Mmmm delicious awkward, nervous hero. Part of the reason I really enjoyed this book is that its absolutely laden with UST. A lot of time in New Adult the sex happens so fast that a lot of the tension fizzles out. Beautiful Secret does a remarkable job of keeping the sexual content heavy (all Laurens books are pretty damn hot) while keeping the tension high. * Smart Bitches, Trashy Books on Beautiful Secret * The thing that I love the most about Christina Lauren and the duos Beautiful books is that there is always humor in them.
