More Good Stuff From the Rebel Billionaire

Half of this tells the same stories from the first volume, "Losing My Virginity," but the additional stories definitely make it worthwhile ;D

Great Book. Love these stories. He's about to open up shop again. Love WallStreet. More Powerful than the Cartels.

The second Moon Knight collection is a fine example of fast-paced super-hero action combined with complex characterization and well above average plotting. Moon Knight has moved beyond his start as a villain and his interlude as a supporting character and has now reached maturity as a fully developed concept. The concept is not totally original but is well executed. The former villain seeking redemption as a hero had been done before at Marvel but scripter Doug Moench shows that redemption comes with a very heavy price and Moon Knight struggles mightily paying that price.

Another strength of this feature is the large and well used supporting cast. These include his girlfriend Marlene, pilot Frenchie, butler Samuels, and housekeeper Nedda who act as a staff to Moon Knight and share to varying extents his secrets. The other group works with him in his taxi driver Jake Lockley identity and congregate at Gena's diner and are ostensibly ignorant of Moon Knight's various identities. Homeless and elderly but well connected Crawley shines in this group. Guest appearances include Daredevil and Brother Voodoo.

The plots are not always models of realism but are generally well executed. Some are standalone single issue gems like the first one, "Ghost Story" and "Stain Glass Scarlet". Others are multipart stories like the battles against Bushman and allies, Morpheus, and Nimrod Strange. There are also a few pre-Moon Knight Marc Spector flashback stories.

The art is for the most part done by Bill Sienkiewicz. I didn't like him on New Mutants but his pencils work much better here matching the tone of the stories precisely. The continuity of the Moench/Sienkiewicz team is a big component of this collection's excellence although other writers and artists contribute.

All in all this collection is wonderful value for the money. I encourage the prospective reader to buy the format which suits him; I bought the Kindle edition. This can be read on either the Kindle or Comixology ap. I prefer the latter for its superior navigation features but both provide an enjoyable reading experience.

You do not really need the first collection to enjoy this one but I do recommend it as getting up to speed might be a little frustrating.

Highly recommended. I look forward to the next one.

The Billionaires Club: New York boxed set includes three intoxicating stories about bad boy billionaire brothers. These short, stand-alone stories have a lot of heat and the pages are on fire as these sexy men meet their match and fall in love.

THE BILLION DOLLAR BACHELOR is a story about Jax Morrow, CEO of Morrow Inc. and Pandora Garret the daughter of one New Yorks biggest crime lords.  At twenty-five, Pandora has never known freedom, because her father insists on sheltering her from everything.  When she learns he is planning to marry her off to a cold, ruthless man more than twice her age, she runs away.  Once Jax meets Pandora, she makes him question his priorities and Pandora finds freedom for the first time in her life.

THE BILLION DOLLAR BAD BOY revolves around Donovan Morrow and Victoria de Winter.  They meet when she makes a presentation to him and he cant keep his mind on what shes saying.  He isn't interested in her deal, but he is interested in what is under her prim outfit.  She is cool and calm and he wants to see the woman hidden underneath the cool reserve.  Victoria has never met anyone like Donovan; he makes her feel things she has never felt before.  They slowly break down each others walls and all the insecurities they keep locked inside.

THE BILLIONAIRE BIKER is an engaging book about a bad boy biker who has a hard time fitting in with his wealthy family.  Sean Donovan runs away from his family and Abby Prescott, the one person who cares about him.  After leaving his family, he joins the Avenging Angels Motorcycle Club.  When Sean returns home and sees Abby again, there is still a strong attraction, but Sean does his best to ignore his feelings.  Sean he is a tough guy who, tries his best to hide his tender heart.

I fell in love with these three charming brothers and their feisty, sexy women.  These three sensual books include passion, romance and lots of steamy scenes.

Great entertainment.  He is a fantastic author, with his wealth of real experience I think he is one of the best writers of our time.  Every chapter has a new unexpected plot twist or fascinating insight and I highly recommend this book.  I'm very curious if he can produce something as intense with his next book.

As for the travel writing aspects of the book, he does glamorize a group of westerners basically not doing anything more productive in Mumbai than committing petty crimes, but his knowledge of the local language, personalities and daily life are the strong points of the book and more than make up for that.  A mumbai madarrchod I know related a few stories of local gangsters that are very similar to the book.

I also recommend the first hand narrative 'maximum city' which describes the city from a few other angles as well but is not quite the pageturner that Shantaram is.

After reading about the slums I do wish overseas indian billionaires would donate money to help education back home rather than give it to ivy league universities that have no need.  anyone have any ideas how to make that happen?

I just really like all his books.  I read pretty quickly so I love that his books are a little bit longer than most books of this kind.  Plus, it feels like he's starting to wrap things up about 3/4 of the way through the book and realize you have a whole 1/4 to read.  I enjoy his characters and find myself emotionally attached to them.

This is a stand alone in the Billionaires in the City series, and while it can mostly be read by itself there were so many things happening and backstories weaved into the story that I think I would have benefited from reading the others first. I enjoyed the fast pace of the story and the banter through out the book. It was also refreshing that Luke was not an alpha billionaire that demanded everything and got pissy when he didn't get his way. He may have stacked the deck to get his way but he wasn't overly pushy and my way or the highway as so many are today.

This is the story of Luke Devereaux, a billionaire mixed up with white collar criminals and Evelyn Price, the tough FBI agent tasked with protecting/helping bring them down. They start the book fighting all the time and hating each other, which of course leads to smoking chemistry down the line. I didn't really understand why they hated each other from this book, but maybe it was better explained in the previous book.

Things moved pretty quickly for the case and the duo's slow burn of a relationship. Once they realized their attraction it was hard to ignore. So much so that Evelyn was distracted from her job and tried to step back to focus on the case. There was angst and drama and suspense right up until the very last page that kept you wanting to know what would happen next. That made this book a fun quick read.

If you enjoy reading Alpha Billionaire romance stories that have a pretty hot sex scene or two as a teaser, you'll enjoy this. It's a short and quick read that will keep you entertained and engaged the whole time. You'll get a surprisingly few good laughs. Plus, the ending will leave you wanting to download the next book.

I always enjoy reading about how wealthy people think and this book did not disappoint.  He isn't going to win a pulitzer for his work but that's sort of the point.  It is raw and genuine and I had the impression that he wrote a lot of this off the cuff without going back over it and editing it numerous times.

It isn't filled with self-help, motivational drivel but instead is a look into things he did to become successful.  It is a quick read and well worth the cost and time.

After the cliff-hanger in the first book, I jumped right over and grabbed this second book in the Billionaires Underground series.  Malcolm Cage has taken Victoria's identity away from her, which has left her with no choice but to do his bidding.  This is pretty hot at times.  Despite it being sort of a jerk move, he begins to feel guilty about it.  His conscience really starts to get to him as Victoria's life becomes threatened because of his actions.  Another really well-written book with tons great sex scenes that really deliver.  Looking forward to Book 3 for sure.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

I really enjoyed reading this set! Individually, each book is amazing so it's really nice to be able to get them as a set.

Each book follows a billionaire who is looking for something or someone. The fun is discovering what that is for each.

Wow, this was definitely fun and uniqueoutside the current mainstream of mountain men, virgin auctions, and bad boy what-evers.  On the one hand weve got a super-hot, self-made billionaire who definitely doesnt fit into the standard alpha billionaire mold.  Magnus has got some serious baggage, hed rather have pizza at home than dine in a 5 star restaurant, and hes really not into crowds.

Then weve got Lesli.  Shes book-smart/relationship stupid.  Shes lightyears ahead of most people when it comes to brain power, and thats pretty much made her socially inept.  She has NO sense of fashion, and talk about baggage yeesh.  This chick has so much baggage trailing her she thinks it belongs to someone else.

So thru fate and some wrangling, our two brilliant, nerdy, sweet, and slightly psychotic lovebirds manage to discover they do indeed have some pretty amazing chemistry going on.  All seems goodgreat evenfor a few hours.  But Lesli, the Queen of Denial, just cant seem to get out of her brilliant mind long enough to enjoy their budding relationship.  However, the handsome and persistent Magnus hasn't given up on her yet.  Lesli and Magnus will be competing as team members on a TV game show called Brain Pain to raise money for the charity where she works.  Now things really go nuts. *facepalm*

The distinctive nature of this plot was really enjoyable.  Magnus and Lesli have great chemistry, and are fun characters because of their utterly flawed natures.  Even the peripheral characters in this story are nicely developed, very engaging, and just great to be around.  So load this book, sit back, and have a sweet n steamy good time!

Here we find the Billionaire couple fighting yet another sinister individual who is obsessed with the heroine of our story.  This story also further delves into the life of the brother of the mega singing star billionaire who has now come to the end of his college days, finds out he has a penchant for the acting stage and makes splash on the silver screen, even though it is opposite the one who almost made him lose his life in the last installment of this family's saga.  He now has a new love interest, also a college grad with him on her way to becoming a doctor.  During all of the other things going on around them, Derek and Debra's son Malcolm who is now three years old is about to get a little sister.  The advent of being pregnant is what pushes the psychopath stalking Debra over the brink and into her office where he threatens to kill her. I love this story and all of the characters old and new even Jade who wreaked so much havoc on Tyler Derek's brother in the last installment who gets kindness and sympathy from Tyler when she falls for a Rapper who dogs her out!  I do not want to give too much away because I truly want you to pick up your own copy and enjoy reading the entire story for yourself.  Happy reading.

Ah, another chance to revel in the world of the filthy rich. How rich? Well, how about a guy who buys two luxurious homes and a New York penthouse apartment for a mere $138 million, writing a check on the spot? Getting a look into the world as I'll never see it is, I suppose, one of the reasons I keep reading the books featuring near-billionaire New York attorney Stone Barrington, who hops in his fancy airplane (piloting it himself, of course) on a whim and is a personal friend of the first female President of the United States. It's for sure it's not because of the can't-put-it-down plot or nail-biting action; no, the most excitement Barrington and his friends get is being surprised at the choice of wine at dinner. For readers, it's likely to be which of the "ladies" will hop into Barrington's bed and which will be invited back.

It is a lady, of course, who gets the ball rolling here; her ex-husband, she claims, is out to kill her and she's got big bucks to pay for Barrington's legal help. Then a body turns up in a fancy mansion - conveniently next door to the mansion at which Barrington is a guest (a shift in the wind alerts his former cop nose that something is amiss). The victim has ties to his client's former husband, and the chase is on to find the guy before someone else bites the dust.

That chase leads to the discovery of an infamous and near priceless piece of jewelry, giving Barrington and his police friends a probable motive and Barrington a reason to hobnob with a colleague from exclusive auction house Sotheby's. Now all they have to do is find the murderer - and they put their minds to that task in between going to dinner parties, hopping in and out of the shower and arranging for property appraisals. Priorities, folks, priorities!

When it comes to ratings, I always waffle between 3 and 4 stars. But I must admit that despite my grousing, I rather enjoy this series (most likely because over the years I've simply become used to the banality of the stories and the ho-hum banter among the characters). The books - this is the 36th in the series, BTW - are great for deck or beach reading or when my brain is tired and balking at being challenged. Short chapters make it easy to stop any time I get the urge to do something else; reading this one in its entirety didn't waste much more than half a day.

What did I like?  I really enjoy this, it was a quick read and each of the books thereafter was the same.  I was lucky and was able to read them all one after the other and not have to wait till the next one came out.  They were romantic stories full of humor, laughs, secrets, mysteries, and poignancy.  The characters were fantastic and quirky with that romantic twist.  Each story being a stepping stone to the final book and really should be read as I did (one after the other).

What will you like?  As I said quick reads with the modern twist on the old fashion romances.  Updated to the lifestyles of today and yet with that old fashion thing in it called LOVE!  Even though these are novellas they are well developed and you can see the work of the authors research.  I think you will fall in love with each of the characters and will be caught up in the storyline.  You will enjoy each book with all the twists and unexpected turns.  The rich part of the books is how all the characters interact through the series with the big finale in the last book.  As I read I just couldn't wait to get to the next book.  I am looking forward to maybe seeing this couple brought up in other books so we can see how they are.  Hint, Hint!
