Synopsis

He's the bad boy that she created.
And now he's back for revenge.

My name is Eleanor Brighton, and I’m the perfect daughter.

P-E-R-F-E-C-T.

For the past four years, I’ve painstakingly built my life to be impressive in every way–great grades, steadfast maturity, and even dedicating to attend my dad’s alma mater in the fall to make him proud.

Except lately, it kind of feels like he resents me for it.

And now I have another problem.

Beckham Jennings is back in town.

Four years ago, the country club’s most-hated bad boy was chased out of town after setting one of the gardens on fire. Now he’s back with a smirk and a reputation, and he gives me a lazy promise:

He’s going to steal my heart.

As if it hasn’t belonged to him since I was eight years old.

But his words are more than some flippant game–they’re a threat. From the hard look in Beck’s eyes, it’s clear he hates me for what happened four years ago… and he should. Because it was all my fault.

The bad boy I created is ready for revenge… and for the first time in forever, I’m tempted to give in.

H-E-L-P.

Beauty and the Bad Boy is an enemies to lovers sweet YA romance, with all the swoon and none of the spice. If you like cinnamon roll bad boys, imperfect good girls, and swoonworthy slow burns, the first book in the Beauties and Boys duology is for you.
