my ARC Review of The Taming of the Billionaire by JESSICA CLAIRE

This was a sweet and funny Billionaires and Bridesmaids book. The MC in this book are Edie and Magnus. Edie is one of Gretchen’s oldest and dearest friends. (Gretchen is from Beauty and the Billionaire-book 2). Magnus is this tech billionaire who is way Hawt and Sexy. Edie meets Magnus at Gretchen’s pre wedding dinner party where Magnus was a TOTAL jerk. He , Levi and Asher made some pretty jerky comments which Edie overheard and it fired her up and she was able to take her slight revenge later at the dinner. Edie does not like Magnus nor does he like her at this time in the book. We come to see Edie has an injury to her knee which happened 5 years prior and it prevents her from walking well. Her sister Bianca tagged along to this event and ended up ensnaring Magnus’s younger brother Levi’s heart in her trap.

As we read , we see that Edie is a feline behaviorist  aka bonafide cat lady. Remember that, it’s important. Magnus was so cocky and thought he knew everything about cats and “cat ladies”. That is going to come back to bite him. Edie and Magnus did not get along in ANY SHAPE of imagination. She left the party thinking he thought horrible things about her while Magnus to Levi she was “cute”. Levi wants to see Bianca, states he is in “love” with her and needs Magnus’s help to keep Edie bust while he gets to know Bianca better. Magnus knows this is going to be hard since he gave Edie a rather rough time at the party and Levi was quite the jerk as well. What can he do that would win over Edie and get her to take him seriously? Edie let it be known he was “an arrogant billionaire. Levi’s plan is for MAGNUS to adopt a cat with a mental issue or two which requires Edie to come and help him.  

Surprisingly Edie decides to help Magnus and in doing so, her heart thaws toward him and they start to relax toward each other when Magnus realizes his feelings for her run deeper than expected . He doesn’t ever want her to find out the truth about why she was hired in the first place or he would love her. The twists and emotional turns were out of bounds. I started off disliking Magnus and by the end, Magnus and Edie were my new fav couple. Edie suffered horribly in the past –first from the wreck and then from her sister. When her and Magnus got together and everything started going great,  I was energized that finally this MC would get their HEA. Do they get HEA, will Levi and Bianca ruin it? To find out, you have to read. This story is just that good plus other couples from previous books make appearances. It is a great book to curl up with and read

My Rating: 4.6 stars *****
