Oh my gosh, I don’t think I could have been more caught up in You Beautiful Thing You, than I was. The whole book was an absolute roller coaster of emotions, from hate to lust to love. I wondered if this was gonna be spicy, and oh man was it ever.  In high school, Tempest had a crush on her brother soccer enemy,  Ledger . She never expected for him to return her feelings. And years later when she was put in to a desperate situation by her father she knew that she wanted a piece of Ledger to take with her. There was so much emotion in this book and it truly pulled me in and I had no choice but devour this book in one sitting. There’s a lot of twist, turns and back and forth, I was on the edge the entire book. I’m just glad I got my HEA.
