About the Book:

I have a bad reputation

Call me what you want: Bad Boy Next Door. Trouble. That Kid Who Can’t Do Anything Right.

When Willow moves into my neighborhood, nothing should have happened. She’s geeky. Shy. A true wallflower.

Willow is a good girl.

Too good for me.

And how the hell was I supposed to know that she’s related to Loren Hale—yeah, that douchebag celebrity that lives on my street. The same guy I've been pranking by spray painting vulgar words on his mailbox and worse. Much worse.

Don't ask me why I do the things I do.

Don't ask me why it had to be her.

I'm cursed. Simple as that. But here's the thing about people who are cursed—they break everything they touch.

And yet. . .I still want to touch her.

Whatever It Takes is the first book in the Bad Reputation Duet and can be read and enjoyed without reading any of Krista & Becca's other novels.

Angsty Teenage Love? YES PLEASE!-- Willow you are adorable and I loved seeing inside your head. Garrison, you are loved and you deserve to be happy. Getting to see the inter workings of this teenage love story is amazing. You have the angsty “bad boy” and the dorky shy girl. They’re a match made in heaven. I loved seeing Garrison try to relate and learn more about Willow. Seeing Willow mature and come out of her shell was perfection. Thank you Krista & Becca. I loved the little glimpses we got of these two during the other series but it means so much more when you read about them first hand 🤗 cant wait for book 2!

About the book:

I WILL RUIN HER.

You know that old saying “opposites attract” — well, no one ever tells you what happens after the attraction part.

Do opposites stick together forever?

Or do they just self-combust?

And then there’s the third option: someone or something forces them apart.

Look, the third option isn’t happening to us. I will end the bastard who thinks he can keep me from her. I only need to worry about one thing. . .

Epic, soul-crushing self-destruction.

Because I screw up everything I touch.

Even her.

Book 1 was all angsty teen love and book 2 turned into a beautiful adult romance that showed all the struggles Gillow went through to get to their happy place. I loved how realistic this story was. You really get a feel for how Garrison became himself. It was adorable reading him talk/watch/hang with Moffy. Getting to see things that happened to the core 6 through Gillow's eyes was amazing. I don't know how the Ritchie sisters do it but they continue to blow me away with their stories. This book made me want to cry happy & sad tears. I loved the epilogue and getting to see the core 6 and all their children interacting with the Abbey family. Thank you Krista & Becca for the epic love stories, close knit family units, & undying loyalty.
