Here's the blurb for Beautiful Disaster:
INTENSE. DANGEROUS. ADDICTIVE.
Abby Abernathy is a good girl. She doesn’t drink or swear, and she has the appropriate number of cardigans in her wardrobe. Abby believes she has enough distance from the darkness of her past, but when she arrives at college with her best friend, her path to a new beginning is quickly challenged by Eastern University’s Walking One-Night Stand.
Travis Maddox, lean, cut, and covered in tattoos, is exactly what Abby wants—and needs—to avoid. He spends his nights winning money in a floating fight ring, and his days as the ultimate college campus charmer. Intrigued by Abby’s resistance to his appeal, Travis tricks her into his daily life with a simple bet. If he loses, he must remain abstinent for a month. If Abby loses, she must live in Travis’s apartment for the same amount of time. Either way, Travis has no idea that he has met his match.

I belong to my beloved and my beloved is mine!
ReplyDeleteI love this book!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite line: “To douchebags!" he said, gesturing to Brad. "And to girls that break your heart," he bowed his head to me. His eyes lost focus. "And to the absolute fucking horror of losing your best friend because you were stupid enough to fall in love with her.”
ReplyDeleteI haven'r read it to know any quotes, but it is actually at the TOP of my need to get NOW books. I am so wanting to read this, and want it in print for my bookshelf. It looks so good!
ReplyDeleteJust love the whole book! Can't pick one particular quote :-)
ReplyDeleteHave a blast in Spain!!! Thanks for the giveaway. Can.t wait to meet you at Book Bash.
ReplyDeleteI thought I was the only person left on Earth to not read this book :) It's on my TBR...I guess I need to hurry it up :)
ReplyDelete“-It's over. Go home.You're my home.” <3
ReplyDeleteFavorite quotes:
ReplyDelete“WELL I BELONG TO YOU!” The veins in his neck bulged as he shouted, and I met his glare, refusing to even flinch. He looked at my lips, panting. “I belong to you,” he whispered, his anger melting as he realized how close we were.
“To douchebags!” he said, gesturing to Brad. “And to girls that break your heart,” he bowed his head to me. His eyes lost focus. “And to the absolute fucking horror of losing your best friend because you were stupid enough to fall in love with her.”
I loved the whole book so much that I am not sure if I can pick just one quote. I guess it would have to be "I belong to my beloved & my beloved is mine"
ReplyDelete“You know why I want you? I didn’t know I was lost until you found me. I didn’t know what alone was until the first night I spent without you in my bed. You’re the one thing I’ve got right. You’re what I’ve been waiting for, Pigeon.”
ReplyDeleteI loved this book. i would love to feel the actual pages turning in my fingertips...
ReplyDeleteWhat a great giveaway. This book was amazing, as I'm sure everyone will agree! There were so many great quotes in that book...
ReplyDelete“You’re sorry? I damn near drank myself to death, I could barely get out of bed, I shattered my phone into a million pieces on New Year’s Eve to keep from calling you … and you’re sorry?”
I bit my lip and nodded, ashamed. I had no idea what he’d been through, and hearing his say the words made sharp pain twist inside my chest. “I’m so … so sorry.”
“You’re forgiven,” he said with a grin. “Don’t ever do it again.”
“I won’t. I promise.”
He flashed his dimple and shook his head. “I fucking love you.”

To actually hold the book would be awesome :) Thank you
"It's over.
ReplyDeleteGo home.
You're my home.”
This is on my to-read list! Looks so good!
ReplyDeletemy favorite quote is “I knew the second I met you
ReplyDeletethat there was something about you I needed. Turns out it
wasn’t something about you at all. It was just you.”
Loved it so much!
ReplyDelete"We'll I belong to you"
Sigh! I love BD and WD so much!!! <3 My fav quote from BD is:
ReplyDelete“You can’t tell me what to do anymore, Travis! I don’t belong to you!” In the second it took him to turn and face me, his expression had contorted into anger. He stomped toward me, planting his hands on the bed and leaning into my face. “WELL I BELONG TO YOU!” The veins in his neck bulged as he shouted, and I met his glare, refusing to even flinch. He looked at my lips, panting. “I belong to you.”
TRAVIS MADDOX, I LOVE YOU!
Thanks so much for the giveaway! :)

Thank you for the giveaway! I don't have a favorite but I really like the speech that Abby gives when she and Travis first get together. The one where she calls Parker after she picks Travis :) Thanks, again!
ReplyDeleteI haven't read this book yet, so I don't have a favorite quote!
ReplyDeleteI don't own the book so I can't pick a favorite. I do love that Travis called her "Pigeon." It's DEFINITELY unique and that makes it special.
ReplyDeleteLove this book!!

ReplyDelete“It wasn’t just me, and it wasn’t just him, it was what we were together that was the exception.”
I wanna be Mrs. Maddox!! ;-)
I've got a couple of favorite quotes.....
ReplyDelete"I know we're f*^#ed up, all right? I'm impulsive, hot-tempered, and you get under my skin like no one else. You act like you hate me one minute, and then you need me the next."
Another...
A pained look shadowed his face. "You know why I want you? I didn't know I was lost until you found me. I didn't know what love was until the first night I spent with you in my bed. You're the one thing I've got right. You're what I've been waiting for, Pigeon."
