Overview from goodreads.com
 
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 Bastard.

Bennett has returned to Chicago from France to take a vital role in his family’s massive media business. He never expected that the assistant who’d been helping him from abroad was the gorgeous, innocently provocative—completely infuriating—creature he now has to see every day. Despite the rumors, he’s never been one for a workplace hookup. But Chloe’s so tempting he’s willing to bend the rules—or outright smash them—if it means he can have her. All over the office.

As their appetites for one another increase to a breaking point, Bennett and Chloe must decide exactly what they’re willing to lose in order to win each other. Originally only available online as The Office by tby789—and garnering over two million reads on fan fiction sites—Beautiful Bastard has been extensively updated for re-release
 
My Review:

*Disclaimer: I received a copy of this ebook from the publisher via Netgalley for an honest review*

Let me just start by saying that I loved this book!  I read it in two sittings, but only because I was overcome by exhaustion at 2am and fell asleep with my head on my kindle.  As soon as Monkey was back at school the next morning I was right back into it.
 
The relationship between Chloe and Bennett was intriguing and a classic Love/Hate relationship with neither one of them wanting to admit what they feel for each other.  The story is well written and the sex is steamy!  One of my favorite things about the book was that Chloe is a strong heroine.  She's not the basic, naive virginal girl that so many books are working with lately.  She is smart, strong and gives it as good as she gets.
 
I highly recommend this book to anyone who is a fan of a sexy alpha male, a strong heroine and sex in the workplace!
