Best friends Tracie and Jonny meet for coffee each Sunday night to discuss their forlorn love lives: Tracie loves boys with an affinity for leather jackets and poetry-classic bad boys who seem too good to be true (and usually are); Jonny foolishly falls for girls who never like him "in that way ...until Jonny convinces Tracie to teach him some tricks of the trade. After a wardrobe makeover, learning to return from a dinner date with another phone number scrawled on his hand, scope for women at the airport baggage claim, and always carry a motorcycle helmet (even though he doesn't ride a motorcycle), Jonny quickly becomes a successful heartbreaker. And Tracie discovers that she just might be head-over-heels in love with her best friend. But there are more than a few loose ends: Tracie's current bad boy has at last decided he wants to settle down, her girlfriend has the hots for Jonny, and Jonny can't understand why Tracie never liked him for who he was before the leather. With her inimitable wit, Olivia Goldsmith, bestselling author of The First Wives Club, delivers a smart, laugh-out-loud tale of modern romance sure to keep readers everywhere in stitches.Praise for Olivia Goldsmith's latest novel Young Wives:"Wickedly funny female bonding."-People"Goldsmith hits the ground running and doesn't let up until the final screw is turned."-USA Today

1.0 Bad Boy
I loved The First Wives Club. Read a number of Olivia's subsequent novels, none of which captured what she had in that first book. Bad Boy was just not good - annoying heroine, put-on hero who becomes an asshole, then smarts up in time for the HEA. Disappointing.

2.0
So Tracie not only falls for "bad boys" but thinks it is good to teach other, fairly nice, men to behave in a douchbaggy manner? This does not cause me to sympathize with her romantic woes.
