Fans of the E! smash hit series "The Girls Next Door "fell in love with sporty Playboy beauty Kendra Wilkinson's care- free spirit, infectious laugh, and down-to-earth nature. Now that she's moved out of the world's most famous bachelor pad and into her own delightfully chaotic world on "Kendra "as wife to NFL star Hank Baskett and mother to their newborn son, we've watched her hilarious antics as she adjusts to domestic life. But how much do we really know about the fun-loving star? In this humorous and optimistic, sometimes heartbreaking, but always unfailingly honest memoir, Kendra reveals the highs and lows of her extraordinary journey.
She 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, Kendra was an athletic tomboy whose father walked out on her family when she was a little girl. She grew into a rebellious teenager with a serious drug habit before she quit cold turkey and beat the odds to graduate from a high school that almost didn't give her a second (or third, or fourth) chance.
Following her rocky teenage years, 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 Hank met and built a relationship in secret while she was still Hef's girl- friend and a public face of Playboy. Finally, she reflects on the slew of unexpected changes in the short space of a year 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. . . .
I brought this book after watching the epsiode of Kendra where she meets with the ghost writer for Sliding into Home. I felt compelled to read after seeing Hank react to the explicit content of the book. It goes without saying that I was not disappointed. There will be those who think this book is vulgar and crass but if you brought it, you have an interest in Playboy and so questions like did she sleep with Holly and Bridget? Did she have sex with Hef? Was she a stripper? will all be answer in Kendra's straight talking no nonsense approach. Satisfying read
Great read - really gives you an in depth look into Kendras life how she came to where she is today. Once i started reading i could not put this book down. A definate tell all story
Fantastic book...I couldn't put this book down. I was so amazed at how far Kendra had came and the ongoing support she was given by family and friends throughout her life. I have watched all the Girls Next Door episodes and watched her show on E - Kendra. Just a fascinating book and one that I would absolutely recommend to anyone that would listen. I bought the book and all of my work colleagues have read it too....
