Perfect Chemistry

Perfect Chemistry Trilogy by Simone Elkeles
As you can tell from the whole "Trilogy" thing there are three books to Ms. Elkeles romance series.  The Perfect Chemistry Series follows the three (shall I say smoking hot) Fuentes brothers.
In perfect Chemistry we follow the oldest brother Alex as he tries to deal with being a part of the Latino Blood while falling in love with the popular and beautiful Brittany Ellis.  Even though love seems to pull them together can it these two very different teenagers ever really be together?
In Elkeles second novel we follow the second Fuentes brother, Carlos as he travels to Colorado to live with Alex two years later.  Carols is dead on raising hell after the unwanted move but when he starts to have feelings for good girl Kiara Westford will his desires stay the same?
In the final book of the series comes to an end with the youngest brother Louis who lives on the edge and is always up for a challenge, but when meets by-the-rules Nikki Cruz will he be willing to risk it all?

I give this series and 8 out of 10

Now I have read and reread these books over and over.  Yes they are my guilty pleasure.  These books are kind of every white girls fantasy of having the hot dangerous hispanic boy fall in love with them.  As a goody two shoes white girl myself I fell IN LOVE with all three boys, but the thing is if you are not a goody two shoes white girl these books will most likely not appeal to you.  Another snag in the series is essentially all these books are the same.  Boy meets girl.  Boy and girl hate each other. Boy and girl fall in love.  Boy and girl face obstacles.   Boy and girl conquer the odds and live happily ever after.  The end.
But the books are extremely well written and hold your interest through the entire story, so if you're ok with the similar theme's and are looking for a feel good romance novel that won't make you feel like you've lost brain cells in the process, then Simone Elkeles is perfect for you!  She clearly is a talented writer and takes a simple theme and creates a riveting story. So over all if your looking for a riveting piece of literature this is probably not the place to find it.  But if  you are looking for an extremely well written heart wrenching  romance novel that will make your heart pound and your panties slightly wet, then I'd say give this series a try you won't be disappointed.
Mmmm, I just had to include this nice little photo to persuade you
