The Elusive Billionaire

Happiness Ever After, Book 2

From Amazon best-selling author, Avery Maxwell, comes an enemies-to-lovers, small-town billionaire romance with a fake engagement, scandalous small-town gossip, a storm that traps them together, and a secret that could destroy them both.

One storm. One bed. One unforgettable night. One big mistake.

Savvy
Getting trapped with Greyson Reyes during a hurricane was not part of my plan. He’s grumpy, gorgeous, and the town’s most eligible billionaire. Oh, he’s also the man who has hated me since the day all my secrets blew up in our faces.
Worse, he’s even better at getting me naked than he is at getting under my skin. And he’s very good at that.

Grey
There’s only one thing I can’t forgive—betrayal. And Savvy Monroe not only crossed that line, she decimated it.
Now she’s stuck under my roof, in my bed, and testing every ounce of my control. The town gossip mill is placing bets on wedding bells, but I’m the kind of man who doesn’t get a happily ever after.

Which is why no one is more surprised than I am at how protective I become when Savvy’s past comes back to haunt her.

Savvy and Grey

Good narration, Connor's voice is always a treat

Savvy & Greyson... talk about sparks!

They've had an enemies to lovers, enemies with benefits thing going on since the day they met.

Greyson thinks Savvy lied to him about something important. Savvy can't get him to understand that she was trying to help. When Savvy needs help later, she wants to solve her issues on her own. Grey has come around to the realization that it's not hate he feels for Sav, and all he wants is to save her from her own demons.

Lots of verbal sparring in the story. And yes, there is a sub-plot of an eating disorder so take that for the TW it is. So much fire between S&G. So satisfying when we get through to the realization that hate and love are two sides of the same coin.
