This is the reason Stephanie Monroe ran away from small-town America in the first place - this insane sense of buttoned-up propriety that's managed to get her thrown in jail. It's not her fault people can't tell the difference between her haute couture and lady-of-the-evening wear! But now, after several citizen complaints, Stephanie finds herself booked by one of Mayfield's finest...and finest is definitely the word. Everything about Jack Logan, from his strong jaw to the way he wears his holster, is irresistibly appealing. And now, the biggest temptation in town - a man in uniform - is resurrecting Stephanie's longburied, apple-pie good girl...and she needs to do something about it fast...It took a lot of hard work for Sheriff Jack Logan to turn away from his bad boy past and become the voice of authority and integrity in this town. So far, he's managed to keep that devilish wild streak buried beneath his badge and his duty. But the minute he looks into Stephanie's eyes, he knows he's in trouble. The big-city lady fights back with a style he admires, even if he suspects that bad-girl come-hither walk is nothing but an act. More and more, Jack can't decide whether to drag her across the city limits or into his bed. One thing's for sure - the longer she stays in town, the more ready this reformed bad boy is to shed his uniform and show Stephanie a whole new side to serve and protect...

Editorial Reviews
From the Publisher
When it comes to deliciously wicked romance, Susanna Carr wrote the book. In How to be a "Wicked" Woman and "Wicked" Women 101, she enchanted readers with her smart, sexy brand of temptation. Now she brings together two people who have no reason to trust each other – or so they think. But they're about to discover that when it comes to passion, a little confession is good for the soul
About the Author
Susanna Carr was born and raised in a Midwestern town where the gossip moved faster than the car getting you home. Susanna, who was too busy reading about scandal to cause any, dreamt about the far-off places she found in the romance stack of the library. Thanks to her quirky sense of direction, Susanna’s plans of going to the big city led to her a smaller Midwestern college town. Her navigation skills haven’t improved and she is smack dab in yet another small town, this time in the Pacific Northwest region. These days she writes romances that are often set in the far-off Midwest.

4.0 out of 5 stars
amusing chick lit tale,
This review is from: Confessions Of A Wicked Woman (Paperback)
Maysfield Sheriff Jack Logan thought his worse two problem are the imminent flood and living down his reputation as a town bad boy during his wild oats youth. He soon realizes he is way off in his assessment when he pulls Stephanie Monroe out of the creek where she sank her SUV. She is in town seeking her runaway business partner..
Jack takes a soaked Stephanie to the sheriff's office where dressed to the part she pretends to be an L.A bad girl. Jack can see through her fake image to the small girl- sweet woman that Stephanie tries to hide. As the townsfolk complain about Stephanie's outrageousness and Jack is forced to arrest her for indecent behavior that even he as a reformed bad guy knows is nothing, they fall in love, but she fled a hometown that is a clone of Maysfield for the bright city lights. This amusing chick lit tale centers on the premise that Jack was once a bad boy while Stephanie was once a good girl, but both easily sees inside the other to a caring heart. The amusing tale focuses on Jack knowing he should not fall in love with the transient, but does and Stephanie knowing that she should not fall in love with the local yokel but she does. Susanna Carr provides a wickedly hot humorous fun tale. Harriet Klausner

A gem from page one,
By Judy "book reader" (Cincinnati, ohio United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Confessions Of A Wicked Woman (Paperback)
Confessions of a "Wicked" Woman is a charming tale by Susanna Carr.
Sheriff Jack Logan feels in over his head. He has his former bad boy rep to live down and the legend of his father to live up to as sheriff. To top it all off a major flood is coming to his small town of Mayfield. He rescues Stephanie Monroe from a sinking car and all his bad boy ways come screaming back. Stephanie Monroe is only in this small town to get her business partner back to L.A. On her first day in Mayfield she is tossed in jail. Bad enough her mind keeps wandering to the hunky sheriff. She has her life all planned out and living in a small town is not in her day planner. Jack and Stephanie are funny, sweet and oh so hot. They both fight this attraction but lord when they give in it's a scorcher. Susanna Carr writes with such humor and passion in every word. The characters just come alive on the pages. Looking forward to her next book.

Light summer read,
By
This review is from: Confessions Of A Wicked Woman (Paperback)
Stephanie is furious with her business partner/friend Venus. Unfortunately for their business, Venus has decided to extend her vacation in her home town of Mayfield, even if it means flaking on their biggest client yet. On her way to retriving the obstinant Venus, Stephanie is caught in a flash flood. Luckily for Stephanie, she is saved by Sherif Jack Logan. The same can not be said of her clothes.
Unbeknownst to Stephanie, the town of Mayfield has passed a city ordinace restricting the type of clothing people can wear, and after her dunking in the flood, Stephanie doesn't measure up. Miscommunication results in good girl Stephanie being mistakenly classified as a bad girl. Stephanie decides to use this to her advantage to play out her fantasies. The object of her fantasies is Sherif Jack Logan. Sherif Jack Logan is trying to live down his bad-boy reputation and live up to his Dad's reputation, as the former sherif. He knows he should stay away from Stephanie, but she is too much temptation for his wild side to resist. When Stephanie and Jack come together sparks fly! However, their time together is bittersweet because they both think it won't last. He won't leave his hometown, and she will never go back to small town life. How will it all end? Jack and Stephanie both seem to want different thing out of life, but their feelings for each other are undeniable. A plot twist involving Venus makes the ending somewhat unpredictable. I think that this book is a good summer read (or anytime you want something light). There was not as many steamy parts as other books in the Wicked Woman series, but what was there was good (The jail cell scene was definitely worth the read). I don't think I will read this book again, but I'm glad that I did. I recommend it to any fan of ChickLit, especially those who have read and liked Wicked Woman books.
