shell74 's review for:

Beautiful by Christina Lauren
5.0

The gang’s all together one last time in this fifth full-length–and final–installment of the Beautiful Bastard series. *sob* And Christina Lauren pulled out all the stops for this one. Humor? Check. Heartfelt emotions? Check. Sizzling chemistry and naughty love scenes? Check and double-check!

It’s rather hard to say goodbye to this group of characters after having followed their progression since book one, Beautiful Bastard. Each novel has been a journey all on its own, but these characters were all lovingly woven into each other’s lives, with us getting glimpses of them again and again along the way. This particular installment was a true reunion. Yes, we got to watch Jensen and Pippa fall in love (yay!) but couples Will & Hanna and Niall & Ruby were a huge part of the storyline too.

Original Notes:

So it's the end of the Beautiful Bastard series. *sob* This final full-length novel was everything I hoped it would be, although of course it would be great to see more about this eclectic bunch of friends in the future. Christina Lauren never lets me down with their stories: the humor, the heartfelt emotions, the strong chemistry and naughty love scenes. But what I loved most about this was two things. This was a reunion where we got to catch up with ALL of the couples and our favorite characters. AND there were epilogues for each of them!! (Even George!!) Full review to come...
