Beautiful Disaster

Book review

Beautiful disaster speaks about Abby Abernathy. She was a bad girl called "lucky thirteen" because when she was only thirteen she started to play poker against the best players and she always won. But new she's a new girl beginning a new life, away from home. Abby doesn't drink and doesn't bed and she has a lot of cardigans in her closet.
But it can't be that good, when she starts her first year in the university, she meet Travis Maddox, the bad guy tattooed form head to toe, he fights in illegal university fights to pay his degree and everything becomes too familiar, he reminds her too much of her past, and she can't come back at the same life.
Travis is an exception in the university, he play with all girls, he doesn't want nothing serious with them, until he meets Abby, she's the first girl who doesn't lose his head when he appears, and it's new to him.
He started to speak because America, Abby's best friend, and Shepley, Travis cousin, are dating so they begin to go out together, and Abby starts a friendship with Travis.
They start to live in the same apartment because Abby's university residence hasn't hot water.

What began as a friendship, start to change, they both feel different things, they fell in love but they don't want to accept it, especially Abby, she think they can't be a couple. But with time and lots of share memories between them, they can't denied it more time.

After two months they're in a party and America warns Abby that her father's there. He's outside the house asking for she. He owes a lot of money and she has to go to Las Vegas, with America, Travis and Shepley to get it, but when they come back, everything's different between she and Travis, because he wants to working for Benny, she can't do nothing so she broke up with him.

After Christmas holidays everything has changed and she pass a bad two months because she still love him.

In Saint Valentine's party, she argues with him, but at the end of the night they're together again and they're the happiest couple in the university.
In the last Travis fight, he win it, but they're in an old basement with an old oil lights. With the movement of people one light falls to the ground and everything begin to burn... She can't get away there are too many people, and she's about to faint from smoke, when Travis come back to save her.

Finally... I'm not going to tell the end of the story, I think that it's the worst thing I could do, if you want to know it... so.. you can read the book, or of course, you can ask me!

There are a funny expression that I want to tell. For example in the story Abby calls America "Mare" and when she says good night often says "Night, Mare" joking with nightmares, and America gets angry, this made me laugh.

In my opinion it's a good story, a bit repetitive but It's enjoyable.
If you want to read Travis point of view and know more, you can also read: Walking disaster, it's also a good story!:)
