Better When He's Bold by Jay Crownover



In a dark and broken kingdom, a ruler has to be fearless to control the streets and the ruthless people who run them.

Race Hartman is just bold enough, just smart enough, and just lost enough to wear the crown. Places like the Point will always have bad things and bad people, but the man in control of all that badness can minimize the devastation. Race has a plan, but can he prevent total annihilation without destroying himself?

Brysen Carter has always seen her best friend's brother for what he is--too pretty, too smooth, and way too dangerous to touch. Basking in Race's golden glow is very tempting, but Brysen knows she'd eventually get burned.

When she starts receiving threatening texts and someone tries to take her out in parking lot, the only person interested in keeping her safe is the one man she can't allow herself to have.

Sometimes being bold is the only way to stay alive. But can she let Race save her life . . . if it means losing herself to him?
 " Better When He's Bad summary on Goodreads "


I loved loved loved this book and the series so far. The Welcome to the point books by Jay Crownover are dark, and sexy but also really funny. The characters are so far from the perfect squeaky clean romance novel standard and I like it better that way.

Race, he really won me over in this book. In Better when He’s Bad I thought he was kind of a slime ball, and maybe also a coward. I had a little bit better of an opinon when the book ended and everything was revealed, but I wasn’t that excited for his book.  My opinion totally changed once I started Bold. He was the perfect mix of bad guy criminal and a good heart. He definatly won’t win an award for his humanitarianism , but underneath it all, WAY DOWN deep, he was a good guy. OH! and super sexy! Hello! Jay Crownover always writes some of the hottest male characters and Race was no exception.

Brysen! I adored her. I really Identified with her, and she was honestly one of my new favorite females leads from this author. I liked that she wasn’t a moron and she was open and honest. It drives me crazy when the female lead holds in all of her feelings and fakes it through the book. Bry fought her crush at the beginning but once they kissed she was open and honest with Race and I loved it.
 This book had a lot of action packed twists, and although it wasn't as explosive as Better When He's Bad, there was still plenty of gritty storyline that kept it from being a cheesy romance novel about the Rich boy gone bad.
While reading, I also kept thinking of Margot Robbie for Brysen. I couldn’t really picture a good Race.


This book got five Keos because it is one of my new favorites
