The Prideful Billionaire

A Sweet Enemies to Lovers Small Town Romance

De: Ann Hardy

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

She’s the woman he never saw coming. He’s the man she’s dreamed of—until he shattered her heart.

Hallie Gibbons has always believed in happily-ever-afters … just not for girls like her. With her quiet charm, humble roots, and a talent for design that no one takes seriously, she’s long admired billionaire tech mogul Ethan Darcy from afar. But when fate—and a Port St. Austen dating gala—puts them face to face, the encounter is nothing like the fantasy. Ethan is cold. Dismissive. And so far out of her league, it hurts.

What Hallie doesn’t know is that Ethan has a secret mission: protect his best friend from a romantic mistake, namely her sister, and he'll date Hallie to keep her sister at bay. He’s convinced the Gibbons sisters are after money. And Hallie? She’s just a way to keep tabs on the real threat.

Only she isn’t.

She’s kind. Spirited. Beautiful in a way he didn’t expect—and impossible to ignore. The more time Ethan spends with Hallie, the more his plan unravels, and his heart gets involved.

Hallie’s falling too. But when she discovers the truth behind Ethan’s interest in her, everything shatters. Now, pride, pain, and stubborn hearts stand between them.

Can they set aside their fears and fight for the kind of love that lasts forever? Or will mistrust destroy the one thing they never expected to find?

A swoony sweet enemies-to-lovers romance set in the charming town of Port St. Austen, this feel-good story is perfect for fans of billionaire romance, forced proximity, slow burn chemistry, and heart-melting emotional twists.
