CAPTIVATING, COMPELLING AND SINFULLY SEXY !!!
Title: Fall
Series: The Billionaire's Rules
Designation: Book Eleven of Multi-Installment Serial, NOT a Standalone Story
Author: Kelly Favor
My Rating: FIVE SINFULLY SEXY STARS*****
Fall is the eleventh book in Kelly Favor's suspenseful The Billionaire's Rules Serial and it totally rocks! This is my very first experience with Favor's work but I must say, I'm impressed with what I've read so far. This is NOT a standalone story but rather a serial with sixteen installments so we all know what that mean.... dare I say it, cliffhangers - fifteen to be exact since Book 16 is the conclusion. Yikes! Each installment is relatively short which makes them perfect for a quick break or lunchtime read. The journey begins with Ivy Spellman, a recent college graduate who has been hired as a data entry temp by Biomatrix Pharma, one of the largest and most prestigious drug companies in Boston. Out of her group, she has been singled out by the handsome CEO of the company, Cullen Sharpe who has for no apparent reason chosen her to bring him his coffee. Ivy had always been the shy, quiet, mousy student who always sat in front, kept her head down, took meticulous notes and got good grades. She has just recently finished school and has no real job experience other than working as a part time grocery clerk so this is her first real job. She has no idea why Mr. Sharpe has taken an unusual interest in her but she only hopes that it doesn't lead to her termination. It certainly couldn't be because of her good looks because she would never be beautiful enough to attract the attention of someone like handsome, wealthy Cullen Sharpe. Even her manager, Emma Marks, seems to immediately dislike her. What the heck? After Ivy spills a cup of scalding hot coffee in Mr Sharpe's lap, she is called to his office to discuss her failure of his assigned task and to Ivy's surprise, he offers her tutelage in the form of.......discipline. What? Mr Sharpe presents Ivy with a choice but what will she decide??? She decides to decline his offer and leave his office but immediately regrets her decision. Ivy's indecision and inexperience torment her as she tries to resume her work. She is invited to a nearby bar for a drink after work with Lucas and several other coworkers. There is an altercation at the bar involving a very tipsy Ivy and a group of very obnoxious male patrons. The only friend she seems to have among her co-workers is Lucas who unsuccessfully tries to rescue her from their unwelcome advances. But just who arrives in time to come to Ivy's rescue? Why, handsome, hunky Cullen Sharpe, of course! Apparently, the mysterious Mr. Sharpe is very attracted to lovely, young, inexperienced Ivy and wants to do more than just discipline her at work. He spirits her away to his apartment where he rejects her after learning she is a virgin. What the heck? Ivy leaves and is more determined than ever to stay away from the fickle Mr Sharpe but can he stay away from Ivy? Apparently not! He insists that she attend a company luncheon at a nearby venue where she quite literally bumps into Xavier Montrose, President of Vellum Pharmaceuticals, a direct competitor of her boss' company, Biomatrix. And Xavier asks her for a date! Oh my! Cullen Sharpe witnesses the exchange and is furious. Oh my glory! Cullen Sharpe may not want her but apparently he doesn't want anyone else to have Ivy either? What is wrong with that man? What will Ivy do? Will she defy her Boss, otherwise known as Sir or Mr Sharpe as he's asked to be called, and accept a date with Xavier? I think not, at least not yet. Cullen Sharpe doesn't give her a chance. It looks as if the enigmatic Mr Sharpe can't stay away from Ivy and this time, he does the deed. That's right, Ivy is no longer a virgin! She spends the night with Cullen but when morning comes, he's back to his same cruel, arrogant self telling her that she should stay away from him. What is this guy's problem? But when Xavier is waiting outside the Biomatrix building for Ivy the next day and whisks her away for lunch, Cullen is absolutely livid. He marches into the restaurant and demands that Ivy leave immediately. And now, he showing up at Ivy's apartment in the middle of the night - uninvited! Oh my glory! Poor Ivy will soon be suffering from whiplash as a result of Cullen's mood swings and his off and on again behavior. He wants her, he doesn't want her, he wants her! But she can't turn him away! She's already in too deep! And I do mean emotionally and legally! OMG! Why is Xavier Montrose so interested in Ivy and just what is he up to??? Is the email he sent Ivy real and why did he send it? Hmmm...... And what exactly was Lucas doing in Emma Mark's office at her computer and why is he watching Ivy so closely??? After Ivy finally confronts Lucas for reading her email, Lucas delivers an unbelievable confession and a terrifying ultimatum to Ivy but is Lucas Hogan truly a FBI special agent and if so, why is he investigating Cullen Sharpe? Could there be a little corporate espionage happening at Biomatrix or murder? The truths, lies, consequences and threats are slowly taking an emotional and physical toll on Ivy. Ivy is threatened after someone sends her pictures of Cullen and her making love. The turmoil is too great and Ivy collapses while with Cullen. He takes her to his home to care for her where Ivy finally reveals the truth to Cullen? Ivy may be in danger and Cullen claims he has a way to protect her from everything - but only if she marries him! What??? Even after a quickie marriage in Vegas, the secrets and lies keep bombarding Ivy at every turn. Why couldn't he just have told her the truth? Why must he continue to conceal everything and selfishly guard his secrets, never allowing Ivy to penetrate the walls he's built around his heart? Knowing what she knows now, will she still be able to stay married to Cullen? Will she ever be able to trust him??? Does he even love her or is he only using her as he's used so many others??? And now she knows for sure that there have been others! Truths are told! Secrets are revealed! Lies are exposed! Commitments made! Promises sworn! Oh My! But has Cullen finally revealed everything??? Hmm.... I wonder??? No spoilers from me but I will say this..... Super sexy dominant boss who may have control issues who loves to discipline and punish his "student"-check! Handsome charismatic competitor and former friend who seeks revenge-check! Beautiful, shy virgin who discovers that she loves to submit-check! An overprotective and very meddlesome mother-check! A mysterious and elusive father who is wanted by the FBI-check! Office politics, drama, secrets, domination, consequences, punishment, blackmail, possible corporate espionage, a claimed FBI investigation and maybe even murder-check! A private jet, a sudden eventful trip to Vegas and a unexpected quickie wedding-check! Heated attraction, sexy seduction, fiery passion, mind-blowing suspense, a smidge of BDSM, steamy sex and an unhealthy dose of agonizing angst-you bet! Oh my God! That and a whole lot more! This story just gets better and better! The story is smart, exciting, fast-paced, suspenseful, compelling, arousing and seductive. The dialogue is smart, well executed and flows effortlessly. The characters are intriguing, captivating, engaging and sexy. Seriously sexy and definitely entertaining! OMG! This just gets better and better!!! I can hardly wait for the next installment!

I think this was the best one yet. Finally I can feel the love (ok not really but at least Ivy says she does). So much happened here. So much drama. A life hangs in the balance and only Dr. Cullen Sharpe can save it.
I wonder what Cullen's dad needed $2.6 million for. Will Ivy forgive her mom? And will Cullen have to face a trial and/or subsequent prison sentence? Will it a all be revealed in the next book? Well I'm gonna read to find out.

When I first began reading this one it was the last one on the list on this site and here I thought it was going to be the end of the series. But I should have known better because it is Kelly Favor we are talking about. It was really good and in my mind it was the last book so I thought things were going to end with a nice little bow but the series continues!

YES!
I am so happy that this book starts showing Cullen as a feeling human being. Ivy deserves so much more than he was giving. This book makes me want to keep reading. Almost gave up after book 10.

I can't even begin on how stupid this one was.
My past reviews still apply. Lucas is insane and Cullen is an ass and Ivy is still being treated as a door mat.

I am proud of Ivy
She is able to get Cullen to realize he is not at fault for something he could not have foreseen.
