About this ebook

The star of the E! hit shows The Girls Next Door and Kendra opens up about life, love, and living with Hugh Hefner in this New York Times–bestselling memoir.

Kendra Wilkinson wasn’t always the quintessential girl next door. Before she was a reality television superstar, Hugh Hefner’s girlfriend, or one of the most popular Playboy cover models ever, she was an athletic tomboy who grew into a rebellious teenager with a serious drug habit. She quit cold turkey and beat the odds to graduate from a high school. Then, an out-of-the-blue phone call from Hugh Hefner changed everything.

Kendra dishes candidly about life in the Playboy Mansion: the sex, the parties, the show, and even her relationships with her Girls Next Door costars—Hef, Holly, and Bridget. She tells the true story about how she and NFL star Hank Baskett met and built a relationship in secret and reflects on the slew of unexpected changes that have brought her sliding into home from Playboy party girl to wife and mother with a blooming Hollywood career. If you think you’ve seen all of Kendra, think again. She’s only warming up. . . .

Ratings and reviews

I was right there when Kendra attended her Encinitas school. She has some messed up recall. Not the same reality I experiencee. Aren't memoirs supposed to be non-fiction? After reading that bit I'm not really interested in any more of what she has to say. But then, I'll bet she doesn't really care much about what I have to say. She's probably too busy cashing royalty checks off her memoir.

It was actually so good & juicy that I couldn't put it down. It takes me forever to get into some stories & even longer to get through & finish one..this is a "wow I can't belive I finished that so quick, I want more!" Cant put down book.. & if you like or love her, its even better because its even like hearing the story from her mouth with her personality & visualization. Loved it!

Not a skilled writer, doesn't really paint a good picture. The way she writes is almost passive aggressive, easy to see through her apparent "appreciation" of Holly & Kendra. Uninteresting, slightly boring & not worth the read.
