review 1: What a bargain collection I delayed writing my review until I had devoured all of the books. Devour them I did, yes there were some I enjoyed a lot more than others but the collection as a whole is not to be sniffed at. There are some that are stand alone novels and there are others that are the beginning of a story but all are well worth a read on their own merits.The Billionaires MuseThis was the opening book of the collection and, although I did enjoy it, I will openly admit that I found the dialogue, at times, to be cringe worthy for want of any better term. The leads in this I found difficult to connect with, however the story itself was intriguing and seeing the relationship unfold between them was interesting. The use of art was an inspired idea and this was saved t... morehe book from being forgettable.The CEO and the Girl from the Coffee ShopThis book is the 1st in a series and the second part, The Pleasure in Surrender, will be available in November. However this could easily be read as a stand alone in my opinion. The story centres around Beth who is struggling to pay her way through college while working in a coffee shop where the highlight of her day is when Gabriel comes in to buy his coffee. On hearing her problems he presents her with an offer that she cannot refuse. Yes it is a story of the billionaire and his maid but add the steamy scenes and it is a good little read!Yes, Mr CollinsThis I will be honest with you was one of my least favourite books of the collection. The story just didn’t connect with me. You have the strict, almost too strict, Mr Collins and Natasha his secretary who quite simply I wanted to slap and say ‘get a grip, are you stupid’. The use of the terms pet and prey just were not my idea of a romance, that being said this is my personal opinion and other will like this story. It just wasn’t for me.My Rockstar BillionaireThis story was a good one but very obviously the beginning of a story. Belle, who is on a working vacation, and who has had her confidence knocked by a cheating ex meets the gorgeous Ricky and begins a passionate holiday romance with him with no expectations beyond the here and now. However it is clear that Ricky is holding some secret back. That secret alas we are not to discover in this instalment, we can only guess from the title what that may be! Guess if you really want to know you’d have to wait for instalment number to like me!Heidi and the KaiserThis was another book that I enjoyed. You have a young woman working in a job she hates in an industry that she loves. In steps the enigmatic Warren Kaiser who promotes her from her go-fer position to his professional and personal secretary. Mr Kaiser is a strict man with special tastes but Heidi finds herself falling for him just the same. However with the introduction of a person she knew and who had stolen her ideas and is now passing them off as their own work can their fragile relationship survive what could be seen as Heidi’s jealousy? Can Mr Kaiser forget himself and fall for Heidi? Well you’ll have to read it to find out!Gloria’s SecretGloria is a woman with a 15 year old secret. She is also afraid of losing control of her life and falling for someone. This ideal is shattered upon meeting Jaime Zander! It was a story that had me gripped from the beginning to the end. I will not say too much more as it would give away too much of the story, needless to say I was devastated to see that this was the beginning of a story and that I would have to wait until part way through November to see how their story concludes in Gloria’s Revenge which I will definitely be reading! Especially after what I am expecting in relation to the prospective new partner of the sleazy Victor!Make You MineAgain this was one of my favourites of the collection. I am unsure if this is a stand alone or if their story will continue in another book, either way I loved it! You have Daryl who works for an exclusive matchmaking service who is close to losing her job when in walks Tevin, a man who could be the answer to all her prayers! Just which ones!? He agrees to sign with the matchmaking service with the proviso that for each event he attends she grants him one date. What is this man hiding? Can she resist? Does she want to? Or will her past be the thing getting in their way? Read the book for a steamy ride that surely will not disappoint, it certainly didn’t disappoint me!Trapped into MarriageThis was one of the books I was provided and ARC of and is one of my favourites of the collection. You have a returning soldier returning to claim his love, Keyonna, only to have had her move on. To try and convince him of this fact she throws herself at Nick Vitale who, unbeknownst to her has a fiancée that he desperately needs in order to secure his inheritance. This is a true Harlequin type romance and, due to these being a secret passion of mine, I loved this book. It may be too cliché for some but this is pure romantic escapism!!The Art of Catching a Greek BillionaireThis again is a book I received and ARC copy of and the main reason I read the others in the collection! This is an author I adore and her novels always have me either sobbing or laughing, at times both! This start to a series was no exception! Mairi is a girl who grew up knowing what she wants! What she wants is the HAE, the fact that she wants that with a Greek man, who needs to be a billionaire to boot, is all down to Harlequin romances that she was read as a young girl! I think we can all relate although my wish was always a handsome Sheikh or a hunky Italian! In walks two men who both fit the bill! The dreamy Damen Leventis and Ioniko Vlahos. So long as Mairi follows her lessons, which are the headers for the chapters complete with fantastic editor notes, what can go wrong! Answer, a lot in a small space of time! After the ending of this I cannot wait for book 2, The Art of Trusting a Greek Billionaire, coming in November! Another fantastic book by Ms Tee.What He WantsThis is the beginning of a set of 4 books that can be bought as a bundle (indeed I have already one clicked!). It is the beginning of a story of Bristol meeting up again with the man who many years ago she called uncle Shane (no relation!). There is an attraction there but with his sexual preferences frightening her will she go back for more?All in all this a great bundle and, for the price that it is, simply a must buy for anyone who loves romance with steam included!! There is hours and hours of reading here and I do not doubt that there will be something here to captivate everyone.
review 2: This set as a whole has allot of Steam, Romance, and Kink!!! Here's a review of some of our favorites.The Billionaire's Muse By Ava LoreThis was the first in this boxed set and the longest taking up 20% of the book. When Sadie accidently destroys a priceless vase Billionaire Malcom Ward has a very unique way of getting her to pay him back, by being his Muse. He's a little bit crazy, or at least that's what he wants the world to think, but when she sees the man behind the mask is it someone who she wants to be more than a muse for?Good read it kept you guessing as to what would happen. Loved the mystery involved in the story and Malcom's ecentric ways. Sadie had a big heart even though she had a hard past and I enjoyed seeing her get through Malcom's B.S. and figuring out what was really going on.The CEO and the Girl from the Coffee Shop by Terry TowersShe'd been flirting with the hottie businessman Gabriel for months and when he gets her to tell him her troubles Beth gets an offer she can't refuse. Now with working and living at his home can she really fight the attraction.This one was told from both POV's which is definitely my prefrence because it allows you to see what both characters are thinking. Loved how Gabriel wasn't afraid to go after what he wanted or tell Beth what he was feeling. And Beth's trust to allow things to go with the flow even when she wasn't sure was fun to read.Trapped into a Marriage by Dez BurkeKeyonna gets a shock when her boyfriend from two years ago suddenly come back from his tour of duty and proposes to her. Two years of not hearing from him and she realized she never loved him, if only she could convince him of that. A spur of the moment kiss to another man to help prove her point and she gets more than she bargined for. Nick has had an interest in Keyonna for months from the first time he saw her, but because he's engaged to another woman, a marriage of convience so he can inheret billion's he can't act on it. Until her little stunt nearly ruins everything.This was another one told from both POV's. I had fun seeing Nick's growth throughout the story and when he finally understood his feeling how he wasn't afraid to admit them over and over as long as it took for Keyonna to believe him. Keyonna's character was great fun to read about from how she sees situations to what she did at certain times. I loved that even when she was unhappy with how things went she didn't check her morals at the door and go off and do something terribly stupid. The Art of Catching a Greek Billionaire by Marian TeeThis one is actually the first in a series. Mairi grew up not listening to fairy tales from her Aunts but Romance novels. She knows what she wants and will do what it takes to meet her dream Greek Billionaire. Finally in Greece working at a private school for girls she has her chance to meet her man. But what happens when things don't go quite like the stories?Mairi is a dreamer and I loved that she was willing to go after her dream no matter how crazy it seemed to anyone else. When she meets not one but two men she makes a choice but when things don't go the way she expects she doesn't just run off to the other guy to makes things work. But when the one she wants trys to get her to compromise her morals what will she do? Can't wait to find out where this series goes. less
