Representaion As Books Beautiful Bastard (Beautiful Bastard #1)
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.
Originally only available online as The Office by tby789 — and garnering over 2 million reads on fanfiction sites — Beautiful Bastard has been extensively updated for re-release.

Ahhhhh! I have been waiting for this book for so long! I am so excited!!!My official blurb for this book:"The perfect blend of sex, sass and heart, Beautiful Bastard is a steamy battle of wills that will get your blood pumping!"-- S.C. Stephens, bestselling author of Thoughtless
okay. this was SO different from christina lauren's newer works. the first chapter alone was smuttier than their last 4 books combined. one thing I have come to expect from CL is really great romance and chemistry between characters. I didn't exactly feel that in this. I would say this is more erotic than romantic. which isn't a bad thing. the sex scenes in this were 10/10 and it makes me wish their newer books were more smutty. but other than the sexy bits, i didn't really feel a connection
Well, what to say? The beginning was amazing; we just jumped into the story right away. Really great. But in the middle of the book, it started to be a bit boring, still the same without any change. Anyway, it was still a pleasurable story. If I had to choose, Bennett was better. I'd liked him because he wasn't perfect. He was a bastard. Which is a sort of the point of this story I guess? However, my main problem is that this SCREAMS Twilight fan fiction. Did it start as Twilight fiction or
OK, Where do I start with this one?First, I won't be rating this book. I simply don't know how to do it. It's totally and utterly ridiculous but I still laughed like crazy through most of it The sad part is, those scenes weren't funny I don't know what's worse, the writing or the story. Well, since the story is non-existent, I guess the writing wins The dialogues between them... Oh Lord... I cried actual tears by how much I was laughing XD I'm kind of sorry this was an ARC and I'm not allowed
2.5 - 3 starsPretty standard romance/erotica. But jeez, the idea of all that LaPerla getting ripped every single time annoys the shit out me--especially for sex that doesn't really seem to be worth it.
