What happens when you take an uptight businessman and an outgoing California-girl and take them on a business trip to New York City? Well, Ruby Miller knows because when she is tasked with spending a month with her firm's top urban planning executive, she doesn't know if this trip will make or break her.

Her crush on Niall Stella has been growing since his recent divorce. Unfortunately, Niall doesn't think he is capable of having a relationship with women but when a flirty plane ride results in some laughter and fun, Niall begins to question if love is all that bad!

Christina Lauren have a way with creating upbeat characters who jump from the pages. There's a lot of personality in this book, especially when it comes to the heroine, Ruby. Her narrative is off the charts funny and upbeat, setting it apart from the more serious and stoic nature of Niall. So there's a nice juxtaposition with their characters, making the romance that much more entertaining.

Christina Lauren has a very simple but approachable writing style so BEAUTIFUL SECRET is quite the easy read. But when you factor in the level of heat this book has, it makes it that much more easy to devour. BEAUTIFUL SECRET is a sexy romp of a book that will definitely be a trip you'll remember.
