If you are looking for a feel good romance look no further than Fearless in Love. Since this is book three of the Maverick Billionaires I was very familiar with Matt and his situation. He has full custody of Noah, a rambunctious five year old. Matt is a very picky and over protective father. It has made keeping nannies a challenge to say the least.
Ari works for Daniel in one of his stores. With the help of scholarships she has beaten the odds of a foster child. Her degree in Child Development makes her a great choice for Noah’s nanny.
Matt has been warned off of Ari by all of the Mavericks. Matt knows he should stay away. Ari has been warned off of Matt by her friends. Ari knows she needs to stay away. Knowing and doing are two different things.
Fearless in Love is a beautiful romance, but it is so much more. Fearless in Love is a story of acceptance. Fearless in Love is a story of personal growth.
Matt has never dealt with his past. It affects his present. It affects how he deals with Noah. Ari carries baggage of her past. Ari still holds out hope her brother, Gideon will return. Ari is determined to have a happily ever after.
Fearless in Love is full of drama. Fearless in Love made me smile. Fearless in Love made me cry. For a few pages, I even screamed. I really, really don’t like Irene. I bet you won’t either. But the ending——loved it!!!!

What a great story! I really enjoyed reading Matt and Ari's story. They both come from similar childhoods that both keep them apart but pull them together at the same time. I know that explanation is confusing but Matt doesn't think he's good enough, while Ari always has her bags packed ready to move on.

Ari is hired to be Matt's nanny for his little boy Noah. Noah's mother left him with Matt when he was just a month old. She wasn't ready to be a mother because it wasn't fun. We meet her one time during the book and I'm glad that she isn't in Noah's life, one of her statements was "the baby shower was fun, but all the gifts were for Noah." That right there told me she made the right decision in leaving him with his father, she shouldn't be a mother. When Ari comes into his life, its like he became better balanced and while he was always happy, Ari just seemed to fill a void. Ari fits in with the Mavericks and is close to one of Matt's "brothers" Daniel, who actually recommended her for the position. I was so happy to see Matt and Ari get their HEA, after their childhoods they deserve all the happiness. While reading this story I wasn't sure if I wanted to laugh, grab a tissue, or just smile. Noah is full of energy and the chemistry between Ari and Matt is unmistakable, even his sweetness when he decides he wants to help Ari find her brother Gideon whom she hasn't seen since she was 8 and he enlisted in the Army. I'm so glad when he shows up and we know that he's ok. Such a good story, I highly recommend it!

Received ARC in exchange for honest review.

Sometimes when you read books in a series, you kind of expect a little inconsistency in how well they are written. Well, you won't find that problem in the Maverick Billionaires series. The 3rd book is just as good as Breathless and Reckless in Love.

Each of the Mavericks have their own strong, distinctive personalities. Reading about how important Noah was to Matt, and how committed Matt was to taking care of him was really endearing.

The sexual tension between Matt and Ari was off the charts, yet you knew their relationship was so much more.

I definitely recommend this book. It was almost too good to put down but I needed to sleep.

I received this book as an ARC in exchange for an honest review. I was not required to provide a positive review and I did not receive compensation for my review.

Fearless in Love is the third book in Bella Andre & Jennifer Skully's Maverick Billionaires series, and this was one I couldn't wait for. Matt intrigued me from the first time he was introduced and when he saw Ariana for the first time, I couldn't help but be intrigued by her like he was. Ari was sweet and enchanting and Matt was sexy as hell, throw in an adorable five year old and you've got a great story. Neither character had an easy past and they both had issues to work through in order to come together in love. I found myself falling for both Matt and Noah, just like Ari did. This book hooked me from page one and I didn't put it down until the book was done. I didn't just enjoy this book, I devoured it and will be reading it again in the future. I give this book 5 stars and I look forward to more in this series.

 I like this book ok. Just as anyone who is a fan of bella andre, this book has all of her signature. Hot alpha male, sexual tension, dragging wording and a simple story line. Sexy. 

And like many bella andre previous books, i loke it ok.

Mat Treemont is our third Maverick billionaire, he rose from nothing in a ceedy Chicago neighbourhood to become a massive billionaire and has created his own company that invents robots. Mat is bright and seems to have it all including Noah his five-year-old son, however Matt still struggles with his past after being bullied by all the kids and his own parents. When he employs Ariana Jones to become the new nanny to Noah, he finally starts to think that maybe he can finally have true love and realises what he's missing. Ariana Jones cannot believe her luck when she is offered the job as a nanny to Noah, she starts to shower all the love and affection on him and now are in turn becomes attached to her as well. She realises how overprotective that is of his son and is determined to try and allow the little boy more freedom and show Matt his capabilities. However, can Matt get over his past enough to let her in and realise that she could be much more than just a nanny to the family

Another enjoyable story in The Mavericks series. This one featuring Tech Billionaire Matt, his adorable son Noah and Nanny Ariana.

The story itself was sweet, with a little angst and very easy to read it also had a few hot moments and can easily be read as a standalone. Although the series as a whole is worth reading, especially if your a fan of either of these authors or their other works.

First, I want to say that I got a copy as an ARC, but I wasn't paid, and this book was actually on my "To Read" and I had to cancel my pre-order ;)

Now, on to the review:

You'd think, by the description, that it would be the "billionaire has kid, can't handle kid, hires nanny," but while, yes, that's sort of what happens, Matt is actually almost a helicopter father and very protective.

Ariana (Ari as she prefers to be called) comes from a broken home, and ended up in the foster system. She lost contact with her brother, who went into the military when she was a child.

Matt helps her find her brother, and there are some heartbreaking stories to follow with that, and Ari helps Matt realize that he's holding on too tight with his son.

It was a quick read, not because it was short, but because the story was so good!

May come back to it. The writing threw me off a bit 😬
