Bring in the hoses ladies cause Ms. Tabke is burning up the pages with this one.
Vaden and Olivia's chemistry is off the charts HOT. The opening scene proves this and it doesn't let up.
Olivia is a widow who is still mourning the loss of her husband. She has been a "good girl" and has always followed the rules. Until she meets Vaden. He is a "bad boy" and just what Olivia needs but the problem is Vaden won't give all of himself to her. He has no problem giving his body but his heart is a whole ot...more

I think I'm not the only when I say that a fantasy of a hot cop pulling you over and then having his wicked way with you sounds VERRA NICE! No? Is it just me?
Well, that's how this story starts out, which caught me a bit off guard and wondering if I should be liking it or thinking this guy was completely insane! Of course they were role playing, even though he is a real cop, he's been sort of, not dating but more of a booty call.

This is more like it! This short sweet read from Ms. Tabke should actually receive a 3.5 star. The sex was hot for me because it was with a cop, duh! Pulled over by a cop to then be screwed silly? Well, I have to say, that must be a fantasy many women have. And if they deny it, they are L.Y.I.N.G. Since Ms. Tabke's husband is a cop, it makes me wonder.
This was a fun quick read that made me reach for a toy.

Sensuality: 4 out of 5
Kink: cop fantasy, slight bdsm
Love Karin Tabke and bought this right away. It was a short read and started off with a sizzling interlude! Loved Vaden's dominance and Olivia wanting to grow. However this story left a lot of questions unanswered. Not sure if this will be continued in another book. I would have given it a higher score if the questions about who broke in and if their relationship would be permanent. The story had great love scenes and sure wished the book had b...more

My first Tabke book. I love it! This book got me changing undies at ch1. Haaawt! But it was short and the ending was abrupt.
I am taking it for what it is though, a very good short erotic story.

Bad to the Bone is a novella that was a sexy and sweet read. I totally enjoyed it. Then again, whats not to like about a sexy bad boy fighting his love for a women.

In the mood for hot romance.
A short, spicy, hot-cop, sexy read -- Karin Tabke doesn't disappoint. With less than 40 pages, Ms. Tabke takes the story full course and delivers two dynamic characters worth caring about. Bravo!
Just okay not great. Used to love Karin Tabke. I think I lost interest in her writing after her first paranormal book. It's has almost ruined reading anything of hers for me regardless of what was written before or after.
