Bad Reputation: A Second Chance Billionaire Royal Romance

For one night, Hutton Everest and Ally Edwards were nothing more than a man and a woman who were sexually attracted to one another and gave into that desire; they didn’t worry about their future…they didn’t worry about their responsibilities…they didn’t worry about their reputations - all they cared about was getting lost in the sexual haze that sparked between them as soon as their paths crossed.But Ally’s life’s path has already been written due to her birthright, which means that the wild and reckless behavior she gave into with Hutton can’t last forever; in fact, it’s simply a series of fleeting moments in her life because as soon as she returns home, she must commit herself to leading by example, to shedding any bad behavior tendencies in order to fulfill her royal responsibilities, living for the good of the crown and the good of her people.Too bad this American bad boy has never been good at following the rules and the only person whose opinion matters to him is Ally herself, which means that if there’s a chance that they can continue exploring what’s between them, despite the obstacles, despite the protocols, despite what’s ‘proper’ in the eyes of her people, he’s all in and ready to be Ally’s American Prince Charming - one who’s not afraid to fight dirty to reclaim his queen.Bad Reputation is an angsty, steamy, and twisty modern-day royal fairy tale - one that will make readers question how anything can work between Ally and Hutton due to the amount of obstacles that these two must contend with because one of them is a royal and the other is only a commoner.Ally’s royal lineage and her soon-to-be position as Queen are both things that Hutton will have to work around and if these two hope to figure out a way to be together, Hutton’s going to need to use every move in his arsenal and every bit of his stubbornness as well as his deep feelings for Ally in order to fight against a nation’s history and its customs, which is easier said than done.I would so live the life of a bad girl in order to have Hutton Everest because his confidence, his personality, and his drive to have everything he’s ever wanted make him one handsome alpha male, but what makes him even better is the fact that he is more than willing to bend the knee for his queen, which, in my opinion, makes him an ideal partner and confidant.And regardless of the ways in which Ally’s parents look to thwart any connection between Ally and Hutton, the heart wants what the heart wants and it has nothing to do with status, with pedigree, or with what’s proper; it deals with two hearts and two bodies that call to one another in deep and meaningful ways, proving that rules just might have to be broken.4.5 Poison Apples

BAD REPUTATION is a standalone modern day fairy tale. They meet at a Halloween party. She is dressed as a poor Cinderella in a plain brown dress. He wasn't dressed-up as a character, but somehow she knew fate had brought a Prince Charming. “What's your name?” He asked. “Ally.” She said. “That is a beautiful name.” Said he. “Thank you. What's your name?” “I'm Hutton. Hutton Everest.” Some might call it destiny, complete with a fake shoe, but her flat shoe is dropped from her foot, and she points her toes. They were both surprised they were really doing this. Acting out a fairy tale as if it was real in the middle of a bar.It was more than a one-night for Hutton Everest and Ally Edwards.

Destiny! But their time together might not end that night at midnight, but there is an expiration date to their 'perfect' time together. There are secrets being kept. And even though Ally thinks Hutton is too perfect to be real, she will be gone before the sun rises on their last wonderful night together.Hutton is the real deal as Prince Charming.

Hutton Everest, charmer, bad boy, and player, but oh my he could charm me any day.He's in a non defined type of relationship with a girl called Aly, and he knows he feels so much more for her than he maybe should. Just when he feels the time is right to make their relationship into more and permanent, his fairy tale ends when she leaves with no explanations and dashing all hopes of a possible future. Of course he eventually find out the reason and jumps at the chance to confront her again.Aly knows Hutton is the love of her life,and is devastated to leave, but she has commitments and a life beyond her control. This couple melted my heart, they really were the modern day fairy tale and found the kind of love we all want, but as is in real life, reality always comes to kick our backsides. With everything against them, we are privvy to their fight for love against the odds.Loved it!! We all need a fairy tale ending sometimes !!!

Hutton = SinAlly = PurityTogether they are explosive!I've never really been one for stories about royalty. However, this one is about Hutton Everest, so enough said!Hutton and Ally were sweet, hot and and oh so swoon worthy. Things with Ally are not as clear cut as they might seem in the beginning, but her true identity is eventually revealed. It is when this happened that I wanted to step in and just hug Hutton. The Everest men may be all alpha, however when it comes to getting their hearts broken, they don't shy away from showing how they feel.Hutton is like a little kid when he gets the opportunity to get his girl. This is the start of his battle for his princess.So many twists and turns kept me intrigued and turning the pages long into the night. Some I guessed, others, not so much. In fact I was blindsided at one point!I love the Everest brothers and I can't wait to start Bennet's book now.

Ally is one bad ass, feisty, sweet, brave, smart and funny princess! I love that she wasn’t just the typical spoiled girl with no thoughts of her own. Her strong feelings about changing the old fashioned rules to make not only her country but woman in general better off was inspiring and showed her true character. Hutton Everest was absolutely swoon worthy, sweet, romantic, tender, respectful and thoughtful not to mention sexy as hell! 😍😂 ugh he was just perfect and every thing I want in a man 😉 This story was so refreshing and unique and I liked that that they had woman ruling instead of men, if only they took that advice in real life lol It was such a beautiful, slightly angsty, second chance love story with a few unexpected twists thrown in, that captured my interest from page one and kept me wanting more! Another fantastic book by one of my favourite authors.

I’ve always enjoyed S.L. Scott’s books but this one is extra special with a fairytale feel. I hope this is the start of a new series because we want more. This story is about Hutton and Ally. A very attractive and loveable couple. Hutton is a H that makes your heart me;t. He has so many wonderful attributes. Ally is a good match and once she finally trusts Hutton she shares her secret and he doesn’t let her down. These two characters jump out of the page - they are very moving. Bad Reputation is one book you don’t want to miss out on. I voluntarily received an arc copy of this book and purchased a copy as well.

This book 😍💕 It’s like everything I’ve been waiting for. I totally fell in love with Hutton and Ally.When I started reading Bad Reputation I never expected this. The whole storyline is just unique and unpredictable. The more I read the more I fell in love with Hutton and Ally. Their story is just heartbreakingly beautiful. Not a lot of royal romances can hold my attention like this one. It is just extraordinary.I loved the connection between Hutton and Ally and their love for each other. They held my heart in their hands from the first page.All my love and respect to S.L. Scott for writing such a beautiful masterpiece.
