Beautiful Disaster


Beautiful Disaster by Jamie McGuire
Beautiful Disaster is about a girl called Abby who is a freshman in college running away from her past. Then she meets Travis Maddox tattooed, womanizer and general all round badass. Abby wants nothing to do with Travis beacause he reminds her of what she left. An unusual friendship forms between them but is that all it is?
I love love loved this book! I can't count the number of times I've read it! I am eagerly anticipating Walking Disaster which is Travis POV. This book is not like 50 Shades of Grey no matter what people say I do Not see the similarities. Anyways this is a good book which had me smiling, cringing and laughing at parts it made my heart tight. One of my favorites, I'd give it 5/5. 

Finding Sky YA


Finding Sky by Joss Stirling
Finding Sky is a book about a British girl called Sky Bright who has just moved to Colorado with her adoptive parents. In Colorado she meets a tall, dark and brooding boy called Zed. He's a bad boy but Sky feels herself drawn to him on more than just a normal level but a paranormal one...Can she really be what Zed says a Savant? And can she be his Soulfinder? (Savants are people with special powers such as seeing the future, healing etc., they also have soulfinders these are like soul mates)
I loved this young adult book, it is the first in the Benedict series. I think it has a solid love story that makes you go 'Awww' but also had that extra edge to keep you interested. I love bad boys especially ones who fall for the complete opposite of them for so this book really was for me. I usually don't go for the paranormal romance books any more though as I think there a bit ridiculous but this is an exception I was glad I made. Overall I think teens between 12-16 will enjoy it the most but it might be something NA readers might enjoy. I'd give it 4.5/5.

Beauty from Pain NA/Romance


Beauty from Pain
 The book I read last night was Beauty from pain by Georgia Cates. This book is set in Australia were an American Laurelyn Prescott meets the wine making, multimillionaire and one of Australia's most eligible bachelors Jake McLachlan. Jack is no stranger to the complications that being successful and wealthy leads to in relationships. So he made his own game with his own rules, relationships with no strings attached, no long term relationships and no names. But will Laurelyn be able to play the game his way with his rules for three months and fly back to Nashville without her heart broken?
I really enjoyed this book I stayed up late to read it but honestly at the end i felt a bit cheated I know its only the first book in the series but i assumed that the next book would be about other characters that were in the book so be warned. Otherwise the book was good I liked the main characters though I'm not sure about Laurelyn's friend Addison, the plot was kept my attention and I defiantly wanted to know what would happen next, there was also some funny parts mixed in there. I would recommed this book to people who like Ruth Cardello's Maid for the Billionaire or books about rich men. The book left me hanging so I'm defiantly going to get the next book in the Beauty series when it comes out. 
I'd give this book 3/5
