This set is a 50 Shades clone about a woman who lives in Paris, and falls in love with a rich guy who's into light BDSM.
...wait a second. Didn't I already review this book?
No, Rocked by a Billionaire's a different set from Boxed Set: A Possessive Billionaire - Vol. 1-3: His, Body and Soul.
THIS 50 Shades clone is about a woman named Lisa, who starts off going to college in Paris, but spends most of the story working for a French law firm that's merging with an American firm based in New York.
Much like A Possessive Billionaire, Rocked by a Billionaire has many scenes reminiscent of 50 Shades of Grey. Hold on, let me check my notes...I swear, I read three books in a single day that were all basically the exact same thing. I had to write down what each one was about to keep them straight.
So okay, according to my notes, Rocked by a Billionaire includes: Lisa going on a business trip to New York with her boss (despite not being high enough in company standings to actually belong on the trip), a blonde receptionist who works for Sacha, a miniature art gallery in Sacha's office, a romantic ride in Sacha's personal helicopter (that he flies), and an abusive family history for Sacha. His past is incredibly similar to Christian's, except it actually made Sacha man up, where it scarred Christian for life.
The dialogue in this book was strangely formatted. For the first quarter or so of the book, everything was normal, and then out of nowhere, conversations started looking like this:
- I like women in heels. They shouldn't wear anything else, he said.
- Go to hell, asshole! I punched him in the face, hearing his nose crunch with a satisfying sound.
Yes, the heels line is something Sacha actually said. No, that is not how Lisa responded. I may have inserted myself into that example. Just a bit.
Near the end, the dialogue suddenly jumps back to looking normal. It was fairly distracting, and just weird to read.
I'm also still trying to figure out how Lisa got her cellphone back. In one scene, she throws it against the wall and breaks it because she's pissed off at Sacha. (She spends a good portion of the book being pissed at Sacha.) She goes to the airport, flies to Hong Kong, goes directly to Sacha's hotel room...and then somehow magically has her cellphone back, despite not going outside, or telling Sacha that she needed a new phone.
It seems like a weird thing to focus on, but that was the only thing in the book that really kept my interest - Lisa's magical cellphone regeneration powers.

Tough call
not sure what feel.. I hate the writing style. I am glad the books were free. the character is wimpy and insecure and gives in quickly. curious about the story but not enough to get the others.. dang it make one book not lots of little ones it's annoying

Great read
I was drawn into the crazy love story with all of its ups and downs. A really good read, very descriptive.

When I started reading it I wanted to give it a chance but in the end it was too all over the place. I couldn't connect with the characters and I don't have the desire to finish the story.

Non ho mai letto nulla di peggio in vita mia.
Tralascio la nutrita serie di strafalcioni per passare a quello che a mio modo di vedere è il vero problema: la storia e i personaggi. Lei è una ragazza poco più che ventenne, comunissima e un po' dimessa, lui è "bello come un dio" e "dallo sguardo di giada" (unici epiteti ricorrenti per tutta la durata del testo: chiamarlo romanzo mi pare eccessivo) nonché ricco da fare schifo. Basta uno sguardo e la vicinanza in una cabina d'ascensore perché lei cada in deliquio e si innamori perdutamente di uno che, avvalendosi della sua posizione si comporta dapprima come uno stalker da manuale ed in seguito come un incrocio tra un soggetto affetto da manie di persecuzione e uno con il pallino del controllo; di conseguenza tratta Liz, la protagonista, come un mero oggetto sessuale. Ma ovviamente a "giustificazione" di questo modo di agire c'è un passato avvolto nel mistero, un passato tanto oscuro che Sacha, il protagonista, si rifiuta di rivelare. Nel prosieguo della storia si scopre che ha avuto un'infanzia difficile e che in passato ha subito una grossa delusione sentimentale. Povero cucciolo! Come si fa a resistere dunque a un tizio che sì, si procura a tua insaputa il tuo indirizzo di casa cinque minuti dopo averti conosciuto, ti impone di vestirti come piace a lui, ti dice quando parlare e quando tacere, e addirittura quando provare piacere, ma che però è bello come un dio, ha lo sguardo di giada e il portafogli rigurgitante di carte di credito? E difatti, nonostante nella testolina di Liz si agitino un paio di guizzi di amor proprio e dignità, basta un solo sguardo o frase svenevole - che nemmeno tra le peggiori dei Baci Perugina - per farle dimenticare qualsiasi sopruso e per farla bagnare come se avesse corso la Parigi-Dakar a piedi.
Sarcasmo a parte, mi vedo assediato da una duplice problematica: chi legge questa roba potrebbe in qualche modo sentirsi autorizzato a credere che gli stereotipi da quattro soldi qui illustrati possano in qualche maniera aderire alla realtà, credere che sia normale per un uomo ed una donna comportarsi come fanno i personaggi di questa storia in cui c'è poco di erotico e nulla di tutti quei processi mentali che sono il vero motore di una storia d'amore, più o meno intrisa di passione. E ultimo ma non ultimo, il fatto che una persona che abbia dedicato del tempo a queste pagine si senta e si definisca una persona che "legge".

1/2 stella
Lasciatevi trasportare nell’universo incantato dell’ultima saga di Lisa Swann… che farà impallidire persino "Cinquanta sfumature di grigio"!
ROFL. Sì, come no, al confronto le Sfumature (di cui questo è una mediocre ed insulsa scopiazzatura) meritano il Nobel per la letteratura, e considerati i loro limiti …
Questa … roba … non ha nessuna utilità, non riesce neanche a far ridere, è pietoso: contenuti non pervenuti, refusi a gogo (è un crimine per l’ortografia), situazioni ben oltre l’assurdo.
Capisco che è un personaggio di una fiction, ma la protagonista, per usare un eufemismo, è tra le più sce@# e isteriche di cui ho letto.
Incontra un tizio, dopo dieci minuti che lo conosce e dopo averci scambiato circa cinque parole, si fa baciare e palpeggiare dappertutto in mezzo ad una strada.
Dopo due ore e dopo che aver subito un interrogatorio che dire indiscreto ed imbarazzante è poco, gli fa un bel lavoretto completo e, a seguire, lo fa andare subito in casa base.
E poi, dopo un giorno, fugge sconvolta, offesa e arrabbiata perché pensa che lui la consideri una facile (e ovviamente non è così, scherziamo? Quelle facili gli saltano addosso dopo mezzo secondo e senza una parola, tipo che so, un semplice ciao).
E alla fine di tutto questo finisce in preda ai sensi di colpa e si scusa per essersi comportata come una bambina ma solo dopo aver pensato che lui si era approfitto di lei e abusato della sua ingenuità.
Ma perché finisco a leggere queste porcherie? (altra autrice da evitare come la peste come Emma Green) Per fortuna l’ho scaricato gratis da Amazon.

This had to have been one of the most annoying characters I've ever read about. Everything about her seemed to get on my last nerve. If the book wasn't free I would've returned it and stopped around chapter three. I kept going seeing if someone wrote it the least I could do was finish it. The problems I found was she was just tooooo naïve! I mean really? He basically did her on the first day he met her, within less than an hour at that. Does her the next day and she's in love? Can't stop thinking about him? Get real! Then after a week or so she sees him and she's talking about relationship? Like seriously? Within two weeks she's asking for some commitment and comes off as a serial stalker. She wants to know all his secrets like they've been knowing each other forever when I think it's less than a week that they'd been in each others company. I can't say that this book was bad because if it makes you feel anything it was worth the read. All I can say is I hope there aren't psycho women out there like this. I would say I'd read the next series to find out if she found a clue but I doubt it she was just too simple for me.

Confusing
I found this book confusing and disappointing.
Confusing: sticklers of grammatical errors should not bother with this box set. Not having punctuation in the dialogue was hard to follow. The name of the company she works for changes midway through the book. At the beginning of the book she is interning at a law firm while going to college in Paris. But yet the next week he is hiring her as his personal assistant to work in New York and he's going to pay $200,000.00 a year?
The heroine can't seem to find her backbone. His treatment of her is horrible. The back and forth is not worth it.
This book ends in a CLIFFHANGER. You have to buy the next set to finish the story. After reading the reviews for the next set, I have decided not to bother with it. To many "What, That's it!" comments. To me boxed sets should hold a complete series not half or less of it.

It was ok I have read worse in my opinion.
I love the fact that Sacha needs Liz but pushes her away at the same time this makes him a strong male character.
What I don't like is the fact that at times Liz can come off as strong and determined and I think yes make him work for you. Then in a heartbeat she is like what the hell you can do what you want with me treat me badly make me cry hurt me but I will still keep running back to you. This makes her weak but having finished the book does this stem from her mother. Could she be as damaged and fragile as her mother.
Onto the next 3 books only because I need to know what it is that Natalia has to talk to her about. The next 3 books were overpriced I thought as well.
These may not make my read again list.

Liz was finishing at the university in Paris and interning with a law firm that she hoped to secure a job. In walks Sacha Goodman who was finalizing a merger between his law firm in New York with the firm in Paris. He was quite taken with Liz. So was Luz but she was just a young intern. What could the CEO from New York see in her?
July 20, 2014
The blurb promised to make me forget about 50 shades, but it certainly didn't do it. Sacha is a jerk, who treats Lisa badly, hot then cold. He even decides he doesn't like her name so calls her Liz. And Lisa/Liz keeps going back for more. Perhaps this is a good illustration of how women get caught up in bad relationships. But, as a romance it fails.

Just HORRIBLE!
OMFG. This book is a train wreck. Weak story, pathetic characters, and has the author got a high school degree? I learned punctuation, spelling and grammar in elementary school. Thank god this book was free on Amazon and I can delete it from my library. What a waste of time.

I read this because it was free on Kindle & I was bored. It only took 3hrs to read this entire series. I was expecting something longer seeing at was the first 3 volumes. It really leaves you hanging though & the reviews for volumes 4-6 aren't very good. I opted not to read the next set of the series because of the price & how short it was.
July 6, 2014
Very well written, drags you in quickly!
by the end you not sure if your voting for them or not (hence do I wanna buy the next set?!?!?) and then Natalie is waiting soooooo, ummmmm yeah I am buying the next set!! lmao

Great story. Liz's insecurities through the story off at times for me. I wish this volume had not ended with the question of what did Natalie want see Liz about. Now I have to find out.

I liked the set but as you can see from the other reviews its not complete hint hint. Kind of leaves you hanging there. When I got this I was thinking Yeah a complete set no cliffhangers even though I don't mind them. To me they were a bit short but very sexy!

This is the 1st books I read by Lisa Swann. The only thing I liked about this story was the hot & steamy scenes. Some of the dialogue also made me laugh. I thought Liz acted too immature in this story. The story line was kind of boring to me as well.

Ci ho rinunciato dopo dieci pagine.
Terribilmente adolescenziale.
