HOLDEN

by Ivy Carter

Holden Quinn is a man that wants for nothing. A gold Rolex on his wrist. A custom-tailored suit designed to highlight every single muscle. A different model each week, all clutching his arm with perfectly manicured nails and Botox smiles. There is no way I could ever be with a man who is a) way out of my league b) richer than anyone I’ve ever met c) would hate me on sight if he knew whose daughter I am. But I’m mesmerized by the way Holden looks at me, like he could gobble me up in one wolfish bite. I’m mesmerized by thoughts of his mouth pressing against mine, how those taut muscles beneath his suit would feel against my naked skin. He can be brooding and cold, then explode into violent rage when provoked. His unpredictability is an asset in his business, but makes it impossible for him to have any kind of stable romantic relationship. He wakes up in cold sweats at night, coming out of horrific vivid nightmares where he sees violence played out over and over again. He still lives with the guilt of a horrible secret—a secret he’s never told another soul. I want to get through to him, want to be the one to save him. If he doesn’t reveal his demons, he’ll break my heart. If he does, I might be too scared to stay. Either way is a dead end. Because when it comes right down to it, my heart knows the truth. Holden Quinn is a cold, billionaire bastard. And that’s all he’ll ever be…

Good

Although with the same kind of couple ; a hot billionaire guy and an Average girl, for a change we saw the story from the perspective of a girl whose father is responsible for the tragedy Which effected the life of Holden and his two friends.

Great story, beautiful message.

I wanted to love this book. It truly had a great message. It was short and to the point. However, as many people have commented it was poorly edited. The grammatical errors kill the vibe when you have to keep stopping to figure out what the author actually meant to say. Also the plot is inconsistent with the previous two books in the series like the author forgot what they previously wrote. Which I find had to believe because the same language is use verbatim in the spicy scenes that were used in the other books like it was cut and pasted.

Beautiful love story

I was so excited to finally get to read the last book in billionaire bastards. It was so good. Holden was such a jerk and I was so shocked by his proposal. I was glad she turned him down at first, the guy had some nerve to proposition her. But of course she agreed and a whirlwind of meetings came about till the feel in love, it was rivioting. Sad to have ended the book. But happy for the ever after they share. Loved it!
