Great read can’t wsi for the next book in the series.
A wonderful story to continue the stories of the Sinclair’s. What do you do when you’ve been poor all your life and all the sudden you are a billionaire? That’s what Jade is struggling with. She turns to the ultra-hot Eli Stone to show her how to be rich without losing who she was. And of course – there are sparks. Hot, molten, attraction. But something in Eli’s past his keeping him from commitment. But how can you keep from committing when you’ve fallen in love?
4,5 Stars for Ensnared by J.S. Scott, what can I say about this book well guess I should start with what a great start to the new The Accidental Billionaires Series and if this book is anything to go by this author has another hit series on her hands. This is a spin off from the Sinclair’s series and as I haven’t read those books I was wondering if it would make a difference to my enjoyment of this story I shouldn’t have worried because after reading Ensnared I not only want more in this series I want to go back and read The Sinclair’s.
Jade isn’t used to having money and is struggling with becoming a billionaire overnight and she meets fellow billionaire Eli Stone when she pitches an idea to him, there is instant attraction between them but Jade believes Eli is just another rich playboy who isn’t interested in more than one night. Eli Stone up until now had no interest in relationships but Jade started feeling he didn’t know he had so he offers to spend 10 days with her showing her how to be comfortable as a rich woman……..
Instant attraction, sizzling chemistry as well as some witty banter makes this a real page Turner, I loved the plot I loved the story and I can’t wait for more from The Sinclair’s.
An increddread for a new Sinclair family.
I absolutely loved this book, I started reading The Sinclair’s so when this one showed up I was elated, can’t wait for the next book.

The one every girl dreams of to come in and sweep her off her feet.
J.S. Scott is a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of erotic romance. I have read several of her books, and I love her writing. How she brings her characters to life is perfect. Her storytelling flows so well by the time you look up you don’t realize you are halfway done. Ensnared, The Accidental Billionaires #1 by J.S. Scott is another winner in my books. If you are looking for a book for one those quiet rainy days to fall in love, this is it. J.S. Scott did it again.
Learning how to live with the inheritance she just received is not the easiest for Jade Sinclair. She did not grow up with money. She has worked for everything she has. Even put herself through college getting her doctorate in wildlife conservation. With this new money, she has options now. She does not have to jump on that first job offer, but she does know she wants a piece of land that is important in preserving the wildlife in the area. And of course Eli Stone owns that land.
Eli Stone is a man who gets what he wants and always on his terms. He is a business magnate. Work hard, play harder. An adventure seeker, adrenaline junkie, and a philanthropist on top of everything else. Still that one “player” you know you should stay away from but the smooth talking, tattoos, and muscles are just too tempting. Goodness knows Jade’s willpower is tons better than my own. I would not mind being the mouse in his cat and mouse game.
Eli and Jade have their struggles to get through in this book. Eli had my heart by the end of this book. Jade’s character was written well coming from a science nerd and how awkward it is dealing with people much less dealing with the opposite sex. She is sharp, independent, and one smart cookie. I love their love story, it was sexy, steamy but also not too much. Just the right amount for this love story.
This series is a great offshoot of the Sinclair series. I am enjoying it for sure! I loved reading about Jade and Eli. Eli is the perfect male character and as always, JS Scott does a great job of touching on tough stuff without digging too deep. It makes the characters much more real and makes you want to know more. Excellent book – can’t wait for the next one.
And the Steamy, Romance Billionaire reads just keep on coming. The Accidental Billionaires is a new series by the awesomeness, J.S.Scott.
The story of Jade and Eli was so touching, both strong characters. I love that not only do we always read about strong alpha males, but J.S.Scott almost always gives us a strong female character. Sure they cry, and show great emotions, but her female leads, like Jade are shown to be much more. Strong, independent, hard working, the list is endless. It’s always a pleasure to read about both characters.
Jade finds her new wealth incredibly hard. Apparently this is a very real thing. I understood her reservations, and couldn’t help but smile at Eli helping her, but if by some miracle I became a billionaire, I would know exactly what I’d do. I’d still be me just with more money to spend, and spend it I would. Imagine all the books you could buy.
Eli is a great guy, he’s just perfect for Jade. They are alike in many ways, a match made in the mountains. He’s protective, his claiming Jade of Jade got me excited to a whole new level. ‘MINE’ yeah, I wouldn’t mind being Eli’s.
Ensnared just blew me away, I almost thought right in the middle of the book that there could be a chance of no happy ever after, but alas I should have known better.
A must read for all romance lovers.
Ensnared was another great read by J.S. Scott. This is book one in The Accidental Billionaire’s series. Jade is a wildlife conservationist who definitely did not come from money. She became a billionaire overnight when she found out that she was a Sinclair. Eli has always been super rich and thinks he can buy his way to Jade. I absolutely fell in love with Jade and Eli. I can’t wait to read more by J.S. Scott.
OH Author J.S. Scott, only you know how to introduce a new book with such an imagination and creativity. Regardless of this book being parallel to the Sinclair series, this is a new family, therefore, a new saga, the characters are a new family and therefore new situations and much more stories to tell. In this book, we get introduced to Jade Sinclair who not only suddenly discovers she has a new family but also receives an incredible amount of money making her a billionaire overnight. In spite of this Jade is remains the same and is adamant of not allowing her economic status to change her. She will meet her match on Eli Stone, who is a billionaire himself and is pretty much used to get what he wants, and he wants Jade, at all costs. Together they both will find that appearances can be deceiving and there is more than meets the eye. Passionate, Romantic, and a fantastic start to this new series. Author J.S. Scott has delivered another 5 STAR win.
Jade and Eli’s book is awesome. I love the fact that the heroine is a survival guide and the way that Eli is determined to win her over, as he teaches her to be comfortable with her new found wealth. Can’t wait for the next book in the series! Definitely recommend this book.
Eli and Jade have tied me up in knots! It’s the dream to come in to boatload of money… right? Well Jade certainly never expected to find out that she was heir to a pile of money or one of the illustrious Sinclair elite and now she’s not sure what to do with that information. She’s the girl that would definitely use the wrong fork and accidentally fling her escargot at a waiter. Eli gets what he wants. Coming from a life of wealth and privilege he is used not only door being opened to him but the red carpet being rolled out as well. Stubborn and sexy Jade seems to be immune to his considerable charms though. Not to be deterred he results to good old fashioned subterfuge to secure her. She teaches him the wonders of the outdoors and he will help her navigate the waters of the rich and famous. She sets rules but they are meant to be broken.
I voluntarily read an advance reader copy of this book
This is Ensnared, book 1 of the new series The Accidental Billionaires, written by JS Scott. I love that this new series is about the West coast Sinclair family and it will keep giving us glimpses of our favorite East coast Sinclair’s. Jade Sinclair has always been the ugly duckling in her own mind. When Eli Stone expresses his interest in bedding her, she must decide if she can do the “sex without strings” option that he offers. Is sex really worth risking getting her heart broken? Not in her mind. Let’s see how far Eli will go to convince her that it’s worth another try. It’s gonna be a great series because I can’t wait for the next book!
……Quote,”Due to my freaky Sudden Wealth Syndrome ” I’m like okay okaaaaaaay. We’ll address that in a while.
Firstly, I want to talk about Jade and Eli Stone story. Jade is a shy person who keeps mainly to her inner circle of her brothers, sis and her education . But as of recent she discovers she has acquired a great wealth and hopes to make a difference in the animal preservation world . She hopes with the trade form Eli Stone she can start the accommodation of that dream .
Yes ,Eli is willing to help make that dream a reality. And this is where the excitement begins and I really got deep into the story. I love all the scenes , the different places Eli took Jade in order to make her more sociable , cordial and accepting the companionship of others good or bad. And later, helping her to recognized her wealth is not a bad thing .
The intense chemistry was so sweet with a gradual build up, that made enjoy this wonderful courtship . I love how there physical relationship wasn’t rushed and the author took the time to address both there hang ups .
Okay okay just one spoiler ..
My favorite scene is the ‘camping’ the first in the Montana wilderness, when you read it you will understand why .
Okay opening quote,
I have been poor my whole life so I failed to appreciate and accept Sudden Wealth Syndrome . In fact with sudden wealth my first and foremost venture would have been and adding pavement to my street, there has never been pavement on my street in fact so to in many neighbouring streets and helping the poor and the hungry (I mean humans ) However, with the author”s address of understand Sudden Wealth Syndrome topic I’m less bias and a little more understanding.
Thank you , Author J.S Scott for another fantastic story . I’m excited, for Aiden Story.
P.S Is his daughter a prodigy at 10? I getting a hit she’s above average intelligence?
I completely enjoyed reading this story.
I really enjoyed this book, and will read more my JS Scott, especially this series.
Love Eli and Jade’s story, for me it was a fast read since it held my attention so well. Looking forward to the rest of the Sinclair characters in all their books.
4 stars
First, I somehow was mistaken about the genre of this book: I read historical fiction and murder mysteries. This is more of a romance novel, but with way too much eroticism. I despised the use of the F work to refer to lovemaking.

Ensnared was the first book in the Accidental Billionaires series by JS Scott. The series was a spinoff from the Sinclair series.
We met Jade Sinclair previously as Brooke’s twin sister (Only A Millionaire, a Sinclair series novella). As one of the five west coast Sinclair siblings, she just learned of her deceased father’s wealth and second family. She went from poor to a billionaire over night – literally. She’s always worked hard for everything and she wasn’t about to stop now.
Eli Stone was a billionaire by birth. He always had more money than most knew what to do with – but he knew exactly what to do. He was gorgeous, single, arrogant, confident, a successful business owner, an extreme adventurist, a philanthropist and a very high profile public figure. He met Jade once and pursued her doggedly. She resisted and refused to answer his calls. Used to getting what he wanted, he found a way for their paths to cross.
I enjoyed both characters as well as the storyline. It was a different perspective. Jade was learning how to live with money. She had only known poor, so this was a new landscape for her. Who knew Sudden Wealth Syndrome was actually legit. And yea I googled it.
Scott took us through Eli’s persistent chase as well as Jade’s new found challenges. It was a fun and enjoyable ride with a few unexpected turns. Scott also prepped us for the next book in the series, Entangled. I love second chances and it has promise to be intriguing.
