Rate this book
He didn't expect to fall in love, but it happens. She only wants to see his face, but he stole her heart instead. And then something magical happens.

Kooch Kirkpatrick is as committed to raising his daughter alone as he is to protecting her from the prying eyes of everyone-until gorgeous and sunny Adrienne joins his staff. Within days, she earns everyone's trust, brings laughter into his home, and makes him realize that she's the one he's been waiting for all his life. But her inquisitiveness has him questioning who she really is.

All Adrienne wants is to start with her new job. But meeting her new employer not only makes her fall deeply in love with him, but he piques her curiosity to the max. Kooch has been revered as a great man by his staff and around the world, however-he hides a secret. Can Adrienne resist finding out what he hides, or will her curious nature ruin their chances of a happy ever after?

As a billionaire and single father, Kooch Kirkpatrick has provided everything that money can buy for his daughter. He does his best to keep her secret hidden from the media and prevent any unwanted attention. They are content with their world but they are still missing something, or rather someone, in their lives.

When Adrienne is offered a position at Kirkpatrick's mansion as an archeologist cataloguing his private collection from around the world, she doesn't think twice before accepting. After settling into her new home with her golden retriever, Ginger, she soon forms an undeniable attraction with Kirkpatrick.

One day Adrienne accidentally stumbles upon Kirkpatrick's daughter, Louisa, and the secret she hides. Ginger brings Louisa and Adrienne closer together in the following days. As they get to know one another, Adrienne, brings a light to Louisa's life that she was formerly missing- and her father begins to notice the change.

When Kirkpatrick learns that Adrienne has discovered their secret, will he trust her? Or will Adrienne's curiosity ruin the relationship they have formed in the few short days they have known each other?

(I received an ARC of Billionaires Ever After in exchange for my honest review.)

"The One" was an enjoyable short read included in the Billionaires Ever After collection. Overall I liked the theme of the story and the personalities of the characters; however, at times I felt the wording was a little "cheesy" and the author could have selected stronger words and phrases. If you like a short love story, I would recommend this collection.

After her cheating ex was videod, in compromising situation, and having it posted to the internet, Adrienne was pleased to escape the scrutiny of her neighbors and work colleagues. A job, on an island cataloguing artifacts for a Billionaire, was just what she needed.
However, the Billionaire had other ideas for her, after seeing her picture, and finding her even more appealing, in person.
Off course, there's far more to this romantic tale, but you are best to read it as the author has written it.
