Married for the Tycoon's Empire (Brides for Billionaires, 1) Mass Market Paperback – September 20, 2016

Good read

This is the first of four billionaires who have run foul with the trash media. They all decided to clean up their image by marriages of convenience. It seems like a good idea. That is until.... This is Ben's story and his own desire for convenience becomes more than he first thought.

It was not very exciting. Took too long to get going.She annoyed me a bit. It had some good points, but not enough. Not sure that I would read again.

I was disappointed in the story. I was bored halfwaythrow the book.It could have been a lot better. Expected more from this author.

Carter construction is getting bad press and Ben Carter cannot afford to lose his reputation.  So together with his 3 other adversary business men they decide to find a way to clean up their act. They decide to find a wife and to start they all join a matchmaking agency called Leviathan.   Lia short for Julianna is furious, she finds out that her father has put her name into a matchmaking agency to find her a date so she can finally settle down.  So from here you have a pretty good idea what is going to occur.  Yes they go on a date, yes he finds out her father is the owner of the construction company he wanted to take over, yes he finds out he is not well.  No she won't give in and fights him tooth and nail.  So he pays a million dollars for a kiss and a weekend at an auction for charity.  A wonderful story and you will find out that inside Ben had a dark past that truly casts shade on his life but will Julianna be the one to let the sun finally shine on him . A keeper and a book that will remind you why you love romance stories so much.

Loved this story. It is the first in a series of four which I intend to read. Four alpha men who need to clean up their images and find someone to marry. Can't wait to start the next book.

Juliana ,’might not be royalty’, but is ‘a princess’, to Ben Carter! ‘He didn’t even look at her bio. He was transfixed by her picture’.’She was laughing into the camera, revealing two dimples’. ‘Dark blue eyes, long lashed.’ ‘A lush mouth and exquisitely, vibrantly beautiful.’ ‘She was the spoiled and pampered only daughter of a doting billionaire father.’ On the other hand ,’It had taken Lia a few long seconds to look past the piercing blue eyes and the boldly handsome and very masculine features’, of the American billionaire construction Mogul Ben. ‘She ran into a brick wall’.’Very tall, very male, very broad, with piercing blue eyes’. To him, ’She was stunning. Exquisite.’ ‘Her refined elegance was impacting upon him somewhere deep’.’And then she cannoned straight into him.’ ‘Her upper crust accent , had just pulled the rug out from under Ben’s feet’.’He wanted her more than he’d ever wanted another woman’.’You’re exquisite ---do you know that?’‘It’s very simple , Lia . I want you.’ ’Sweetheart, I just proved there’s enough electricity between us to power a small nation, so it was inevitable’.Now read on romantic readers. One of the great Classic, contemporary writers Abby Green has spun a beautiful fairy tale which shows her creative ability to have an engaging plot , with hardly any extraneous detail, plenty of sparring, cross purpose dialogues, wry wit to keep the pages turning at one go. The characters do develop and happily their issues are resolved by the end of the story. Superb, a must buy to grace your home library or dip into the kindle whenever you want!
