The Billionaire Wins the Game

A fun fantasy story - a girl gets her first job out of college, working for a billionaire. Great characters and an interesting (yet predictable) plot made this an easy and quick read.

Pretty good, light in character development and plot, but all around good. Had it been longer I think she could have had more substance, but since it was quick it was shallow. All in all, an enjoyable hour or two to read it (though some blaring grammatical errors bugged me too).

This was a freebie for my Nook and I'm glad. Although the book has a good premise- marriage of convenience, rich guy and poor girl, it fell short of being a great romance. The author has some good plot points, but is seriously in need of a good editor. The story read like fan fiction, but not in a good way. Overall, it was a quick, light read and I enjoyed the dad's interest in helping his sons.

Synopsis:

Joseph Anderson has decided it's time for his three successful sons to find brides. Joseph wants grandchildren to fill his mansion, and he wants them immediately. His eldest son, Lucas, is successful in all areas of his life, except love, and Joseph begins matchmaking. He finds Amy Harper and deems her the perfect daughter-in-law. He just needs to get her and Lucas to both realize they're made for each other.

Lucas Anderson is wealthy, sexy, and stubborn. He has no desire to have any woman enter his life, causing chaos, or using his family's name. Many women have tried, and he's been successful in finding out who they are beneath their false smiles.

Amy Harper was raised in tragic circumstances and doesn't like pampered, rich men show more who have been handed everything with a silver spoon. She spent years finishing her education and then received a job with the Anderson Corporation. She instantly doesn't like her incredibly sexy boss, who is arrogant and thinks every woman should fall at his feet.

When Amy becomes pregnant after one reckless night of passion, she's scared he'll take the baby and run. Lucas is demanding, and used to getting his way, but Amy has just the right amount of spark to ignite his fuse, and challenges him each step of the way.

Lucas's father, Joseph, and his brothers Alex and Mark, offer laughter, love, and support. With the love of Lucas's family, who aren't only rich and successful, but also kind and giving, Amy starts to realize that being wealthy doesn't make or break a man, and starts to picture the happily ever after she never believed in for herself.

My review:

I liked this story. I often get angry at the male characters for their high handed behaviour, but this is all part of what makes a good story. I will definitely read the rest opf the series show less

Review: The Billionaire wins the Game by Melody Anne
3 STARS
This is the first book in the billionaire bachelors series. I liked it wish it did not have the love scenes in so much detail.
Joseph Anderson retired and thinks his three sons should marry and give him grandchildren to play with. He found the perfect wife for Lucas his first child.
Amy Harper had just graduated from collage and Joseph Anderson hired her to be executive secretary for Lucas Anderson now the head of the company.
Lucas had no idea that he had a new secretary and did not want one that he did not choose. Awhile later he was getting jealous anytime Amy was talking with a single guy. Lucas found out that Amy was living in a dangerous situation and moved her out.
Useally show more after the first three months a benafit package was given to new employees but because Amy was in need they were giving it to her now.
Apartment in the their building that was on the top floor. A car that was hers to drive for business and personal that would be replaced every two years with new model of her choosing.
Amy was raised by a junkie and was placed in foster care right before she began high school which was a better life for her and a chance for her to get scholarships she needed for collage.
Lucas and Amy had sex one time and she got pregnant but hid it first few months. Lucas found out they got married right away and than had to figure out their relationship.
It is a typical romance and was enjoyable love Joseph. show less

Great book

Very lovely way to pass an afternoon. I can't wait to read the rest of this series and watch Joseph find a match for the rest of his sons.

I was very disappointed in this book.
Way to much repetitiveness.
Bland.
Definitely not up to Melody Anne's standards.
