Discovering Mr X : A Billionaire Romance (The Men Series - Interconnected Standalone Romances Book 2) Kindle Edition

4.5 out of 5 stars 5,668 ratings

I gave a stranger some advice that changed his life… 18months later he’s back, determined to change mine.

I’m a flight attendant who sells my worn lingerie to the highest bidder.

The mysterious Mr. X insists on being my only client, and pays generously for the privilege.

Soon I’ve saved enough to make my lifelong dream come true;

A home of my own.

Until a giant ego in a designer suit steals it.

He’s smug, arrogant, infuriating…

And completely gorgeous.

He claims he feels bad about taking my dream house. So he offers to find me another.

Then he turns up to help paint it… shirtless.

Even my pet house rabbit starts to like him.

But I can’t let myself fall for him.

I don’t do love.

And I certainly don’t do rich CEOs who seem to know a lot about me… do I?

★★★★★

What to expect: enemies to lovers (her), pining (him), a cute house rabbit, a side business that causes a lot of drama, angst, spice, banter, a man who fell the moment he saw her… even if she doesn’t remember him, and a happy ever after, because love always wins.

Elle Nicoll

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Elle Nicoll is a British author, and ex long-haul flight attendant, who spent years travelling the world and dreaming up stories whilst trying to stay awake on night flights.

She writes very steamy, emotional, swoony, contemporary romance novels, all based around love.

Elle loves putting her characters through challenges that make them grow from the beginning of the story, until their HEA. They have to fight hard for it... but when they get there, it's so worth it.

All of Elle's characters are different. Whether they are a brooding CEO, the best friend who always held the heroine in his heart, a Hollywood heartthrob, or a silver fox with gentlemanly manners and a deliciously filthy tongue. They are all unique and infuriating in their own way.

Because no one is perfect.

When Elle isn't writing she is either on her spinning bike (the source of where many ideas come to her), or getting excited about adding to her crystal collection (Yes, she loves them. Those and vegan candles).

It means the world to Elle that you're reading her stories, and she loves to hear from readers.

Find her at www.ellenicollauthor.com, or follow her on FB, IG and TT, where you can keep up to date with her latest news and releases.

    WOW. Elle REALLY stepped up her game in this book! I enjoyed Meeting Mr. Anderson but I LOVED Mr. X!!
    .
    Rachel is Holly’s strong and sassy BFF with a complicated past who is doing her best to fulfill her dream of owning her own home. Not just because it’s something people do but because to Rachel this will be her first “home” and she’s waited her entire life for it.
    Cue Mr. X standing in line behind her and Holly at the airport accidentally eavesdropping on their conversation and how Rachel has employed a unique business to help her reach her goal for buying her home. Nevermind the fact that she’s the most beautiful woman he’s ever seen immediately dubbing her “Snow” since she looks so much like Snow White. When suddenly he hears her say “Difficult roads lead to beautiful destinations” and he’s instantly even more drawn to her.
    .
    Mr. X becomes a client of Rachel’s and as she finally gets enough money to buy her home she and her roommate go to auction for a house Rachel has been set on. Unfortunately Tanner Grayson is also there and determined to buy the house as well. Being a successful businessman he succeeds and incurs Rachel’s wrath.
    Then he realizes that Rachel is his Snow.
    Tanner is determined to get to know Rachel and spend more time with her. However Rachel is not the trusting type or the relationship type as she prefers friends with benefits so she doesn’t risk being hurt.
    .
    Ohhhhhh how this story tugged at my heart!!! Rachel is such a beautiful soul who suffered more than anyone should, causing her to guard herself so fiercely no one can get in. Tanner is 100% ready to break down her walls but he recognizes that she’s skittish when it comes to feelings so they take things slow. Of course nothing is ever easy and when Mr. X’s real identity is revealed it threatens the only happiness Rachel has ever known.

    An interesting premise but stuffed with too much fluff. Fluff being lots of sex, pages and pages of it. I don't mind reading about it but it gets tiresome and redundant when it seems every chapter contains pages and pages of Rachel and Tanner going at it. BORING ! Oh well, books can't all be great !
  • Reviewed in the United States on November 2, 2024
    I really enjoyed reading this book. Strangers in an airport, a tip that nets him millions and a secret thank you… then they meet later and he’s accidentally rained on her parade. The way he wins her over is precious, their banter is perfect and their friends are so fun! And sweet Nigel lol. Of course you can’t have a romance book without the third act breakup where the secret is exposed… there’s no grovel but their reconnection brought tears to my eyes. All in all it was a very good story and the spice was plenty!

    This one was much better then Mr.Anderson. tanner was such a golden retriever but damn on the bedroom he was such a man. I knew, based on reading about her in that book, that she would be a great character! The dirty talk from the females in this series is great and refreshing! I loved how she stayed strong throughout the whone book! To many times, the females cave so easily. It's almost impossible to find a romance with a strong woman in control of her physical reactions and attraction. Most books write a female emotionally weak and that we can't contain ourselves over a gorgeous man. It's insulting, but I still read them. Lol.

    The ending had me going!! Was not expecting that, but I should have seen it coming. *Wink wink* LOL. If you're looking for something with lots of snark, GREAT SPICE, love, heartache, drama, and good times, then this is for you. Join Rach on her rollercoaster and see where it ends. It's worth it.

    Tanner and Rachel’s story, Rachel works as a flight attendant with a sideline of selling her knickers yikes, she has a secret buyer that buys them all, it’s to help her buy her own home. Tanner is a developer and accidently buys the house she wants in an auction, it’s a funny story and Rachel is really sassy and hollys best friend from again the first story of meeting mr Anderson. I borrowed the first story from prime and it’s what got me hooked on this series of fun steamy amazing well written stories

    He overhears a conversation in a coffee shop and stays to hear more after hearing her say a certain phrase.
    Then she helps him, not knowing how much.
    For 18 months he "repays" her secretly.
    Then they meet unexpectedly but she doesn't recognise him, but he does.
    Now, he wants her....but she hates him
    There's romance, funny banter, sadness in this story.
    Very enjoyable read.

    “It’s not being with you that makes me nervous,” he says, his eyes rising to meet mine again, “it’s the thought of being without you that does.”

    I loved the concept for a female lead to be a stewardess in The Wedding Date. So I was happy when I stumbled on a story with a flight attendant in this book. Rachel is carrier and goal driven so she is basically a boss bitch. I like her. Tanner is also goal focused but clever, ooohhh soooo clever! This book had many well-placed surprises and I enjoyed it very much including the spice! If you want to know more about websites selling worn panties you should not miss this one my smut lovers.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Nice spicy light read
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 27, 2023
    Overall rating 3.5/5. Nice spicy light read.

    Pros:

    Book 2 is much better than book 1. Writing style has improved. Better character dialogue. Conflict was more believable.
    Book 2 has more depth. Enjoyed the two person POV style.
    Rachel and Tanner had great chemistry.
    Some of the sex scenes were scorching.
    It was lovely catching up with previous supporting characters.
    I enjoyed the plot twist regarding Rachel and Tanner’s shared history.
    Loved the HEA

    Cons:

    Too many sex scenes. Almost every chapter there was a graphic sex scene. Sometimes less is more.
    I wasn’t a fan of Rachel’s character in the beginning. I thought she came across as too prickly and a bit harsh. Character became more relatable and less one dimensional once she admitted that she had feelings for Tanner.
    Tanner was a bit flat as a character.
    Ending felt rushed.
    No epilogue
