Hail Carte; Billionaire of SalesI was known in the company as the golden goose. Whatever I touched, sold and I was at the top of my game. The local newspaper called me the most eligible bachelor, but everyone else that knew me, used the words legend. I could have anything, anyone. My life had it all.All but love.That was something that was lacking in my life and until I met my smart-mouthed … and until I met my smart-mouthed assistant Evony, I thought I didn’t need it.
But she changed everything with her smile and the innocence that was hidden behind eyes that were the color of the sky.
Now she was always on my mind and once I conned her into letting me have a taste, I lost myself. I couldn’t stop thinking about her and suddenly everything lost it’s luster.
Evony. It was all Evony and how I was going to win her over. I wanted her in my arms and in my bed. I wasn’t going to rest until I claimed her as my own.
Nothing was going to stand in my way, because nothing ever did.

I was granted an ARC of Lauren Wood’s “Billionaire Desire – A Billionaire Romance” via Booksprout; I recommend this book to others based upon its own merits. All opinions expressed within this review are uniquely my own & freely given!
Until next time… Happy Reading!
This is a steamy romance between Evony and Hail. Hail is a billionaire playboy and Evony is innocent, total opposites but good together. This slow burn romance is full of drama, angst, suspense, humor and twists that kept me turning the pages.
Evony and Hal’s story in Lauren Wood’s Billionaire Desire: A Billionaire Romance is a fun one. He’s a jerk at the start and she needs to develop her confidence. They don’t seem destined for love, but romance finds them and it’s fun to see these characters mature and their relationship develops. But for the fact that I’m literally dictating this review to my husband from my hospital bed I could go on with praises. The book deserves it. Since I can’t do that I will simply note that it is easy to recommend this tale.
I found this to be a quick and easy read. Billionaire Desire has a great storyline with compelling characters. Evony was my favorite character because of her absolute strong willed self. Her initial meeting with her new boss, Hail, certainly didn’t go as expected and to be told ‘no’ seems to capture his attention even more. To go from Assistant to his everything was beautiful to read.
I was beyond fortunate to have requested an advanced reader’s copy of Billionaire Desire in exchange for my honest opinion and I highly recommend reading this book as well as anything written by Ms Wood.
This has good characters and storyline. You will not like Hail in the beginning but he will redeem himself. Evony has always been motivated and great at her job. She put dating and relationships on the back burner. I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
A fantastic well written office romance. It has a strong storyline with drama, fear, passion, unexpected circumstances, twists and turns, and blazing hot chemistry. The characters were well developed and realistic with a slow build as they work they way to a HEA. This really pulled at my heartstrings as I flew thru the emotions and events that kept me ob the edge of my seat till the last page was turned. An amazing enjoyable fun and entertaining story. I voluntarily reviewed this ARC.
I am volunteering to leave a review of this ARC book. There are no surprises in this book, but an enjoyable novella nonetheless. Hail is the superstar salesman, and Evony is now his assistant. She could potentially be more! As Hail watches Evony, he becomes impressed and is thinking he wants more. But, does Evony have feelings for Hail? Will she act on them? Fun, quick read by Lauren. Leaves your heart light and warm.
I enjoyed reading this rather unusual yet entertaining billionaire romance. The plot is interesting & entertaining. The characters are well-developed with contrasting, individual personalities.
There is: a conceited eligible bachelor billionaire (Hail Carte), his sassy assistant & intended target (Evony), a manipulative boss (Mark), accidentally eavesdropping, embarrassment, unexpected promotion, dismay, rumors, annoyance, shock, verbal confrontation, devious plans, rivalry, jealousy, shyness, determination, mischievousness, complications, obsession, confusion, manipulations, anger, unexpected declaration, vulnerability, happiness & some steam.
ONE SATISFYING EXPERIENCE!!!
Wow! Man, talk about the forbidden fruit. Lauren knows how to spin a tale that keeps you on your toes along with a razors edge. You can’t help falling in love with the style, fantastic storyline and strong plot that’s as riveting as it is captivating from start to finish. All the drama, fear and uncertainty really pulls this little gem together smoothly. A rollercoaster ride of emotions and events that really pulls those heartstrings. Twists and turns abound with unexpected circumstances that make for one incredible experience. Lauren nails this little gem 100% on point it really hits the heart. The two main characters chemistry is intense, white hot and explosive. The characters are complex and believable with such depth and individuality it’s easy to relate. The scenes are so graphically detailed and descriptive you have no trouble picturing each scenario as they play off one another in perfect balance. Lauren did a remarkable job bringing this read to life flawlessly. Fantastic job Lauren, thanks for sharing this little gem with us.
Evony is not impressed when she is assigned to be playboy Hail’s assistant, and he certainly did not make a great first impression. Will this playboy change his ways? No spoilers; this is a definite must read, you will not be disappointed! This is a well written slow burn story, which is steamy and intriguing, and had me totally enthralled throughout. I look forward to reading more from this talented author, whose work I recommend for all.
I voluntarily reviewed an advanced copy via the author for an honest review.
This book was a split decision for me. For me it had the good, the bad and the ugly. The Good: I liked Evony. She was smart, good at her job, motivated and an enjoyable blend of naivety and sass. I felt that the storyline was fun and paced well and the banter between the two characters was witty and clever. The Bad: Hail, was in my opinion, an egotistical jerk, a HR nightmare and quite possibly the worst manwh*** I’ve ever come across in a book. Now, do not get me wrong, I love a bad boy, an alpha male or a hero that is dominate but Hail seriously aggravated me and it made it very difficult for me to connect with him. Lastly, The Ugly: As I stated previously I love a hero with an edge and I enjoy the whole experienced male/naïve female trope (which I know is not popular with every reader). I do not like having the sexual antics of said hero being shoved in the heroine’s face. This occurs multiple times and with various women and even if this is prior to the couple getting together, I find it a big turnoff. I truly wish that things had been different in this book, but as it stands I can only say this was an OK read for me.
