Love don’t cost a thing…except everything.

When billionaire mogul James Preston hires an escort as a date for his brother’s wedding, he knows he’s taking a risk. One thing he won’t be taking? The escort’s clothes off. He just wants a date—not a girlfriend. Not a relationship. No strings. No ties. No games. No sex. He has his reasons. He lost someone he loved, and isn’t interested in trying again. Too many opportunities for mistakes or worse, heartbreak.

Audrey Reynolds became a high-end escort to keep her brother in his expensive group home. James Preston is the client of her dreams—he’s offering to pay her more money for two weeks than she’s ever made before. But James is...difficult. He’s gorgeous, troubled and all too human for Audrey's business-like tastes. Determined to complete her assignment and collect the money, Audrey tries to play by James’s rules. But before she knows what's happening, he's rewriting the contract.

When Audrey ends up in James’s bed, he realizes that she’s everything he’s wanted…and everything he’s been running from.

This is PART ONE of the Escorting the Billionaire New Adult romance trilogy. It is novella-length (30,000 words) and has a wicked cliffhanger.

My Thoughts:

This is the first in a three part series. I knew going into it that I would most likely need to know what happens next, but I went into it anyway because the synopsis was too intriguing to pass it up. Turns out, it was definitely intriguing AND I'm very interested in seeing what happens next.

James and Audrey fight the connection they have because he doesn't want to take it any further than just business. But when two people feel deep down that they want more, it's going to be impossible to resist... which is exactly what happened.

Escorting the Billionaire is a great start to this series. Even though the cliffhanger didn't really leave me hanging, I still thoroughly enjoyed the story, and can't wait to pick up the next installment from Leigh James!

My Rating:
