Beautiful Stranger (The Beautiful Series Book 2)

Now on to the 3rd book of the Beautiful Series.....Beautiful Stranger. Now we meet Max...a sexy Brit. Bennett's friend who lent him his chateau in France. Yum Yum. I could not put this book down!!!! Like the others, a super quick read filled with lot's of sex and steamy situations. LOVED IT!!!! Now onto Beautiful Bombshell for me!!! Can't wait to see what happens between the characters in this book!!!

I like these books by Christina Lauren because they aren't too serious all the time and the lead female character isn't some weeping willow, ready to submit to her sex crazed boyfriend. Both the male and female are sex crazed and its fun to read. I admit, I liked Beautiful Bastard and Beautiful B#tch slightly more, but only because Chloe and Bennett are both Type A personalities, like me.

These girls are absolutely awesome. I love their writing. This book is dramatically different than BB and while I like it, I have to say a couple things upset me. I am glad that I read this AFTER reading Beautiful Bitch. Honestly, had I read this when it came out, I probably would have quit the series. Not happy about something related to Chloe and Bennett's relationship. (Refuse to elaborate as it's a spoiler.)

Loved it!!! This book kept me interested from start to finish. Sara Dillon has good reason to be bitter and very suspicious of men due to her ex-fiancé. However, when she meets Max Stella, he is not willing to let her get away no matter how much she tries to run away. Beautiful Stranger is steamy, dramatic and will keep you guessing on what Max and Sara will do next...and where ;-)=

This is the 3rd Beautiful series book I have read and so far it's my favorite. I love how Max was so patient with Sarah, how he slowly got her to trust him and how he was wiling to try to fulfill her fantasies. What I most loved about the book was how romantic it was, even their love making or wild sex was SUPER ROMANTIC! Look forward to reading the next book in the series.

I love how this book had the girl independent and as successful as the male. It seemed like Chloe had the upper hand in this relationship and not like the other books where the male is dominate. They both are scared to love and be open but both decided to give it a try. Love this story!

This book follows Beautiful Bastard but is awesome all on its own. This was different than other books I have read. You deffinately get to explore very steamy "PDA"'s (to say it mildly). I loved this book all the way thru. Amazing detail and WOW. You can never get enough of a man with an accent. Can't wait to see what comes next...hopefully a story for Will.

Well written. Max is sexy and compelling. Not quite sure what he sees in Sara though. Her character didn't quite measure up for me. The sex scenes were frequent and good, but I think I prefer more romance in my romance novels. But if you're looking for a quick read and enjoy hot sex scenes this series is for you. It was fun, but like a one-night stand, I probably won't go back for more.

Thank you for this book! The timing was just right. The storyline flowed in the perfect tempo. I loved Sara from the first two books, and was intrigued with Max in the second! Hot damn, I love these two together! Super sexy and crazy kinky! Just my type of people! Damn good book!

I loved Beautiful Bastard and was really looking forward to this book.

The sex scenes are hot, the book is well written. I just had a hard time liking the characters because all they seem to want to do is have sex in public. I found that disappointing.

I will likely read another book in the Beautiful Series in the future.

I was blown away by this book, because finally an author was creative enough to have the female the controlling factor in this relationship. The book was witty, erotic and I loved Max. He was so totally an alpha male completely entralled with Sara and the fact that she wanted him for sex only. Read the book, you'll love it. Can't wait for the next book in this series.

As with all of Christina Lauren's 'Beautiful' series, Beautiful Stranger is a delightful read; you wont be able to put it down; its sexy, hot and hilarious; I adored Sarah 'Petal' and Max ~ what a wild ride these two will take you on! I've now read the entire series, and have to be honest when I say, I enjoyed the writing and characterization more than the other books of this genre. This one's a fast page turner, so don't miss it!!!!

I got reacquainted with erotic romance after reading the Fifty Shades of Grey trilogy last year and have been sampling other authors. I fell in love with Beautiful Bastard by this author and was excited when this companion was released. Good writing and interesting characters made this a great read, less than 24 hours from start to finish. Hot stuff! Keep them coming!

I didn't think they could top Beautiful Bastard but her I sit Corrected. I couldn't put this book down. Max Stella I want to take you everywhere I go. This book had me from the first chapter hook.line.and sinker. If you thought the sequel had to have Chloe and Bennett your wrong this book was worth EVERY PENNY. What are you waiting for ONE CLICK this ASAP!!!

I've just started on the store and decided to give review for books I already have, as this series is one of them. Long story short...... if you're looking for a book that keeps you wanting to know about each character and keeps your emotions changing while getting a good laugh. This is the series for you.

Nonstop ride of sexual escapades. Completely loved it. Max, with the sexy British accent, Sara the sweet shy adorable brunette, or so he thought. The chemistry between the two characters was sizzling. An added bonus of course was the subtle insertion of Chloe and the Beautiful Bastard, Bennett. Highly recommend this entire series.

In my opinion this book is even better than Beautiful Bastard. I absolutely adore Max and Sara. It of course doesn't hurt that Max is a hot, sexy Brit! I highly recommend this book to any one who loves a good love story with just enough stream without being too crass!

Seriously smokin'! A little bit of a predictable formula, the follow up to Beautiful Bastard didn't let me down. Enjoyed it (blush) tremendously! Their penchant for almost getting caught in precarious places adds some heart rate increase as well!

Looking for some sizzle? Recommend!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I can relate to Sara and the feeling of trying to reinvent yourself, or really just trying to figure out who you are to begin with after being in a long term relationship. Getting to catch up with the characters from Beautiful Bastard was an added bonus. I'm not sure I agree with how quickly Sara doubted Max, especially not giving him a chance to explain. Although, every story needs some drama. I highly recommend this book and Beautiful Bastard!

Get introduced to the second of the trio of Beautiful Men! Meet Max and Sara. You won't regret it. These books are a wee bit on the Sleazy end of the scale, but they have so much plot, with great story lines that you don't mind the smut. Nothing like 50 Shades. I highly suggest reading this series, beginning with Beautiful Bastard.

When I realized this was not a continuation of Bennett and Chloe's story, I wasn't sure about it. Needless to say I was pleasantly surprised. I loved Max Stella! The chemistry between Max and Sara was off the charts. It was a nice, quick, easy read. I can't wait to see if they will come out with another.

I really, really love this series. It's erotica, but not. Having the book written from both his point of view and hers is riveting. The reader gets to experience the hero and heroine fall in love, when neither was looking for it, so intimately. Thanks Christina Lauren for another wonderful book.

I liked this book. It was very HOT! Thoroughly enjoyed the public places and steamy moments. It's always a downfall when a character takes a long time to let go and admit feelings, which happened in this book. But it was still great!!! Get it and be prepared for a hot read ;)

Now for those that don't remember Sara, she worked with Chloe at Ryan Media...she was the one that talked to Bennett when he screwed up with Chloe.

The story development and characters were well developed, which impressed me. BB had less of a flowing plot, but this was done well in this story.

Max, perfect. After one crazy night with a Beautiful Stranger Sara decides to let go and give into her fantasies. With a deal struck with Max a casual affair begins.

But Max seems to be deeper than just a wealthy playboy and Sara's cheating ex might have done more damage than she thought.

I really enjoyed this one, the sex was good and very public ;) The romance grew throughout the story un-rushed. The varying POVS allowed you to fall for Max easily. The dialogue was good as well.

I hope we might get a book for Will too.

Max Stella! What a charmer. Love the characters in this book (and in the entire series)! The dialogue is witty--the story flows beautifully. The authors have really touched on a cadre of characters in this series that one would love to know and be part of their group!

I love this series! This might just be better than the first one, which I loved! I find that the second book that contains characters from the first is typically not as good as the first in the series, but this one was just as good and longer! If you enjoyed Beautiful Bastard you will love this one!

I read and loved Beautiful Bastard and was really excited this book came out!It's a really loving and hot book ! The sex scenes are amazing and the love between Max and Sara is remarkable! I would definitely recommend this book. I hope Christina Lauren come out with more sequels or more booms just like this.

It is hot, steamy, adventurous, passionate but for some reason the characters, while written fairly well, did not pull on me or make me feel it was believable. Don't get me wrong it is not a bad book, it just didn't capture me like other books have.

Max Stella, with the accent and dirty mouth! Yum!!
I really enjoyed this book, maybe even more so than the first. My only complaint would be the amount of time they were together as just "friends", I wanted more. But that's just me being greedy.
