De: MacKenzie Stowe

Narrado por: Posy Rose, Jim Catapano

In the bustling heart of New York City, Kiara Aurelius, a reserved school teacher, takes on an unusual gig: house-sitting for Barrett Olson, a suave and enigmatic businessman she’s never met. Nestled in his upscale penthouse, Kiara delights in the luxurious surroundings, immersing herself in Barrett’s world while capturing the city's vibrant essence from his panoramic windows.

Barrett returns home unexpectedly, catching Kiara off guard. Rather than being angry, he is intrigued by the beautiful stranger in his home. The air crackles with undeniable chemistry as they navigate this unexpected encounter. As night falls, their connection deepens, and passion ignites in ways neither could have imagined and evolves into an unforgettable weekend.

As the weekend comes to a close, Kiara and Barrett part ways, uncertain if they’ll ever meet again. They are unexpectedly reunited, but their burgeoning romance faces obstacles they never anticipated. Kiara’s protective brother and Barrett’s disapproving employee threaten to tear them apart. Caught between family loyalty and societal expectations, Kiara and Barrett must decide if their love is worth fighting for.

In this modern retelling of The Three Little Bears, Once Upon a Billionaire explores the delicate balance of love and trust in a world where appearances can be deceiving. Will Kiara and Barrett find a way to navigate their differences and build a love that's just right, or will the forces against them prove too great to overcome? Dive into a story where love is a gamble and only the strongest hearts prevail.

Sweet and Passionate Romance

This is the fourth book in The Billionaire Fairy Tales Series. Barrett and Kiara's story is passionate, funny, and engaging. I liked the banter, the instant attraction, and the romance. Posy Rose and Jim Catapano did a good job bringing this story to life. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Once Upon a Billionaire!

This is an intriguing and interesting modern twist on the classic fairytale, Three Little Bears. It is the fourth story in the "Billionaire Fairy Tales" series. The story is about Kiara and Barrett. The story is sweet, steamy and heartwarming. The narration was nicely done and really brought the story and characters to life. I enjoyed every bit of the story and really love the main characters.

Spicy Goldilocks

I liked this story, there's plenty of spice in it and it's got nods to Goldilocks. The story has some funny parts. And an over Protective Brother mixed in.

Fun Billionaire Fairy Tale Romance

I liked this audiobook. It's a fun easy listen and handles some well loved tropes in an enjoyable way. There were some aspects I didn't enjoy as much-the way the main character switched from inappropriately adversarial ( you were in his house! You don't get to be indignant!) to overly amorous was a bit jarring and made her hard to connect with at the start . The narrator was not my favorite either.

Overall, I did enjoy this audiobook and will likely pick up another work by this author.

Something they never anticipated results. Changes neither thought possible, and connections deeper ever imagined are cultivated shrouded in privacy until they are revealed in a way they didn't intend.

A billionaire, his dog and a second grade teacher walk in Central Park...no, it isn't the beginning of a joke but a story about two worlds colliding with an amazing outcome. As the fourth book in the series, previous main characters play tangential roles in this love story.

Jim Catapano returns to narrate Barrett's pov, with Posy Rose bringing Kiara's pov to life. If only we could have heard Bear's thoughts too.
