This was a fun, sexy debut novel under a pen name from an established author.
I loved this book so much, it was fun and a great escape. The length made it perfect for a lazy Sunday afternoon read. Stella introduced us to the world of these Alpha Billionaires with intriguing characters and a story line that is different from the usual.
Sterling is the ultimate alpha. He's a take charge kind of guy who knows what he wants and goes after it. Especially when it is a beautiful woman he wants.
Tilly is an amazing female character. Despite being sold by her family, she has a resiliency that keeps her tough.
Their instant attraction is palpable, and it took on a life of it's own. I loved every moment and completely devoured it in one sitting.
The supporting characters in this series are amazing as well. Stella gave us enough of a tease into their personalities that I am waiting on pins and needles for their stories to come out.

OMG but I'm so glad I went back to the beginning of the Alpha Billionaires series for the origins of what made these alphas tick. Wealthy businessman, Sterling Montgomery (what a soap opera-type name... lol) was just going to the venue to support one of his oldest and dearest friends, Aldrich and sees one of his old friends from years back being sold as a sex slave. Once he see her behind the one- sided window, his protector's instinct kicks in and he has to claim her as his own ... MINE! Yes, Sterling knew that the act of purchasing a beautiful woman was all kinds of illegal but when he saw the heiress, Tilly well all bets were off thus he had to make her his like forever or... by any means necessary! I loved the way Stella Stone told their sexy as all get out story !

This is a sexy, steamy, pretty much all sex story. If you are looking for an in-depth story with complex characters, this is not the story for you
This is an auction story where boy buys girls, then boy screws the crap out of girl nonstop.
Again sexy story. I voluntarily read an advanced reader copy for my honest review.

Sterling Montgomery has everything he has ever wanted. He has money and looks and has built multi-million-dollar companies from the ground up, but Sterling is bored and so are his friends. When one of his best friends approaches him to come to a secret auction Sterling really doesn’t want to go, but he won’t let his friend down either. Just planning on going to look Sterling is surprised to find Tilly Harrington the once former heiress to the Harrington fortune. Sterling knows that it’s because of Tilly’s parents and their financial ruin that she is up on the auction block. He is now determined to get Tilly and make her his and then make her parents suffer for what they did to their own daughter. Tilly is grateful that she is purchased by someone that she knows of, but she has no idea what Sterling has in mind for her.
Buying the Heiress is a hot story that will keep you reading to see what the naughty billionaire Sterling is going to do next. Sterling is all about the sex and keeping himself and his new woman Tilly satisfied. He has some guilt that to get Tilly he had to buy her but once he has her that guilt doesn’t stand in the way of him wrapping her hair around his fist and taking what he wants. This story is a tongue wagging page turner. Hot, dirty, and with a HEA.

Great new release from Stella Stone! This book is about Tillie and Stalone. Tillie is sold by her parents and is out on an auction block. Stalone happens to go to this auction and sees Tillie and the rest is history. While this couple knew of each other previously, they hadn’t ever had any interactions. This is an insta love story full of hot sex.

Sterling Montgomery grew up in wealthy circles and has managed to do well for himself. He is asked by his friend, Aldrich, to accompany him to an auction where they buy women.
Tilly Harrington grew up in the same circles as Sterling but some bad decisions by her parents have resulted in her being sold in order to pay off her parents debts. She is humiliated by what she is going through and frustrated that this is happening to her.
When Sterling spots Tilly he knows he has to buy her at any cost but will she be willing to be bought and what will come of it?
This was a good and hot book!
I liked Sterling and was glad that he happened to show up at the auction and I am really hoping that this kick starts something big for these guys to do the right thing. I loved how protective he was over Tilly from the first moment he saw her.
What Tilly went through just broke my heart. I was in shock at what happened to her because of her parents and it just blew my mind what their actions were later in the book. I was glad she grew to have a new family and was surrounded by friends that loved her.
Tilly and Sterling were so hot together and I loved how he truly put her best interests first. I was curious to see if the stuff with her parents would come back to haunt Sterling or not.
The epilogue totally surprised me and made me laugh!

Sterling Montgomery is a super sexy, highly successful, uber rich young man, who get any woman he wants, but when he's talked into going to an illegal auction of women, even though he didn't want to go at all, he goes with his best friends. Once there, he's shocked to see a woman that used to run in their circles up for auction, Tilly Harrington, and he can't help himself, he has to purchase her. Come to find out, her parents have sold her to pay off their debts, and he's furious. So after he makes her his, he's going to make them pay. Buying the Heiress is the first book that I've read by Stella Stone, and I really liked her talented writing style a lot. Sterling was a super hot alpha male, while Tilly was a big hearted heroine who got a bad deal. They lit the sheets on fire during sexy times to such a degree, that I'm shocked the bed wasn't left in ashes to be honest, so no panties will be left standing. My biggest issue that kept me from giving that final star was the length, as it made it too rushed in my opinion. (LET ME REPEAT THIS IS MY OPINION) I am invested in this series so I cannot wait for the next book and HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Five ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Pretty Girl” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ stars
Who will place a bid on this beauty ?
A beautiful Heiress (damsel in distress)
Maybe....
An alpha, gorgeous Billionaire (knight in shining honor)
~He happens to be in the wrong place at the right time.
~She happens to be in the worst place at exactly the same time.
Sterling Montgomery didn’t want to go that night. He was kind of ashamed of where he let his friend’s talk him into going; but, if he hadn’t gone, if he would have said no, he wouldn’t have come face-to-face with her. You could have knocked him over with a feather, he knew her, that’s how surprised he was. His whole life changed in those few minutes.
Tilly Harrington was an Heiress, complete with snobby parents, fake friends, and a trust fund. So, how did she end up in handcuffs, beautifully coiffed, makeup done to perfection, and auctioned off to the highest bidder ?
She has been purchased, bought and paid for.
Let the sex begin...

This book is an erotic romance with scorching hot sex scenes. It's instalove but the two main characters knew each other beforehand. I like that Sterling's personality comes out when he talked to his friends. I thought he was funny which I didn't expect. They are all rich and I love how the author chose character names that screamed money - Sterling Montgomery, Tillie Harrington, Aldrich, Connery, Whitaker Sullivan. The only thing that could make it more upper crust is to add a number at the end of the name.
I think the book was enjoyable and well written. Overall, I look forward to more of Stella Stone.

I would love to review this book and talk about the excellent story line and the depth and believability of the characters. Unfortunately I can't as I would estimate 97% of the book seems to be Tilly and Stirling having sex. Now I am not against sexy books but there was basically nothing to this one. The premise sounded great and there was real potential for a fabulous story with her adjusting to life after being bought and him making her parents life hell but there was just no substance at all.

This book was hot and heavy from the very begining! I really liked the story line and plot. A rich man in high society tags along on a whim to a secret auction and buys (literally) a woman who's family has fallen from grace and dragged her with them. What starts out as pure lust quickly turns into love.
My only critique would be that it all happens a little too fast for my liking. I wish we would have had a bit more back story and character development. But other than that I liked it.
If you are looking for a quick read that is super steamy and erotic, then this is the book for you!

My first book by Stella Stone and I definitely will come back for more. This book is scorching, romantic insta love story between a billionaire and an heiress who goes up for auction due to her parents debt. I could feel the chemistry between Sterling and Tillie throughout and the length was reasonable that u enjoy reading the story without it being too much. Sterling is the ultimate alpha. i like that hes a take charge kind of male.
May 8, 2018
Here you meet a hot Sterling and Tillie, an insta-love story that starts off with Sterling buying Tillie at an auction because he has to have her. A quick, easy, steamy read with lots of sex. I was surprised how it ended, I wasn't expecting it. If you don't like a lot of sex, this isn't the book for you since most of the book is about sex. It's a sweet story in its own way and I really enjoyed reading it.

Buying the Heiress is a naughty distraction of real life. I got completely lost in the world of these Alpha Billionaires. Stella Stones creates characters you want to know because of their strength and tenderness. Buying the Heiress reminds us of the reality of life without feeling guilty in the pleasure this couple creates. I am looking forward to more of these couples especially with the teasing we are given from them. Grab this easy and quick escape today.
May 12, 2018
Sterling is a powerful man that can get anything he wants. There’s no limit to him. Tilly is a tough omen that has been dealt a bad hand. Her parents weren’t really the best parents and she was just a pawn for them. Sterling meets Tilly in an odd way and can’t take his eyes off of her. He must have her in any way he can. He wants to save her also. This is a very quick read. Fast pace and loved it.
March 2, 2018
This is my first book by Stella Stone but not my last. This book is a quick steamy read. Tillie psrents are selling her and Sterling happen to be there and boom the minute he sees her he needs her. Tille and sterling know about eachother before this auction butvit definitely instalove and steamy times from the start.

Buying the Heiress is the first book in the Alpha Billionaires Series and the first book I have read by Stella Stone. It was a quick sexy read with a great storyline and even as short as the story was the characters were well written and thought out.

A hot and steamy story, and lots of it!! Who would have thought that buying a woman at an auction could turn into true love. When Sterling realises that Tilly on on the auction block, he immediately buys her. It is lust at first sight for these two with lots of lovey dovey feelings as well. A quick read.
March 2, 2018
Smoldering, sexy, hot , I loved every last moment of this super steamy book I loved the characters the development it flowed at a good pace I was intrigued I cannot wait to see what else Stella brings to the table I know it’s going. To be amazing get those one-click fingers ready!!

Completely safe (no OW/ OM).
But it's just sex, sex and more sex.
The saving grace of this book was that the H was all about the h once he saw her.

Hot!
Definitely a hot story! I loved the happily ever after. My only comment is I would have liked to see more conflict. The conflict that was present was resolved quickly and the story could almost move without those scenes at all. Very well written, a nice hot treat!

I enjoyed reading this book. It was an easy, fast faced read. It was full of hot kinky sex. Sterling is the alpha male from my deepest darkest fantasies. I'd be willing to be his Tilly any day. If you want to read a naughty romance this book is a must.
June 17, 2018
Sex sex sex. Guy buya girl at auction screws her a lot.. Fall passionately in love. Screw some more. This is just sex, no back story, no development of characters, could of been from a column from sex mag from seventies. Just hot sex. well written sex though. Recommended over 18.
June 17, 2018
This story was really hot and steamy. The start to Tilly and Sterling’s relationship was unconventional but it worked for them. I have no issues with insta-love but I would have liked a little more of a back story since they have know each other for some time. All in all a good hot read.
July 8, 2018
There was a little drama mostly in the beginning of this story, but it was pretty brief. It was pretty fast paced and easy to read. This was basically a alpha love story with lots of physical activity. I'm not sure if I was looking for more drama, or not. Still, it was an enjoyable read.
April 30, 2018
Tilly gets sold and what she didn’t count on is getting bought by the boy that caught her heart a long time ago. Will tilly and sterling chemistry chemistry work? This story was mega hot and yummy!
May 7, 2018
Who would think that buying someone at an auction would end this way? Hot story, lots and lots of sexy. And a happily ever after for the rich man and his pretty girl. Quick, easy read.
