Her brother knew it, her best friend knew it. Everyone knew it. She lives for the moment, doing whatever she feels and thinking of the consequences later. Her main goal in life is to live it.
Mia’s brother’s best friend Drake O’Connell was never big on rules.
The judge who sentences him to 2 years in prison knew it. He is known for being the bad boy, partying and womanizing. His charm, good looks, and obnoxious behavior made his life pretty easy and his main goal in it was to have fun. He had lost 2 years of his life locked up, so he was determined to make up for a lost time.
So when these two people are thrown together, both without a care in the world, issues of their own, and more secrets than an episode of Pretty Little Liars, you can expect a story full of laughs, tears, arguments, and felonies.
They might be breaking the law, but both Mia and Drake are about to find out that when it feels wrong, it is ALWAYS more fun.
I just want to take a moment and say how this is. THIS IS LITERALLY ONE OF THE BEST I'VE EVER READ. Her choice of words were amazing, it was so funny and yet adorable. And did anyone notice how many references she made from books and everything else?
THIS BOOK NEEDS TO BE PUBLISHED AND FORMATTED INTO A PAPERBACK! I NEED IT IN MY COLLECTION!
I swear I have never found a book as fucking hilarious, bluntly honest and all out fun to read! It was perfect. It wasn't a love a first sight book nor a guy with a shit load of money falling for a damsel in distress.
This book was straight forward book. It dealt with young kids who had nothing but still made the best out of every situation. And the humor, sarcastic saying and so forth were absolutely, ridiculously hysterical. I couldn't breathe at certain points in this book because of half the shit that was being said. I literally had tears streaming down my face from laughing so hard.
Mia, though she drank too much was my favorite character. Her smart witty comments to drake were so on point and funny has hell. Made my day. When the bank robbery scene happen and her phone rang and she was like so chill about it and said sorry and that she'll just shut it off. Again, shes one of a kind. No one would honestly do that. But her.
Then her being prego :( this was one of those stories where I was really upset that she lost her baby. Yes, its sad. But she was too young and naive to be a mom at that age. No doubt she would step up though as one if she didn't miscarry.
Drake. He was definitely my second favorite character. Not because he was hot thats just a a given plus though. But because he was such a broken character who never let the dark side take over. He fought it. He too like Mia hysterical! He had the perfect come back ever time!
Overall, this story was amazing, funny, light and perfect! I really hope a publisher would publish this book because I want it! I know I can't be the only one either out there!
Pretty friggin' hilarious XD The ending was a bit bleh and cliché, but heyyy! I'm not surprised, and even tho the writing wasn't the best (again it's understandable), the constant laughs made up for it all. Def a fav Watty book ;D
Loved this book! Had me laughing from beginning to end and had the perfect amount of romance. Definitely recommend this book to anyone looking to laugh and fall in love with fictional characters!
I really loved this book, it was for sure a unique one but I think that the things that might shock you reading it were as well the things that make it so fresh, creative, raw and surprising. I will say to you the writing needs a lot of improvement, some facts were reminded in the books several times, I understand that some readers may be a little forgetful, but this wasn't a very long book so I don't see a great need for so many explanatory moments that recall some past events.
Anyway I think the plot makes up for these edition flaws, this book showed me the best comebacks (really THE BEST COMEBACKS) and banter that I have ever the pleasure to read in my life, seriously they were otherworldly, utterly shameless, funny, creative and in at times so hot (you just need to read the title that intrigued me so much and literally made me smirk and you have a notion of what the book might have, and this title wasn't phony publicity you can trust me on that).
I was looking for a book like that for a long time, one that the bad boy is really a bad boy: womanizing, shameless, with no excuses to be who he is, just that he loves to enjoy life, flirt and hook up with girls and drink life from the bottle with his lads (or I didn't say did I? This book is full of british slangs and I loved it so much). Also Drake (the main male character) had some POV's in this book, which was amazing: seeing the other side of the coin. Like him Nate (his best friend, wingman and Mia's brother), has some POV's on the book too, I couldn't say how entertaining that was.
And the other amazing thing that doesn't happens many times is that the girl is as well a bad girl: sarcastic, bad mouthed, spirit free, almost a alcoholic, party girl that over the course of pages - thanks to God (or the devil perhaps hahahahhaha) and thanks to the great mind of Makeandoffer will not be a lamb in wolf's clothing, she won't be a sham or a girl with a needed armor of a party girl because her heart was broken a couple of years ago, she is the big bad wolf in all her shameless being, and that gives us a lot of laughts and a blow in innovation. I'd almost forgotten Mia (the main female character) has a best friend, Lacey who is hilarious and just like her, I don't know who is worst or better between this two girls.
Last but not least, the thing that I really was looking for in a book and never found was the sensational tsunami of pairing a true bad boy with a true bad girl, in all the books that I read there was a belief in equilibrium. If the male character was more sassy and sarcastic the female one would be more shy or more stern and vice versa, or even when the two appeared to be the couple with devious minds in sync at the end you always see them either separated too soon for the really good banter to appear or finding out that one of them was a virgin, or had been abandoned on prom and because of that decided to be bad but deep down was always a lady or a gentleman.
I'm not criticizing these books...I love many of them, I'm just saying that I'm going through a phase that I'm tired of cliches and wanted to be surprised by something new and something that left me without a sense of what would happen on the next page and that was what this book has done on several pages for me, or even when I knew what was going to happen in the next page the banter was so amazing that I couldn't put it down even to eat or sleep and that is saying a lot of me.
Not everything in the plot were flowers anyway, I have to say I didn't like all women minus Mia and Lacey
Regardless of the negative points, in the balance of positive and negative facts in this book, the positives ones won and I wish with all my heart that one day this book might be published so that I'm able to get the paperback version of it located on my bookshelf.
Is it wrong to be in love with a story that the main character curses like a sailor , drinks alcohol like a fish and have a mind of a dirty 18 years fuckboy but with a vagina ? Well yeah probably , but do i give an utter fuck ? HELL NO !
This is how much i love the story , i won't lie to you the story contains stuff that kills a virgin eye and anyone who is under 14 should probably run away with there life ( but ehh lets be real if you are on wattpad you probably lost your eye virginity when you were 12) but anyways the point is the book is so pervy in the best way like. First of all it was SOOO FUNNY !! I swear it puts any comedy stories to shame , I never and I swear I NEVER finished a chapter in this story without Laughing at least once ! ( and bear in mind their is 51 chapter )
And also the was she verbalize everything in the story makes you melt in it , like the kind of story you get into it that for a split of a second you actually forget who you are and live the character's life , it triggers the emotions with in you that makes you want to cry and laugh at the same time. It's so easy going and things are kept real
Another thing that made me want to track makeandoffer down and hug the life out of her is the relationship between her and derek , FINALLY PEOPLE we have a story that the two main characters are not together because they are only sexually attracted to each other or just love at the first sight because when a writer does that she's taking the easy way to write a story . Okay i'll be real. the sex in the story was awesome (no not fifty grey shit that's disgusting) , i have a theory that if you want the sex to be great the relationship between the two characters have to be strong , they have to do stuff with each other ( no not THAT kind of stuff-jesus dirty minds...) the author have to make the readers CARE and then with a good writing techniques the sex will be great That's exactly what makeandoffer did, Mia and Drake get along with each other , they have a chemistry sexually and not sexually , they are both wild and young they both knows how to have fun and when they had sex it was great because WE CARED ! We got to know both Mia and Drake and we supported their relationship . And also a thing that i LOVED in all makeandoffer's stories that she doesn't make her character a love struck ten years old schoolgirl that in a mission to discover her feelings and whatshit , i mean i honestly feel embarrass when a character be all like 'oh i love his eyes that captured me while i was in the dark in his eyes were the sparkle of light and life' , i feel like NO GIRL ! People don't do that ! When you are siting with someone hot guy you either think about hot he is and the things that you want to do to him or talk with him engage in a conversation with him so quit that bella swan shit you are pulling off ! Thankfully makeandoffer doesn't do that ( makeandoffer hates twilight as much as i do so thumbs up !)
All in all if you didn't read this story i have one thing to say to you : WHAT ARE YOU STILL DOING HERE YOU MORON GO READ IT !

REVIEW
"cos' your hands were exploring more than Dora. I wouldn't have minded but Dora had a map and a compass so she knows where she was going. You on the other hand were like a tourist in the center of London. Lost as a fucking fiddle."-Mia Hastings, Illegal my ass
This is my #1 most favorite book in the world and I’m waiting for it to get published so that I can get my hands on the paperback.
Seriously, I don’t have words for this author. She is so amazing.
The book hooked me right in and I literally read the book in one sitting. It’s fast-paced, addictive, humorous and H-O-T!!
There is a reason she has been giving hits after hits for a very long time. Those of you have who have read this story will definitely agree with me.
And others can check out makeandoffer wattpad official page for more information. Even if you disagree with this review, her witty status will definitely crack you up. (which is a good deal. Isn’t it??)
FUCKING BRILLIANT!! Excuse my language xD I have laughed so much throughout this whole book but there were moments when I would have to set down my iPod or I would start to bawl in front of my classmates and they already think I'm a freak as it is :P this took me on a wild ride and I can't help but thank the author for taking me along. This may be a wattpad story but it's the best effing wattpad story I have ever read. I highly recommend this to anyone who uses wattpad and if you don't? GET A FREAKING ACCOUNT XDDD yeah anyhoo! Great story and be prepared to lose a bunch of sleep from not wanting to put it down ;)
No matter how many times I read this story it'll never be enough. It makes me laugh so much!. Mia+Drake passion scenes are just so...WOW!!! It's not only sex people! It's the story itself! Friendships fall apart, lovers hide their relationship, people end up in hospital/in prison...so many things happen! Seriously go add it in your library and READ IT!!!!!!!!!
9/4/15 I just finished reading it for the forth time. My sides still get sore and my eyes tear up from laughing too much.
It's been a long time since I've read this, it was the first ever story that I read on wattpad. I remember forcing myself to stay awake to read as much as I could and then I was reading it again as soon as I woke up the next morning. It was so funny, but also heart wrenching. I loved the romance *heart eyes*. I haven't been on wattpad for a long time, but i think I may re-read this.
Amazing, this book is everything, amusing, romantic, tragic. It's my favorite Wattpad book! The relation between Drake and Mia is so funny, I couldn't stop laughing, of course they have their moments of romantism and they are my favourites!
I absolutely love this book. One of the best books I've ever read. I'm not one to reread books but I am currently reading this for the fourth time. If you want a book that will make you pee yourself laughing, this is the book to read!
My favourite wattled read EVER!! I wish they would publish it, it's hilarious, and one of those books you can re read over and over again. If you're a teenage girl you have to read this book!!!
Plot: Mia and her best friend Lacey went out to a club one night and bumped into Mia's older brother Nate who was making out with a girl. Lacey went crazy on him because Lacey has feelings for Nate and Nate has feelings for her but they aren't together. Mia soon finds out that Drake, Nate's best friend got released from prison and Mia and him always had a flirty but good friendship they never thought of themselves getting with each other but, they both think each other is attractive and they soon got close and when they went up to a cabin with their friends is when it all started it started with them just having makeouts and saying this will never happen again but soon they started to like each other and they thought that Nate would split them if he found out till one night them and their friend were at the bar and Drake and this one girl were flirting and it made Mia mad and out of anger she locked in the freezer by the time he realized that it was Mia who did it everyone left and he was mad and they got into a fight and that was night they took it to another level in their relationship. Soon they only wanted each other. Nate found out and kicked Drake out and Mia went to go see Drake and learn more about him and he showed her why he went to prison and she couldn't handle it and she left and he took the job that his deadbeat dad was offering and this wasn't a legal job. Mia regrets leaving him that day and she tried to find him but couldn't till she went to go to the bank when there was a bank robbery and one of the bank robbers was familiar. Soon she after she went to find Drake and they fight cause Drake is lying to her. And he got mad fast and scared her and she left again and the next day he shows up at her school and he was high off of this pill and only wanted her. They went back to her house and they spent the rest of the day there till Nate got a call from the school about Mia and came home right away and saw Drake and Mia cuddled on the couch and Nate helps Mia with Drake and soon after they put him up in a room and Mia told Nate everything and he wants to help Drake get out of this life and they all helped Drake leave that life and they did.
Characteristics: Drake told no one about his personal life and always slept around but he becomes mature when him and Mia gets together and he opens up more.
Personal Response: This is an amazing book like 10/10 this book I literally couldn't put down it was so good.
Recommendation: I would recommend this to 17 and about cause it has some pretty gruesomeparts but overall good.
I mean it’s a shitty wattpad book but it’s honestly really long too!! The romance is medium-cute and there’s a lot of good banter. It was written like 10 years ago so the use of both r-words is kind of inappropriate. Rereading made me realize the main character and her best friend are chavs. Obviously hate the pregnancy scare trope 🤢. Don’t know if I would recommend, this was more of a smutty nostalgia read from middle school lmfao.
I started to read this book in the popular website called Wattpad (which I love) and up to today I can still remember most of the book (which goes to tell you how awesome it was!). The thing I loved the most about this book though, was the comedy behind it. I mean I do love romance in a book. However, this book had everything in one. There was suspense, drama, comedy, romance, mystery, and lots of craziness. To this the main characters of the book, Mia and Drake took part 100% of the time.
The funny thing about reading this book though, is that once you start reading you are totally hooked. I mean chapter one just leaves you wanting more. Its good from the beginning and its one of the few books I've read that actually is good till the very end. I love the characters and how the author developed their personality soo good, too good!! I mean, they actually sound like real people (if that makes any sense). Although some of the things that happen can be fictional or not (I'm not sure) they're pretty hilarious which just appealed more to me as a reader. I liked how from chapter to chapter the humor doesn't go away but it sometimes leads to unexpected territories or scenes with the mark of Mia or Drake plastered all over it.
Looking forward to having it in my shelf!! For its a must have and a must read.
Wow this book was messed up as hell and I loved every second of it. I was a bit iffy with it at start but I found out I actually kept reading for hours because it was nagging me a lot. It was corny and predictable as hell but OH MY FRIKIN GOSH I COULD NOT STOP. It really had be hooked and I appreciate that the author never glossed over it and all the fucked up shit makes it even better because unlike some "bad boys" who pretend to be cool and apparently have violent backgrounds, Drake really made it seemed real. I swear I sat in my chair with a deer-in-headlights look when they said she was pregnant and I couldn't breathe for a minute when they said she lost the baby. Mia's heartbreak over the garage scene and agony really felt real and you could picture them clearly. OMG ANDREW. I think he's an okay person in the end. Sure, he walked out on Drake and changed him and got him involved with a drug lord who beat him up and threw the girl he loved down the stairs sending her into the hospital and having a miscarriage but ya know. :) He made some fucked up decisions but I respect the hell out of him for not acting like a wuss and trying to take them back. I don't really read such...graphic books but this one had me hooked from the start to finish.
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
OMG this book was awesome! The character's had a lot of issues with themselves, but was also trying to be in tune with their lives. Overall I'd have to say my favorite character is Mia because she has a life that I actually wish i could obtain. She has a lot of freedom and a awesome older brother, i probably wouldn't follow her footsteps and be an excessive drinker but I would enjoy my freedom to the fullest. Because I feel worse than a caged bird with clipped wings within a genies bottle, sometimes I want to breath a little and hang out but believe it or not I've never done anything with my friends without my parent breathing down my throat. While Mia is as free as the birds to the wind.
This is honestly one of my favorite stories. I loved that the bad boy wasn't a multiple millionaire. That character has been used and abused. Mia is just freaking awesome and drake is just wow. Too bad he's a fictional character or I'd search all over the UK to find him. Makeandoffer is an AMAZING writer. All of her stories have two thumbs up from me. She's so talented it's not fair. I highly recommend anything she's written. You will not be disappointed.
I've read "illegal my ass" probably about a dozen times, and the rest of her stories at least once. You will not be disappointed reading anything of her's I can promise you that!
It was the swearing drug and alcohol and the beginning I loved but then is got so slow. Too many Harry Potter references without the character having I love or any thing for the movies or books. And then it jumped for 0-100 real quick. I didn't fall in love with them together. I loved the party teens but together I didn't buy it. I didn't believe he loved her. The characters were were funny. I didn't like the ending and it just added to me believing the hero didn't love the girl. I forgot there names but the heroine there was a flashback of all the times he was there but was ruined though. I have to say this still good I enjoyed a lot of it.
I think this might have been the funniest book I have ever read. I have never read a book that has made me cry with laughter until this one. Although the writing wasn't the best, for a free book on wattpad it was amazing.
Drake and Mia are now my favourite couple, they are so funny ad cute. This book was HOT. No joke. It got me all like "It's getting hot in here, so take off all your clothes..."
Really nice quick and very funny read. Recommend it. I guarantee that you will definitely not be disappointed.
I read this whilst in Nepal and omfg, makeandoffer is my favourite author. I've read all her books and loved them. The main thing I look for in a book is dirtiness. It could be sex, partying, getting drunk or just down right filthy language. This book has all the aspects of dirtiness. Mia and Drake are like the most amazing couple and I screamed when Nate saw the video, I screamed! I shipped Mia and Drake from the start and I was so happy in the end. I loved this book, makeandoffer deserves for all her books to be published. Her writing skills are amazing.
I've always been thankful to those books that made me immediately love the author.
So I would take this opportunity to thank Illegal My Ass for introducing me to makeandoffer. She's one of the reasons why I loved my Wattpad days so much. I got bored cause I've already devoured all her stories.
I fucking wish she have this power to right unlimited books cause I really I adore her that much. I love her sense of humor. I can relate to her. She's not one of those writers who makes cliche girls, she write those "I don't fucking give a shit cuz I'm confident" girls.
I don't know how many times I've read this one! It makes me laugh so much, the characters are just brilliant and hilarious. This one book should definitely be published and sold in book stores! Whenever I read a sad book, I go back to this to cheer me up. The plot twist in the middle had meat the edge of my seat, but it's worth the read. One of my all time favourites - a great wattpad book. I can just imagine this becoming a movie - makeandoffer would become a writing sensation.
This is one of the best books on Wattpad, and I love it!! The amount of times I've read it, yet still laughed even though I know what's coming is unbelievable. I love Mia's character and Drake's as well, but my favourite character is definitely Lacey. She's so funny and unpredictable and her and Nate's relationship makes me laugh a lot. This book definitely deserves to be published!!
This was a very entertaining read for me. Makeandoffer always writes very interesting stories, and this one does not disappoint. Although there are minor plot holes, they don't distract from the story. I was also quite impressed how the story could be so humorous one moment, yet serious the next. This story reminded me yet again how talented a writer this author is!
Honestly I strongly recommend this book to anyone interested in a funny book. I swear I must have re-read this book a hundred time. It's hilarious and tbh after reading it I wanted her life *insert crying* Also after reading this book I decided I would read her others and let me tell you THIS AUTHOR IS AMAZINGGGG
I really liked the story because at some points it was really predictable and at other it really wasn't. I burst out laughing a few times, earning a few worried looks but this was just a great book. I'm glad I read it!! =)
