Beautiful Disaster By Jamie McGuire

The new Abby Abernathy is a good girl. She doesn’t drink or swear, and she has the appropriate number of cardigans in her wardrobe. Abby believes she has enough distance from the darkness of her past, but when she arrives at college with her best friend, her path to a new beginning is quickly challenged by Eastern University's Walking One-Night Stand. 

Travis Maddox, lean, cut, and covered in tattoos, is exactly what Abby needs—and wants—to avoid. He spends his nights winning money in a floating fight ring, and his days as the ultimate college campus charmer. Intrigued by Abby’s resistance to his appeal, Travis tricks her into his daily life with a simple bet. If he loses, he must remain abstinent for a month. If Abby loses, she must live in Travis’s apartment for the same amount of time. Either way, Travis has no idea that he has met his match

I give ★★★★★

Beautiful Disaster was a test to see how fit I was to read something a little closer to Adult-y stuff, even though it wasn't even close to warming up to Fifty Shades of Grey, I thought it might've gotten me one step closer to that Romance Genre. It was adventurous throughout the beginning to the end. Despite my irritation at times, I was unable to take breaks, the book had me hooked at all times, and the hardest thing to do was have a life when reading it, honestly.

The tension, sarcasm, the hate and love it was all there, everything I like about a beginning to end relationship in a book was there. Not to mention that it contained this idea of no third wheels when both Abby and America were in a relationship and hung out at their boyfriend's apartment. Thats just absolutely cool. I am also a fan of bets, I tend to lose them quite frequently but the whole idea, it was all there, in this book and it was awesome. 

“After climbing off his bike, I smacked his shoulder. “Did you forget I was with you? Are you trying to get me killed?”

“It’s hard to forget you’re behind me when your thighs are squeezing the life out of me.” A smirk came with his next thought. “I couldn’t think of a better way to die, actually.”

“There is something very wrong with you.” 

OH OH ,the jealous act. Yes. I love that too. 

"I let you have your say. My patience has run out." Parker tried to look at me, but Travis leaned in his way. "Don't fucking look at her. Look at me, you spoiled shit stain." Parker focused on Travis's eyes and waited. "If you so much as breathe in her direction, I'll make sure you'll be limping through med school."

“The anger subsided, and my shoulders fell. “I know you didn’t. But you have got to curb this overprotective big-brother thing you’ve got going on.”

Travis laughed once. “I’m not playing the big brother, Pigeon. Not even close.” 

Okay, so I may have mentioned if not, I'm mentioning it now. I am still in Disney world, meaning a make out scene may still make me flinch, so this was all new to me. All of it.
