Everybody's talking about the hot new app rating New York's most eligible bachelors. But why focus on Prince Charming when you can read the latest dirt on the lowest-ranked "Bad Bachelors"―NYC's most notorious bad boys.

He says…

If one more person mentions Bad Bachelors to me, someone's gonna get hurt. Who thought this app would be a good idea? Like dating isn't hard enough without being critiqued for every little misstep. My name is Reed McMahon and I'm supposedly a PR whiz and "image fixer," but now I need some help cleaning up my own image.

She says…

When Reed strolls into my workplace offering to help save the struggling library, I'm not buying his story. I'm Darcy Greer, a no-nonsense Brooklynite who knows Reed is exactly the kind of guy to be avoided. I've seen the app, and Bad Bachelor #1 has no place in my life. However, the library does need his help, and this guy needs to make some serious amends, so who am I to stop him? If only he didn't work so hard to find redemption…

"Delightfully fresh. Stefanie London delivers all the feels in this exceptional opposites-attract love story. Bad Bachelor is an absolute must-read."―LAUREN LAYNE, New York Times bestselling author

"Original, witty, and sexy. My #1 romance read of the year!"―JENNIFER BLACKWOOD, USA Today bestselling author

A fun romance!

A fun romance!
I thought that this one was fun. This book has been on my radar since it was first published. The cover redesign grabbed my attention again so I decided to move this book to the top of my tbr pile. Reed and Darcy were great together and I loved the chemistry that they shared. I thought that parts of the book were rather funny and had a really good time with it in the end. I am so glad that I finally got around to giving this book a try.Reed is at the top of the list on the Bad Bachelors app. This is an app where women can rate the men they date and Reed has an abundance of negative reviews. This has had an impact on not only his dating life but his professional life as well. Darcy is a tattooed librarian that almost made it down the aisle a year ago and is having trouble trusting someone again. Both Darcy and Reed have some family issues that they are dealing with which were very relatable. These two were great together. I wanted to see things work out for them and felt like they were meant to be.I listened to the audiobook and thought that Kendall Taylor did a great job with this story. I thought that she portrayed a wide range of emotions through her reading. The character voices that she used in her narration were distinctive and believable. I feel that her narration added to my overall enjoyment of this story.I would definitely recommend this book to others. The opening scene of the book was outstanding and grabbed my attention right away. It was easy to get behind these characters as they made their way to their happily ever after. I wouldn’t hesitate to read more of this author’s work in the future.I received a copy of this book from Sourcebooks Casablanca.

4.0 out of 5 stars So sweet
Reviewed in the United States on May 27, 2022

This was not the usual sweet story... enemies to lovers trope. Yet, I really thought Darcy, the tattooed and pierced introvert librarian was a sweetheart. Reed, the handsome villain turned out to be a sweetheart as well. I'm just not into carefree one night stands in my romantic novels, I really want the romance to build up and them the steaming sex to be inevitable. But, this book has both things happen and in the end, I actually enjoyed it very much. Darcy and Reed are both likable and vulnerable, and the author threw in some fun snarky banter between them. So, 3 1/2 stars was easy, but I bumped it up because I'm a sucker for a guy giving good apologies.

Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2018

This story was perfect, I love the frenemies to lovers storyline and this book was absolute perfection. From the minute Darcy meets Reed she has preconceived notions about him. She did after all read about him being number one on a bad bachelor app, he definitely did not have any good reviews if you thought you wanted a relationship with him. Reed meets Darcy when he shows up at the library she works at and offers to run a fundraiser for her library. Even though they are opposites there was an attraction between the two. But Darcy knew to stay away because of the reviews on that app. The banter between these two was awesome. Just the way they went back and forth you could sense the sexual tension even though they both wanted to deny it. What worked for them is that they didn’t try to change one another or change themselves for the other person. Reed was able to open up to Darcy just a little bit because when she first met him she didn’t fall all over him like he is used to women doing. Darcy treated him like the cocky jerk she thought he was because of the app and because of that she was honest with him and that made him see her differently.
It was nice seeing Darcy’s strained relationship with her mom somewhat mirror Reed’s relationship with his dad. When Reed and Darcy finally got together it was HOT. This book will definitely be a re read for me, I loved everything about this book. My only complaint was that it had to end.

3.0 out of 5 stars Bad Bachelor
Reviewed in the United States on February 29, 2020

Bad Bachelor is the kind of book I hate to stick a rating on. I absolutely loved the main characters, the romance, and Stefanie London’s writing. But the story also had some big drawbacks that kept me from falling in love with the book overall.

Let’s start with the good, shall we? I adored Reed and Darcy. Darcy is a librarian and the black sheep of her family. She’s hardworking and cares so much, which I absolutely loved. She’s also incredibly vulnerable between the contentious relationship with her mother and the way her engagement ended the day before she was supposed to be married. She has walls a mile high, but that’s nothing compared the walls Reed has around his heart. Reed is rich, polished, and a PR whiz. But no one sees the man beneath the glossy exterior…until Darcy. Reed has seriously deep old wounds he doesn’t allow anyone to see and they make him unwilling to open his heart and trust any woman. He’s dedicated to his job and being the best, not because of ego, but because the money allows him to care for his ailing father. Aside from wanting to push people away, Reed’s pretty much the perfect hero. He and Darcy are dynamite together and I loved watching them put together a fundraiser for her library. They’re a perfect match even though on the surface they seem nothing alike. The fact that they outwardly seem so different but inwardly have a lot in common is what makes them such an appealing couple. Their love story is easy to fall into and Ms. London makes it impossible not to root for them.

I adored Darcy and Reed so much that I hate to say anything bad about Bad Bachelor. However…the Bad Bachelors app plot was beyond aggravating. The Bad Bachelors app is – in essence – a Yelp review site of New York City’s bachelors. In a place as big as NYC, the number one “Bad Bachelor” isn’t a predator, criminal, abuser, liar, user, addict, cheater, or even someone who doesn’t tip well. No, it’s – brace yourself for the horror – a man who doesn’t want to commit. It’s necessary to roll with this premise or the entire book falls apart, so I knowingly went into this willing to suspend disbelief. The problem is, the more I saw Reed’s hard work being torn apart, his personal and professional reputation being shredded by this popular app, the more sour the taste in my mouth. The more the popularity of the app grew, the more it was like watching a good person be repeatedly kicked in the face not just by bitter and shallow exes, but workplace rivals and possibly internet trolls. The last bit is not altogether implausible, which makes it all the more depressing.

Bad Bachelor has good characters, an engaging and sexy romance, and a background plot that just left a bad taste in my mouth. Darcy’s two best friends, Remi and Annie, are featured in the next two Bad Bachelors books. I loathed Annie and will likely pass on her story, but I adored Remi and I love Ms. London’s writing so I will definitely be reading the next book in the Bad Bachelors series, Bad Reputation.

4.0 out of 5 stars Bad Bachelors Book #1
Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2020

It's no surprise why I like this author's writing so much and this is proof positive that I do -- I read this series backwards. Not that it makes that much difference since these are standalones, but I "try" to read series like these in order. Unfortunately I read the last one first but it didn't lessen my enjoyment of this first book at all. I loved all the couples in all three books and Darcy and Reed were no exception. The plot centers around the Bad Bachelor's app which is sometimes problematic, but the charming and witty dialogue between Darcy and Reed are what make the story work so well. I voluntarily read and reviewed an ARC for NetGalley.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of my new all-time favourite contemporary romances!

I loved this book! It’s definitely one of my new all-time faves, a designation I only give to books I would want to re-read multiple times.

I read Bad Reputation first by accident (really enjoyed it) and knew I needed to go back and read the first one in the series. Now having read all the books in the series I can unequivocally declare Bad Bachelor my favourite, followed very closely by Bad Reputation.

I loved both Reed and Darcy. They were such a great opposites-attract pairing and it was so enjoyable reading about how they bring out the best in each other.
