Beautiful Bastard by Christina Lauren



An ambitious intern. A perfectionist executive. And a whole lot of name calling. 

Whip-smart, hardworking, and on her way to an MBA, Chloe Mills has only one problem: her boss, Bennett Ryan. He's exacting, blunt, inconsiderate—and completely irresistible. A Beautiful Bastard.

Bennett has returned to Chicago from France to take a vital role in his family's massive media business. He never expected that the assistant who'd been helping him from abroad was the gorgeous, innocently provocative—completely infuriating—creature he now has to see every day. Despite the rumors, he's never been one for a workplace hookup. But Chloe's so tempting he's willing to bend the rules—or outright smash them—if it means he can have her. All over the office. 

As their appetites for one another increase to a breaking point, Bennett and Chloe must decide exactly what they're willing to lose in order to win each other. -The Beautiful Bastard summary on Goodreads.

Sexy! Holy whoa this was a sexy read! That is the first and probably most important thing to say about this book.


I really liked the character. They were strong and funny to watch, as they go back and forth in their verbal showdowns.
Bennett was a strong alpha male, that I sometimes wanted to smack him across the face. I still liked him though and he made for a very interesting male lead.

Chloe, she was sassy and badass. I loved how capable and empowering she was.

The only reason I couldn't give this book 5 keos, is because it was lacking some serious relationship building between the two. It went frome hate to love so fast (with lots of steamy naughty bits in-between) but I would have liked to see them actually bond over something other than sex. It was still an amazing book and I will finish the series.
