Title: Beautiful Bastard - Christina Lauren - book Summary : The new phenomenon: the book that has already won over more than 2 million readers in the United States Beautiful Bastard depicts the tumultuous and torrid relationship between an odious and demanding boss, the irresistible Bennett Ryan, and his young colleague, the superb Chloé Mills, a strong-willed woman with a bright future ahead of her. A romantic duel in the office told alternately by two people consumed by ambition and desire. “A perfect blend of sex, daring and feeling” - CS Stephens Quick-witted, hard-working, and determined, Chloe Mills has only one problem: her boss: Bennett Ryan. Demanding, direct, lacking tact or any consideration for others, he is absolutely... irresistible. A magnificent bastard. Bennett returns to Chicago after spending time in France to play a leading role in the family business he runs, a major media group. Nothing suggested that his assistant, tasked with helping him remotely while he was abroad, would turn out to be the sublime creature—endowed with a provocative and absolutely exasperating innocence—with whom he would now have to work every day. Despite his reputation, Bennett isn't the type to have an affair at work. But Chloe is so alluring that he's considering bending the rules—if not completely shattering them—if it's the only way he can win her over, claim her, possess her. As desire and mutual attraction grow to a breaking point of no return, Bennett and Chloe must decide exactly what they are willing to lose or sacrifice in order to continue their relentless pursuit of each other.
