ;).

I think I have all of the books that are out here, along with the ones coming out this year that I found info on. Feel free to jump in if you know of any others. Or if you have submitted a BB book to brava, tell us about it. Is her a hero a bad man? This is a very link happy post, so let me know if something doesn’t go where it should, hee if anyone is interested in this besides me :).

It looks like I only did one combo review but am going to do more! I might keep mixing and matching… I am not sure. Unless it is an ARC than I will review the whole book at once.

on with the books:
