Oh, how much I love serials that really are after my own heart! This one is just perfect. Come book buddies, and meet BILLIONAIRE WITH A TWIST, by Lila Monroe.
MY OPINION
I love it
when a story has the right mix of the good stuff: exciting dialogues, warm
characters, fun ideas, sexy romance and a plot worth believing in.
It has that
kind of prose that engages and makes you laugh with its inventiveness. To me, it's hilariously obvious how much fun
the author had when she was writing those witchy, witty dialogues between
mother and daughter.
Ally is a
smart, driven girl who's intent on proving her worth in the advertisement
field. After a really fun and sexy first chapter, I found myself falling in
love with her with and her problems. Now, her next problem slash opportunity
comes wrapped in the hot, sweet and noble shape of Hunter Knox.
Oh, I even
love his name! He's so delectable.
Fighting to
keep a professional relationship with him, Ally focuses on getting the perfect
idea that launches a modern and reliable image for his bourbon company. I was
really hooked on the history and management of this distillery as well as what
it means for Hunter to succeed.
There are
awkward moments between Ally and Hunter, moments of emotional connection, and
hot times too. I relished each and every one of them. Of course, that
cliffhanger was enough to make me sputter a few curse words like a pirate
without rum. I need my second part now, arrrrr.

I’m on a tightrope trying to keep my career from crashing out like a coed after a dozen jaeger shots, and I’ve made it clear to Hunter, our sexy one-night fling can't be repeated.

Part Three releases September 30, 2015
Warning: love on the rocks.
Sexy bourbon billionaire Hunter Knox hired me to turn around the failing family business, but I wound up losing him the company he loves. Now I have to make it right - which won't be easy when he's off the grid at a cabin in the woods, drinking himself into a sexy rugged stupor.
But if there's one thing I know, it's that Hunter is worth a shot. Or two. He better line them up, because after tonight, I'm never drinking again.
READ AN EXCERPT
We were both whispering. I wasn’t sure why; the house was so big that we might as well have been in another county as far as the staff were concerned. But the darkness and the secrecy and the soft touches somehow made this moment illicit and stolen and not to be spoken aloud.
“I trust you,” I murmured.
There was a pause as Hunter took in my words. “Thank you,” he finally said.
My hand was still on his. As if they had a will of their own, my fingers began to stroke his palm—I blushed, glad that the poor light would hide it, and pulled away under the pretense of selecting a snack.
The tin was small, but it held a solid assortment of sweets, dried jerky, and home-made trail mix. I chose a chocolate in a bright green foil and unwrapped it, the foil rustling like a secret waiting to be told. When I bit down, a sweet cognac liquor burst across my taste buds, and I couldn’t keep from groaning in ecstasy.
Hunter laughed.
“Hey, you try eating this and not expressing your appreciation!” I shot back at him in a whisper, waving the chocolate in his face.
He raised an eyebrow at me, and then he bit right down on the chocolate in my hand, his soft lips just moistening the tips of my fingers.
I froze.
His rakish grin set my blood on fire as he leaned forward and carefully licked a smudge of chocolate from my thumb.
Calling all doctors, calling all doctors, Allison Bartlett’s heart has just stopped cold.
