“Didn’t anyone ever tell you what happens to BAD girls? Well… let Pretty Boy show you.”
Agent Christopher Gibson has everything a man in his position could want. A successful career as one of the FBI’s most credited undercover field agents, with no personal ties to hold him back. He tried that once, it didn’t go over too well.
Jessica Leary is on her way to the top, working on her father’s Senate re-election campaign. She has the job she wants- the opportunity to prove herself to both the political elite and her father.
What could these two people from very different worlds ever have in common? Nothing.
Nothing other than a hot, sexy, torrid love affair that was left in the past- torn apart by the different directions their lives were headed.
Now, months later, Jess finds herself in a perilous position. The past that once brought “Pretty Boy” Chris Gibson into her life has now come back to haunt her, threatening everything that she’s worked for.
When trouble comes knocking on your door, what’s a girl to do? Why, call your bad-ass, sexy-as-sin, FBI agent of an ex-boyfriend to do what he does best… take down the bad guys and anyone else that stands in his way, because when Pretty Boy sets his sights on a target, nothing distracts him. But, why is it that this time is different?
Being close to Jess again, seeing first-hand what he’s given up is just enough to throw everything off course, as Jess seems to be the perfect mix of good AND bad girl.
Didn’t anyone ever tell you what happens to BAD girls? Well… let Pretty Boy show you in book one of the brand new BADGE BOYS series of stand alone novels.

Reviews by the TaSTy LaDies:
This is Agent Chris Gibson (Pretty Boy) and Jess Leary’s story. As in most of my reviews I don’t like to repeat the synopsis because the author usually gives you a pretty good one! I know it isn’t listed on Goodreads but, it will be and the Synopsis is on Amazon.
I continue to look forward to reading more by Tara and since this is the first book in the series I know I will be reading more.
I was gifted a copy of Pretty Boy for an honest review and I give it 4.0 stars and look forward to more. Nikki K’s Review: 3.5 Stars Pretty Boy FBI agent Chris Gibson and Jessica Leary are ex-lovers brought together to find out who is blackmailing her father in an attempt to bring down his senate reflection campaign. Try though they might, they can not keep their past feelings from coming back to life. The problem is, the reasons the broke up are still there. Is their love and desire enough, this time? Can he put her first and be the man she needs him to be? Will she accept his life and allow him back into hers? Only one way to find out…read the book!
Pretty Boy is a tale of love and intrigue that starts off Tara Oakes new Badge Boys series. For me, this book was a bit flat. While the storyline is compelling, it did not captivate me. Tara’s writing is strong, but I did not feel invested in the characters. This is only my opinion and by no means am I suggesting that others not read the book. I’m simply offering my feel.
If you are a fan of Tara Oakes, or if you enjoy books with a steamy sexy side, definitely read this book. Tara does not disappoint when it comes to the heat between the sheets.
I have struggled with choosing my rating, but I have to give this book 3.5 stars.
I was given a complimentary copy of this book for an honest review. Lita T’s Review: 4.0 Stars Pretty Boy (Badge Boys, #1) By Tara Oakes is Jess a young lady who is working on her father’s reelection campaign when he is being blackmailed. She calls in her ex boyfriend who just so happens to be an FBI agent. Agent Christopher Gibson is serious about his job in fact it is his job which caused the breakup of his relationship with Jess even though he still has feelings for her. While trying to discover who is the one who sent the explicit video of Jess stripping has not only brought up their old feeling they have for each other but has them questioning why they really separated in the first place. It was Jess’s help as pretending to be a stripper which was the catalyst to Chris’s rise in the bureau. This book is the start of the Badge Boy series and is an off shoot of the Kingsmen MC series. What Jess and Chris go through to find out who what and why behind the blackmail is a really good story. A cute quick read. I was given a copy of this book for an honest review. I give this book 4 stars
