Hero – Includes billionaire and other filthy rich that reflect the billionaire archetype
Heat Factor: It’s a medium roast
Character Chemistry: They click pretty much instantly but I’m not sure it’s much of a chemical reaction for the reader.
Plot: Seraphina has a TBI and a lot of baggage. Milo is a CEO/Scientist man who is not very nice and evidently very lonely. They fall in love.
Overall: if you saw the gossip columns featuring Elon Musk and Grimes, and you were like, “that’s so hot”, you will probably like this book. Or if you love a really paternalistic hero.
Bishop Brothers, Book #3
Review of Bishop Brothers #1, Bishop Brothers #2
Heat Factor: The sex is very complicated on account of the power dynamics and the lies
Character Chemistry: I bought it
Plot: Emma is a plant in Connor’s office, so she’s a lying liar. Connor is just a billionaire trying not to bone his employee and failing. Can you guess what happens next?
Overall: My HR brain was screaming, but also somehow I was shockingly sympathetic to these protagonists.
Heat Factor: Closed door, but they do openly discuss their kinks.
Character Chemistry: Cute.
Plot: Jay tries to ask Isla out, but kind of accidentally hires her as his assistant instead. Turns out, she’s really good at being an assistant.
Overall: This is a very soft, gentle romance with soft, gentle characters.
The Game Maker, Book #2
Review of The Game Maker, Book #1
Heat Factor: They have amazing kinky hate sex energy
Character Chemistry: The “I hate you but I really want to jump you” dynamic is EXCEPTIONAL
Plot: She needs money to stay on the run from her serial killer husband, so she steps in for her friend as a very expensive escort for a night. He is bowled over by her breath of fresh air in his luxurious but monotonous life, but he also thinks everything she says is a lie. So obviously they fall in love.
Overall: Combo of “What did I even just read?” and “That was amazing.”
Fake It Till You Make It, Book #1
Heat Factor: Sure, I guess
Character Chemistry: Emotional chemistry? I’m not even convinced they had sexual chemistry.
Plot: Woman goes home for vacation, boss follows, and nobody talks to anybody about anything important so everything hits the fan
Overall: I finished this to satisfy my rage and for no other reason
