You’ve met Rule, Jet, Rome, and now Nash! But there’s a new boy in town, along with a new series, by Jay Crownover. Better When He’s Bad (Welcome to the Point #1) is a new adult novel scheduled for publication on June 17, 2014 by William Morrow, an imprint of HarperCollins Publishing.
Welcome to the Point
There’s a difference between a bad boy and a boy who’s bad . . . meet Shane Baxter.
Sexy,
dark, and dangerous, Bax isn’t just from the wrong side of the tracks,
he is the wrong side of the tracks. A criminal, a thug, and a brawler,
he’s the master of bad choices, until one such choice landed him in
prison for five years. Now Bax is out and looking for answers, and he
doesn’t care what he has to do or who he has to hurt to get them. But
there’s a new player in the game, and she’s much too innocent, much too
soft…and standing directly in his way.
Dovie Pryce knows all
about living a hard life and the tough choices that come with it. She’s
always tried to be good, tried to help others, and tried not to let the
darkness pull her down. But the streets are fighting back, things have
gone from bad to worse, and the only person who can help her is the
scariest, sexiest, most complicated ex-con The Point has ever produced.
Bax terrifies her, but it doesn’t take Dovie long to realize that some boys are just better when they’re bad.
Damn, right? You can read the first chapter of Better When He's Bad at the end of Nash's book.
“It’s dark and dangerous and set in a fictitious underworld/bad part of town. The men in all of the books are way more along the line of being anti-heros than true leading men. I guess the easiest way to sum them up is by saying the books are all about the choices these characters have to make and the outcomes and results of those decisions. Bax’s book is all about having to make the hard choices and what becomes of him and his lady in doing so. They are super fun, very atmospheric and I think really what writing a bad boy should be like if you’re going to do it :)”
