I truly love this book just wish the next book was coming out before January. I may have to re-read this again before then. I loved the interaction between the main characters though they were from two different backgrounds they found a common ground. The book does somewhat end on a cliff hanger. The story flowed very nicely, the characters were well developed. I would recommend this book to a reader looking for a good romance. I am anxious to read the next book in this series. I have not read anything from this author and this was a very pleasant captavating read I had a hard time putting the book down.

I am going to be straight up honest, which I always try to be in my reviews, I was drawn in by the blurb but did not have high hopes. I have read some cheesy books with the word Billionaire in the title and I was worried that I was going down the same path again.

I got started and in the first few pages I thought I might be right. Then it really got going and I got sucked into Lana’s story so deeply that when I got to the last page, my brain registered that it was the last page, but my finger kept touching the right side of the screen because it insisted that there was going to be more, that I needed more of this story.

I need the next book already.

I loved it.I loved Lana, I felt like we were starting to get into Blake and who he was, I loved Lana’s friend Bill(ie). We all need a friend who can be straight up crazy fun but then has our back like no one else does.

I hate Victoria.

I am not saying who she is, just that I hate her and I really hope she gets what she deserves.

And……

I can’t say what this one part is about but I am dying to find out what Lana does. The wheels in my head are spinning with the facts I know and mingling with what possibly could be coming next.

The blurb says erotic romance, and it is hot, but personally, I like more story with my erotic romances, which is why the other titles with Billionaire in them had me rolling my eyes. The Billionaire Banker completely delivered with a story line that I was completely absorbed in and would have read even without the hot scenes.

I loved it.

Someone better mark me down for the tour for the next book because my hand will be out.

Thank you so much to the author and to the tour host for sending me an ARC.

i hate the POV in this book . it's like a funky 3rd person and it's driving me nuts.. it's kinda feels clunky in this kinda book. harry potter meets a cock... i dunno just doesnt sit right

this story is told. in such a way it's very freakin hard to read. but if you make it to the second book she settles into a reasonable interesting writing style that fits with the story. dont get me wrong people can pull off 3rd person but she for some reason in this story does not. but the plot itself is so damn interesting you kinda want to know what happens. so i started the second book and im liking it. the first im gonna have to get a low score with the warning that if you run across the second book .. id read it cos that's where the story really starts.

Great book, great characters, and I can't wait for the next book, and how he's apparently cold, and I hope he learns about what Victoria did!

This book begins when Lana is out to dinner with her boss hoping to get him to agree to an deal she has to offer. See Lana is a virgin, and her mother is dying of cancer. Her mother on has a few weeks left so Lana is desperate to get money to have her go to America for treatments. So she heard rumors that her boss pays some woman good money to have sex with him. Now she wants a chance to offer this to him. But while out to dinner she sees a strange man staring at her, and the instant her eyes lock with his everything changes. This man named Blake offers her double what her boss was going to pay for a three month contract. And Lana agrees. Once it all starts though Lana has to worry about losing her heart to this man, and she has to worry about all of the horrible people he has in his family as well.

I'm not a fan of this book at all. I loved the idea of the story at first. But I really hated the fact that Blake was already promised to marry someone else, and I hated how he wouldn't be man enough to stand up to his family for what he really wants. That just drove me crazy. Not only that I feel like he treats Lana badly, just because he's trying to get her out of his system. It was all so stupid in my opinion. I did like Lana though, and because of that I'm kinda interested to see what happens to her. But I really didn't like how it ended. And I hate how Victoria meddled in things it just make it much more frustrating.
