Freaking Amazing Series!Book 1~A Beautiful Mess~A Beautiful Mess be T.K. Leigh is one of my favorite books of the year. I've read it twice!Olivia and Alexander are great well rounded characters, and the writing is super. I was hooked for good by chapter 3 and I really didn't want to put it down. I had to force myself to be a part of the "real" world instead of a bystander in theirs!A Beautiful Mess is a great way to spend 99 pennies...that's less than a cup of coffee and you get hours of enjoyment! There are some great one liners, some giggles, some sniffles...definitely a touch on the HOT side but in a more realistic way...no I LOVE YOU in the first couple of days, nor did they jump into bed at their first meeting, but wow Alexander "people call me Mr. Burnham in the bedroom" Burnham can come over and talk to me any day of the week...he's a little bit Dominant (not in a red room of pain kinda way) and very lovey. All around the perfect kinda guy I'd say. Olivia is a simple kind of girl albeit in a messed up kind of way (but aren't we all). The biggest downfall is that I finished the book...it could have just kept going and going and going for me!I can't wait for A Tragic Wreck, due out soon, so I can get another Alexander Burnham fix!Book 2~A Tragic Wreck (my fave of the series)  I received an early copy for my honest opinion. Honestly, this was the BEST book I've read this year! If you haven't read A Beautiful Mess please read that first, as A Tragic Wreck starts at that cliffhanger that ABM left us with. That said, I couldn't wait to get my hands on this book. I devoured it! I will say though, I'm an emotional reader, so I went through some tissues...A Beautiful Mess ends with Olivia running again....A Tragic Wreck introduces us to Cam, a fun-loving surfer who passes by Olivia's place every morning and finally gets up the nerve to talk.She looked up into Cam's eyes. "Tell me what you want, Libby," he growled, reminding her so much of Alexander. Except he wasn't nearly as forceful.He felt her body from her neck to her chest, her legs to her ass, and everything in between. Olivia panted. "I want to feel anything other than the pain, Cam. I want to feel something."Did I mention that Alexander is engaged? Oh yes...Could this be then end of Olivia and Alex for good? Will Cam take Alex's place in Olivia's heart while someone else takes Olivia's place in Alexander's? Can Olivia handle it? You'll have to read it for yourself. I guarantee you won't be disappointed.It's an emotionally driven story of love, loss and desperation...upheaval for all involved. At some points I couldn't read it...couldn't believe Ms. Leigh would do that, yet like the Wreck it says it is, I couldn't NOT read it...So totally engaging. This was a true sleepless night read!Book 3~ Gorgeous Chaos~I've been lucky enough to read the Beta version of this book, and still can't wait for it to come out so I can get my signed paperback copy. Yes, it's that freakin amazing.Holy s***! What a wonderfully Gorgeous Chaotic ending to an amazing series! Tk Leigh has taken the indie publishing world by storm and deservedly so. Her characters are brought to life and revered. Almost anyone who's read them understands the complex beauty in the story.Seriously, if you read NOTHING else this year, please consider A Beautiful Mess, A Tragic Wreck and Gorgeous Chaos and see for yourself how truly amazing it is.I loved the twists and turns to this story...Alexander and Simon are amazing..yet Olivia, I wanted to bitch-slap...She was the epitome of the spoiled rotten inconsiderate brat...By the end, I was tired of her wishy washy spoiled ways. Sorry to see this series end, but I can't wait for TK Leighs next!
