When my manager assigns me the task of finding a new wake up call service for our CEO, I think, how hard can this be?Answer: practically impossible. It turns out that no wake-up call company in the world will take him on as a client. They’ve all had enough of his surly personality.So in an effort not to lose my job, I secretly start making the calls myself, every day at 4:30 am sharp. OMG yes you … sharp. OMG yes you read that right–four freaking thirty in the morning.
Confession: I’m not the nicest wake-up-call girl at that hour. Hello! Who wakes up before the roosters are even crowing? Luckily he doesn’t seem to mind my get-your-ass-out-of-bed attitude.
Day by day we’re becoming closer, and the calls start turning hot, like pay-by-the-minute hot and oh-so-wild. Snuggled under the covers with the moonlight streaming in the windows, we divulge our secrets to each other, but the one thing that he can never find out is that the sexy vixen who wakes him up every morning is just the lowly assistant who wears frumpy dresses. I can only imagine his disappointment.
Now he wants to take me out on a date and he’s scouring Manhattan to find me. He’s an overachieving billionaire bent on a mission. How much longer can I keep up this charade?

One of the funniest books I’ve read all year!
Funny, sexy, hot romp perfect for your summer reading!
The dirty talk was a little much for my preferences (if you love a dirty-talking hero, bonus for you!), however the fun, original plot, the depth of the characters, and the overall quality of writing let me skim that to thoroughly enjoy the book. Great emotions and character growth in here, and also lots of fun/funny moments. Really enjoyed Lizzie’s relationship with her roommate, too.
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE this book!!!!
“One of the funniest books I’ve read in years! I didn’t want it to end!”
An absolute joy! Sexy, hilarious, and full of sizzling chemistry–a perfect, delightful beach read Sophie Kinsella fans are sure to enjoy.

I have a new author I will be following and her name is Annika Martin!!!!
Gurllll where have you been in my life?? lol Gahh why am I just finding out about you?? The Billionaire’s Wake-up-call Girl was such a fun loving, lots of cat and mouse chasen’, full of sexual tension, laugh my butt off and such a Hawt as heck book!!!!
Lizzie had to find a job quick. Her no good for nothing, low life jerk ex-boyfriend took off with all her money and made her dream business go down the drain in the process. Anddd, ohhh to boot, his actions has made loan sharks come after her!!! Lizzie had to make some money real quick and working for Vossameer Inc, she may have just found a way to keep the loan sharks off her back. Sooo if she can do a great job with Vossameer Inc. she will get one Heck of a bonus that she can use to pay back these jerks!!!
Lizzie begins her job sprucing up Social Media for Vossameer Inc. This was her assignment and she was going to knock it out of the park so she could get this bonus!! The only thing is, she has heard that the CEO Theo Drummond was an jerk, reclusive genius, gruff misanthrope. But she just has to make this work. Then her manager gives her the task of finding a new wake up call service for the not so wonderful CEO. Ohhh she finds out real quick how this is going to be a very hard task to accomplish. Apparently he has already burned all those “wake up” call bridges so she decides she can do this on her own. With a little help/prodding from her very funny BFF. Lizzie already knows how much of a jerk Theo is, so she just goes with the flow and starts waking him up everyday and praying to God that he never figures out who she really is.
Ohhh Heck yessss… I gave The Billionaire’s Wake-up-call Girl 5 “very delicious” Stars!!!
The Billionaire’s Wake-Up-Call Girl by Annika Martin is the story of Theo and Lizzie.
Lizzie once had a successful bakery and a handsome/hunk boyfriend but that boyfriend ended up wiping out her business and take loans out in her name and the bakery name. So much that loan sharks came calling looking for money. So she between selling off items she still needed more money which lead her to work for the company Theo owned. There was a assume sign up bonus she just had to work there for so many days to get it. We just a few days left in meeting the requirements she ended up meeting Theo who liked to keep his company sterile looking and didn’t like a lot of normal things. But he was attracted to her and felt she was a puzzle to unravel which got her in trouble with her nearest boss. That made Lizzie go into survival mode to where she down played her looks and wouldn’t make eye contact with Theo. Then Theo needed a wake-up call service because he told off the last one which Lizzie ended up doing the wake-up calls and each morning she would tell him off.
I so enjoyed this book that I did not put it down until I was finished it. I will now be looking for more books by Ms. Martin!
Loved it!
Without a doubt, Annika Martin writes the absolute best romantic comedy. This book is laugh out loud fun! Theo and Lizzie are exceptional…quirky, sassy, sexy and serious, these two are some of my favorite characters, ever.
The premise of the story is wonderfully unique and well executed. An arrogant, standoffish business exec and his beleaguered but innovative employee square off on his morning wake-up call…it could be silly, but it’s not. It’s smart and sensitive, witty and endearing. There’s a lot of thought and care behind all of Ms Martin’s stories, from the smallest details to the perfect characters…nothing is overlooked.
The Billionaire’s Wake-Up-Call Girl (even the title is brilliant!) is a new favorite, deserving of as many stars as I can give!!
The premise of an employee becoming the boss’s anonymous wake-up-call person is cute and intriguing. Unfortunately, the book almost immediately devolves into unnecessarily disgusting language and ridiculously frequent sex – imaginary sex, phone sex, and physical sex. Don’t waste your time.
Second book in the Billionaires of Manhattan series and my favorite so far! I loved the plot, slightly OTT (which I love), and filled with such fun, sarcasm, dirty words and dirty deeds!
I so enjoyed Lizzie and Theo! Lizzie had skills! I loved that she took her problems in life head-on and never stopped trying to overcome everything her ex did to her. Theo, he came off as coldhearted until you understood the pressure he put on himself to succeed. I just had so much fun with this book!
I already have one more book in this series, but I will own them all!!
You can’t beat Annika Martin for her wicked sense of humor.
This is a new author to me and I’m so glad I took a chance. I kept seeing a snippet of chapter one on my FB account and it intrigue me so I bought the book. I’m very happy I did.
I adored the character of Lizzie!! I loved that she was a strong but caring individual. I liked that she felt real to me with real problems. There were moments in this story that she was rocking a BA boss vibe but other times, you could see her vulnerable and questioning her path. You could understand her passion and desire to do things on her own.
Theo was a man that you disliked immediately but yet secretly craved more of. He actually tells Lizzie this on one of their phone calls. At times, he came off majorly harsh but yet if you take the romanticized part out of it, there are lots of people who are like him. They are single minded, goal orientated and don’t want any fluff or extras. The part I liked most about him was as he got to know Lizzie and she started talking about office atmosphere he was very surprised but this but yet he made the changes. This man grew so much in this book.
The last thing I need to talk about was the chemistry these two had. It was OFF THE CHARTS. At first, when he started asking her charged questions, I thought it was a little soon but he is a man who is use to getting what he wants and not beating around the bush so it made sense as we got to know Theo more.
This was a fun, hot enemies to lovers, work place romance. Lizzie works for Theo’s company and was tasked with finding him a new wake up call service but the service doesn’t deliver so to keep her job she makes the phone call herself but with a twist. I love strong female characters and that was one hundred percent Lizzie. Jason Clarke and Neva Navarre did and amazing job bringing these characters to life. I would definitely recommend this book.
Love, love, love this book. Main characters and the supporting ones are hilarious. A comedy of errors and some scene that had me gasping and laughing in the same breath. One of my favorites in the series with lots of cameos from the previous books. It was silly enough to make me laugh, it was angst-y enough to make me hold my breath, and romantic enough to make me swoon. One of my favorites from this author.
This was my first Annika Martin’s book, and won’t be my last. This is the second book in the Billionaires of Manhattan Series. This story is hilarious, origianl, sweet, and sexy. Theo and Lizzie are opposites attract, but they are so perfect together. Theo is a sexy and handsome CEO. Lizzie is a feisty and adorable employee. OMG! I loved to follow them in their journey to love! Jason Clarke and Neva Nevarre did a fantastic job with the narration. They are perfect as Theo and Lizzie. I enjoyed it! Looking forward to listen to the other audiobooks in the Series. I HIGHLY recommend it.
Loved this book. Very enjoyable.
This book is so funny and sweet!! It was my first time reading/listening to an Annika Martin book and it definitely hooked me in. I listened to this in almost one day, it was that compelling. I loved the characters and story from the beginning and the way the narrators bring them to life is amazing. Theo, the arrogant, gorgeous, brilliant chemist who sees everything as a puzzle to solve is brought to his knees by Lizzie, the sassy, funny baker/ social media genius. The way Lizzie goes about creating a fake wake up call service in order to get the bonus at the end of the month is unconventional and hilarious. I love that Lizzie is head strong, and takes no one’s BS, but sometimes it seemed hard for her to ask or receive help. It’s understandable given her past but sometimes you just gotta learn to give up control. The same with Theo. I loved that they were opposites but still had so much in common. Overall, this story was great! It was sexy, funny with lots of witty sassy banter. The audio is incredible and narrated by the talented Jason Clarke and Neva Nevarre. Jason Clarke never disappoints, he always does an amazing job. This was my first time listening to a narration by Neva, and it was phenomenal! She did a wonderful job with Lizzie and loved how Neva made Lizzie seem real. Please give this book a chance, definitely worth a listen! You will not be disappointed.
This is my first read by Annika Martin
I went into this book with high expectations, which is usually setting myself up for disappointment, but boy does this book deliver and then some!
Lizzie was one of the single most relatable characters I have ever read and Theo… Oh, my heart. He is such an irresistible grump.
The supporting characters were just as relatable, believable, and well fleshed out for their roles.
The writing flowed, made me laugh, made my heart skip a bit, and then break a bit too. And all the swoon *swoon*.
I went and one-clicked the entire series when I was done (in one sitting, BTW)
