Billionaire with a Twist 3 + giveaway


I love it when I reach the conclusion to a wonderful serial. And this is one of the best I've read. Come and check it out.


MY OPINION of part 3


Oh, I'm so full of giggling bubbles right now. This is the perfect ending to such a funny, vibrant, creative and sexy story. Forget about billionaires. This is about a brave woman and a hot, honest, loveable man who together create a wonderful magic around an old bourbon company.

I fell in love not only with the characters, stubborn and so human and warm, but with the whole operation that surrounds the ad campaign, the bourbon legacy and the meaning of fighting for what you believe in and care for.

The third and final part is like revenge and justice wrapped up into one beautifully satisfying package that's made sweet by Hunter and Ally coming together, finally finding their right moment in between betrayal, pain, hope and denial. Ah, the feelings, and oh the steamy, romantic times. I purely swooned over all of it. I love this author's witty, energetic writing style, and I only ask for more of this kind of smart stories from her in the future.


Billionaire With a Twist

Part Three
Series: Billionaire With a Twist #3
Author: Lila Monroe
 Release Date: September 30, 2015
AMAZON US / UK

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 a lovely EXCERPT


Hunter brought the cold glass bottle to my lips, and I closed my eyes to better appreciate the flavor.

“Mmmmm.” Hints of caramel, a touch of cinnamon, and was that…nutmeg? I licked my lips. “Tastes like autumn.”

“Next,” Hunter said softly. There was a clink as he set down the bottle, and another as he picked the second one up. Then that cool glass was against my warm mouth again, and I shivered as I felt his breath ghost against the back of my neck. I could practically feel the heart radiating off his body behind me. A drop of condensation slipped down the neck of the bottle, rolling down the fevered skin of my neck.

Oh, right, the beer. I took a gulp, hoping the cool liquid would calm my disordered thoughts. No such luck—but it was delicious, strongly hoppy this time, notes of lime and orange and vanilla, with a peppery finish. “Damn, that’s good. It’s like spring!”

“I’m glad you like it,” Hunter murmured. His arm encircled my waist—no, he was just reaching for another bottle, no, that was his other hand, this one was definitely resting on my waist, lightly, just above my hipbone.

I didn’t dare open my eyes, for fear I would find I was only dreaming.

“Another?” Hunter invited.

“Yes please.” My voice was a whisper, hoarse with desire I hoped he couldn’t hear.

And there it came, his gentle hands guiding it to my mouth, the smooth glass with its beads of moisture kissing my skin, and that that ambrosia sliding slowly down my throat: brown sugar and anise and a hint of…chocolate.

“Ooooooh,” I moaned in appreciation. I licked my lips.

And heard a sharp intake of breath from Hunter. “You like that?” he whispered.

“So much,” I replied, feeling the heat in my body gather itself tight and low.

Even with my eyes closed I was vividly aware of how close he was standing to me; I could smell him, hear each breath he took. His hand on my waist seemed to grip a fraction tighter, wrinkling the fabric of my dress—the hand holding the bottle seemed to tremble slightly, I could feel his breath ruffling my hair as he bent closer, those warm lips only inches from—

My eyes burst open and I almost leapt away from him. We didn’t have time for sexual tension! That was what had gotten us into trouble in the first place. My mind fluttered rapidly over possible topics of redirection.

It was difficult. It mostly wanted to think of Hunter shirtless.

Maybe pantsless too.

Yeah….definitely pantsless.

Crazy about Billionaire with a Twist 2 + giveaway


The fun and the angst continues with BILLIONAIRE WITH A TWIST, part 2! Book buddies, I just need the next part like oxygen.



MY OPINION

Joyous and bittersweet, this part made me smile non-stop and it also squeezed a couple of emotional tears out of me. It was exhilarating to share that moment of artistic spark with Ally when she got her idea for the bourbon campaign. I loved that moment.

She and Hunter are going through a rough patch, she's reeling from jealousy and constantly battling unfair treatment at work so her emotions boil to a poisonous level. That made me cringe in fear of what would happen to her because of her outburst!

About Hunter, I  think this man is seriously hot, not only for his looks, but also because of his family legacy and the hardworking love he holds for his land and company.

In this second part, there is loads of fun, heat, creativity and backstabbing too. I loved the steamy times, the very engaging work Ally does, the allure around the historical and human meaning around the Knox bourbon company, and all the misunderstandings and tribulations.

That's why that ending was so heart-breaking. I can't imagine how they will recover from that punch in the gut, but I certainly want to find out.

READY FOR AN EXCERPT?


My finger hovered over the button as I considered what to send him next.

I briefly considered a topless pic before discarding that idea; if someone from work ever found our dirty texts, I could claim someone else had sent them from my phone, but how that hypothetical someone had got their hands on a topless shot of me would be much harder to explain away.

I filed that idea away for a day in the future when I worked at a company where my colleagues weren’t untrustworthy sexist shitheads, and sent ‘miss u’ instead.

I immediately regretted it.

Not because it wasn’t true, but because it wasn’t sexy. And since our night together, Hunter and I had been keeping our conversations strictly sexy, and far, far away from feelings territory.

The phone rang.

Shit, had that been too much? Was he calling to say I should back off? Had he rethought things completely?

Calm the fuck down, I told myself sternly. You sent him a two word text, not a dozen roses. It’s not a big deal.

I answered the phone. “Hey.”

“Hey, Ally.” I could hear the smile in his voice. “It’s good to actually talk to you. I’ve missed you too.”

I let out a breath I hadn’t realized I was holding.

“So, how’s it going over there?”

“Oh, you know, a complete madhouse. So, the usual.”

“Oh yeah?”

“My boss is calling every fifteen minutes, the editing team can’t find any of the stable footage, Sandra keeps having to ice her hand to stop it cramping up…” I trailed off, and then laughed. “How do you do that?”

He sounded confused. “Do what?”

“Make it all seem so manageable. So okay. Just by listening.”

“One of my secret ninja powers,” he informed me, deadpan.

I raised an eyebrow. “Got any others you’d care to show me?”

“Oh, I’ve shown them to you,” he drawled, and even though it was only his voice over a phone line, I blushed fire-engine red. “And you’ve shown me a few as well.”

I eyed the door, toying with an idea. I couldn’t hear anyone rushing my way with an urgent development…I rose swiftly and locked it. “Care to see if those powers work over the phone?”

I knew exactly the face he would be making right now, that slow-spreading sweet honey grin as he took in the meaning of my words. “I surely would.”

Give me a Billionaire with a twist + giveaway


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.

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.
