Great Read!
Could you have sex with a fugitive let alone fall in love with one. Well enter the world of Audra Chandler, while waiting for her so called boyfriend Daryl at a local bar she hears of the infamous "turnpike killer". Not really scared of the idea of a fugitive on the lose she she heads home after finding out that Daryl will not be joining her. Upon entering her home she is approached by whom she at first assumes is Daryl until she feels the gun pressed against her side.Dean Tyson is on the run after shoot two police officers after being pulled over and verbally assaulted by one of the officer. the shoot out never would of have had Dean been in his right stated of mind but after finding out that his 7 year old daughter was being molested by her mother's new husband all common sense and logic went out the window. After ditching his car and running around aimlessly he needs a place to rest and wrap his mind around everything that as happened in the last couple of hours. He sees Audra entering her apartment and their story begins.This is a modern day love story and Trista did a phenomenal job of bring the heat. Audra and Deans sexually attraction basically leaps of the pages. Ms Russell tells a drama filled story of forbidden love. How far would you go for the one you love? I gave this book five stars I was captivated from beginning to end and loved every minute of it.Favorite Character(s) DeanLeast Favorite Character(s) DomWhat did you like about the book?

LOVED IT!!!!
So after a VERY long wait..I finally came home to BEDROOM BULLY in my mailbox. From beginning to end I was captivated with the story of Audra and Dean. I LOVED the plot, and I expecially LOVED the very vivid love scenes in the book. I found myself rooting for Dean and hoping that somehow he could overcome all of the things he had going on and be able to be with Audra the right way. When I read fiction books, I LOVE how some are able to transcend the real world and bring some of our wildest, craziest fantasies that we sometimes secretly wish we could do, to print. Trista is a master of creating those stories that makes those fantasies come alive in our head. I have been a fan of Trista's since her first book, and she ALWAYS AMAZES me with her work. I LOVED the book and I CAN'T WAIT to see what Trista has in store for us next time :-)

"A SEXY, SEXY READ!!"
This is the first book I have read by Trista Russell and it was a pretty good read.[NO SPOILER ALERT!! READING THIS REVIEW WILL NOT SPOIL THE BOOK FOR FUTURE READERS!!]Trista did an excellent job at painting pictures of the characters for her readers. I was able to get a good visual of the characters as I read along. As an avid book reader, I understand that is not always easy to do. The author also does an excellent job at keeping the attention of the reader. The plot was interesting. Although it was a bit 'out there' it was not beyond belief. As I read along, I thought to myself, "this COULD happen." That made a difference for me. The sex scenes had me exhaling and saying, "oh my!" The rationale of Dean Tyson was reasonable, considering why he was on a rampage, but the author did go a bit far with the racist cop.RECOMMENDATION: If you like sexy, erotic suspense, then GET THE BOOK!!! Russell handles her own in the 'arousing sex scene' department. This book will have you wishing a 'turnpike killer' would greet you at your door....OMG!!! Without a doubt, it was a page turner. I read the book in a day, and found myself having to harnace my eyes' desire to jump over to the next page before I actually read to it. That is a huge compliment to any author.On the flip side, there is a reason why I am only able to give this title 4 stars. Although it was a good read, the storyline was a tad bit far-stretched. At times, I was concerned that it would become too unrealistic, but Russell managed to keep me grounded. The end of the book began to lose me a bit. The main character, Dean Tyson, began to do things that were contradictory to the picture Russell had been painting of the character for the entire book. It was a bit confusing. It was almost like Russell ran out of steam or was getting pushed by the publisher to finish the title. The end left much to be desired.I try to make it a habit for read others' reviews on a title, to help me take a definitive stance in my own review of the title. I am happy that I read this book, and I am excited about reading more of her works. After reading the other reviews, "Fly On The Wall" looks like it needs to be my next read. Keep a look out...reviews will be coming for that title, as well.COMMENDABLE JOB TRISTA...4 STARS FROM ME!![And Trista-Girl, thank you for making Dean out to be built like an "real man" because I hope most of us know, most men are not equipped with the tools of a 'perfect looking stripper'. And in most cases, big is not best. The "just right" and realistic size of Dean Tyson is just what we need...realistic and "just right!"]"BlessedBookCritic"

WOW!
I was new to Trista Russell's work & read this at the suggestion of a male friend. It was a great story from beginning to end! The first page made me laugh out loud & I was hooked!! While the storyline might have been somewhat far fetched, Trista made it work & developed a scenario that drew me in until the last page. My library had a wait list too long for me to wait & I'm so glad I ordered my own, now I'm going to donate it to them so others can read it!

A page turner!
This is my second time reading this book. I don't normally go back and read a book. I thoroughly enjoyed it the first time around 9 years ago. What started as a hostile situation turned into true love and romance. Kudos Trista 👏👏
I**O
Once again, forbidden passion!
I enjoyed this book, just as I've enjoyed every book that Trista has written! I don't think she could ever write a bad book! "Bedroom Bully" had a little bit of everything in it; it was suspenseful, had a forbidden love story plot, had drama, intrigue...you name it. Couldn't put it down; and didn't want it to end. Loved the passion these 2 had; Waiting on pins and needles for the next one, Trista, Great job!

My thoughts
I loved how Audra fell in love the person dean was and not the person the media painted him to be disputed the situation. I would have loved to know what happens to her after she subdued by the cost guard. Also what happened with her mother and Deans daughter destiny.

Gripping stuff! Definitely worth reading but has it's highs and lows. Not quite as good as Fly On The Wall.
This book was an extremely enjoyable read and even though it had its faults (which I'll explain) it was hard to put down and one of the better erotic romances I have read so that's why it has the 5 stars. The start of the book was fantastic - I loved the storyline and how it unfolded, I loved the characters and that first sex scene between the characters was SIZZLING!!! It couldn't have got much hotter and is worth reading for that alone to be honest. Anyway, as I say the story was great and everything until about 110 pages (half-way(ish)) in and then it seemed to lose it's way big time. Fair enough, it is fiction so you have to go along with it a bit and let certain things pass you by but at this point it was just ridiculous and too far-fetched in the way they got from situation A to situation B. What happened and the way she told how they got from situation A to B didn't seem to match the characters she had developed. That was my main gripe to be honest as it kind of let the story down for a little while there.Thankfully it did pick up again and she managed to get it back on track so that once again you were hooked. I do love my erotica and after such a great start in the steamy stakes it seemed to die off a bit in that department. I was quite engrossed in the story so it didn't matter that the erotica had dwindled. There was some yes but the quality wasn't as good as at the start of the book or as good as it was in Fly on the Wall (Urban Renaissance) . The dialogue and the saucy bits just got kind of repetitve when she dropped them in and the dialogue between the characters was a bit OTT and cheesy. Kind of cringeworthy sometimes actually and I just didn't buy into it. In spite of this I have to say it is still one of the better erotic romances I have read and I did enjoy it a hell of a lot. It is certainly one of those books that once you pick it up it is hard to put down and you are at it for a few hours and pick it up any chance you get. Even if only for 5 minutes I was there getting stuck into it again. That it definitely a sign of a really good book so I suggest you buy it :-)P.S One thing I kept thinking when I was reading was....why is it called Bedroom Bully?? When I bought it I thought there literally would be a lot of playful bullying in the bedroom etc but this is not the case in my opinion. There is a slight reference to "bedroom bully" but I think it was a bit of a weak attempt to link into the title really. It wasn't really important to me but thought I'd add it on here if you are buying the book expecting it to be the case. Happy reading! Fly on the Wall (Urban Renaissance)
