Resumen del Editor

Self-made billionaire Nathan Trainor feels restless and disillusioned. His company may be thriving, but he can't find a woman who sees him for more than his wealth. With his love life in the red, he meets two other billionaire bachelors at the ultra-exclusive Bellwether Club. The three of them make a wager of the heart: they must find women who love them for who they are, not their money.

Savvy office temp Chloe Russell is trying to scrape together the money she needs to support her grandmother. So when a flu epidemic strikes Trainor Electronics and she's promoted to Nathan Trainor's assistant, she jumps at the lucrative opportunity. But then Nathan himself falls ill, and he and Chloe must work from his penthouse while he recuperates. Before long, it's clear there's genuine heat between them, and it's more than just a fever spike. Will Nathan win Chloe's heart - and the bet? Or will their differences destroy any chance for love?

WELL I'M ONE HAPPY BUNNY

The Publisher's Summary sums up this story well.. so all I'll add is that it has a very good and very enjoyable boss/assistant storyline which included humor, lots of sexcapades and a tiny bit of angst as two likeable characters have instant chemistry and very quickly fall for each other. But Chloe the Temp has obligations and can't believe that handsome Billionaire Nathan is looking for anything long-term so she eventually sacrifices her heart for job security. There's also a bit of drama from her Grandmother and Nathan's estranged Father.

I can't believe this very entertaining story of Chloe and Nathan's took place over a course of just a few weeks because there seemed to be so many layers to this and it never dragged. Dual POV's and good narration made it a captivating listen.

Worth a credit? Yes it would've been.. but at $7.34 for a 12.18 hr listen meant I didn't need to use a credit because anything under $10 I just buy to save my credit for a more expensive book AND I bought the three book series in Audible's half price sale so right now I'm doing the happy dance.

Great love story

I loved the book. I didn't want it to end. I can't wait to read the next one.

techie, author, athlete

Three very wealthy men (techie, author, athlete) find that at this point in life it has to be something more. These same men make a wager of their hearts and love. Up first of our wealth men was Nathan. He was caring his on baggage. Life for him was more and less at the same time. He never would have guessed the temp he meets one day would be his anchor the next. Chloe had lived most of her life by the lessons learned from her father. Then one day she finds that a lot of what her father taught her wasn't truth. The love of her grandmother now rules her life. She would do anything to keep her grandmother with her. Running into and up against Nathan Trainor. He becomes more than just a temporary boss. In a very short time he becomes her everything outside her grandmother. They both have things to confront in their lives. They both could be exactly what the other needs once they see past their own issues.

Lauren Ezzo was introduced to me with the range she could accomplish with her character voices. It was also appreciated that a great portion of the time you could clearly understand the voice and its character. The CEO Buys In was also my introduction to Nancy Herkness and her brand of storytelling. Thank you. I look forward to the next of this series.

Can't get passed immature narration...

The narrator reads about like a high schooler.
The opening isn't particularly interesting, but I'll give the written version a try to see if it becomes better.
Uninteresting and peppered with unnecessary and unhelpful details so far.I don't care if someone adds both salt and pepper to a sandwich!

I can't review it beyond that.

Sweet..but 19 hours of my life I went get back...

I kind of felt the book was for maybe a young adult. But for those of us who are old sullied and jaded save the credit. I also would of liked the books better if it had Male reader as well.

narrator ruined it for me

the story line is ok... nothing new or exciting. the narrator monotone voice just ruined it for me.

Very sweet and romantic

This story is perfect with its introduction of the characters and how their relationship grows with lust, friendship, and family. A great reading!

loved it

I really enjoyed reading this author.  I look forward to reading more books by this author in the near future.

Okay book

Good story line but most of the book centered on their love making. In the car several times, on the plane , on the rug, in the dressing room, on the furniture, in the elevator and much more. I liked nan her grandmother and his father.

Just had to finish it!

I was listening to this story on YouTube and only half the story was there so it was so good that I had to find the ending... and im so glad I did.
