Beautiful Disaster by Jamie McGuire

5.0

Whew, I can relax! That was an emotional roller coaster from start to finish. Abby, and her best friend America have moved half way across the country to start their first year in college, and a new life for Abby. Travis Maddox is a man-whore, he fights at night to pay his bills, and tuition. He is famous for his one night stands, and never takes a phone number. When America starts dating Shepley, Travis roommate, and cousin it is inevitable that they meet. Travis is dumbfounded that Abby is immune to his charms. She refuses to be another of his flock of women. They quickly become good friends,but Abby is determined to start over, live a different life, and she won't let Travis in. During one of the fights, Travis claims that he only lets his opponents get a hit in for show. They make a small bet, if Abby wins Travis has to abstain from sex for a month. If Travis wins, Abby agrees to spend the next month with Travis.

****************************Spoilers********************************** Abby starts dating Parker, while doing her best to conceal her growing attraction to Travis. Parker is a schmuck, and everything that Travis isn't. He is sophisticated, wealthy, and on the ideal career path to becoming a doctor. Travis is the hot, funny, and even intelligent bad boy. Eventually she, and Travis give in, and decide to be a couple, FINALLY! Their relationship is all about extremes. Extreme highs, and extreme lows, that leaves even the reader drained! Their relationship is on again, off again, but of course it all works out in the end, and the book was freakin awesome!
