and BESTSELLER
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 … 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.

Really enjoyed this book. It was funny and so damn sexy. Bennett and Chloe were so amazing together. Their chemistry was off the charts and I loved their love/hate relationship. I loved that Chloe couldn’t resist Bennett and how Bennett lost all self-control when near her. This was a very sexy office romance. The ending wasn’t my favorite and …
An enemies-to-lovers workplace romance with a locomotive’s worth of steam. What’s not to love? Add in a rich, prickly hero and a spunky heroine who talks back and you’ve got the recipe for a great erotic love story.
Chloe wants nothing more than to succeed in school and her career but her sexy boss makes life more than difficult she can’t seem to do anything right for him. He treats her like crap. Being a long time friend of the Ryan family she jumped at the chance to work for their business.
When Bennett came home to work for the family his father thought …
One of my all-time favorite sexy romances. If you haven’t read this one, you really are missing out! It’s an office romance that is sex filled, funny, snarky, and full of raw, real emotion. Bennet and Chloe want to hate each other, but their chemistry is so strong that they are drawn to each other like moths to a flame. As their forbidden …
This book is so freakin’ hot, and is the first in a series that is absolutely amazing! You definitely don’t want to miss out on this one, so be sure to bring it along on your next beach vacation. One of the best things about this book is that our two main characters don’t even like each other very much at first, but the sexual tension between them …
I couldn’t put it down One of the strongest women characters I have met. I became enthralled with her power to do what needed to be done. But she met the grandest partner who knew how to love her and yes lead her his way. The circle of friends leads to a great story and further adventures. I couldn’ t wait till the next book. Can’t say enough …
One of my all-time favorites!
Funny. Listened to this book on CD. Was funny and sexy
I totally enjoyed this book from start to finish, I don’t normally like books that just have sex sex sex but this book was able to have that but also work in a really great story line with all the steamy scenes .
I so love Chloe , shes sassy and when Bennett gives her shit she gives it right back, I loved thier love/hate relationship, it was fun …
Hands down my favorite contemporary romance/rom com writers. You will never go wrong with Christina Lauren, and this is the book that started it all. It’s a must read if you are a fan of this genre and even more if you are just checking it out. I can’t recommend it more highly.
My all time favorite series to date
I re-read the Beautiful Bastard series whenever I feel the need for a guaranteed good read! The characters are entertaining as hell!
I absolutely loved this book!! I cannot wait to read the rest of this series! Definitely one of my go-to books now!
So good
Absolutely lovely. Hot as hell, light and fun. The best recipe. The erotica of the story is in the forefront, told from both sides, which makes it so much better. After the initial hesitation while the reader wonders about the consent part of the equivalent, it is smooth running. Which is pretty funny actually, as an afterthought, …
This has been so hyped up, so I was super excited to dig into this book! I was super disappointed with the outcome.
It started out with a bang which I was here for. Honestly the smut of this book is 10/10, but the storyline is severely lacking. There was no chemistry and hardly any plot. I felt like it was 95% having sex and 5% dialogue.
I’m …
Well hello there! Where has this series been?! I love how well written and detailed everything unfolds in this book.
Bennett and Chloe’s story was peculiar but that did not hinder me from thoroughly enjoying it.
OMG. I loved every page of this romance. I think it’s time for a re-read.
HOLY SMOKES! I did not expect the number of times this couple got it on in this book! I swear my cheeks were red the whole time I read this book and they never cooled down until the very end! Chloe and Bennett have some amazing chemistry and I couldn’t get enough of them! This is what I call an enemies to lovers book y’all! I don’t know why I …
Loved this book. A keeper.
For those of you that love the dynamic of the demanding, rude boss and the uber competent assistant, this book is right up your alley.
We love these alphas that seem to lose all semblance of controlled behavior when they become smitten with the woman they can’t do without in the office. They are so driven in everything that they fall faster and …
