Bad Penny, an all-new romantic comedy standalone from Staci Hart is now LIVE!

Synopsis

Nothing good comes after the third date.

See, date three is the crucial point when things get real, which is exactly why I bounce out the door, twiddling my fingers at whatever poor boy I’ve left behind. Because if I stick around, one of three things will happen: he’ll profess his undying love, he gets weird and stalky, or I’ll go crazy. Like, Sid and Nancy crazy. Like, chase-him-through-the-streets-begging-him-to-love-me crazy.

Seriously, it’s better for everyone this way.

So when I meet Bodie, I figure it’ll be the same as it ever was. It doesn’t matter that he doesn’t put a single string on me. Doesn’t matter that he’s funny and smart and jacked and can play my body like a grand piano. Because even though I’m built for love, love has only carved me up like a Christmas ham.

Resistance is something I can only hang on to for so long, and he has persistence in spades. But my heart isn’t as safe as I want to believe, and neither is his. And the second I ignore my cardinal rule is the second I stand to lose him forever.

Bad Penny by Staci Hart

Review by Theresa Esterline

Stars: 5

This bad penny has met it's match!!

This book is hilarious, frustrating, loving, and challenging all rolled into one. And let's not forget the math jokes... Penny works at Tonic, so you may recognize some of the characters, but you will not miss anything if you haven't read Tonic. And now a bit about the story...

Penny had her heart crushed in high school and has decided relationships are a bad idea. Three dates and she is out of there. Until she meets Bodie again. He had changed so much since high school she didn't recognize him at first. Bodie had a crush on Penny for a long time and now he had a chance with her. He just had to figure a way around this crazy three date rule... Between the math jokes and his easy caring way he's wormed his way in... Now to figure out how to stay!

What's 69+69? My husband didn't get it right either, you'll have to read the book to see!!

Favorite passages:

- Why choose one when you could have them all?

- He walked back in before I could think twice about it, smiling that goddamn smile that made my vagina spell his name in Morse code.

- “I’m like pi — really long and I go on forever.”

- Every second with her was perfect to the point of disbelief. A crush realized. A fantasy in physical form.

- On top of that, I’d broken a nail over that fucker. Worth it.

About the Author

Staci has been a lot of things up to this point in her life -- a graphic designer, an entrepreneur, a seamstress, a clothing and handbag designer, a waitress. Can't forget that. She's also been a mom, with three little girls who are sure to grow up to break a number of hearts. She's been a wife, though she's certainly not the cleanest, or the best cook. She's also super, duper fun at a party, especially if she's been drinking whiskey. From roots in Houston to a seven year stint in Southern California, Staci and her family ended up settling somewhere in between and equally north, in Denver. They are new enough that snow is still magical. When she's not writing, she's reading, sleeping, gaming, or designing graphics.
