One punch took him from Hollywood\u2019s Golden Boy to Bad Boy Brody.<\/p>\n

The media didn\u2019t care he was grieving his brother\u2019s death. They descended on him, but to change his reputation, his manager got him a deal.
\nAct in an indie film, one that already had Oscar buzz, and he\u2019d get the movie roles he needed to secure his future.<\/p>\n

He took the deal.<\/p>\n

Yet he wasn\u2019t prepared for the real-life people behind the script.
\nHe wasn\u2019t prepared for the murder the movie was based on.
\nAnd he really wasn\u2019t prepared for her<\/em>, the biggest secret of all.<\/p>\n

She was wild. She was beautiful. She defied gravity.<\/p>\n

But was she the leading role that would tame him?<\/p>\n

Review<\/strong><\/h4>\n

3.75 \u201cbeautiful but wild\u201d stars!<\/p>\n

Brody Asher was an up and coming movie star when his brother is killed. He is harboring a pain he cannot overcome and his life has been spiraling out of control ever since. He knows something in his life needs to change but he never would have imagined taking the lead role in a movie could be just the thing to turn his world around.<\/p>\n

While driving to the movie set, Brody gets a glimpse of a woman on a horse. Something about her is different than what he\u2019d expect to see. She intrigues him immediately and he can\u2019t stop thinking of her. When he sees her again he knows there is something special about her and he won\u2019t stop until he figures it out.<\/p>\n

Morgan, wild and free, enjoys the outdoors and horses. She is innocent, naive, and vulnerable in some ways but so strong in others. She runs with horses, straddling the line between two worlds. She grew up with the herd and they became her family and she rarely exists with humans.<\/p>\n

I always stood at the end of the last fence. It was as if the wild was behind me. The domestic was before me.<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I was as intrigued with Morgan as Brody was. I wanted to understand what she went though, what made her the way she was. It was heartbreaking to find out how her life changed when she was just ten years old.<\/p>\n

Brody was a sweet guy who faced a terrible tragedy that rocked his world. He went off the deep end but I could tell he was still a good guy. He caught Morgan\u2019s eye just as she caught his and I loved when they started exploring their connection.<\/p>\n

I acquired a thirst for him. I wanted more of this touch and somehow, I knew after this first kiss, I would always hunger for him. <\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Brody and Morgan affect each other completely in a way no one has done before. Their relationship progresses rather quickly but the change within them was more gradual as they realized the depth of their love. I loved that Morgan and Brody were honest and straight forward with each other. Their understanding and acceptance was beautiful and though they were from different worlds, they never judged one another. The character growth and acknowledgment of vulnerabilities made them realistic and endearing.<\/p>\n

Something was changing.
\nI didn\u2019t want it to, but I couldn\u2019t stop it.
\nBecause the thing changing was me.<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Bad Boy Brody\u00a0<\/em>was totally different than I expected yet I really enjoyed it. There are twists and turns I didn\u2019t see coming and I liked that there was not a ton of crazy drama stirring up the pot. It was a sweet, emotional, heart-warming story full of growth, love, and understanding with an ending that made me smile.<\/p>\n
