4.5 StarsOver the last couple of weeks I’ve read two very different books by Jackie Ashenden and they are as different as night and day but both excellently written and extremely entertaining. I loved the premise of this story, the way the couple met, the fact that they had more in common than they realized, and that the fallout of their night changed their lives forever for the better. The Billion Dollar Bachelor is a fairytale story of sorts but instead of the prince saving the princess, they save each other.Pandora Garret has lived a solitary life as the daughter of a major crime boss. Every decision has been made for her, she has no real friends, and she’s pretty much cut off from human contact. So when she sees a chance to escape her bodyguard, she takes it and meets a man who gives her more than she ever bargained for.Jax Morrow is having a rough week…hell month, and so he’s picked this one night to drown his sorrows. He’s well on his way when a woman walks through the doors at the bar, a woman he can’t take his eyes off, a woman that stirs all kinds of thoughts up in his head. A drink, some flirting, and a proposition later he takes her home only to find out the next morning what he thought would be an uncomplicated fling becomes complicated fast.This book moves at a fast pace and will more than likely leave your head spinning. Pandora and Jax barely know one another but once it’s discovered they spent the night together they find themselves engaged. It’s crazy but necessary at least for the time being and while they both make some errors in judgment they somehow work and find their feelings for each other growing. Let’s not forget about the hotter than hell sex with a little bit of kink thrown in for good measure.This book has it all; engaging characters, a crazy plot, and some steamy sex. The Billion Dollar Bachelor is the first book in this series and I can’t wait to see what happens next!Review copy provided for an honest review.
