REVIEW: The Billionaire’s Favorite Mistake by Jessica Clare

The Billionaire’s Favorite Mistake by Jessica Clare: Greer has been in love with Asher for just about as long as they’ve known each other. She’s set aside her feelings and been his best friend for the last few years while he’s tried to deal with the betrayal of his ex-fiancée. Greer is used to being overlooked as she doesn’t see herself as being beautiful since she’s short, dresses for comfort, and wears glasses.

Greer completely takes Asher by surprise at a mutual friend’s engagement party and they end up having a one-night stand with plenty of complications. Both see each other in a new light following that night, and that night has a major impact on their friendship. Asher has counted on Greer to be there for him and he wasn’t at all prepared for her to ignore him so completely as a result. He’s finally woken up and sees just how much he needs her as more than a friend, but she’s no longer interested.

“Don’t look so pleased to be here. I still hate you.”
“I don’t hate you,” he countered. “And just seeing you convinces me that I need to figure out how to make you like me again.”
She arched an eyebrow at him. “Don’t flirt with me. I know where that ends up, and it’s not a place I ever want to be again.”

Greer and Asher have plenty of chemistry. Neither expected their night to result in a pregnancy, which adds another element to their shifting dynamics. Asher is definitely used to getting his way. He runs his own company and he has a seemingly endless supply of determination and persistence. He has no problem manipulating situations to get the outcome he wants, even if that means maneuvering Greer to get back into her good graces.

“You’re impossible.”
“I am. And this wedding will be impossible unless we work together.”
For a moment, Greer looked as if she were about to cry. “This is blackmail. You know that, right?”

The Billionaire’s Favorite Mistake is an entertaining, fun, humorous, and seriously sexy read that I didn’t want to put down. Jessica Clare created a unique spin on the friends to lovers trope with plenty of colorful characters. Ms. Clare provided great interactions and banter among the characters. The Billionaire’s Favorite Mistake can be read as a standalone book in the Billionaires and Bridesmaids series. Fans of Jaci Burton and Jessica Lemmon will enjoy The Billionaire’s Favorite Mistake.

A hot one night stand between friends might spark true love in the latest Billionaires and Bridesmaids novel from the New York Times bestselling author of Billionaire Takes a Bride.

Greer has always been there for Asher, but she wishes she could break through her shyness and show how much she truly loves him. But after a steamy, mindless fling at Hunter and Gretchen’s engagement party, Greer finds herself tossed aside and forced to admit that you can’t love someone who doesn’t acknowledge you exist.

It’s a shame he got her pregnant.

After his fiancée betrayed him and tanked his business in one fell swoop, Asher has spent his time trying to rebuild his wealth and forget the past. But he doesn’t understand why Greer blew him off after their night together—until he catches a glimpse of her belly.

Now Asher is willing to do whatever it takes to convince Greer she belongs with him. And he’s very skilled at the art of persuasion.
