Charmed by the Billionaire by Jessica Lemmon: Having spent the majority of her life taking care of her two younger brother, Cristin has really put her own life on the back burner. But now with her youngest brother of to college Cris has time to reflect on what she has been missing out on and one very big thing being experiencing a grown up relationship. Heck she still has her V card very much intact! So when her hottie boss/bestie overhears that he has been the star in all her late night fantasies things take a steamy turn for Cristin.

“We’re not having no-holds-barred fun in your pants because we’re out of Post-its?” he asks, droll. “Pen refills, actually.”

Benji has had a thing for his assistant life coach/best friend for a while now but never having acted on it in fear of messing up their relationship, but all that changes when he overhears that Cristin is very much into him. Soon what was supposed to be just two friends helping each other out turns into very real feelings but will Benji be able to convince Cris that he is in it for the long haul?

I love a good friends to lovers romance and this was just what I wanted! I absolutely loved watching these two friends fall in love, their relationship was super cute. I loved the way that Cris just knew Benji be it his tone or a look he had, she just knew what was up. I think it was their genuine friendship that helped make loving them as a couple all that much more sweet.

“I didn’t know what love was until I found you. My true north. My Firecracker.”

Benji was an absolute sweetheart, I loved that he was so romantic and sweet without even realizing that he was doing it. But it was his cocky dirty sense of humor that made him such a loveable hero. As for Cristin, how can you not love her? She so selflessly gave up school and put her own life on hold to take care of her younger brothers when their mother abandoned them. I loved that she was such a strong female character and one that didn’t sit and cry woe me but instead got up and got things done. This is exactly what made her finding such a sweetie like Benji all the more perfect.

Charmed By The Billionaire was the perfect friends to lovers romance that had me hooked from chapter one and rooting for this couple to find their happily ever after. This is definitely one to add to the top of your TBR!

The day you overhear your best friend say she’d like to have sex with you is a damn good day. But, hey, Cris always takes care of me at work. What’s wrong with me taking care of one of her needs? Besides, it’s only temporary.

One breathless encounter later, I learn two things: 1) We are compatible in ways that exceed our working relationship and 2) She’s chosen me to be her first. Most guys might balk at the responsibility. Not me. Put me in, coach.

But when it comes time to wrap up our sextra-curricular activities, my heart is doing its first ever free-fall. Now I’m scrambling to convince her she’s found her Prince Charming—spoiler alert: it’s me—and that forever isn’t a fairy tale.
