Summary Bronte, was thrilled when she won a trip to a Bahama resort, but her luck turns when a hurricane comes in, and during the chaos she is stuck in a elevator with a man she believes to be the manager of the resort. After some time, they realize that no one is coming for them, and they must rescue themselves. They manage to get out of the elevator, and find the resort abandoned, both Bronte and Logan forgotten. They spend days together, and a connection forms, passion erupts and they spend those precious days together learning each other, but then Bronte learns when they are rescued who Logan really is, a Billionaire that became the resorts newest owner. And before Bronte realizes it she is thrown into a world that is so unknown to her, a world that she isn’t sure she can fit into to, but will the love Bronte and Logan have be enough to last? The Hero Logan, is a billionaire, and is part of a brotherhood that became close friends in college and they made a pact with each other. A pact that must remain secret at all costs. Logan, doesn’t know love or affection. All he knows is the greed of women, and how they just see him for his credit card and not as a real person. He has little faith in women until he meets Bronte who charms him with her knowledge of Plato and is so honest and genuine that he can’t resist her. What was truly fun about Logan as the hero, is that he is a man that wants something real in a relationship. You see how he needs it and isn’t afraid to admit it or when he is wrong. He is much deeper than a rich businessman, we see how much he needs love and a woman that will stand up to him. The Heroine Bronte, is a heroine that you just admire, and she sparks some interest in ancient history. Bronte has a degree in ancient history, but still works as a waitress because despite the horrid pay, she loves working with people. She is carefree and down to earth, and loves the simple things in life. What was most fun about Bronte as a character was seeing how she handles conflict and challenge. She is quite brave and she maintains her own identity when brought into Logan’s world of prestige and wealth. Plot and Story Line I have been hearing some great things about this series, so I decided to read the first book up, and boy did I love this story. It just kept me so interested and involved, and the authors writing is superb…I love the way she makes the reader fall in love with the story. I am not always a big fan of billionaire romances, they have to be done right, and despite my reservations, I fell for this story hard. I loved everything about it. From the island fling that Logan and Bronte have, to making love in a freezer, how Bronte wins over his friends, and the way she gets Logan to become humble…and even the signs of another love story that is in the next book. What was most fun about this story was seeing how Logan and Bronte flounded their way through a relationship, both side makes mistakes but I found that most endearing…seeing them make mistakes but still find a way to work as a team and make a future together. There was many aspects of their relationship that was easy to relate with in a very realistic way. From beginning to end, I found myself falling in love with this story…with its charm and poignant love story…its guaranteed to warm your heart. The Cover I honestly don’t know what I think about this one. In all honest I like it, I don’t mind a little bling-bling, but what my issue is how it relates with the story. I do prefer something that connects better with the story and characters. So as of right now I am undecided if I love it or not. Overall View Stranded With A Billionaire is a charming love story that shows how love tests us all in ways we don’t quite imagine. This is a love story that promotes passion and raw emotion, and learning to trust again. Heartwarming from beginning to end!!

Find this review and more at kimberlyfaye reads. Jessica Clare’s Billionaire Boys Club series has been on my radar for awhile now. I even owned three of the books in paperback. But, as tends to happen, I’d just not made time to read them. Well, last week when I was at the Berkley offices in NYC, her publicist talked about how she’d recently binged them and all her raving made me decide it was finally time to take the leap. Oh, am I glad I did. There are six books in this series (and an upcoming novella… and a spinoff series…) so I’ve got quite a bit of reading ahead of me. The good news is, at the time I wrote this post, I’ve devoured the first five books in this series… in less than a week. And you know what? I regret nothing. Stranded with a Billionaire was a great book that definitely captured my attention and got me hooked on these characters. While I wouldn’t ever want to be stuck in an elevator (or on an island during a hurricane), no matter how hot the guy I was with is, I love the “trapped” trope when it comes to books. There’s something about the way characters get to know each other and connect during a time when they’re stuck that is real and holds my attention. In this case, it was fun to watch Billionaire Logan and waitress Brontë come together in what had to be really scary circumstances on the island. I won’t even talk about the elevator because just thinking about that scenario damn near gives me a panic attack. Of course, it was made more interesting by the fact that the reader knew the full truth about Logan’s situation and Brontë was clueless. I knew without a doubt it would cause some drama when the whole story came out, but I couldn’t wait to see how it would all unfold. I was totally hooked on these characters and their chemistry. Getting a chance to watch them grow was worth any of the drama that resulted from him keeping his situation secret. Despite not being a huge fan of the billionaire trope in general, this book really worked for me. I adored Logan and Brontë. The secondary cast of characters were intriguing and definitely made me want to continue reading so I could get their stories as well. It was super sexy, but still sweet and funny at times, too. I love romance and I’m definitely hooked on this series. I received a copy of this book from the publisher, via NetGalley, in exchange for an honest review.
