Aaron’s magic trick has gone tragically. He swears he will stay until his killer is found. Elizabeth is tasked with staying in Aaron’s house which people say is haunted. This was one unusual love story and mystery. There are several twists and turns and I was kept guessing on who the killer was. Will she fall in love with a ghost? Can they solve the mystery together? There were so many surprises and a ending I loved!!!! Definitely a re listen. The narrator did an amazing job.
Fantastic, with characters you love and hate. Has some twists and turns to keep you glued to the book and guessing as to what happens next. You will be captivated right to the end.
The Magic Of The Billionaire in one word is Wow! A story about a ghost needing to find his killer, and the young woman that the lawyers office sent to finalize his home for sale. Elizabeth has to be made to believe in ghost to be able to work with Aaron the magician that was killed in a trick that went seriously wrong. Aaron wants Elizabeth to try to figure out who killed him so he can cross on over. This is a must read.
This book kept me glued to my seat reading until I finished it! The mystery in this book is very good. I could not even start to figure it out! I dare you to try figuring out the clues! I recommend this book to anyone who loves a good mystery and romance in the same book!
Such a fun read. I totally guessed from the start the how but not the who. I stayed up too late reading. Looking forward to her next romantic suspense.
This was an amazing book with fabulous characters. The Magic of a Billionaire is a contemporary murder mystery that reminds me of Agatha Christie’s famed stories. There are many suspects and more accidents that keep the reader guessing the identity of the culprit until the very end.
Aaron is a magician that dies during his last performance and Elizabeth works for a law firm hired by Aaron’s grandfather to get his home ready for sale. There is one complication, however: Aaron’s ghost is haunting the house. Elizabeth is drawn to the ghost and wants to help him find his murderer. As the days pass, she begins to fall in love with Aaron. An old boyfriend shows up, thefts and accidents occur and Elizabeth finds herself in danger.
Marie Higgins has written a richly detailed novel that will have you staying up late to discover “whodunit”. A clean 5-star romantic suspense book.
The Magic of a Billionaire may be the best book I have read all year! The reader who said “You won’t get anything done the day you pick up this book and start reading.” was correct. Marie Higgins has written a masterpiece of romance, mystery and illusion! Elizabeth was just amazing as she began to suspect murder not an accident. Almost nothing is what it seems to be (fitting for the world of magic) except the love of Aaron and Elizabeth. This book just grabs you and does not let go. I highly recommend this book.
A brilliant story of murder, a ghost and the power of the beyond.. That is with the help of one determined woman, paralegal Elizabeth Martin. Given an assignment by her boss to go stay at the house and see if the rumors were true it was haunted, and start getting it ready to sell.
The famous magician Aaron Powers had been killed by one of his illusions gone bad. Or was it murder? Elizabeth arrives at his mansion and what do you think she finds? Aaron? An Illusion of a ghost?
Totally enthralling from beginning to end, Marie Higgins has outdone herself and shown her wide range of talent from writing about the old west, to contemporary and now with a great, almost paranormal mysterious romance. Is there nothing she cannot imagine? This is why her fans keep coming back for more, me included. Her descriptive writing style pulls you in and brings the story to life.
I have to tell you about the amazing ending.. Wait, my words are disappearing….. you will have to see for yourself!!
Warning: This is not a book to plan on reading a chapter of before bed. You’re not going to want to put it down until the very end of the book. Elizabeth and Aaron are very likable characters. The plot twists and turns and moves quickly. What is real in an illusionist’s home? You need to read this book to find out. I obtained a copy through KU.
This is not a genre I would usually read. I’m not a big fan of ghosts and almost stopped the book a few times. Elizabeth and Adam were great together and the mystery kept me going. It was an intruiging read that kept me guessing right to the end. I guess I can enjoy ghost stories after all.
Heart stopping, breath taking and edge of your seat story! I don’t think I breathed at all during the Prologue. So many twists, turns, surprises, suspense and romance throughout. Wonderful read!
It was worth the wait for the first full length novel from Marie Higgins in several years. Such great characters in Elizabeth, Aaron, Nolan, Thomas, ZoAnn, Jethro and other minor characters. You will find yourself trying to solve Aaron’s murder, you want them caught for such a brutal crime. Even after all your sleuthing, you will be surprised by who committed the crime. Be prepared to lose some sleep because you will not want to put this book down.
This is definately a different type of mystery that I thoroughly enjoyed. I didn’t figure what was going to be the outcome. Ms. Higgins has done another super job! I loved this book. I received an ARC. This is my honest, voluntary review.
This is an interesting story that does not have to be read with the other books of the series. There is romance, mystery, suspense, and a bit of magic. My interest was there from the beginning especially with the unexpected magic act going wrong and trying to figure our if there is a ghost or not. Many twist and turns that left me thinking.
