The second installment of a sexy, whirlwind romance about a modern-day heroine writing historical novels based on her romantic misadventures with the Bad Boy Billionaire.

Being good hasn't exactly worked out well for Jane Sparks. Her ex-boyfriend dumped her for being too predictable, and her fake fiancé, Duke Austen, is counting on her good-girl image to repair his bad-boy reputation. But everything changes with the publication of the historical romance novel she wrote based on her fauxmance with the Bad Boy Billionaire. Suddenly she's notorious, scandalous, and causing lots of trouble.

Duke Austen always admired Jane's poise and perfectly demure behavior … qualities that seemed to have vanished once she helped him land a big investment deal. But now that his company is on the verge of a 20-billion-dollar IPO, the stakes have never been higher—and Jane has never been more shocking, provocative, or wickedly irresistible. She's not at all the woman he bargained for, yet she's the only one he wants.

Duke is determined to woo his girl gone wild. She's determined to keep him guessing. But Jane is discovering that there's nothing so appealing as a billionaire who's mad, bad, and dangerously seductive …

4.0 out of 5 stars Now on to the last novella

In this the 2nd novella of the series " The Bad Boy Billionaire 's Wallflower Series " Jane and Duke are not officially seeing each other anymore. Duke is devoting his time to getting his IPO up and though they hook up a few times, his investors are not happy about his social life being center stage instead of their investment. Not being able to see Duke has left Jane with all the time needed to finish her 2nd novel " Wallflower Gone Wild ". I still love the story and how it develops around the writing of the historical romance series written by Rodale, this series is a very interesting and original use of the other series. I still think that the one novel would have been the logical way to go instead of the 3 novellas

5.0 out of 5 stars Loving the tie between the Novellas and the rest of the Wallflower series!

A great come back after the disappointment of Wallflower Gone Wild. This is why I like Maya Rodale, she makes it fun to read and makes you connect with the characters. I love that she has created a series of 3 novellas to compliment the Wallflowers series. It's great to see the comparisons and how the author in the book draws on her real life experiences to write her historical romance novels.

The only thing I'd say against it were there were a couple of longer than needed passages quoting the actual Wallflower books.

I was disappointed when I read some other reviews of people who didn't seem to get that this novella was part of the larger series and they either read just the three novellas and so they didn't know that they were tie ins. Or they didn't get the tongue-in-cheek part of this story. Yes the author (Maya Rodale) has the main character use her name as the pseudonym she writes the historical novels under. I found it to be quite ingenious and very quirky.

If you like, read, or are reading the Wallflower series please please please read these novellas along with them.

I continue to adore what Ms. Rodale is doing with this series. For those of you who are unaware, the Bad Boys and Wallflowers books are a combination of contemporary and historical romance. The heroine of the Bad Boy-titled books is an aspiring author whose historical romances are published as part of the series as well. It is a unique concept and I am thoroughly enjoying it.

The last time readers saw Jane Sparks and Duke Austen, they had decided to begin a false engagement in order to obtain funding for Duke's newest investment idea by repairing his bad boy reputation. But, like you would expect in a romance novel, both Jane and Duke begin to develop feelings for each other beyond the physical. Jane responds to the confusion she feels by writing her experiences as a historical romance entitled, The Wicked Wallflower. The Bad Boy Billionaire's Girl Gone Wild deals with the aftermath of Jane's self-publication of her historical romance. It quickly becomes a viral sensation and she has now become a scandalous bad girl in her own right. This forces the couple to really look at their "relationship" to decide if it is doing more harm than good especially with rumors flying around that it was all a hoax to begin with.

My favorite part about this book was the fact that Jane got to be the center of attention. The first novella, even though it was written from Jane's point of view, seemed to focus on Duke which was fine with me since he is an intriguing character in his own right. But, I have been really interested in Jane's character and how she is handling such a unique situation. So I was glad to see the focus shift to her and her ambitions. This is a woman who thought she had everything planned out until it all fell apart and now she is finally getting back on her feet in the most fabulous of ways. I loved the transformation and how confident she appeared by the end of the story.

Duke is not as big of a factor in this novella as in the previous one, but his presence was still felt. I liked how Ms. Rodale showed his growth as a character from being obsessed with his career to thinking more about Jane and her place in his life. Readers also have to deal with the fact that Jane's ex-boyfriend, Sam, makes a reappearance and seems to be trying to move back into the picture now that she has become such a phenomenon. I found Sam's historical counterpart in The Wicked Wallflower to be highly irritating and it was funny that those feelings moved on to Sam.

Another part of The Bad Boy Billionaire's Girl Gone Wild that I enjoyed was the mixing of the historical and contemporary. I am huge fan of historical romance so it was a blast to read about Jane's writing process and how she was inspired by her own life. I have read The Wicked Wallflower and I think that helped increase my enjoyment of these scenes since I could easily spot the tidbits that moved from one story to the other. While I don't think reading the historical romances is required to enjoy the Bad Boy books, I highly recommend it!

All in all, I really like where Ms. Rodale is taking this series and how she is developing Jane's romance to mirror the relationships of the Wallflower girls. Jane is really coming in to her own as a character and I love watching that development. The ending was very sweet and is making me want to see what happens next with Duke, Jane, and Sam. And, of course, I can't wait to read Wallflower Gone Wild when it comes out.

Another enjoyable read by Maya Rodale. I'm liking this series and still very much hoping she gets Duke. Sam needs to bow out gracefully. He had his chance n threw it away.

This second installment of Rodale's trio of novellas is both a sexy, satisfying continuation of Jane and Duke's romance and a love letter to New York City. (I never wanted to live in NYC as a young women, but now I sure wish I had.) Jane's confusion over the dreams she's had her whole life, her longing to make something of herself on her own terms, and her attraction to Duke is deftly drawn and I sympathized with her entirely. Duke is one of the sexiest heroes I've read in ages. He's brilliant, comfortable in his own skin, and he wants Jane but he also wants her to pursue her dreams. I adore this couple's romance and I can't wait for BBB #3.
