I'm going through a book hangover right now. If any of you liked the intense attraction in Fifty Shades of Grey, but weren't crazy over the BDSM a.k.a extremely erotic scenes, this is the perfect book. Don't get me wrong this is not a book you want to share with your mother. Abby Abernathy is your ultimate good girl who goes to Eastern University to run away from her dark past. Travis Maddox is the biggest bad boy at Eastern University, who can pretty much get any girl he wants. He's also an underground fighter, lean, cut and covered in tattoos, just like Brad Pitt in Fight Club. Abby's best friend America takes her to watch on of the underground fights, where she sees Travis in action.
Travis becomes intrigued with Abby's good girl resistance and tricks her into losing a bet and having to stay at his apartment for a month. This is where the feelings grow and it all goes haywire because when they love they love but when they fight all hell breaks loose for them and everyone around them. They're love is so beautiful and strong that it can become a disaster when something gets in the way, hence the title. I loved me some Fifty Shades Grey, but this story was more believable because they're both average college students who fall in love and go through the typical life obstacles. Just read it if you like contemporary romances because I could not put this book down for anything, I think I didn't even watch television while I was reading this. It had my undivided attention because it was so good.

I love new book recommendations! I havent heard of this one, but it sounds intriguing. I was definitely a part of the "50 Shaded of Grey" craze. Sounds like I will like this one!

Sounds good! Romance novels are the best. And I didn't read the fifty shades of gray because of the erotic scenes.
ReplyDeleteWow, I'll have to check out that book! I'm always looking for new reads!
