Thank u so much for this fabulous story. I could not stop reading once I started, yes it was that good. Jan never fails when it comes to her books. Who is ready for more besides this girl. I can not wait for the next in this series. Bring it on..
Ensnared is the highly anticipated first installment in The Accidental Billionaires series by J. S. Scott. It’s a spin off of the the very popular and successful The Sinclairs series. These books are among my top favorite reads. Jan is my ultimate queen of Billionaire books – nobody writes better stories in this genre than her. I bow to her incredible talent to deliver such touching and captivating stories in the world of the super rich, beautiful and privileged. What I love most about Jan’s characters is that they are multi-faceted and complex. She shows us that those people despite their vast fortune can have insecurities and doubts like everybody else. It makes them feel real and human. And that’s what I cherish so much about her heroes and heroines.
When Wildlife conservationist Jade Sinclair learned that she and her four siblings were part of the mega-rich Sinclair dynasty, they became billionaires overnight. But Jade isn’t used to having so much money and doesn’t know how to act rich, especially when she’s dealing with an arrogant, frustrating and sexy snob like Eli Stone.
Unlike Jade, Eli grew up privileged and keeps getting richer by expanding his businesses. He is an adventure seeker who is always looking for his next challenge. When Eli meets Jade he is intrigued by her intelligence and her ability to care for herself. He forms a plan with the hidden agenda to get her alone in the wilderness by buying out all the spots in her survival class.
They strike a bargain: Jade will teach Eli basic survival skills, and he’ll teach her how to navigate the world of the wealthy elite. Jade has only one condition—she will not let herself be seduced by him. But some things are easier said than done…
Jade and Eli were two intriguing and very likable characters and I loved the sizzling chemistry between them. I was so happy to see that Eli wasn’t intimidated by Jade’s independence and her smarts – on the contrary. They turned him on. The strong and affectionate bond between the Sinclair siblings made my heart melt. They all supported and took care of each other since they were young. Family always came first to them.
J. S. Scott did a very good job with this story. I highly recommend it to all her loyal fans and new readers who didn’t have the chance to pick up a story written by this incredibly talented author. I can’t wait to see what Jan has in tow for the rest of the Sinclair clan. I’m giving Ensnared 4 stars.
Being a huge JS Scott fan I was over the moon happy that she is going to write another series for Montlake: The Accidental Billionaires series. What made me even more excited was the fact that the major characters are related to the Sinclair Billionaires from her previous books. I loved them all so much and consider them one of my most favorite reads ever!
Ensnared is the story about Wildlife conservationist Jade Sinclair. Being poor all of her life, her and and her siblings had to stick together and work hard in order to survive. But their all lives suddenly change the moment they learn that they are a part of the mega-rich Sinclair dynasty, making them billionaires overnight.
Jade is out of her element the moment she meets the arrogant and super sexy billionaire Eli Stone. Unlike her, he grew up rich and is a very successful businessman. Eli is not the relationship kind of guy. But somehow Jade’s natural beauty and intelligence are making him crave her like no other woman before. But the shy and cautious beauty is avoiding him at all cost.
In order to get some alone time with her, Eli buys out all the spots in her survival class. While spending time together in the wildness they strike a bargain: Jade will teach Eli basic survival skills while he will teach her how to navigate the world of the social elite. Jade agrees on only one condition—she will not let herself be seduced by him. But what starts out as a friendship soon turns into so much more…
Nobody writes Billionaires better than JS Scott. Eli Stone was a prime example of that. He was sexy, cocky and a little arrogant, but that was all a facade. Deep down he was a good guy who fiercely protected the ones he cared about. Like Jade he was a geek who preferred to have his privacy more than being in the spotlight. He was crazy about Jade and I admire how hard he fought to get her attention.
Jade was equally beautiful and smart. Coming from a poor family, she was a little lost in the world of the rich and privileged. But she was eager to learn and did that fast. She tried to resist Eli’s charm, but was unable to. Their deep emotional connection and sizzling chemistry was too strong to be denied.
All in all I very much enjoyed reading their story. JS Scott delivered an intriguing start to The Accidental Billionaires series and I can’t wait to read the books about Jade’s brothers. 4 stars
“Ensnared” is the first book in The Accidental Billionaires series and I loved it. Jade Sinclair never thought she would be wealthy but now that she is, she has no idea what to do next, who to trust, how to invest, she is just totally lost. A meeting with wickedly rich Eli Stone, doesn’t go the way she expected but it does leave Eli wanting to know Jade better, and so their story begins.
I found myself totally pulled into this book from the very first page, the chemistry between the two is off the charts and the story flows easily. There are parts in this book that had me laughing out loud and parts that made me cry. I wanted to see how it all ended and at the same time did not want the story to end, but I also feel like we will get to hear more about Eli and Jade in the books to come in this series. The author also gave us a glimpse of the characters in the next book in this series, and I can already tell that it is gonna be a fantastic read also. I highly recommend this book to all romance lovers.
Five “keep the crazy going” stars for this one!
When Jade suddenly became a billionaire she wasn’t sure what to with her self and all that money. But she didn’t want to be the kind of billionaire that Eli Stone was. She saw him as inconsiderate but at the same time fascinating. Their first meeting unnerved Jade for many reasons. When he offered to mentor her in the ways of a billionaire she accepted his help because she had a lot to learn. Being close to him broke down her defenses quickly and she started to really like him. After telling her he wasn’t the commitment type he came to realize that may no longer be true. After a terrible accident that had him blaming himself for, he tried once again to keep his distance but Jade was in his system and there was no escaping. After a miscommunication they each thought the other was gone for good. Lucky for us Eli gets what Eli wants! “The butterfly finally flies”
West Coast Sinclair’s are just as amazing and fun to read as the East Coast family. Jade’s struggle with accepting her billionaire status has her agreeing to learn from Eli—a man she dislikes. The things Eli does to persuade Jade and the internal dialogue they both have on their journey is genuinely enjoyable. I couldn’t put this book down. It pulls you in from the first page.
I am so loving the new group of California Sinclairs! As we get a glimpse at all the siblings we really get to know Jade. She’s not use to her new found wealth but she’ll gladly use some of it to buy a specific parcel of property. As a wildlife conservationist she’s willing to do anything to protect the breed that is nesting on the property. Too bad the arrogant man that owns the property won’t listen to reason. That’s how she first meets Eli. What happens after that is unexpected but perhaps not completely unwanted.
I really enjoyed Jade and Eli’s story and definitely recommend it to everyone.
4 Star Review Ensnared (The Accidental Billionaire’s #1) by J.S.Scott
J.S. Scott is a new author to me and I have absolutely no idea why that is.
I was intrigued by this story line and jumped at the opportunity to read and review. When Jade Sinclair becomes a billionaire overnight she has no clue how to act, or how to deal with the people she now comes into contact with, which includes Eli Stone, a man who annoys her on numerous levels..
Jade is a wildlife conservationist and despite her misgivings she agrees to an unlikely truce with Eli. Jade is going to teach Eli basic survival skills and in exchange Eli will help her learn how to move in the rich and elite circles she and her siblings now find themselves in.
However Eli is determined to that Jade will fall for his charms even as Jade is determined not too. I actually really liked Eli, I know reading the blurb he came off as an arrogant and snobby jerk but there was more to him then meets the eye.
I found myself charmed by this story and did not want to put this book down, it was one of those, just one more chapter reads, if you know what I mean.
I received this book in exchange for an honest review from the publisher through Netgalley and look forward to reading more in the series.
Since finding out that her rarely there father was one of the wealthy East Coast Sinclairs and that she, her brothers and sister are mega rich thanks to the her newly found half-brother Evan Sinclair, Jade has felt disconnected and on her own. She continues to immerse herself in her academic interests and to teach her classes on wilderness survival. She meets with Eli Stone in an attempt to secure a ‘useless’ piece of real estate as a wildlife corridor. The meeting did not go well, but Eli takes a very strong interest in her. She rebuffs him, but at least she knows he doesn’t just want to date her money!
I didn’t want to like Eli at the beginning of this book. He acted like a bit of a jerk. But as he pursued Jade, it became more clear that something else was going on here. These two characters worked together just right. It became evident that Eli wants the best for Jade, but rather than doing the rich guy thing and just buying it for her, he pushed her toward her goal.
This story drew me in from the first page and kept my interest riveted to the turning pages. LOVED IT!
When Jade Sullivan comes into a tremendous amount of money she approaches Billionaire Eli Stone to ask to buy a plot of land he owns. He turns her down flat but is fascinated by Jade and starts to pursue her. She ignores him but eventually they come together for a no strings attached fun time fling but life has a way of turning this time together into something else entirely.
In Ensnared we get to know a very insecure Jade who doesn’t know what to do with herself or her new found money. When Eli Stone offers to help her navigate the “waters” of finance she takes him up on the offer and she becomes a very mature, secure woman. Having Eli in her life doesn’t hurt with her newfound confidence. When a misunderstanding happens she takes the opportunity to grow and find out what she is really made of.
I never miss an opportunity to read about one of J S Scott’s billionaire alpha men. She always finds a new and interesting plot for the guys she is famous for writing about. We are introduced to strong, sometimes flawed, alphas who fall hard for the right woman. I thoroughly enjoyed this start to a new series and look forward to the others to follow.
Jade Sinclair is finally done with her school and working on finding her place in her field of study. Eli Stone has a piece of land perfect for Jade’s project with wildlife conservation but Eli won’t sell. The chemistry between these two is off the charts from the start. Now sit back and watch the magic happen. Love this new extension of the Sinclairs!
Jade had to convince Eli Stone to sale her this piece of land to help conserve the wildlife. But he wouldn’t. He offered her 10 days to teach her how tb be a billionaire. She just inherited the money along with her siblings. Both knew 10 days would be more. But the agreement no commitment and just sex. He kept putting the sex off. When she fell off the cliff he was there in the hospital and to take her home to care for her. He messed up when he got sick and was in the hospital with a bad case of the flu. Will she listen to his reasoning and will she succumb to the love she has for him.
Awesome erotic romance! J.S. Scott’s writing is flawless and enjoyable. I loved both eli and jade,two very different people and with different back grounds who together had great chemistry. Eli is all about being in control,but jade has away of getting under his skin with her strong and sexy independent nature. What starts out as eli just wanting to have sex with her turns into love and for him letting go of the ghost’s from his past. Great build up and steamy sex !! This has adult content and language. It’s writes like this that make erotica so good!!
Great book
Love the new group of Sinclairs! The unassuming and unsure new billionaire Jade Sinclair is an awesome match to the confident and aggressive Eli Stone. These two have an immediate and intense chemistry that takes them on a ride they never expected.
This is an incredible romance that touching on every emotion. Not only does Jade and Eli find their forever love in each other, they help each other realize their full potential. Highly recommended.
Romantic & Touching!!

Love all the Sinclair books. Great read!
This was my first book by J.S. Scott. It was a fun introduction to her writing. Jade and her siblings find out that their mostly absent father had another family and was a very wealthy man. When they inherit billions it is quit a surprise. Eli grew up wealthy and just keeps getting richer. She is determined to resist the attraction to Eli and he is determined to change her mind.
This was a fun book with a twist. Loved that Jade had lots of money too so no one could claim she was getting involved with Eli for his money. They had some great adventures while getting to know each other. Looking forward to getting to know these characters more.
I really enjoyed this book. It has great characters that are interesting, likable. The story line is intriguing and well developed. It kept my interest until the very end. Jade and Eli made a great couple with just the right amount of chemistry and emotions. I look forward to reading more books from the Sinclair family series.
Actually I have enjoyed all the books that I have read by this author. Although each book can be read and enjoyed as a stand alone, normally the characters have been introduced in previous books. Mostly, these are romantic, happily ever after stories, but they do always contain steamy sex scenes and there is always a personal conflict from the past that must be resolved by the couple.
