A bad boy billionaire with an ego the size of a mainframe computer.

BIG whoop!

“How did you get up here?” I ask him.


“My self-regard beat up the security detail downstairs,” he says. “After that, it was just a quick elevator ride to the second floor.”

I can play that game.

“You could both fit into the elevator?”

I don’t do cocky billionaire players who want to make me their next conquest.

All he wants is lunch. Yeah, right.

“You’re going to ask out a woman you haven’t known for even a hot five minutes?”

“Any five-minute stretch of time in your presence automatically qualifies as a hot five minutes.”

Dang.

It’s not like he’s got a jet that could fly us half way around the world for lunch.

Right?

And it’s not like the jet has a bedroom . . . with a mirrored ceiling.

Oh f***!


You’ll love this book because everyone enjoys a steamy romantic comedy with an unexpected twist. Get it now!

Damian is the face of a multi-billion-dollar tech company with a rep to uphold. Damian is used to getting his way especially with the ladies. Damian realizes his money does not impress Gigi. She has throws him off his game. Damian doesn’t take no from Gigi and gets her to agree to dinner finally. They have a great time, but when their dinner date is over Gigi does not return Damian calls and seems to vanish with no note or contact. Will Damian give up and not find out what happen to Gigi and his feeling towards her? Gigi gets a call from her parents when tragic strikes and she realizes what a horrible daughter she has been. She knows the best thing is to put her life and career on hold including Damian who has intrigue her and return home. I enjoyed reading this book.

    A sweet simple story of a poor country girl Georgina/Gigi Stevens and a tech titan Damian Black. Gigi was able to leave her home town on an academic scholarship to Brown University. There she majored in computer classes. She met her best friend Judy Mixson a trust fund baby working her way through Brown. The two of them settled down In San Francisco Silicon Valley for work. Gigi Stevens twenty-three is young and beautiful. She works in a male dominated field. She is witty, playful and a sense of humor. Everyone who's anyone knows Damian Black. He made his billions in the tech field. He gave a blow out party for cancer research. That's where he met Gigi. He then tracked her down and they started to date. This story covers a lot of feelings and emotions, fear, shame, nervousness, attraction and romance. Gigi was running away from her past and Damian did not know what his future would hold now that Gigi was a part of it. Gigi plans everything in her life. She has goals and works toward them. Damian's work philosophy is work is work and he is dang good and pleasure is pleasure and the twain shall never meet. As Damian get to know Gigi, he feels unsure and nervous. He doesn't understand it. He was not the type to be unsure or nervous. But now that he was getting to know Gigi, she changed his outlook on life. She gets an urgent call from her parents that she has not spoken to in five years. Her father is not well. Gigi feels so many emotions, guilt, fear and shame. She puts her life on hold to be there for them. She feels that this is the end of her career and that she no longer has anything to look forward to. She equates returning to her home as failure, which it is not. An enjoyable read.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Arrogant and caring are not mutually exclusive
    Reviewed in the United States on October 4, 2018

    Our hero is arrogant, self-confessed. But as he points out, it is necessary for him to do his job as front man for the latest technology company. Our heroine is attracted to him, but doesn't want to be another notch in his bedpost. Can they make the two views work together?

    This is a romance story, so of course they will figure it out, but the story is about the journey. Our hero has to woo the girl and come to realize a steady relationship is not a bad thing. And our heroine has to overcome her own feelings to inadequacy and accept herself for who she is. The result is a very nice HEA.

    This story is novella length, so a very reasonable commitment of time. I found the characters to be realistic in today's technology driven society, the story well written and fun to read.

    Highly recommended.

    NOTE: This review is based on the audio book version.

    Damian has met his match! Gigi is not falling for the “full-of-himself” billionaire & she believes what the tabloids are saying about him. When they are together, she starts to see the real person & realizes he is not the bad boy playboy billionaire. He surprises her throughout this story & soon falls in love with the way he treats her. This novella gives you the swoon-worthy romance with a HEA.

    I volunteered to read this novel & leave an honest review.

    I am torn by this story. I liked the concept but I didn't like Gigi at all. I found Gigi to be judgemental and in some ways a brat. I found Damian to be conceited but he does have a heart of gold. He puts himself out there and takes the time help those in need.

    Gigi, an educational app programmer, meets Damian, a tech billionaire, by chance at a party his company is throwing. As the story progresses perceptions get in the way, barriers begin to crumble, phone calls cause trouble and grand gestures save the day. This book has a lot going on for an afternoon read. Yet, the reader does not get confused from the author trying to pack it all in. Marcella Swann gives the reader emotional depth, dramatic situations and happy for now/happily ever after endings that are realistic and engaging.

    This is a pot luck for your heart. Plenty of live and lust. A little bit of secrets and lies. A whole lot of sass and wit that keeps you glued to the pages and unable to put this recipe for love down. Just when you think you know what is happening next....turn the page and surprise...nor what you were expecting. This is why I'm hooked on Marcella Swann!

    I only read a few pages and gigi had me cracking up, I just knew I was going to enjoy this book. With her friend judy the pair were funny and quick witted.
    The book is fast paced and the banter between gigi and Damien is funny and amazing. Only the fear of letting the other in is stopping them from happiness. Great read.
