Review: Beautiful Sinner (Devil's Rock #5) by Sophie Jordan



Locked in with the town bad boy . . .
Most women would be scared, but Gabriella’s only worried about resisting Cruz Walsh, who’s even hotter than he was back in high school. Cruz was wrongly accused of the high-profile crime for which he was imprisoned; Gabriella’s desperate for the scoop that will get her career off the ground and get her out of Sweet Hill, where everyone still remembers her as “Flabby Gabby.” Being stuck in a supply closet with Cruz is the perfect opportunity to land an interview. What Bri doesn’t count on is Cruz taking “up-close and personal” to a whole new level.
If there’s a silver lining to the hell Cruz went through, it’s that losing his freedom put everything in perspective. Maybe starting over someplace new would be easier, but after years locked up, Cruz values his family—and his true friends—more than ever. So he’s back home, facing the gossip, dodging reporters . . . and face-to-face with Gabriella Rossi. They’ve both changed: Bri wants a story and Cruz just wants her. Another thing he’s learned? Don’t let a good thing slip away.

Review:

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars

Beautiful sinner was more readable than the previous book. It had some weak moments, but the pages flew too easily and I didn't even realize how much time had passed by the time I reached the final page. The book had one big weakness and it can be summed up in two words High school. No, the characters are not high schoolers, but sometimes I felt like they were back in high school. Gabriella had Natalie who was still bulling her after 10 years, a sister who had the wrong priorities and her sister's ex who was a creepy douche from page one 'till the end. Cruz was an innocent man who chose to go to prison to save his sister, but as it turned out none of them were the killer and yet the whole town has frowned upon him for some reason instead of admiring the fact that he sacrificed his freedom for his sister and niece. That's not the way you treat people and I didn't like it. We have a lot of bullies in this book and it ruined some of the positive vibes. I loved the way Cruz chose to groove and I would have taken him back in a heartbeat. These two had a good relationship and I never thought that either of them would do something to harm the other like someone in this book did and managed to get on my nerves for that. The book had a strong us vs them vibe and if you don't mind small minded people, you will enjoy reading this book.
