it was nice

the book was good. it’s a little cheesy at times but it’s also quite funny. it’s like reading a romcom. i finished it in a day and i’m quite tempted to read the rest of the series.

Oh snap! Max and Monroe went back to writing the billionaires that put them on the map. Oh, how I absolutely adored their first series. But these are a new crop of billionaires and I cannot wait to see what happens next!

This new series has everything I’ve loved about their previous books, laugh out loud hilarity, killer banter, and oodles of sexiness. The sexual tension in this book is off the mother fluffing charts! Annnndddddd, it’s a slow burn. Bonus points for that.

A fantastic start to a new series, The Billionaire Boss Next Door checked all my boxes and left me with a big cheesy grin on my face. I can’t wait until the next book!

P.S. I still want books for Winnie’s brothers, Max Monroe. Maybe they can be the next series? Pretty please

I liked Greer's moxy, she's funny and likeable as a character. Turner was fine after he became less of an as§hole, but that took quite a while. If you like smutty books that's not what this is - very docile in terms of steamy times, but it did make me laugh. I like books that make me laugh - but I wouldn't describe this book as hilarious like some do. I laughed a few times. I'm not totally sure if I'll continue the series or not. Perhaps one day when I'm feeling I need a fix if the billionaire trope.

I think my rating and the fact that I can’t remember for the life of me what I read in this one speaks enough of my opinion. It wasn’t bad! I do remember that much. I just remember having a lot of problems with it. I do like the writing and how fast and fun it is!
I’m literally sitting over here reading the synopsis to try and remember what happened in this book. I think it’s coming back to me- oh the flashbacks *le sigh*.
It was just very ridiculous and unbelievable I think? But then again I shouldn’t expect realistic from a book names “The Billionaire Boss Next Door” am I right? Or am I right?

Witty and cute

I thoroughly enjoyed Trent and Greer’s story. A New Years kiss at a masked party, then the two part without finding out who each other are. Meanwhile enemies become friends who become more. It’s a simple, but loveable plot.

The sex scenes are almost fade to black. They’re a little more than that. So, if you’re looking for intense scenes that leave you searching for release, this isn’t quite for you.

Overall, it’s a good book and worth reading. Happy reading y’all!

Laugh-out-loud funny that will also tug at your heartstrings! Greer is sassy and fun and Trent has a lot riding on this new project. Their hate explodes into a spicy romance and I couldn’t put this one down.

3-3.5 stars.

Listened to this on audio. The narrators were ones I've heard before and I liked them but there were little things that annoyed me with the audio. First off the female narrator had weird pauses and spoke a little slower than the male narrator. And I wasn't a fan of the male narrator's female voice, it started to grate near the end of the audiobook.

As for the story, this was similar to other Max Monroe books with the amount and kind of humor it had, which I love. However I wasn't swept away with the romance. They don't even go on a date (and it didn't even start as a date...with each other) till 75-80% through the book. Yea, they are attracted to each other but besides having some banter-y interactions I didn't feel a lot of chemistry between them. By the end I mostly saw them as friends but not as lovers.

I wasn't really that satisfied with the office romance trope here. Yes, he's her boss but besides a couple "oops" moments, they only had 1 day where they were dating and still working together.

Overall this was fun but not one I'll really remember, which is sad because I usually remember their books pretty well.
