It's Jamie McGuire stepping in and taking #2 with Beautiful Oblivion! *Happy dances* It's hard to resist anything from the woman who brought us Travis Maddox, especially when she's giving us all the Maddox brothers one by one! *Squeals excitedly* I adore all the brothers, and have been super impatient for Trenton to get his HEA. Jamie does not disappoint minions. I really loved Cami and thought her perfect for Trenton, so I was pretty frustrated with this mystery boyfriend. I about passed out from shock when he's revealed, I mean way to knock the wind out of us Jamie. Trenton was of course perfect, and while I want to say he's my favourite I simply can't, my heart will forever belong to Travis minions. That being said Trenton was still a noteworthy hero, his character has a lot of depth and when he sets his mind to something he'll find a way to get it. The writing style was great, and I loved how the pace of the book always stayed steady, bracing us for the upcoming events that unfold towards the end. This is a definite recommend for everyone, but especially lovers of Beautiful Disaster. Now I know I've written another short review, but don't worry minions once I'm back on my game, I'll hit you full force with long ass reviews! You'll find the review on the Reviews page HERE, as well as on Goodreads (soon). So if you've somehow missed all things Maddox, I have the stunning cover and blurb below for you to fawn over, woth buy links of course! Fiercely independent Camille "Cami" Camlin gladly moved on from her childhood before it was over. She has held down a job since before she could drive, and moved into her own apartment after her freshman year of college. Now tending bar at The Red Door, Cami doesn’t have time for much else besides work and classes, until a trip to see her boyfriend is cancelled, leaving her with a first weekend off in almost a year. Trenton Maddox was the king of Eastern State University, dating co-eds before he even graduated high school. His friends wanted to be him, and women wanted to tame him, but after a tragic accident turned his world upside down, Trenton leaves campus to come to grips with the crushing guilt. Eighteen months later, Trenton is living at home with his widower father, and works full-time at a local tattoo parlor to help with the bills. Just when he thinks his life is returning to normal, he notices Cami sitting alone at a table at The Red. As the baby sister of four rowdy brothers, Cami believes she’ll have no problem keeping her new friendship with Trenton Maddox strictly platonic. But when a Maddox boy falls in love, he loves forever—even if she is the only reason their already broken family could fall apart. Amazon UK | Amazon US | B&N |
