Review: Bad Girls Don't Marry Marines

This cover is FABULOUS! !
Bad girls finally have their day in Codi Gary's newest sexy, fun contemporary romance from the town of Rock Canyon.

Back in her hometown of Rock Canyon, Val just wants to bury her head and wait for the scandal to pass. But when she suddenly finds herself at a singles weekend face-to-face with former flame Justin Silverton, hiding from her heart- and the sexy Marine, won't be that simple.

Is just to good to let go...
Its been ten years since Justin kissed Val, but he still remembers the way they just seemed to...fit. Since then he's served his country and helped his father keep their ranch intact, but he never forgot Val or her wild ways.. So when a twist of fate brings him the chance to chase her across the state lines and spend a weekend winning her heart, Justin's all in. Because when he sees something he wants, he fights for it. And he's ready for fight for the right to call this bad girl his one and only! 

REVIEW: 
Add this book to your Goodreads account!
Bad Girls Don't Marry Marines is book #3 in author Codi Gary's Rock Canyon series. This is a stand alone contemporary read that was enjoyable and bright. I kind of wanted Valerie to be a little more... bad. I actually liked her a little more than I expected to initially from the title. I empathized with her and felt frustration in the way she was treated by those around her. Justin is the hero that never gives up. This guy has the patience of a saint and no matter how many times Val tries to pretend she's not interested he doesn't give up.  In the words of Benjamin Franklin- "Energy and persistence conquer all things."

Bad Girls Don't Marry Marines is well written and will definitely appeal to fans of a traditional contemporary romance. I think this series if could potentially go head to head with Susan Mallery's Fools Gold series. Rock Canyon has a unique plethora of residents that help give the story that sense of community that makes for a good series set in a small town.

I became a Codi Gary fan after reading the first book in this series, Things Good Girls Don't Do and even more a fan after reading Good Girls Don't Date Rock stars. She is a relatively new author for me, but the start to this series has earned it a spot on my bookcase.  I can't wait to see what else she has in store for Rock Canyon.
