I love Chole.
She is my spirit animal.

She's sassy AND she has a backbone,
Which is really hard to find these days.

So 5 Stars because I'm impressed and in love.

'Beautiful Bastard' felt like a true enemies to lovers story. These two evenly-matched characters really don't like each other. Even with their bodies pulling them together, their hearts and minds are still screaming to abort the mission. I enjoyed this steamy romcom.

I liked it a lot. I’m going to to continue the series. I love Chloe cause she’s feisty and holds her own. This story has the good steamy scenes and the attitude was just right.

I mean, first, you have to get past the fact that a boss touches his intern without consent. She wants him, but it’s not ok. 

Once you accept that, it’s fine! Hot sex and a LOT of it—these two are like rabbits—but CLo still manage to craft a decent story and character arc around all the humping.

This was a very spicy book with a workplace romance. Emphasis more on the spice than the plot. 

I definitely prefer Christina Lauren’s less erotic books. But that didn’t stop me from reading this one.

Ok, look. I know this book is ridiculous. The dialogue is meh. The actions over the top. But I don’t care. The smut where he is just out of control and into it and half begging and hating himself for it is just
