Marquita Valentine - Seducing the Billionaire's Daughter review

 
SEDUCING THE BILLIONAIRE'S DAUGHTER by Marquita Valentine
Release Date: May 23rd
Genre: Contemporary Romance
 
 
 
 
My Review

I thought this was a cute, very quick read. At first I wasn't sure what was going on. But it wasn't long before I caught on. (I didn't realize before I read it that this was the 3rd book in the series) I typically like reading in order, but now I'll have to go back! The chemistry between Sawyer and London was palpable through the pages. They had fun together and they could be themselves around each other. No pretending. London was from a wealthy family and she didn't always know when a guy was into for her or for her name. I enjoyed the banter between London and Sawyer. I was lost in this story and it was over too quickly!



 
Blurb: 
Despite the prestige of his last name, Sawyer Taggart clawed his way to the top. As the illegitimate son the Taggarts can no longer ignore, he wants what's rightfully his--control of the security firm that's worth billions. But first, he has to take out the competition. London Montgomery refuses to use her last name to get ahead. As the only girl in the trio of billionaire Montgomery siblings, she's a prime target for fortune hunters. To keep herself safe and please her family, she stays on the straight and narrow... until she meets Sawyer Taggart. No matter how many roadblocks she throws in his way, the darkly seductive businessman continues to ruthlessly pursue her.
Now London has to decide if she'll risk it all to be with Sawyer, or choose a man her family approves of... In the meantime, you can read: Seducing the Billionaire's Wife Seducing the Billionaire's Brother

Marquita Valentine - Royal Affair review

This is the second book in the Royals in Exile series. I adored Royal Scandal and couldn't wait to get more from the Sinclair siblings.  The majority of the background on this family was found in Royal Scandal, so I do recommend reading that one first, but this one dives into Charlotte's life.  I enjoyed getting 1/2 of the twins' story, but yet getting to see Gen, too. I felt bad for Charlotte and knew her family loved her, but hated how she was treated at times. I wanted her to get her love story! 
The reader immediately sees into Charlotte's head and life as her story begins. I was sucked into her world and felt for this princess.  Her family had been dealt with a tragedy and even years later, was still experiencing the aftermath.  I loved the way Brooks came rushing into her life and watching this wallflower develop into so much more.  I was caught up in their affair and thoroughly enjoyed watching them fall into the relationship they didn't plan for! Even though Brooks Walker wasn't a man liked by Charlotte's siblings, he treated her differently and with care and she soon found herself falling for him. I wanted to cheer them on and loved the way he was with her.  It was a fun, sexy, swoony book that I couldn't put down. It was full of the feels and I adored Brooks.  Their story was easy to get lost in and I highly recommend it! 


**ARC provided by NetGalley for my honest review**



A sheltered princess goes wild—and makes the best mistake of her life—when she falls for a roguish reporter in this fun, sexy romance from the bestselling author of Royal Scandal.

Online muckraker Brooks Walker has a reputation for exposing the political elite. Now he’s set his sights on the Sinclair siblings, who’ve been embroiled in their fair share of drama ever since their exile to North Carolina. But Brooks has never been afraid to get his hands dirty—until he meets a royal wallflower at a charity ball who makes him reconsider everything. Is Brooks feeling guilty because he knows all the sordid details of her family’s history? Or because he’s putting their relationship first, before his journalistic integrity?

As the “spare” twin, Princess Charlotte has always been the responsible one. So when her sister finally agrees to fulfill her duty as queen, Charlotte gives herself permission to break a few rules by flirting with the very off-limits CEO of Walker Media. Brooks is the worst sort of man to start an affair with, but Charlotte just can’t help it. The trouble is, since she’s no good at playing games, soon she’s tiara over heels in love. And when Brooks comes clean, Charlotte must decide whether his confession is worth a royal pardon.

Marquita Valentine - Royal Scandal review

sbpr-royalscandal-rb

Title: Royal Scandal

Author: Marquita Valentine

Publication Date: January 23rd, 2017

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Royal Scandal, a sexy all-new STANDALONE from Marquita Valentine is now LIVE!!!

Fairy tales do come true—and so do tabloid scandals! New York Times bestselling author Marquita Valentine kicks off a juicy contemporary romance series with a novel about a prince whose best-laid plans go deliciously awry when he marries the maid next door.
Forced to flee to the United States with his siblings after their parents’ assassination, Crown Prince Colin Sinclair takes it upon himself to become the caretaker of his family while hiding out near Charlotte, North Carolina. But after a decade in hiding, the secret’s out and Parliament demands that Colin wed a princess of their choosing. Unwilling to play their game, Colin decides to marry an American instead, and he has the perfect candidate in mind.
As a home-service professional, Della Hughes doesn’t believe in storybook endings. But when her best friend and secret crush reveals that he’s a flesh-and-blood prince, she doesn’t know what to think. Still, she’ll do anything for Colin, including becoming his wife—in name only, of course. But when their plans to stay purely platonic go by the wayside, their fake honeymoon turns all too real. After a week of white-hot nights, Della can no longer deny her feelings—not with a happily ever after so tantalizingly close.

My Review:

 It took a few chapters in to get the story line going, but it was a good and juicy way to lay things out! I was hooked! Aren't marriages of convenience the best?! Yep, I think so too! I loved the banter between Della and Colin. And I loved her sense of humor in their situation. I also enjoyed how the chapters flipped from their POVs.

Colin is hiding a few BIG things from his best friend, Della! When things start to shift for his family and he has to make a rash decision, he has to come clean to her, mostly. He trusts her with his family secrets and with his boys.  However, he never specifies more about the kiddos to her.  But their wedding requires them to take a honeymoon so that no one is suspicious.  Being married in name only is difficult, especially when both parties have a yearning for the other. Life for Della and Colin definitely had its up and downs but they had each other's backs and they supported one another. This book is sweet, sexy and was an all around enjoyable read.
