This was the perfect ending to Joshua and Sarah whirlwind romance. I loved the banter between Jake and Sarah and the steamy chemistry between Josh and Sarah. Their relationship didn't seem rushed nor did the events in the book. Everything transpired at the right pace. I only wish that the author would've bundled this series because paying $2.99 per book is absolutely crazy.

A good ending

A sweet little series. Will definitely read more by this author. Some of the secondary characters in this book will make for interesting reads.

I am in love with this series since the first two books, The Billionaire's Desire (Submitting to the Billionaire) and The Billionaire's Desire 2: Dubai Confidential (Submitting to the Billionaire). However, book three's continuation didn't wow me as the first two books. I still liked it but was not wowed by it.

The story continues with Joshua taking Sarah to a surprise location. As the story later progressed, we get to meet more of Jousha's family as part three was more about family and Jousha's feelings towards Sarah. What got me really excited though was Jake, again. While reading part three the author gives little insights about Jake and this past relationship that he had with a woman who broke his heart. As Jake will have his own story, I'm looking forward to reading more about him. As for Jousha and Sarah's story, it was a nice ending, although the ten years later finish seemed a bit rush.

Let me make matters worse and bitch about the last installment also being separate charge of $2.99. What the fuck was she thinking. Again, had a friend not loaned me their copy (what's funny is Amazon gives you 2weeks to read these 5 minute books) of The Billionaire's Desire 3: Ultimate Bliss I would have never learned the surprises was a visit to see Momma 'Bunny'.

The third installment (or should I say ending of the novella) again bring more players into action but the emotions that began to spark in the The Billionaire's Desire 2: Dubai Confidential (or the middle of the novella) were rained all over. I just don't love any of the characters. That's doesn't mean I didn't enjoying reading this novella even if the author is trying to bleed us cash dry.
To be honest I would have enjoyed all three of shorts had the author just sold it as the novella it was intended and did it for a reasonable price say $0.99. It's just not worth $5.98 (or $8.97 if the first book is taken off the free market) for something around 160- 180 pages as a whole.

Book 3 of 3 (plus 2 bonus books)

The third book in this trilogy was definitely my favourite, we hear about a second but just as beautiful Hunter that also seems to want Sarah, a possible crack is Joshua's hard exterior and a mother who seems to accept very few people into her life.
It's full of lust, desire and jealousy but in the end all is well and Joshua admits his feelings. It's another all round great story, i don't feel we really got to know what Joshua was feeling much of the time but the heavy lust scene's clearly showed Sarah what she needed.
All in all the trilogy is a good one and i recommend any Erotica reader add these books to their collect.

Good thing by the time I came across to this books all the series is already out. Its going to be pretty much a big cliff hanger in every series. I enjoyed reading this so much that I finish this in one day. the moment they met is totally hot and to think she has all the ability every man wants; beauty, intelligent and sexy. I thought their love story is flawless but then when I reach the last series things between them are getting more serious and the situation is far more different from the first one.

I LOVED the way that the author wrapped up the story, I didn't think it was rushed at all I really didn't need a blow by blow detail of there year dating.
I am ecstatic to read about Jake, he intrigued me in this series so I can't wait to read about him and Lauren.
Again I wish we could do half stars on here because I would give this a 4.5 star rating versus a straight 4 star. I will definitely be recommending this series to a few friends.

I read all of The Billionaire's Desire and started the sequel My Forever is You and I really liked this series and the author's writing, but I have stopped reading the series because I refuse to pay $2.99 for unfinished stories. Stop stringing me along and write a full book and charge me one decent price! Keep that in mind if you start with this book!

Sarah and Joshua.

Another good book, a lot of the reviews are complaining about the price and I agree it's crazy which is why I generally avoid these serial novellas.
The story continues, they leave Dubai with Jake and Vivienne and make a stop on the way home, Sarah gets to meet Joshua and Jakes mother Bunny as well as their cousin Ethan.
Again really enjoyed this book.

I liked that there was some closer to this book. Loved the girls ( Abby & Claire) So so cute!! I have the next 2 ready to go! I REALLY wish that they were put together in ONE book!
Can't find TBD 4.1 or TBD 4.2 on goodreads ?

Firstly, don't quite understand the description for this one? Ethan hardly appears at all, so he really cant have that much sway?

This one was a little disappointing compared to the second, but again I sell found myself turning the page!

Cute ending but it was rushed. I expected more drama and passion but it never really got into that in this series. Just some hard fucking and a overly cautious sometimes careless man.

I really enjoyed this book however the ending was far too rushed for my liking, skipping to ten years later!
