The night I met Shane Sorrenson started off as the worst one of my life. I had just broken up with my fiance, John, after a huge fight. I decided I would rather walk home in the rain than drive with him another minute. Then Shane pulled up next to me on his Harley. He was huge, sexy and dangerous. Everything I'd never even dared fantasize about. I should have made him take me to a hotel, or a friend's house, or anywhere. Instead, I let him take me to his condo where he turned the worst night of my life into the most erotic, sensual experience I never would have imagined in my wildest dreams.

A real wham bam thank you man novella! Like really, insta attraction, crazy.
Still it was a easy to read, pleasant enough read and it was a freebie!!
I hope this series of books gets longer and that they give us more fleshed out characters and storylines. That would be great.

Holy Hell, my kindle caught fire!



This was a short, sexy read. One to definitely get your blood pumping. I just have a tiny complaint.. I was a bit grossed out that she'd leave her bf to eff some stranger when she thought she was pregnant. Other than that.. I seriously loved it! I want a sexy Biker Billionaire! Please I'll be a good girl (or not.. whichever make you happy!)

The Biker Billionaire series…
Wild Ride #1
The Mile High Club #2
Riding the Heir #3

GREAT SERIES!!!

Totally leaving the same review for each book as all three of these could have easily been put into one Novella instead of three short stories!!!

The plot is good and I really liked the fast pace of it… but like I said before, this could have been ONE book… each of the three stories has everything I needed in a book… hot characters, steamy sex scenes, emotions, secrets, and humor!!! I’m glad I decided to read them.

Even though Shane IS an alpha male, he’s got a huge heart and with the right woman (Leona), that softness and kindness come through the hard exterior of a man that is hardened by his families wealth and popularity!! I have to admit, I myself am completely and utterly in love with Shane and his uber hot brothers!!!

The writing style is effortless to read… it actually felt like I was reading my own writing… like the way I would explain something or tell a story of my own… I was whisked away by this story and transported into a world of hot sex, airplanes, war zones, hospitals, and mansions!!! Glad to be along for the ride!!

All is all, I really liked all three stories… and as I said before… COULD HAVE BEEN ONE BOOK… for that I gave this entire series 4 stars… if it was one book… I’m pretty sure it would have warranted a 5 star rating from me!!!

This is a quickie-read. With a lot of smut. Girl breaks up with boyfriend. Girl runs into rugged biker. Girl gets swept off her feet by biker. It's chaotic, it's crazy, and it's nowhere believable. But it's a good read for those days you don't want to delve into anything heavy plot-wise.

Regardless of the fluff and smut, I'm diving right into book 2. Shouldn't be more than a couple hours to read that. Then I'm getting more books by this author. I do like her easy style. :)

2 1/2 stars. The Hero and the sex were hot, but I did not love the heroine much.
Spoilers below**********


This is a short story and is one of a trilogy involving the two main characters.

It begins with the heroine and her fiance driving home from dinner after having a fight (she mentioned her diet/excercise plan and he told her it was really working "this time". Ok, a bit of foot in the mouth but not enough to throw a hissy fit).

I guess the author was trying to set up how the relationship with the fiance was kaput but it just made the h seem like a shrew. She displays a lot of unlikable female characteristics. She was childish and pouty and said things to get a rise out of her fiance. When that doesn't work, she tells him she thinks she might be pregnant. He doesn't react how she's expecting so she jumps out of the car (in the rain). He tries 2 or 3 times to get her back in but she tells him to eff-off. When he drives away she's surprised and angry.

In rides the the hero on a motorcycle and he is pretty damm perfect romance hero material. They ride off together to his place after encountering the fiance.

The heroine is so inconsitent,she says the only man she's ever been with is her fiance and that their sex life is hum drum then she proceeds to to seduce the hero and performs courtesan-worthy sex acts on him. Then she decides she wants to have un-protected sex with him even though she thinks she might be pregnant by her just-dumped fiance (this girl is supposedly an E.R. nurse, you'd think even in an erotica she'd know better!). And she lies to the hero to convince him to go bare-back by saying she's about to start her period.

I downloaded it for free along with the other two so I'm going to go ahead and read them. I just hope the heroine improves on further reading.

This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.

I have to start with ... I love Jasinda Wilder and her writing style. She has a way of writing a story that plays out just like a fantasy in your head. I've read a few of her books and I can honestly say I have really liked each one I read a little more. The stories suck you in by the time you finish the 1st paragraph. It's VERY hard to put her steamy novels and novellas down.

I'm pretty stingy with my 4 and 5 star reviews, so for someone else this may be a 4 or 5 star book. A 3 star review, for me, is an average book. A book that you will share with your friends, but not force them to read. A 4 or 5 star review is left for those few books I deem "MUST READ" or "MUST READ RIGHT THIS MOMENT." The books you are raving to everyone and their mother about.

1st I loved the main female character's name - Leo (Leona). It's an old name, but it reminds me of someone who is strong willed, determined, and knows what she wants. I appreciated that Leo was a strong female character. John was a wimp and deserved to be kicked to the curb. Shane was super sexy and every girl's fantasy - smart, handsome, a little dangerous, kind, etc. The story itself was far fetched, but I am the type of reader who likes the far fetched story lines every once and awhile. It's nice to be transported to fantasy land from time to time. I am still debating if I liked that it was such a short story. I know it's part of a short story series, but I really liked the plot and how it was unfolding. I hated to get to the end and need to upload another book in the series. Maybe if I bought the box set of the series and read it all together I wouldn't feel so whishy washy on the length of the 1st installment. This is definitely a good pick for a romance/erotica reader. It's super steamy and is a super quick read.

TOTALLY HOT


Leo rows with her fiancé, she tells him there over throwing the ring at him. They are in his car she jumps out. The weather is really bad she slips over in the wet and mud. Enter a hot sexy biker to the rescue. Shane is 6' 4" of gorgeousness. Not wanting to go home Leo ends up back at his place.

I normally don't like such short stories, but I liked the sound of this one and as it was free at the time I downloaded it so I thought why not. I wasn't disappointed. This might be a really quick read but it's got everything. Especially hot and steamy sex. I believe there are more books in this series, if they're all as good as this I will definitely be reading more.

*spoiler* I'm sorry to do it. This story was a bit much. First you have a girlfriend who has a boring boyfriend, a boring life, then gets upset with fiance and out of the car she goes to get soaking wet and this is all after she tells her boyfriend she thinks she may be pregnant and then she meets up with biker dude and they are hooking up in like the first 5 minutes of the book I can't say that I can really go with the whole I'm pregnant but now I think I'd like to screw that man over there. That was a little off.

I didn't get this. At all. How does a chick go and bang some dude when she thinks she might be preggers less than an hour after breaking up with her fiance? I get that this is a fantasy read, but come on! There were inconsistencies that made me wonder if I had missed something and the sex was old hat.

2 and 1/2 stars..

Here is the thing about this story.

If only a little bit more effort was put into this book, it could have been one amazing story!!

Seriously! Only a little bit!

I enjoy Jasinda Wilder's writing style, and really love the way she is able to pack so much story into so few pages. But this novella was just okay for me. I didn't really connect with the characters that much, and to be honest the plot was rather forgettable.

Jasinda Wilder is another fave author of mine. I loved her Big Girls Do It series, so decided to check out her other reads.

Wow Shane Sorrenson is HOT!

And this is pure fantasy which you would only dream about doing!

Another fab series

Medical inaccuracies and "wait, really?" moments took me out of the action. And then sentences like this set off my editing brain:

"Even during the most intense experiences before, the most I ever let out was a gasping inbreath..."

Sex was okay, but disappointing overall.

Hot, quick, steamy read! Even though the story line was a little far-fetched, I found myself really liking this first part of the Biker Billionaire series. And although it was far-fetched, I couldn't help but think that I would probably hop on the opportunity too if I were Leo.

Leo has had enough of her 'go-with-the-flow' long-term boyfriend/fiance and when she reaches her breaking point she jumps ship. No literally, she jumps out of the car. So here she is, soaking wet, torn clothes, broken heel, and stumbling right into the pure solid, hotter than sin, harley riding, Shane Sorrenson. *sigh*

Shane Sorrenson might just be the ideal bad-good boy. Holy hottness...this man is fucking walking perfection. What's hotter than a harley-riding, sexy as hell, bad boy? One that is also an ex-marine turned doctor who voluntarily goes into third world countries in the midst of civil wars to treat the injured. Shane is just perfect all around. I wouldn't mind having a go-round with him and then taking a joy ride on that harley!

The sex scenes are super steamy and when you think Leo and Shane have tired out, they go on and on and on......PERFECT! Leo is finally able to let loose and Shane brings out things in her she never thought she had. Be prepared...hot, hot, hot!

I am excited to continue this series and see what else Miss Wilder has in store for us with the Biker Billionaire.

Biker Billionaire #1.

Sepertinya buku ini bukanlah type cerita kesukaanku. Aku baca buku ini dengan pertimbangan halamannya yg sedikit dan hanya untuk selingan dari kisah kisah berat dan buku tebal. Aku pantang untuk tak menyelesaikan satu bacaan jadi seri ini walaupun "gak banget" tetap aku selesaikan.

Agak binggung dengan karakter Leona yg sepertinya tak puas dengan tunangannya. Apa yg menjadi ganjalan terhadap tunangannya itu bagi mengada ada. Kenapa setelah 3-4 tahun berhubungan dengan cowok yg tak berperasaan seperti itu, dia baru sadar? Waktu yg telalu lama untuk sadar. Untuk sebuah kisah erotis buku ini lumayan.

Leona Larkin bertemu Shane Sorensen seorang biker tampan setelah bertengkar dan putus dengan tunangannya. Hasrat dan sifat pemberontakan dalan diri Leona menyala. Baru mengenal Shane sekejap, Leona telah mempercayakan dirinya untuk dibawa ke medan perang di negara dunia ketiga sebagai perawat perang.

This is a quick hot read with an ending that will have you reaching for book two. Leo is a very relatable character, and Shane is the hot man of my dreams (please come find me Shane-I will even walk sadly in the rain for you!). I had two little pet peeves about the story. One, she wanted him bare because she didn’t consider pregnancy a thread…what about disease woman! The other issue was that, other than Shane living in a nice condo, there is no indication that he is a Billionaire. Maybe we delve deeper into Shane in the next short story installment, but I think it should have been touched on in this story since it has something to do with the title. Well done, I will be picking the next installment up soon. It’s worth a shot if you like romance, smut, and hot rich men all rolled into one.

Before you buy the rest of these books buy the Omni Collection, it has a bonus little read that gives the ending. You will find this on AMZON or Barnes and Noble NOT author site.

To be able to walk away from a possible mistake before it happens would be wonderful. Leo (Lenona)makes that happen for herself. Bumping into someone that should be scary was another possible mistake but turns out fabulous. Shane is over 6' tall, former Marine, HOT, who likes Harley's, tattoo's & piercings. A bad guy, or so he looks. He hides who he is but for a humble reason. Without saying much else, this is so worth the read but you must get them all. This could have been all in one book but for the price the Omni Collection is a great deal. Shane is too hard to pass up, giving her an out of a dull relationship. - :)

This was such a sexy start to the series! As the lead character, Leo seemed like an everyday ordinary girl and relatable. With all of her issues, you just wanted her to get what she really needed. And boy, did Shane was what she really needed! I just wished he was real! He looked the bad boy persona but was a good guy at heart and that can be seen through Jasinda's awesome writing. The sex scenes were just oh so incredible. The passion can be felt through pages as you were reading. I would have liked a little more story-line but I'm sure that will be seen in the next installments. This was an incredible series. I just couldn't get enough of Shane and Leo! I want more of them! Definitely a good book to read!

For someone that has 27,245 likes on FB I truly feel like I am reading about and sharing things with a good friend! saying this I will admit that this was my first read of hers and I cannot wait to read more!! A Wild Ride was short and yummy and WOW!! Shane and Leo were just jump off my Kindle HOT together!! Shane charged in like a white night and saved Leona from a bad situation and then attempted to be a gentleman amongst some smoking hot chemistry... glad that he wasn't able to stay the gentleman!! Heading to Amazon now to buy the second installment for Shane and Leo... gotta see what happens!

I would give this 2.5 stars, if that was an option.

This book was good, I guess, but I have to admit I was a tiny bit disappointed in it. I have heard such amazing things about this author's other books, that perhaps my expectations were too high. This book was a short, mindless, fun read, I guess, but pretty implausible and the characters are lacking in substance. Having said that, I don't think this is meant to be a book that makes you think. :) It is a book to read while sitting on the beach with a fruity drink and escaping reality for a bit. It is fluff, but sometimes fluff is good. :)

Once again Jasinda Wilder gives us a female lead who is finding herself, trying something new, and is willing to take a risk. She is not without insecurities, which is why I always love her characters. Jasinda knows how to write what a female thinks, especially the females who are not a size 0 and "perfect" as you see in many romance novels. I really didn't know what to expect with this book, but it took me a couple of hours to find the words to write this review. I am left panting and wanting MORE! Just one more reason why I am totally in love with Jasinda Wilder and her books! 4 out of 5! babusbookshelf.blogspot.com
