Too short and too short on story!
Not that good and as a shifter story it was a fail for me here.

Hot Sexy Romance
As much as I like full length novels, this shorter story is very good. There are alot of books about charity auctions and billionaires finding their mates thru them but this one is really cute. It's a great short read. The story moves along without repetition. Owen and Rains are great characters.

Not understanding all the reviews here. This lacked originality and pretty much any real story line at all. Porn and a bear. The end.

BOUGHT BY THE BILLIONBEAR is a short, sweet billionaire romance. Raina is a curvy girl with low self-esteem, but nobody stays low when a man is willing to pay $1M just for one date!
This is just the kind of fluff you want when you pick a short story to fill the time between longer reads. It’s also a great way to dip your toe into the pool for a new-to-you author. I’ll definitely pick up more books from Zoe Chant.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book from the charity dating auction to the instalove/fated mate love of Raina and Carter. It was well written and the characters were believable, including Raina being a BBW. I'd love to read more by Zoe Chant. Zoe Chant Bought by the Billionbear

An afternoon well spent
What you you don't have time to read! NO SUCH THING. You just need to find the right book. If you are short on time and do not want to have to keep putting the book down, give BOUGHT BY THE BILLIONBEAR a read.
Raina doesn't see herself the way her friends do. So when she fills in for a sick friend at a charity auction she only hopes that someone will be something on her.
When she comes out on stage she immediately has Owen's attention. And he is determined to have her, no matter what the guy sitting next to him thinks.

wow
Bought by the billionaire is a quick standalone read. Over half of the short story is of extremely hot and steamy intimacy scenes. They just make the couch and the forest floor. The bear wins over his mate and fights another one to keep his mate safe. The only thing about the short stories is that the reader doesn’t get to know what happens next for the mated bear. Do they indeed live safely together, how many cubs do they have and do the mate get the ability to shift

Hot
When you helping a friend's turns out to be so much more. Raina is on the auction block for charity, she's just praying to get out of this quickly. She never thought all her dreams could come true. Love all wrapped up in a hot bear shifter the money is nothing compared to what she finds in his arms.

Too short
Sorry for the 4 star rating, but felt cheated because the story seemed really short and ended rather abruptly without the usual depth of working toward the joy of fulfillment. That was almost like a wham, bang, thank you ma'am with everything happening in less than 24 hours.

I enjoy the fast pace of shifter romance. Raina and Owen meet, go to dinner and hook up in this fast pace shifter romance. She was Bought by the Billionbear at a charity auction where Owen recognized her as his fated mate. If you like shifter romance Bought by the Billionbear is on the short side and a good quick read.

Awesome Read!!!
Loved it, thought that black bear was up to no good. Some ppl just can't take no for an answer. Short and sweet just the way I like it, this was a nice read Zoe. I love all your series they put me in a world away from all the troubles of this world, especially in these trying times...big fan as always Winzie19☺💞.

Cute story!
This was a good story. Characters were fun and there was a quick twist to make them even closer. I’d have liked it better if it was a bit longer - more time for developing the story line and building in the suspense a bit.

These books get shorter and shorter and predictable - I know this author, editor, and publisher can do better - if you want us to become avid readers this isn't an inviting path.

Other than the fact that the chick kept acting like she expected the dude to be all about the money, I enjoyed this read. I wasn't surprised by the twist at the end, although I wasn't really expecting it either.

Mates
When you agree to go in your best friend's place as a bachelorette in a charity auction you don't expect to find your one true love. Is it true love or is she fooling herself? While this story moved fast I enjoyed how their chemistry shows through.

Short
The story was short but sweet. 5 seconds of danger and lots of sex. No need to really read the whole book. That sums it up entirely.

Short and sweet
Cute characters and yes it was predictable but I liked it. Bear meets girl, whirlwind romance but sometimes fluff is fun

This is the first thing I've been able to read to completion since we went on lockdown for the pandemic, and that in itself tells you this didn't take much mental effort. Not recommended.
