My rating: 5 of 5 stars
White Trash Beautiful by Teresa Mummert will get under your skin and into your heart from practically the first page! An touching story of family, abuse and how love makes a difference.
Audible Audiobook"Review: White Trash #1: White Trash beautiful"
If you could sum up White Trash Beautiful in three words, what would they be?
Love conquers all!
What other book might you compare White Trash Beautiful to and why?
Oh, I don't think I've really ever read anything quite like this. Um, the abuse both characters suffered in Jessica Sorensen's "Callie & Kayden" series and maybe Julianne's painful experience in Gabriel's Inferno by Sylvain Reynard.
Which scene was your favorite?
The scene where they were dancing in the hotel room and probably the very last scene in the book which I won't describe due to spoilers.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
This book hurt. People suffer the abuse that Cass suffered every day, it's tragic, but at least for a fairy tale moment this girl found her handsome white knight to rescue her along the way. Well, it wasn't smooth going in the book either. There were loads of speed bumps along the way.But, it made for an excellent story.
Any additional comments?
Grace Grant is an excellent performer and I find myself looking for audiobooks that she specifically has narrated. The skills of the performer make a huge difference for the book and she is just fantastic!
I’m not naïve. I know I don’t get the happily ever after. My knight in shining armor took the highway detour around this godforsaken shit hole. I’ve made peace with that. That doesn’t mean I’m going to lie down like a doormat and let every cocky prick in the trailer park have his way with me.

“I’m not your sweet- heart.”
“Challenge accepted.” He laughed.
These guys were all the same. I sighed.
-Cass
“please don’t regret me, Cass.” His voice was barely audible as he ran his thumb over my cheek, catching the stray tear that had betrayed me. His words unleashed a floodgate.
-Tucker
“Tucker, the sky is the limit for you. My limit is the tattered fence around this trailer park.”
-Cass
I can still smell you all over me. I can’t stop thinking about you. — Tuck
-Tucker
He put his finger to my lips to stop me from talking. “The only thing I ever wanted out of my life was someone to share it with.”
