This was my first story in this series and what a great read it was. The characters have depth and personalities for days. Noah the oldest Sinclair and the family patriarch has taken that role seriously since their mother passed. Now his siblings are grown but Noah is still stuck in the same routine. Who better than his brother’s best friend to help Noah break out of his shell? Andie looked up to Noah as a kid but now he is grown up and smokin’ hot.

Blurb :

Opposites resist—and attract—under the Cancún sun in this emotional Accidental Billionaires novel by New York Times bestselling author J.S. Scott.
Years ago, Noah Sinclair promised his dying mother that he’d stay strong and work hard for his younger brothers and sisters. Even with the Sinclairs’ newfound wealth, Noah has never steered from that blue-collar drive. His siblings think it’s time—with the gift of a Cancún vacation. To Noah, being forced to relax isn’t bliss. It’s a chore. Especially under the watch of a beautiful family friend enlisted to make sure every laptop under the sun stays closed.
All Andie has to do is convince a handsome billionaire to take a deep breath? It should be a dream for the bohemian travel writer. If Noah—a workhorse so resistant to change—weren’t spoiling for a fight. But no matter how hard Noah pushes her away, Andie is pushing back. She promised she’d teach Noah to embrace every pleasure in life. It’s a promise she made to herself once, too.
What begins as a battle of wills becomes a chance for Noah and Andie to open their hearts and share their fears. Night after intimate night. It’s the last thing they expected from Cancún, and it’s what they need the most. Even if it isn’t supposed to be forever.

My review :

When a lively woman meets a work alcoholic man, can their worlds collide without them getting burned …

I am a sucker for Mrs J.S. Scott’s stories since her first Sinclairs book, and even if I read more historical romance than contemporary’s, I am always happy to dive back in her universe.
Why I am glad I read this one.
It is such a sweet tale.
I loved both main characters, from Andie and her taste for adventure to Noah and his devotion to his siblings.
I will try to not spill anything about the background plot, as it would spoil the pleasure of this read.
Noah, what to say about him, he dedicated his whole life to his siblings, from his young teens days to the present, everything he did was for them. Truly he had no life, only insuring they had food on the table and means to pursue their education were his life motives and it kept him going.
So when he came to his unknown inhérence, he brushed it aside, unable to see it for what it was, his freedom pass, his way to regain his lost years taking care of his kin to enjoy a different future.
His way of life was so ingrained in him, he does not who he is anymore and what he likes.
Enters Andie and with her, a whole world opens under his feet.
I loved to see him let go, to experience and discover. Whatever he faces, he is still the kind and caring man he has always been, he just demonstrates it a different way.
Andie is breath of fresh air, she enjoys life at its fullest and looks always for new things to try.
While she grew up with wealth, she also was very alone, one could say poor little rich girl, but she is so much more than a spoiled rotten rich woman. Life tough her a hard lesson, and since she wants to savor it. Still, loneliness is her companion and for once, with Noah, she will explore and try again with someone by a side, something completely new for her.
Together, they tour and test, while their chemistry reaches the charts.
When they let go, it is like an eruption of sensations.
From there, up to them to have faith and trust the other to be the right person for one another.

A lovely read with steam but also so much love and tenderness. It is not a story with plenty of actions, angst or bad guys to fight, but one to think about the meaning of life and the purpose we want to give to it.
5 stars for this tale of living for one another and with love.

I was granted an advance copy by the publisher Montlake, here is my true and unbiased opinion.

I enjoyed reading this story! It begins with a prologue with a 18 year old Noah and his mother and you find out what happens. This brought tears to my eyes. Then you read about how Noah’s brother Owen gets his friend Andie to go on a trip with Noah to Cancun . I loved reading what happens between them and you also learn what happened to Andie in her past. Loved reading the journey about Noah and Andie and how it heals them. And Epilogue had me in happy tears. I recommend this book!

Book 4 in Accidental Billionaire series by J. S. Scott
Noah is the oldest of the Sinclair’s and for years he has looked after all his siblings but after years of keeping his promise to his dying mother to keep his head down and work hard he doesn’t know how to slow down and enjoy his billions.
Andie is Owens bff from high school and after asking her to go in his place to Cancun and try to get Noah to relax and enjoy he holiday.
Problem is Noah’s a workaholic and she ends up steeling his laptop so he can’t work.
Andie is a travel blogger and I love that they explore places that are the usual touristy spots.
Love this addition to accidental series really looking forward to Owen story especially after the the fight he had with Layla at a family party.
Great HEA and if you want could read on it’s own but to fully understand was going on and who people are I would recommend reading whole series but especially where it all started with Sinclair series starting with No Ordinary Billionaire

During the past year or so, J.S. Scott has become my favorite author in the Billionaire Romance category. With her stories, it’s not all about the money. Her characters bring passion, complexity and sincerity to every page. Especially, The Accidental Billionaires series. Each book I read in the series becomes my favorite. And Enchanted was no exception. In fact, I’d say it’s my favorite J.S. Scott book to date. And another aspect that is so great, is that I haven’t yet read all her Billionaire books. Looking forward to that as soon as I can find some extra time. Also, this author can write a story with all the feels, the angst is always enough to keep you invested but not over -the -top. I love my happy endings but sometimes to get there, the angst is just too much and I find I just want a book to end already. But not with this author, and not with this book. I was engaged in every word until the very end. I just can’t wait until the next Sinclair sibling gets their book!

Noah and Andie…..
Ok…if you have read any books in this series, then you know these Sinclair siblings did not grow up Billionaires. In fact, they have had a very tough life. The oldest sibling, Noah, has had to grow up too soon. Since his late teens, he has been the provider, protector and what holds what’s left of his family together. The dynamic between the Sinclair siblings was amazing; believable. They loved each other and were loyal to each other to a fault.

Even now, when money is not and will never be an issue again, Noah can’t seem to turn his obsessiveness to provide for his siblings off. It has not yet sunk in, that being poor will never be an issue again. I want to stop here and say that my heart belonged to Noah from very early on. His character was endearing and there was just nothing negative about his personality, except for his workaholic persona.

When Noah’s siblings send him on a two-week vacation, the first he’s ever had, Noah is annoyed and frustrated. He doesn’t want to go away, doesn’t want to stop working, doesn’t believe he is entitled to have any fun. Despite his complaints about the vacation, he goes as not to upset his siblings.

Andie has her own sad, and traumatic story, one I will not go into because that is an aspect that makes this book more emotional. I just can’t spoil that for you. Andie is a travel journalist with her own blog and she just happens to be Noah’s youngest brother’s best friend. When he asks her to go on vacation with Noah and make sure he has fun instead of working, Andie is delighted. First because she loves traveling. Second because she would never say no to Owen. And thirdly, because once upon a time, Noah’s kindness and welcoming persona gave Andie something she never had but desperately needed at a young time in her life.

As you read each page, more of the story will unfold. Andie and Noah find themselves both having a great time with each other. But when the two-week vacation is over, the real angst begins. I loved every single page of the book! Every word. This author knows how to write incredible stories with heart and passion. In addition, her characters are some of my favorites ever found on the pages.

I absolutely recommend this book! Enchanted is a standalone and the series can be read out of order but to have to best reading experience, I recommend you start from the beginning.

This is my honest and unbiased review. Thank you for taking the time to read it. 🙂

I was so excited to finally get the story of the eldest of the West Coast Sinclairs! My heart broke for all the Sinclairs since the passing of their mother, but it was Noah’s story that I have been waiting for.

Noah was only 18 when their mother had passed, the opening scene in this book made my heart ache. The promise he made to her he had kept for so many years that I don’t think he knew he didn’t have to do it any more. Now that all his siblings are grown they see the toll it has taken their eldest brother so they decide to take action. Owen, the youngest, asks his best friend Andie to help Noah learn to relax. Andie is such a wonderful character, she remembers Noah as a child and really looked up to him. She had a rough childhood and she remembers how much Noah had also helped her in times of need. The connection these two had was strong but Andie is keeping secrets that makes the happily ever after that Noah wants a bit difficult. But all is well and the eventual HEA is worth it all.

Enchanted was an awesome read, I loved how Noah knew that they were meant to be and even though Andie was so determined about no strings in the beginning, circumstances made her realize what was important. Another fantastic book by JS Scott!

“Enchanted” is the fourth book in The Accidental Billionaires series and only one more book to go. I sure hate to see it end because the author has made is so easy to fall in love with the Sinclair’s.
This is Noah Sinclair’s story and I was pulled in from the very first page. It is not hard to see why Noah has always been a workaholic, have your tissues ready for the prologue. Noah is hard working, handsome, rich, and a real sweetheart, although that is a side everybody doesn’t get to see even Noah himself. His brother Owen has a best friend by the name of Andie that Noah remembers from years ago. Since Andie feels like she owes Owen for all he has done for her over the years she agrees to accompany Noah on a vacation, a non-working vacation which will be a first for Noah. When the vacation is over and it’s back to real life once again, what will happen to these two complete opposites? Just like there is a reason for Noah being a workaholic, there is also a reason for Andie being a free spirit.
Five “Keep your head down and work hard” stars for this one!!

This story of Noah and Andie really touched my heart. Noah, the oldest brother of the California Sinclair family is driven working every waking minute. Andie, the childhood friend on Noah’s youngest brother lives for the day. These two opposites attract big time. But of course, Annie’s reason for her take on life causes issues. Despite being a bit of a tearjerker, this was a truly inspirational story of opposites attracting and overcoming issues. Andie and Noah are a wonderful couple that I’d like to know!

Living and loving to the full:
This book provided a good escape whilst still dealing with real issues that we can relate to. Poor Noah has shut himself off and has worked to the bone to provide for his family and now he doesn’t know how to step back. Thankfully Andie is able to show him how to let go and to live a life of balance. However Andie has had her own past trauma and initially shuts Noah out but thankfully they are able to realize they both deserve to be together. An inspiring message from the book is that we all ought to grab onto life and pursue our dreams with passion and abandon.
This was book 4 and whilst I hadn’t read the previous books, I was able to follow along quite well and although it is probably preferable to read them in order, I believe it can still be read as a standalone. It was an enjoyable read although I did find it rather wordy at times with inner dialogue rehashing the same things over again. Also I found the constant writing of words in italics for added emphasis annoying.
I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review. All opinions expressed are solely my own.

I don’t think that there’s a book that Ms Scott has written that I haven’t enjoyed. This was no exception. Noah and Andie balanced each other, one being too disciplined and the other living for the moment. Both had valid reasons for the way they were living even though the reasons didn’t apply anymore. What started as a favor for a longtime friend became something much more.
