"I don't even read the synopsis when a Julie Richman book comes out, I just click...FAST!" ~ Vi Keeland, NY Times & USA Today Bestselling Author
People think I'm a douche.
And maybe I am.
I use most people.
It's what I know.
But if I love you,
I'd die for you.
I just don't know that I'm worth loving.
Handsome, privileged bad boy Zac Moore has always played by his own rules - at school, in business, with women. He's rewritten the rules to suit his own needs and his needs are all that matter.
Serious and focused family friend Liliana Castillo has one goal. Leave the pre-Med program at Yale to help people in developing nations.
As their paths cross and uncross, a tale of love, agony, betrayal and growth is woven, transforming two people who've hidden from relationships and love.
(This is a stand-alone novel. No cliffy. Characters appear in the Needing Moore Series. This can be read prior, but for the most enjoyable reading experience, read after the Needing Moore Series).
Bad Son Rising edition by Julie A Richman Literature Fiction eBooks
Bad Son Rising was the first spinoff from the Needing Moore series by Julie Richman. It was told from a single POV, Zac's. Zac was the son and stepson to Schooner and Mia Moore. I knew I would love Zac's story and Richman didn't disappoint!When we met Zac, he was an entitled punk. He was the exact image of Schooner physically but socially and psychologically, he aligned with his mother. He was selfish, rude and showed zero respect for others, especially women. Near the end of the Needing Moore series we were beginning to see traces of a redeemable Zac.
Fast forward to the opening of Bad Son Rising, Zac was still an entitled punk but we began to see who he was to his core for his friends and family. He learned at an early age to have a small circle of close friends, those who earned his trust. And for those, he was loyal, protective, and selfless. We also learned that he was incredibly smart and innovative.
Bad Son Rising focused on Zac's journey to manhood. He met Liliana Castillo and his world turned on its axis. Their dads were friends and business partners and the kids met at Schooner and Mia's wedding. Liliana was the beautiful, shy, nerdy do gooder that had a path set for med school where she wanted to use it to help those in developing countries. It was a few years until they met up again but he never forgot the dark haired exotic beauty that made him feel something for the first time in....well, forever.
Richman took us through some really cool plots to get Zac and Liliana together. She also began unraveling the layers to Zac where we learned the reasons behind his attitude and shenanigans. It wasn't an easy ride and it was an emotional and heartbreaking story at times, but it was thoroughly enjoyable. It was also well written and well developed with only a few editing errors.
True to Richman's style, we were blessed with a strong and colorful cast of supporting characters that added depth and dimension to the storyline. Not only were we gifted with our past favorites from earlier books, but we were introduced to new ones as well. Hopefully we see more from them in the future.
The ending was a HFN with a promise of forever, so I'm curious if we'll get a follow up book. I would have preferred a longer epilogue that filled in some details, because I really don't want to see anymore heartbreak that would most likely come from a follow up book. Maybe a short and sweet novella or a continuation within Zac's sister, Holly's story, will be in store for us.
Bad Son Rising can be read as a standalone; however, I recommend reading the Needing Moore series first to get the back story. Either way, it was thoroughly entertaining, enjoyable and an emotional roller coaster. I can't wait to see where Richman takes us next with Holly in Moore Than A Feeling.

Bad Son Rising edition by Julie A Richman Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
After reading the Needing Moore series and being completely satisfied with how it ended, I honestly wasn't sure if I wanted or needed anymore (no pun intended!). But I must tell you that Bad Son Rising was simply wonderful and I am so glad the author decided to give us Zac's story.
This isn't just the typical bad boy meets good girl story where you know they will end up together but he'll do something to mess it up and she'll be the doormat to help make it all better.
On the contrary. This is the well written story of two people who belong together and will fight any and all demons that try to stand in their way. Yes, this is Zac Moore, 'bad' son of Schooner, who has managed to damage much of his young life with excess and bravado. But he has redeemed himself (this is where you need to have read the Needing Moore series to fully understand) and now the only thing missing from his priviledged life is someone to love him and for him to love back.
His has that huge capability to love and it's only in the last few years of his life that he and others have realized that he can be there for someone. He can put others first. And Liliana Castillo is that someone he wants to protect, the one he wants to hold and the one he ultimately wants to love forever.
Oh my. Julie Richman has given us a book that shows how one man's journey to both become a better person and to learn how to love can truly be attained. Zac Moore's path to happiness was never intended to be an easy one. But through the sheer determination and will and the love of one special girl, anything is possible.
What I enjoyed and what I always enjoy about the author's work is her attention to detail. Every scene from Cambridge to the Congo were so real. I love that we get to experience places right along with her characters, enjoying the view just as much as they do.
And what is always at the heart of this expanding series is family. And friends. And if you are lucky enough to have loving relationships in your life, the world truly is your oyster. It took Zac Moore some years to figure that out. But to see him finally have that deep appreciation made me smile.
This is a wonderful book that I couldn't put down. Julie Richman is a fine author who writes incredible stories that continue to warm my heart. She is always respectful to both her characters and to her readers. She doesn't humiliate or bully. She writes from her soul and we are so lucky to be privy to her talent.
A huge 5 stars. You will not be disappointed!!
I really should just cut and past my reviews for Julie Richman. She's an amazing author and I can't say enough about how much I genuinely love her work.
I worried that this may be the book that let me down. There was no way Julie could convince me that Zac was someone I would care about the way I adore the rest of his family. Darned if she didn't do it, though. Once again, Julie created a character that has depth, dimension and demands empathy. Zac had a lot of growing up to do; a lot of learning about himself and people he cared about. He needed to learn how to understand and respect people and care about someone outside of himself. See? He's a brat when you first meet him! You don't WANT to like him. But in the end you do. Because he's his father's son.
While this is technically a stand alone, please start from the beginning and read the entire Moore story in order. Don't skip anything. There are hundreds of layers to this group of people and you'll want to know them all. No one writes family drama like Julie Richman. I can't recommend her books enough.
