Beautiful Stranger
By: Christina
Lauren
Publisher: Simon
and Schuster Australia
A charming British
Playboy.
A girl determined
to finally live.
And a secret
liaison revealed in all too vivid colour.
Escaping a cheating ex, finance wiz Sara Dillion’s moved to
New York City and is looking for excitement and passion without a lot of
strings attached. So meeting the irresistible, sexy Brit at a dance club should
have meant nothing more than a night’s fun. But the manner- and speed- with
which he melts her inhabitations turns him from a one-time hookup and into her
Beautiful Stranger.
The whole city knows that Max Stella loves women, not
that he’s ever found one he particularly wants to keep around. Despite pulling
in plenty with his Wall Street bad boy charm, it’s not until Sara- and the wild
photos she lets him take of her- that he starts wondering if there’s someone
for him outside of the bedroom.
Hooking up in places where anybody could catch them, the only thing scarier for Sara than
getting caught in public is having Max get too close in private.
My review
Plot:
Beautiful Stranger is the second book in the Beautiful Bastard series and is
from the point of view of our two main characters: Sara Dillion and Max
Steller. Sara (Chloe’s best friend) has just dumped her cheating ex fiancé and
is not looking for anything serious, just some hot, sweaty fun. Enter Max
Steller (Bennett’s friend from college), a hot British womaniser and after a
hot steamy romp at a dance club, Sara’s new Beautiful Stranger. And so begins
their adventure into meeting up and having sex in weird and wonderful locations
where, most times, they could be caught at any time by anyone and taking photos
of these encounters for their eyes only. Both Max and Sara learn a lot about
not only themselves but each other and discover things that they wouldn’t have
ever imagined that they liked.
What I liked about
the book: I loved the absolute hotness that Beautiful Stranger contained. The sex scenes will have you blushing stop
light red and you will be left hot and bothered and in need of a nice cold
shower after reading the book. And the places that Max and Sara have sex will
leave you dreaming of having the same experiences that they have.
I must also admit that I liked Beautiful Stranger better than
Beautiful Bastard and I can properly say that I will like the next instalment
in the series even better. The books just seem to get better and better with
each one.
What I didn’t like
about the book: There wasn’t really much that I didn’t like about this book
besides the fact that it had to end.
Favourite
character: Now this is a tough one. I mean Sara changes so much throughout
the book, from a timid fiancé who decides to uproot her life after discovering
that her fiancé has been cheating on her for six years to a sex maniac who
likes being photographed and having sex in public places. But I think the winner has to be Max Steller.
I mean what girl wouldn’t fall in love with him. For starters he is soooo hot
and hello he is British. Pretty much sums it all up right there.
Favourite
part/quote: This quote says it all:
“ When I say ‘I
love you’ I don’t mean that I love what being with you does for my career, or I
love how often you’re willing to shag. I mean I love you. I love making you
laugh, and seeing how you react to things, and getting to know the little
things about you. I love who I am with you, and I’m trusting you not to hurt
me.”
5/5
