The Summer He Came Home by: Juliana Stone
3.5 Stars
Sleeping with the Enemy meets Sweet Home Alabama.
Cain is a reformed bad boy who has come back to his small town Michigan roots for the funeral of a close friend. Fresh from a tour with his band, and a divorce from his hussy, starlet wife. He is all kinds of rock star hot and broken, in need of a good woman to heal his wounds.
Maggie is a cute, spunky, red-headed southern belle that cleans houses for the locals. She has a cute 7 year old son, and is obviously running from some kind of past.
There are even a few slutty townies and Snobby rich folks thrown in for good measure.
I enjoyed this one as my first read of 2013. It wasn't a thought provoking piece of literature, it was a light and fluffy read to get you through a lonely New Year's Eve. The characters had me drawn in from the beginning, and I can't wait for more Crystal Lake Bad Boys. There is definitely a story behind all the main characters, and I can't wait find out.

Beautiful Bastard by Christina Lauren
An ambitious intern. A perfectionist executive. And a whole lot of name calling. Discover the story that garnered more than two million reads online.
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

It was originally written as a Twi fan-fic titled "The Office". I didn't read that version, so I can not comment on the differences.
This book is the classic alpha male CEO, cute and snarky assistant story. There were lots of sex in inappropriate place, and ripped expensive underwear. That being said, it was a really steamy read. I would rate the sexual tension and witty banter at a solid 4 stars, but the other dialog and character development left a little to be desired.

The good:
- The cover is what really drew me in. I am a sucker for a good cover, I know it makes me superficial....but who cares.
- The tension between Chloe and Bennett was palpable.
- The sex scenes were melt your panties hot!
- The story line left a little to be desired, and the dialog between the characters was a little to predictable.
- I wanted it to be longer.
