Bossy Glenhaven Billionaires: Three-Book Boxset
These couples seem destined for disaster, but love has other plans! In this swoon worthy boxset by Leslie North three sexy, billionaire bossholes meet their matches in women who just can’t help falling for them—even though they fight it every inch of the way!
The Bossy One
Olivia St. James’ new boss, Irish billionaire Declan Byrne, is a total grump. He clearly doesn’t like her. But guess what? The feeling is mutual. That is, until Olivia sees a different side of Declan—a softer, sexier side. Who knew someone so grumpy could be so…appealing? Olivia has always stuck to the cardinal rule for Do not get involved with the family. But come on, aren’t rules made to be broken?
The Grumpy One
Cleaning floors at Branson Couture wasn’t part of Natalie Greenwood’s career plan. Neither was almost decapitating the CEO with a mop. Snarlmaster General James Branson. He’s insanely rich, annoyingly charming and, as it turns out, he’s also her new boss. After finding her design sketchbook, James offers Natalie the job of her dreams. All she has to do is show up, work hard and try not to think about her boss naked. Easy, right?
The Grouchy One
Diamonds are a girl’s best friend. But the guy selling them, sexy billionaire Cameron O’Connor, is Felicity’s worst enemy. First, he steals her cab on the way to a job interview…a job he’s doing the hiring for. Then, he has the audacity to offer her the job for a ridiculous amount of money. If only rumors hadn’t spread that they’re a couple. Now, they’re having to fake a romance for PR. But she can’t possibly fall for her bosshole…can she?

The Bossy One: Declan needs a nanny for his niece who will be spending the summer with him. Declan and Olivia are great together once they get past their faults and admit their love.
The Grumpy One: When Natalie and James meet it is hilarious. Natalie attacks him with a mop, thinking he's a thief not realizing he's the CEO of Branson Designs. He fires her then hires her as a designer. This is a slow burn love story with all the feels, I'm laughing one minute and crying the next.
The Grouchy One: This is slow/hate burn story. I was beginning to think Cameron and Felicity would never get a HEA but of course they did.
Loved this boxset and this author. They are all well written, amazing reads with grumpy bosses who fall in love with their women. They are all sweet with a bit of steam and I loved every story.

This is a great collection of stories with three strong couples each with their own story to tell. She does a terrific job developing their story as she brings humor, a fun banter, chemistry and romance and moves them fluidly with her descriptive scenes delivering entertaining reads. I had the pleasure reading two of these as they came out and loved reading each of their stories.

This boxset contains three books featuring some billionaires bosses who soon meet women that challenge them and have them reconsidering what love means to them.
The Bossy One
Declan Byrne is a billionaire and co-creator of Snug, a social media platform, but is having a bad day trying to get to a tiny place called Faribault-Northfield, Minnesota to pick up his niece Catie (8) as his sister Sinead is finally going into a rehab, which he is paying for. He needs to bring Catie back to Ireland where he lives and works, thankfully most of it can be done from home in the tiny village of Ballybeith, but their offices are in Dublin. He meets the overly chatty and annoying Olivia St James on the plane for the last leg of his journey, as she is returning home after being sacked from her job as a nanny for another family. She is on her last chance with the agency and seems to have lots of issues with parents who don’t put their child’s best interests at heart, ignoring the nanny’s years of expertise with children! She is a nervous flyer, hence her talking non-stop, which is something she does a lot of anyway! He gives up on trying to get any rest and ends up asking her advice about hiring a nanny and she passes on a card for the company she works for. They will send him a questionnaire and then send him details of any suitable nannies who match his requirements.
Both faced tragedy at a young age, which changed how they looked at the world going forward. Declan lost his father to a drunk driver in the local village and has sworn to get his revenge against the man and his family, after no punishment was meted out to the man responsible! This has left him very driven and looking to gain a certain outcome, never mind how it might affect others! Catie comes up with some very unusual requirements for a nanny to look after her for the two months of the summer holidays and not surprisingly, Olivia is the only match! She and Catie get on like a house on fire straight from the get go. Declan isn’t used to looking after any children and has no worries about money so insists that Olivia takes Catie into Galway and buy her anything she wants! One sticking point comes about when Declan sees her being friendly with the son of his arch enemy and he warns her off speaking to any of the O’Rourke clan. Declan and Olivia have a few fireworks early on and matters go awry, but they soon get back on board together and he begins to listen a little to what she suggests is best for Catie and not fight her on every issues, nor she him. Feelings of attraction have been there from the start and Olivia knows she should remain professional, but that Irish accent just does it for her and she can’t resist! They get hot and steamy until another issue causes them problems, seemingly too stubborn about wanting his revenge to listen to anything about Seamus O’Rourke and why he wants to speak to him urgently! Lots of additional storyline and filler to keep the reader interested and makes it so much more than just a romance. A thoroughly enjoyable read and made me want to visit a small village in Ireland and hear the Irish brogue being spoken.
The Grumpy One
Natalie Greenwood is working three jobs to make ends meet and pay her fees for her design degree, with just one semester left, and one of those is working in the retail part of Branson Designs store. She was clearing up after a long shift and thought she was all alone, with the music pumping and a mop in her hands cleaning the floors, when a man in a posh suit surprises her! James Branson is actually the CEO of the family run company and was trying to finish off some spreadsheets, but the loud music was giving him a headache. Natalie doesn’t take his sudden appearance well, pushing the end of the wet mop in his shoulder and asking him who he is and why he was there, having no idea who he was. Instead of explaining who he was, he pushed back at her and complained about her singing voice and more, ending with her calling security, only to get a shock at his identity! Unfortunately, he is not impressed with her attacks with the mop, not her loud music and lacklustre mopping skills, firing her on the spot. She is in complete shock and leaves without her design notebook, which she uses for her course as well as just general scribbles.
She goes back to work early the next morning, thinking the boss boss man was just joking and hadn’t really fired her, it he turns up just as she is trying her keycard repeatedly. He allows her to argue with him, especially when he mentions her notebook and she sees it in his hands, but he won’t give it back to her! He has in fact another job offer for her in the design department as a permanent employee on a much better salary and takes her to HR, but doesn’t have the time to give her a tour. That leaves her changing her top in the lift after an accident with her coffee, not knowing where a bathroom is, before going to meet her new boss and fellow designers! Of course, James walks in on her and can’t keep his eyes off her exposed body, however much he tries. He is used to dating models and airheads, who only want him for his money, and not wanting anything like a proper relationship, but the sparks are flying between them. He is far too busy trying to save the family business and look out for his older brother Christopher, who had a breakdown after his wife left him.
This is her new chance to do exactly what she wants, it would just be nice not to have a horrible new boss in Clint, who puts down her work all the time and wants her gone because James hired her! On top of an oppressive atmosphere at her new job, she also has to deal with a very handsy lecturer, but her bestie and roommate Steph is a wonderful support. By the end of her first week and the impossible deadlines Clint has given her, she has had enough and goes direct to James to complain, as HR have ignored other complaints from her colleagues. James actually does more than she imagined, but it soon even busier having to run her department, as well as his own role and the loss of his assistant! She offers to help and soon ends up in close proximity with James, seeing another side of him altogether and unable to stop anything happening between them. His family seem to like her as well, but a relationship is still not in his wheelhouse, thinking they are just being casual. A family celebration seems to bring them closer, but a works celebration destroys her trust in him, as he puts work and family before her! Misery follows and hard decisions and changes have to be made to ever get back what he really needs in his life.
The Grouchy One
The two main characters, Felicity Rhodes and Cameron O’Connor, meet as they clash over whose taxi it is, after he tries to get in the one she called. She is late for a job interview and he is rushing to check on his friend who left a worrying message. He thinks his need is more important, just from looking at her, which pushes her buttons completely and she calls him a few choice names! Her current freelancing as a marketing and PR strategist is only just paying the bills. When she does get to her interview for her dream job at Veritique, she has mini interviews with different people, eventually leading to a final interview with the new CEO, who unfortunately turns out to be Cameron! He accuses her of being late, after she was delayed by his VP Sandrine, so she can already tell he won’t be offering her a job. So she tells him exactly what she thinks of the disaster his own father created by his actions and his company’s poor response to the scandal. She ends up walking out and ends up commiserating with her BF Nina at a club, where she unfortunately spots him. When he turns up at her building as well, she accuses him of stalking her, only to find out he owns the building! They get stuck in the lift and soon find them discussing his latest problem with their new campaign and she offers her own solution, which might help him get his company seen in a much better light. He loves the idea and wants her to consider working for them, offering her a lot more than she would have previously been given, but she needs time to consider it all.
Realising that this could give her and Nina the money to finally reach their dream of opening their own bookshop, she takes the job and he soon realises how good she is, as all the others who interviewed her had told him. Her ideas to link with the refuge who his team had used the hashtag of inadvertently, works well and then they need to work on the engagement ring campaign and that throws out a few surprises! The social media influencer he hires on her recommendation, seems to think there is a secret romance going on between her and Cameron, leading to them having to fake a relationship to boost the business. She can’t stand him and seems to be the only person who isn’t afraid to speak her mind to him. It works a little too well, even after she makes him sign a handwritten note of what they will agree is acceptable. They soon go past what was agreed and start what she thinks is a real relationship, but his previous relationship has left him never wanting to trust a woman ever again, nor have a permanent relationship. She was hurt badly enough by her previous boyfriend, and he even wrote a book about it, which seems to have become a best seller! Add in Nina falling for his former drug addict pop star best friend Tyler, who has a relapse and Cameron soon finds himself blowing up on camera, almost ruining everything they have been doing for his company. Closed off Cameron is impossible to deal with and the usual issues of a fake to real relationship raises its ugly head and everything could be all over! He will need to figure out what he really wants and needs to do to make amends, before any chance of a HEA ending may happen. Two well-matched characters, with painful relationships in their past that affect their current lives, and she isn’t afraid to tell him with a few choice words exactly what she thinks of him and his actions!

THE BOSSY ONE – BOOK 1 BOSSY GLEN HAVEN BILLIONAIRES
4 STARS Very grouchy Irishman vs Joyful Nanny Declan is a self-made Irish billionaire. Instead of living a comfortable life he wallows in sorrow and hate over the death of his Da…many years ago…by a drunk driver, Mark O’Rourke, who was the town's richest meanest man. Declan won’t let it go... He holds tight to that grudge, making plans to ruin Mark O’Rourle and his entire family. This makes Declan an unlikable character for me. He is mostly angry, pompous, and vindictive throughout 90% of the book. The goodness of this story is the sweet, caring, and lovable nanny, Olivia. She becomes Declan’s short-term nanny when he takes temporary responsibility for his 6-year-old niece, Catie. My critique: Declan was self-centered. Every time the slightest thing was said or done that he didn’t like; Declan flew into a rage. Olivia gave him so many chances…too many. The story otherwise was great. I loved most of the characters, especially Olivia, Molly, and Catie. I also loved the old Irish small-town setting. Linda
BOOK 2 THE GRUMPY ONE 5 STARS PLUS++ Wonderful Story, Wonderful Characters! I highly recommend this delightful love story filled with strong women making their way into a cutthroat business. Most of the characters are kind, hardworking, creative, and fun. Natalie Reynolds is awesome. I loved everything about this strong confident hard hard-working woman with major artistic talent. The story revolves around Natalie working for Branson Designs. She starts at the bottom working in retail, but her dream is to be a fashion designer. Branson Designs has been a well-respected high-end clothing business for many years but lately, the luster has dulled. James Branson, the grandson of the founder, is running the business and that’s about all he has time to do. When James comically bumps into Natalie late one night at the store, they do not hit it off at all. In Natalie’s haste to go home, she leaves behind her portfolio filled with extraordinary fashion drawings. When James finds her designs, he is amazed and knows she needs to work under Branson Designs. Natalie has a strong “take no crap” personality and James respects her. The talented people in the Branson creative department are great and once Clint, the awful director, is booted out it is a wonderful place to work. The process of creating a clothing line, the actual clothing descriptions, and the pecking order at Branson’s was very interesting, it made me feel like I was a bug on the wall taking it all in.
James is a great caring man who is trying to protect his family business and his family. He’s all work no play and burning out. I loved the Branson family. They may be mega-rich folk, but they had caring lovable traits. “The Grumpy One” has a fantastic ending that gave me goosebumps. Linda
BOOK 3 THE GROUCHY ONE 5 STARS A Formidable Woman is just what he needs. Cameron O’Connor is the new CEO of Veritique, his family's Jewel empire. Cameron is a good guy trying to recover Veritique from a misstep made by his obstinate father, but how can that be done? Well, a new Marketing specialist is on the job, and boy, has she come up with some awesome money-making ideas. Felicity Rhodes is a formidable woman who kicks butt. Comically, she and Cameron have already had several run-ins, and Felicity blew- him- away. Who’d a thought he would be turned on by a sassy-mouthed woman? They make an awesome partnership. I LOVED ALL THE CHARACTERS in this serious, silly, confrontational, romance story. You will cheer for success and love for everyone involved, except Steven Brudny, who gets what he deserves.
I received an ARC copy of this 3-book box set of the “Bossy Glen Haven Billionaires” from Booksprout and these are my thoughts on each story. Linda

BOOK 3 THE GROUCHY ONE 5 STARS A Formidable Woman is just what he needs. Cameron O’Connor is the new CEO of Veritique, his family's Jewel empire. Cameron is a good guy trying to recover Veritique from a misstep made by his obstinate father, but how can that be done? Well, a new Marketing specialist is on the job, and boy, has she come up with some awesome money-making ideas. Felicity Rhodes is a formidable woman who kicks butt. Comically, she and Cameron have already had several run-ins, and Felicity blew- him- away. Who’d a thought he would be turned on by a sassy-mouthed woman? They make an awesome partnership. I LOVED ALL THE CHARACTERS in this serious, silly, confrontational, romance story. You will cheer for success and love for everyone involved, except Steven Brudny, who gets what he deserves.
I received an ARC copy of this 3-book box set of the “Bossy Glen Haven Billionaires” from Booksprout and these are my thoughts on each story. Linda

The Bossy One
Bossy Billionaire and his Cute Niece fall for the Strong Willed Nanny
Olivia is a nanny to Catie. She was hired by her Uncle Declan so he can take care of Catie in Ireland while Catie’s mother is in rehab. Olivia has been fired from several nannying jobs and really needs this one to work. She realizes immediately that might be hard when Catie’s uncle and her new boss turns out to be the grouchy man she met on her flight back to the states. Declan is equally frustrated by the circumstances that forces him to hire her because he is under a time crunch.
There are a lot of things happening in this book and they all make for an interesting read. Declan is dealing with his 14 year vendetta against the town villain and his prominent family for un-aliving his father in a drunk driving accident and getting away with it. He is also watching his niece while his sister completes rehab all while running his hugely successful social media company. Declan is Bossy and Olivia doesn’t back down so they argue a lot. Olivia is also dealign with her own issues with abandonment and not following her dreams. I really liked how they both pushed each other out of their comfort zones. This was a really great book with some interesting themes. Loved it.
The Grumpy One
Grumpy CEO meets Sassy Designer, classic Enemies to Lovers with a Great HEA
Aspiring Designer Natalie is moonlighting as a cleaner at a design house when she has an unfortunate run in with the grumpyCEO, James. And by unfortunate I will say there was both bad singing, and a mop involved. Natalie lets her mouth run amok and throws around a lot of insults and sass before she finds out who she is insulting then is asked to leave. Since her dismissal was vague she returns to work the next day hoping she wasn’t actually fired, only to be offered her dream job as a designer the bad news is, she is working for the grumpy CEO who she can’t seem to stop insulting.
This books was really great. I enjoyed it so much more than I expected. While the premise seems pretty straightforward there are a host of side characters that really bring this story to life. Not only that, but the journey that both main characters take to realize that their hostility is actually based in attraction unfolds nicely. There are also some real issues that both characters have to deal with both individually and collectively. The journey makes the HEA payoff even more satisfying. I didn’t read book 1 so this book holds up as a standalone story with no problems. Great book. I highly recommend it. Loved everything about Natalie. She is my kind of heroine.
The Grouchy One
Grouchy Bosshole, Strong Willed PR Genius, Fake Social Media Relationship turns Real, Couple Goals
This book exceeded my expectations! If you go in thinking this is a typical Grumpy Sunshine book you are doing it a disservice. At the core you feel like this will never work, these too are two different. The meet cute is anything but cute when they have a rather extreme altercation regarding a cab. Cameron is dealing with a lot including trying to resurrect the image of his family business while at the same time trying to navigate being a source of support to one of his oldest friends who is dealing with addiction and depression. On top of all that he is coming off a dramatic ending to a relationship while dealing with his brother falling for the daughter of his company’s biggest rival.
I LOVED LOVED LOVED this book. As with the previous books in this series it is only enhanced by well rounded side characters that you are just as invested in as the main characters. At the end of the day, the Grouchy one is a great read with an unconventional HEA and is well worth your time and attention. This book is a must read!!.

Bossy Glenhaven Billionaires Box Set
Bossy Glenhaven Billionaires Box Set contains the 3 full length novels of this series....
1. The Bossy One
2. The Grumpy One
3. The Grouchy One
I really enjoyed these books when I read them as they were released, and reviewed each at that time. To have them in one box set is a fantastic way to add them to my personal library. My reviews are -
The Bossy One is definitely how you would describe Declan Byrne. But there is a lot more to this grumpy, gruff and sexy billionaire. Olivia discovers this and a lot more when she is hired to be the nanny for Declan's niece, Catie. Over the course of her two months in Ireland with Catie and Declan things start to change and some lines are slowly crossed until there are no more lines at all. Then things get fun and take some unexpected turns in the journey to the HEA.
The Grumpy One is the second book in the Bossy Glenhaven Billionaires series. This story is a light, funny, sweet, sexy, romantic, and entertaining read. It is not heavy in any way, which makes for a refreshing reading experience and one that had me laughing out loud a number of times. I liked the characters, enjoyed the story-line, and was left wanting some more at the end.
The Grouchy One is the third book in the Bossy Glenhaven Billionaires series. This hate to more/fake romance story is about Felicity and Cameron. The first time they "meet" sets the stage for they dynamics that follow. Cameron is used to getting his way and just plowing over anyone and everyone into doing what he wants. Felicity has a back-bone that makes her strong, independent, feisty, able to tell it like it is and then deliver even more. Together they make for some hot and lively banter that puts them on a course to spark a whole lot more....after all the opposite of hate is love.
This is a fun and entertaining book. I loved Felicity and then over time fell for Cameron also, as initially I just wanted to cuff him upside the head. The story is delightful and has enough drama, emotion and romance rumbling underneath the surface to make it worth the time. Once again Leslie North delivers a great book.

The Bossy One
Oof! These two tried desperately to break my heart. Both Declan and Olivia have tragic events in their pasts. They’ve also got a comedy of errors in their present constantly throwing them together. There were so many times that this pair nearly brought me to tears; either from the sweetness of their growing relationship or in heartache over the obstacles in their way. I couldn’t help but hope for them to get their Happy Ever After. Not only did I fall in love with Declan and Olivia, but I fell for the whole Byrne clan and all the quirky residents of this little town that surrounded them.
The Grumpy One
Oh wow. I think this book has made me fall in love with the whole Branson family. James starts out this book as a bit of a high-handed jerk, but through Natalie we get to see his dedication to his family and the family business. And Natalie starts out looking a lot like a hot mess, though we get to learn about the struggles that have brought her to this point in her life. I loved this pair together. They’re complete socio-economic opposites, but their hearts long for so many of the same things. I laughed with them when things were going well, and my heart broke for them when trouble reared its ugly head. I really don’t want to let go of these characters now that the book’s over.
The Grouchy One
Urk! These two. There’s so much chemistry between them, and in the beginning, it was all ‘hate at first sight.’ Cameron and Felicity both have strong personalities and some pretty set-in-stone opinions about love and marriage. When they get roped into a fake relationship as a publicity stunt, they need to figure out fast how to get along before they kill each other. As the walls came down and they get to know one another, it was easy to fall in love with them as their fake relationship became more and more real. And holy moly! That ending was so incredibly precious.

As the walls came down and they get to know one another, it was easy to fall in love with them as their fake relationship became more and more real. And holy moly! That ending was so incredibly precious.

The Bossy One
Declan is having a bad day, he's rushing to the States to collect his six year old niece, Catie, as his sister, Sinead, is going into rehab.
Olivia is having a bad day she's been sacked again, for telling the parents what's best for their child, she's a nanny.
They're sitting next to each other on the plane, he wants peace and quiet, she doesn't stop chatting!!!
He contacts her Nanny Agency and, of course, ends up with her! He gets very annoyed with her but Catie loves her.
He finds her annoying but is attracted to her, she just finds him attractive! Can they last the summer until Sinead is able to collect Catie?
The Grumpy One
Natalie is working in retail to earn enough to finish her college course. James finds her one night cleaning the store, totally unaware that anyone is around. He takes his responsibilities very seriously to the detriment of anything else. Natalie works three jobs and has had an awful childhood but is sunshine and light, something James needs!
This is an amusing story about two completely different people who need each other to balance out.
The Grouchy One
Felicity and Cameron meet, unknowingly, an amusing interlude. He's a billionaire and she's looking for a PR job. She's great at her job but it gets hijacked by an influencer. They are extremely attracted to each other but Cam doesn't believe in love, and even tries to persuade his brother that he's making a mistake, and Felicity's parents didn't produce a good example.
Can they overcome their pasts?

Book #1 - The Bossy One - 5 stars
I really like a nanny / boss trope. When Declan and Olivia meet it isn’t cute, but it made me laugh. It takes them quite a while before they even admit their feelings and even then there’s lots of fireworks between them. I also loved little Catie.
“I love your freckles.” Declan crawled over me, caging me in with his heat and strength. “I have dreams about your freckles. They’re stars, and you’re my constellation.”
It was good to see how they both changed for the better, especially Declan.
Cute epilogue!
Book #2 - The Grumpy One - 4 stars
Well, the grumpy one turned out to be not so grumpy in the end!
I loved the way Natalie and James met, I could picture it in my head.
And a bit later, when Natalie comes up with a fake boyfriend, molded after James, he’s more than happy to help her out by pretending. Then one thing leads to another.
“You….you do things to me,” he said.
Just when it starts to look like they’re having a real relationship there’s a major set back. Because of that, James really needs to grovel, and he does, in the most swoon worthy way!!
Book #3 - The Grouchy One - 5 stars
I really loved everything about this book. The fake relationship trope is one of my favourites. There’s so much chemistry between Felicity and Cameron from the moment they met. And I loved how protective Cameron became of Felicity.
“I wrapped my arms around her, hoping she could tell that I would always, always fight for her.”.

Three amazing books in one boxset.
Another great collection by Leslie North.

All three romances are different and they all have their own happily ever afters.
The bossy one
Olivia and Branson's nanny boss romance.Branson needs a nanny for his neice and Olivia needs a new job.
They don't hit it off straightaway.
Catie and Olivia's bond is so sweet and Catie is adorable.
As the story goes on and they give into their chemistry their feelings change and they eventually get to their happily ever after.
The grumpy one
James and Natalie's meet cute is hilarious.
Their first meeting doesn't go well.
When James finds Natalie's sketchbook with all her dreams,he helps her to make them come true.
As they get to know each other their feelings change.There are a few obstacles in their way they need to overcome to get to their happily ever after.
The grouchy one
Cameron and Felicity's first encounter is feisty.
They both fight over the same cab and get off on the wrong foot.Their second meeting goes just as badly.
When they both end up in a fake relationship with each other they don't know how they will pull it off as they don't even like each other.
Their feelings change for each other,but they have both been hurt in the past from bad relationships and takes them a while to admit their feelings.

Book 1 Declan and Olivia met on a plane and it was not a great encounter. Declan was in a bind and needed a nanny to help care for his niece and contacted an agency. Olivia happened to be the nanny assigned and it was her last chance to remain employed by the company. Declan agreed to a trial period and although attracted to Olivia she seems to get under his skin in more way than one. I really enjoyed the story and characters.
Book 2 I loved this story. James the owner of a fashion design company and his irritating employee Natalie. To say the temperature rose when they were around each other would define it lightly.. The love hate relationship was just the right amount of push and pull. The company was everything to James, and just the right place to kickstart Natalie’s career but also the reason for contention between the two. Having work life balance and putting those you love a head of everything else was a hard concept for James until it was too late,
Book 3 Felicity just landed a new job and was excited to get started. Cameron is a rich bachelor that was rushing to his friend and incidentally caused issues for Felicity. They were both equally irritated with one another and then got thrown into a fake relationship to save his company. The campaign was working until he ruined it all.

The Bossy One - Declan booked the first available seat on any flight to quickly reach his sister Sinead and niece Catie, as the company jet was unavailable. Declan had the misfortune of being seated next to a chatty young woman who prevented him from getting some rest. Adding insult to injury, she even fell asleep on his shoulder. However, destiny had a different plan for him. When Declan needed a nanny for his niece, he discovered the ideal candidate in Olivia - the very same woman he had met on the plane.
The Grumpy One - The first time James met Natalie, she had music blasting as she used a mop for a microphone, dancing along, and singing so off-key it was awful. Natalie left work in a huff, forgetting her sketch pad. When she returns to work the next morning, James comes up behind her with her pad and hires her on the spot for the design team at Branson Designs
The Grouchy One - Felicity is hurrying to get to her interview on time when a rude man tries to steal the taxi she hailed. Not only that, but he is also rude about it. Coincidentally, Felicity's final interview at Veritique is with the CEO, who turns out to be the same person - Cameron, the rude man competing with her for the taxi.
These three stories have plenty of romance and steam, with each ending in a HEA. Very highly recommended.

This review is for The Grouchy One, Book 3 of the Bossy Glenhaven Billionaires series. It's a steamy, OTT, enemies-to-lovers, grumpy-sunshine, fake relationship, girl eventually gets her billionaire boss romance. I love Leslie's books, and this did not disappoint. Cameron has taken over the family's jewelery company after a family scandal. Felicity is a social media manager looking for a job and happens to have an interview at his company, but their initial meeting is anything but cute when he steals her cab. She ends up late for her interview with him lol and he brings up the cab. Felicity is a sassy spitfire. Cameron wants her for the job and offers her insane money, but she refuses with choice words. But these two keep crossing paths. They end up working together and in a fake relationship where real feelings become involved. But Cameron acts like a tool, and she walks away shattered. Will he get her back? Their chemistry was pure fire and the snarky banter hysterical. It's a bit of an emotional roller-coaster before we get our happy ending, but they are perfect for each other. I loved it!!.

This boxset has three amazing stories that kept me glued to the pages with these amazing characters. My favorites are, "The Bossy One" and "The Grouchy One". In the first story "The Bossy One", Declan is on a commercial flight to get to his niece, and he is seated next to a chatterbox! Olivia is a nervous flyer and talking gets her through it to Declan's dismay. She is hired by the agency he used, and she answered the questions correctly. Now she is off to Ireland and Declan doesn't want her to get too comfortable in the position. This story had me all caught up in Declan and Olivia. It is a well written story and had me connecting with the characters. In my other favorite, "The Grouchy One", Felicity is in a bind and needs a job badly. She is on her way for an interview when a man jumps in the cab she hails. Things get intense quickly because that same man is the one she has an interview with! This story is filled with antics and banter that kept me glued to the pages to see how it all turns out for Cameron and Felicity.

Three excellent books of bossy billionaires! The Bossy One, The Grumpy One and The Grouchy One. One thing to note, each book starts off with a funny scene that will capture your attention and want to continue to read on!
The Bossy One is about Olivia, Declan, and his niece, Catie. Olivia and Declan meet on the plane, and he already has an unfavorable impression of her, but she learns quickly how to win him over!
The Grumpy One is about Natalie and James. James is Mr. Grumpy, but he has a reason to be; worrying about his brother and the family business is nothing to take lightly. When he is interrupted by the screeching sound of someone trying to sing Beyoncé, that does it, which, of course, is Natalie, who attacks with a wet mop!
The Grouchy One is about Cameron and Felicity. Felicity is on the way to getting her dream job but instead encounters an entitled man, Cameron, who is trying to take her cab. Her interview is with the CEO, aka Cameron, so she loses it, refuses to do the interview, and ensures she has the last word.

The Bossy One: This book will immediately grab you and not disappoint at any time. The emotions Olivia and Declan go through are so strong. I loved the way they met, it was so entertaining. I loved how Olivia wasn’t afraid to stand up for her charge and do what she felt was proper. I absolutely loved how it all worked out.
The Grumpy One: I absolutely enjoyed this book. It will take you through so many emotions, it made me laugh and cry. I totally enjoyed the way James and Natalie met, it will stay in my mind for a while. The way Natalie wasn’t afraid to say what was important to her was inspiring. James needed to relax a little, though when you find out what’s going on with him, you’ll understand. This book will stay with me for a while.

This is three stories in the "Bossy Glenhaven Billionaires" series that feature the stories "The Bossy One", "The Grumpy One" and "The Grouchy One".

"The Bossy One" - This is a slow burn romance about Declan and Olivia. The nanny and the uncle meet and get off on the wrong foot. She definitely seems to have the best interest for her charges though.
"The Grumpy One" - This features Natalie and James. She is cleaning when she tries to take the intruder, or CEO, out with a broom. This story is entertaining to say the least.
"The Grouchy One" - This story is about Felicity and Cameron. Their first meeting is entertaining but frustrating. Their second meeting is has firework igniting.

A collection of books is always wonderful, just on the couch with a blanket and read. This collection is no exception, we are treated to 3 beautiful stories, each with its own couple. I chose the book The Grumpy:
Natalie has 3 jobs to have enough money for her studies, she works in retail to earn as much as possible. What she doesn't know is that James sees her one evening when she is at work and he immediately knows that she is the one he needs in his life. They couldn't be more different than this, but that is also why they fit together perfectly. Their story is just like the other stories worth reading.

The Grumpy One
Natalie and James meet unexpected and their connection was unexpected, the sparks fly and James hasn't met anyone like Natalie before who totally sasses back. Wonderful characters in a well-written story that pulled me in and kept my attention throughout.
The Grouchy One
I absolutely loved this story, a wonderful well-written enemies to lovers romance. As with all Leslie North books, it's entertaining and pulls you into the lives of the characters. Characters are well developed and have plenty of character and chemistry.
Standalone story, wonderful characters, definitely recommend.

This is a collection of 3 billionaire stories. Most women they involve with just want to have their money, status, or connection. They don’t believe in love any more. They try to be bossy, grumpy, or grouchy, so most gold diggers will leave them alone. When they run into their one true love, they inevitably start with the wrong foot. They resist and go against their own heart. By doing so, they hurt the one they really love. I enjoy the fisty female characters and author’s sense of humor in these stories. This collection definitely satisfies my appetite for billionaire romance.
