Description
An ambitious intern. A perfectionist executive. And a whole lot of name calling. Discover the “deliciously steamy” (Entertainment Weekly) romance novel that launched the careers of the New York Times bestselling authors of Love and Other Words and The Unhoneymooners.
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.

5By LoveysheLoved it!!Hated it
1By Shalom MolinaThis book was awful and predictableFirst book I’ve read willingly
5By Emmy316Let me tell you. I am not a book reader at all. I can’t tell you the last book I read that wasn’t required for school purposes. But this book I took a chance on based off a friend telling me to read it. I love it. I read it twice. The chemistry they have is unreal and the outcome I loved. It makes me not wanna read the second book to this in case they don’t end up together lolGood plot
5By tpeelzLoved this book. It kept me interested the whole time.Wow Wow Wow
5By FLDSMDFURFI love a good from enemies to lovers story and this was a super HOT oneAmazing book
5By StephNavarI loved how the authors decided to include the thoughts of both Chloe and Bennet. Having to view their pure emotions. I also loved how I can see how each of them show how they fall in love little by little with their actions, thoughts, and emotions. This book had me hooked and addicted. Amazing work, I definitely recommend.Would have been 5 stars but..
4By Layni1998I wished the book was longer. I truly did. I enjoyed reading it. I was sad when I realized I got to the last page. It was hard to put it down. 🤍Excellent! Again and Again!
5By luvtoread44I have nothing but praise for this book. I’ve read it several times and it just gets better and better. Sharp, witty, sexy, genuine and just overall fun to read and get lost in. Highly recommended. Update: I just re-read this book for the maybe 10th time? Still love it. There is something about the chemistry between Bennett and Chloe that is genuine and never gets old.Love these two
5By G1H2Goodness, Chloe and Bennett’s chemistry is off the charts! They are smoking hot from the very beginning. I loved their banter and the love-hate between them. Really fun quick read that have me begging for more!This book is perfection!
5By Travelqueen77If I could give it 100 stars, I would. No skimming, not wordy, very hot and engaging throughout. Adding this one to the best of the best list. 💛WOW
5By ELingal04I never read a book by this Arthur but this book was amazing. I could not put it down. I have already purchased book #2 which I am hoping it’s as good as the story between Bennett and Chloe. The sizzling chemistry between these two was off the charts. The hate then love story was told very well.AH-Mazing!
5By mldixon1991I finished this book within a 24 hour period. I started and couldn’t stop!Obsessed
5By steph8206This is one of those books that you end up going back to for the 100th time. I cant even remember how many times I’ve read BB at this point! So so good and you truly root for these two to make it!!! Love this book so much.Beautiful bastard
5By jojoswainBest everNot a love story
1By Samee sam samIt’s not a love story tbh. It’s porn. I paid w/o knowing. But didn’t finish reading.Beautiful Bastard
2By vbayles18This book was just okay. I can’t believe it was $9 though!! Compared to the Wild Season series, this book is boring. You barely get to know the characters. Maybe it’s just me but i like a description of the characters. I didn’t even know what color Chloe’s eyes were and you didn’t hear about her hair color until pretty far in. It would’ve been nice to see the characters on their own more. A background to each one and why they are the way they are would’ve been helpful too. If you love Christina Lauren as much as me i highly recommend the Wild Season series. Especially Finn and Harlowe’s book.
