Originally
only available online as The Office
by tby789 – and garnering over 2 million reads on fanfiction sites – BEAUTIFUL
BASTARD (Gallery Books; On-sale: February 12,
2013; Trade Paperback; $15.00) has been extensively updated for its first
appearance in print.
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 had been helping him from abroad was the
gorgeous, innocently provocative—completely
infuriating—creature he now has to see every day. Despite the rumors, he
has never been one for a workplace hookup. But Chloe is so tempting he is
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.
An ambitious intern.
A perfectionist executive. And a
whole lot of name calling.
Discover the story that started everybody talking.
About the authors: Christina and Lauren
are a writing duo who have been swooning over romance novels for as long as
they can remember. Separated by the pesky state of Nevada, these co-author
besties speak several times a day, agree that Ruby Pumps is the best nail
polish color ever, and would, if given the choice, spend all day staring at the
ocean from the San Clemente pier. The
pair first met writing fanfiction in 2009, under the names tby789 (The Office) and LolaShoes (My Yes, My No) and launched their
partnership with their popular collaboration, A Little Crazy. Together, they reworked the famous fanfiction The Office into the novel Beautiful Bastard. You can find them
online at Beautiful-Bastard.com or at @seeCwrite and @lolashoes on Twitter.
