“He’s a drop-dead-gorgeous billionaire and I’m a single mom just trying to make ends meet. We could never make it work… or could we?”
Tia Birchfield had big ambitions, but life kind got in the way. Now she’s a taxi driver, working hard to do the best by the number one man in her life – her ten-year-old son, Ryan.
When she takes an old friend up on the offer of a free vacation, Tia’s worried about fitting in at a five-star resort in Switzerland. The last thing she expects is to end up eating dinner with a billionaire!
In her panic, she lets gorgeous, filthy rich Maxim make his own assumptions about her, and soon ends up trapped in a web of lies, with a fake back story to boot!
As the weekend snowballs, so too does the barely restrained romance between Tia and the smoldering hot single dad. As their children, two kids from different worlds, strike up a beautiful friendship, Tia has to wonder to herself: could it really work between her, the blue-collar gal, and the billionaire?
Soon enough it’s time to head home, and Tia cuts herself off rather than risk her ruse being discovered. Little does she know, the truth is going to come out in the most unexpected way!
Can these two small families unite, and become a beautiful new one?
This is the ninth book in the Billionaires of Europe series.

What an enjoyable quick flowing HEA. Here we see hard working West Virginian single mum Tia & her son Ryan who got given an unexpected opportunity for a long weekend holiday to Switzerland when her long time best mate Jenny couldn't go with her son & knowing that Tia hasn't had a holiday in a very long time. And its this 1st day she meets very handsome single Dad to Lucie, Maxim Schelling who's the CEO to 1 of the largest banks in Switzerland. Though from the off start Tia could tell Maxim was well off, they seemed to click from the start of their first conversation as had Ryan & Lucie during the same time & they started to become closer very quickly during this weekend, though Tia just started to pull away just before her & Ryan were going to fly out, due to the way she feels how she kept her true employment from him. They both feel like that, that's it between them but as the kids keep in touch when they go back to their lives, we see how things proceed & change for them especially for Tia... One HEA for 2 different families....

They learn that their kids are becoming fast friends so they make plans to hang out more together. By the end of her trip she knows that she's falling for him but she has told him the truth about what she does. So she tries to make a clean break and returns to her own life.

I volunteered to read this ARC for an honest review. I enjoyed this story about Maxim and Tia. She's a single mom in WV that drives a taxi to make ends meet. He's a single dad, billionaire CEO of his family's bank. Tia and her son Ryan end up in Switzerland when get friend Jenny request that they go in get place, since work came up. It's all paid for it's just when they get there she had to us Jenny's name for reservations. Maxim and Lucie are on holiday before she goes back to her boarding school from spring break. Maxim and Tia see each other in the lobby but go in different directions. When a dinner alone at the resort's restaurant leaves Tia without a table and Maxim one, he offers her to sit with him. This is the start of a wonderful weekend. Great conversations and easy atmosphere leaves time to become friends. When their kids meet they even become friends to. But Tia is afraid to let him really know her, since she feels inferior due to her financial standing. This is a great story about how to people from very different backgrounds can still be compatible.

A great love story of opposites attract. The story was well written, the characters were great the and the chemistry between them was well developed. Tia had big ambitions, but life kind of got in the way. She is a taxi driver and is a single mom to her son Ryan. So when her good friend offers her a free vacation to Switzerland, she jumps at the change. They only thing is she must check in as her friend. So when she meets billionaire, Maxim and his daughter. She has told a few littles lies and a fake back story, but she won't be seeing him again after the weekend so how can it hurt. What she didn't realize was the feelings that she would have for him and his daughter. Will she come clean with him or just go back home? The book will keep you turing pages till the end to see what happens.

Holly Rayner, yet again, gives us a well written storyline that had me hooked from beginning to end. I absolutely loved this book and would definitely say that it’s worth 5+ stars. The story is about Tia, Maxim and their children Ryan and Lucie. The author weaves a beautiful tale of these single parents’ love for their children, how they meet and the connection and love that grows between them. Rayner’s characters are always likeable, realistic and have an inner strength that enables them to overcome any obstacles thrown in their path. I’m a huge fan of Holly Rayner and I think you should definitely read this wonderful book, I guarantee you’ll love it as much as I did.

This book grabbed my attention right away because single parent romances are my guilty pleasure. I LOVED that both of the main characters were single parents. I honestly don't think I have read that type of situation before. It's usually one single parent. It had a slow start, but picked up quickly. The character development was nice. I really liked that Tia was so relatable. This was a really enjoyable read!

Will Tia take a leap of faith to let love grow This is my 8th book by Holly and I love an author who writes in dual point of view. Tia, a single mom who struggles to pay the bills, is given a free vacation to Switzerland by her friend. She meets Maxim, a billionaire, single dad at the resort restaurant and they hit it off along with their children. But will Tia’s pretense about her real life keep the two apart? You have to read to find out and will enjoy their children playing cupid.
This story is simply one of the better ones from this author. And that is simply the way I feel about the story while reading it. It is quite well written and I enjoyed reading it. The story line is quite good and refreshingly different from many written by this author. I loved the characters and what their life experiences were. Just job well done.

Tia is a blue collar worker, a taxi driver, trying to make things work for her son. Maxim is a billionaire single father, and a gorgeous one at that. Thrown together at a 5 star resort, she is soon lost in a web of lies with a backstory to boot! The best thing to happen to them is the sweet friendship their children make.

This is the ninth book in the Billionaires of Europe series and is a wonderful addition to the series. Two people from different worlds find themselves attracted to each other. Secrets galore combined with explosive chemistry makes for an entertaining story. I read an advance reader copy via Booksprout and voluntarily chose to review.
I really liked this sweet and emotional read. Tia and Maxim are both single parents but that is where the similarities end. Can they find love? With secrets and big differences standing in the way this couple has some work to do on the road to a HEA. A very heartfelt and enjoyable romance. This is my voluntary, honest review.
I loved this book. It kept me engrossed from the start. I loved Tia and Maxim together and really enjoyed the fact that even though Tia hadn’t been truthful Maxim took it all in his stride instead of having the usual feeling of betrayal. This has got to be one of the books I have enjoyed most

What a sweet rags to riches story! Maxim and Tia were such a good fit even though they were from different worlds literally. Their children Ryan and Lucie just made this story all the sweeter.
