Hands down Off Limits is the best book in the series. I really enjoyed the whole series. This book takes the cake.
Off limits starts off with Alaina reflecting why she left London and ended back in the states to finish college and moved back in with her parents.
Mason is Alaina's older brother's best friend, Who is like family. She has had a crush on him since she was sixteen. He has some demons from his past, Doesn’t want to get in a relationship.
Trevor and the wish maker are back. After mason talks to Trevor who tells him about the wish maker. Enters he is set up on a blind date which ends up being Alaina. They decided to go through with the date. The chemistry just flows off the pages.
For months both take turns on trying to avoid each other and the sexual tension between them, Until one day at his office, Holy hotness. From there I couldn’t stop reading. I was rooting for the two the whole time to make it. Have tissues ready. There will be a part you need them. At least for me, I did. Well written and a very good read.

This is the 6th book in the series but it can be read as a stand-alone. Alaina has had a crush on her brother’s best friend for years, but Mason doesn’t do relationships. What will happen when the wish maker sets them up on a date. Fast-paced read with plenty of drama and steam. The chemistry is off the charts hot and the characters have lots of depth and emotion. I loved it!

C.C. Piper brings forth such emotion and turmoil as these guys never have before! They simply keep you captivated and make your heart ache then burst with warmth.

Alaina Williams is aboard for college and out from under her overprotective father and brother and her overbearing, condescending mother. Until the afternoon she literally catches her long term boyfriend, all most fiance, with her BFF/roommate having sex in her room. Then she packs up and returns home in the middle of the night. Now back home, she struggles with being seen as the little girl her family only sees her as. To make matters worse, she still has a crush on her big brother's best friend, Mason King, and doesn't believe he sees her as anything else other than Andy's little sister.

Mason has known the Williams family his entire life. Growing up he was always with Andy even through college, and when tragedy struck his life twice the Williams family was there for him. They became the family he lost. When he encounters Alaina again, he shocked at the woman she's become; and the instant attraction he feels toward her. In an attempt to stay away from her, Mason contacts the Wish Maker and asks for a date. The Wish Maker grants his request, but unbeknownst to him he's paired with Alaina as his ideal date.

After a night of simple fun, Mason is determined to just be friends with Alaina, even though he absolutely wants Alaina, believing he could never be with her because of his close connections to her family. Alaina embarrassed after their date keeps her distance from Mason too, thinking she could never make Mason see her as anything else but Andy's little sister. But after some advice from a friend, Alaina goes after Mason with all she has. And Mason can no longer deny his attraction or want of her.

Secretly Mason and Alaina start a relationship. Even after an incredible weekend away, and both realizing they are in love with the other, and neither saying a word to the other, Mason is still unconvinced it'll be okay to announce their relationship yet, and he convinces Alaina to wait just a little while longer. Alaina torn, agrees with him, until her big brother wants to give his best friend the birthday weekend he didn't get to. Jealous, worried and wanting to check up on Mason, Alaina goes to the country club they are at. Believing Mason has cheated Alaina runs, and is in a life threatening accident. Mason just wants this night over, and pretends to be doing things he isn't. He just can't cheat on Alaina. Never knowing she had been at the country club, Mason is left reeling when he and Andy get the news Alaina is in the hospital ICU.

Still keeping their relationship a secret from the Williams family, Mason can only watch Alaina through the window of the ICU. Wondering about his behaviour, Andy asks him what's going on, and Mason finally gives up his vigil. He comes back to the hospital once Alaina is in a private room and alert. And realizes some of the trauma has left Alaina without much of a filter. Once she sees Mason in the doorway of her room, Alaina let's the cat out of the bag, and Mason is left having to answer questions and Andy beating the hell out of him. Never fighting his best friend back, Mason takes it, tells Alaina he's in love with her and she's worth anything, and then disappears.

Alaina needing to stay in the hospital, is left wondering where Mason has gone and why he hasn't returned. With a newly healed relationship with her mother, she tells her about her and Mason's relationship and asking if they've seen him. When she learns they don't know where he is, she wonders if he really loves her at all.

Until he can come to understand that he isn't the reason he's lost so much, Mason goes into hiding. Once he visits his parents grave and finally mourns does he understand none of the tragedy in his
life is his fault, despite what he's believed for years. Finally ready to confront the Williams' and Andy about his love for Alaina, Mason goes home ready to talk to them. Andy waiting for him in his living room, tells Mason how angry he is over Mason leaving his sister while she's in the hospital and asking for him. Going to the hospital with Andy, Mason is ready to explain everything, apologize and tell Alaina how much he loves and wants a relationship with her.

Will she believe him? Will they finally get to be together without the secrecy? Or has Mason ruined their chance at an HEA?

Sometimes the wish you ask for is not the one that is actually fulfilled

Off Limits by C.C. Piper is anything but. Instead it is a book that you can't actually put down once you crack it open. This is the story of Alaina and Mason. Mason King is a twenty-eight year old lawyer in Seattle, WA who has been made partner the firm which is owned by his best friend Andy Williams and Andy's father, so it is now Williams, Williams and King. He has just about everything he has wanted but one thing, Alaina.
Alaina Williams is twenty-one years old and has just moved back to Seattle from London, England. She was there attending college but cut it short when she found her now ex-boyfriend and ex-roommate were sleeping together. So she heads back to Seattle where she moves back in to the family home and attends Seattle University. She has known Mason for a long time and always had a crush on him. But he has been treated like family by hers so he was always a no go area.
The WishMaker is back again also and when Mason makes his wish for a companion for a night. He is set-up on a date with Alaina which surprises them both but they decide to have a fun evening and the chemistry is off the charts. There is the slight issue of Mason who has always warned all of his friends to stay away from Alaina or he would kill them. So now what do they do once they decide they want more of each other in every way?

I really enjoyed this story the most in the series. It is wonderfully written with a lot of emotion, drama, depth and a whole bunch of chemistry. The characters are just right for the story-line and that includes the supporting characters. This story proves that sometimes the wish you ask for is not the one you really need to come true.

I received an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review. My opinions are all my own.

Alaina Williams was sister to Andy Williams and daughter to Mason King's employer and BFF to Andy Williams. Mason was Andy's best friend and a partner in her fathers law firm, Williams, Williams and King. Alaina had gone to school in London England and came home after finding out that her boyfriend Auggie and her roommate Gwen were having sex in her bedroom. She felt like a failure and she took the first plane back to the states back to her parents home.She goes home and attends the University of Seattle where her parents live, which she loves. She is goes to see her father for their weekly lunch that they have together and ran into Mason King. The Williams family have a weekly meal on Mondays that Mason attends, seeing as he has no family. Mason is an only child. He lost both his parents to an airplane accident in which he suggested they go sky diving on, so he felt responsible and the his only real relationship was Sophie. When she was his girlfriend he was trying to prove something in the firm where he was working to make a name for himself. She died two months after they broke up from a head on collision. He felt if she was still with him she wouldn't have been on this narrow curvy road and would not have died. So Mason attended the Williams weekly dinner and now especially because he was drawn to his best friend's sister. The story takes off from their. You get to find out if and when and if they did get together, How. I thought this was a wonderful book. It was upbeat for the most part but their was some sad parts but overall I would highly recommend this book. Loved it.

WOW...I could not put this book down! Off Limits is the sixth book in C.C. Piper’s The Billionaire’s Secret Club which focuses on Alaina Williams, who has had a crush on Mason since sixteen, and Mason King, Alaina’s brother’s (Trevor) best friend. Trevor tells Mason about the club and the Wish Maker who arranges a blind date for Mason who turns out to be Alaina. They attempt to avoid each other after the date but eventually succumbs to their feelings. How will this end up for this couple? I highly recommend this great read with wonderful characters with strong sexual attraction and a plot with secrets, emotions, and romance!

Mason & Alaina are the best story in this series I just loved them both, even her brother is a good character.
They are set up on a blind date but they know each other as Mason is her brothers best friend and has been in her live forever.
They realise how attracted they are to each other but Mason knows her brother will kill him for being with his baby sister.
So they tell no one and they start to see each other and an accident happens which then means her family become aware of their relationship.
He does spiral a bit after the hospital scenario but it’s her brother who makes him realise what’s important, the two lads do have a good relationship also which is why Mason never wanted to fall for Alaina as he never wanted to lose his best friend.

The Wishmaker Strikes Again!

Alaina moved all the way to London to escape her overbearing mother. But when she finds her fiancé with her roommate, she literally picks up and returns to the US and the family home. When she runs into her older brother’s best friend, and partner in her father’s firm Mason fireworks begin.

Mason has lost everyone he has loved and decided not to travel that path again. When he runs into Alaina, he knows she is “forbidden fruit”. Love the depth of characters and the growing relationship.

The trials of family, and the wonders of finding the right person to share your life with.

Off Limits : A Dark Billionaire Romance is book 6 in The Billionaire's Secret Club Series. This is the story of Alaina and Mason. I do feel this can be a standalone book if you wish to do so.
Alaina is back from London after she found her fiancé cheating on her with her roommate. Now she is back working to start her life again but who does she run into but Mason. Mason is her brother's best friend and also works at the family firm. So he is off limits to her and him to her but the sparks are there and when they are mistakenly put together for a 'session' it opens them up to explore their desire but what will happen when they are found out? Steamy read.

Mason has loved Alaina all his life. She's his best friends sister and he's a high powered lawyer. Mason is scared of losing another loved one so he keeps his distance from Alina. After meeting up again their relationship is off the charts. They start to see each other but try to keep it a secret from the families. The sexual tension between these two jumps off the pages. They finally get their HEA. The book is awesome you need to read how everything works out for them. I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Alaina has always had a crush on Mason... her older brothers best friend.
Mason being off relationships at the moment enlists Trevor’s (book 1 wrecked) help and the help of the wishmaker.
As a result he ends up on a blind date with Alaina.
What ensues next is a lot of back and forth trying to deny their attraction to each other.
But said attraction and chemistry is off the charts hot.
Great forbidden romance with secrets and all the feels.
One of my favs in this series.

This is the best story so far!!! Mason and Alaina's story is a little naughty and very much entertaining to read. Mason is a high power lawyer who needs a companion for an evening and he ask the wishmaker to set him up. Turns out that Alaina is the date and she is his friend Andy's sister that he hasn't seen for a few years. They are drawn to each other but their family history might be in the way???? I love where this series is going and i hope this is not the last book.

Alaina is moving home after finding her roommate and boyfriend in a compromising position. Mason is her brother's best friend and her high school crush. Their relationship is kept hidden from her family but at what cost.

Great characters. The story line was good. I felt that the story moved slow in some spots.

Wanting her is wrong. It always has been.
After all, Alaina is my best friend’s little sister.
She’s wild, yet innocent.
I’d been craving her when the club accidentally set us up.
The beautiful accident might lead to something ugly.
Her overprotective brother can’t find out about us.
But I’m ready to fight him till the end.
I’d do anything to have Alaina in my life.
But what happens when tragedy strikes and it’s too late?
Will I be able to get to her on time

I received an arc for an honest review. This story brings us Mason and Alaina. Mason is Alaina's brother, Andy's best friend, so his attraction to Alaina breaks the bro-code. However, their chemistry cannot be denied, but they must keep in between the two of them. How long will it be before someone from either family finds out about them. This is a great read and I highly recommend it.

Talk about tension! Mason and Alaina have it in spades and it gets better and better. They can only hold off for so long before their chemistry is too combustible. I enjoyed reading the story and the suspense while also getting to see Mason and Alaina give in.

The story is told from the point of view of Mason and Alaina both from their first POV. If you enjoyed the rest of the books in this series, this one will be no different. Alaina's point of view was perfect to read especially after what happens to her. A good read. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

This is a really great series and it just keeps getting better with every book that is released. This is a fantastic plot and has the main characters having some amazing chemistry that they do their best to ignore. It’s a steady paced read that had me rooting for the couple.

Off Limits is a well written, steamy page turning story between a woman and her brother's best friend. The characters are well developed and the story is good. Mason and Alaina have great chemistry and no matter how much they fight it they belong together. Off Limits is book six of The Billionaire's Secret Club Series.

It's my first time reading this authors work and I was not disappointed with the series. There were times I felt the attraction between the couples was running too fast which made it unnatural.
Having said that I enjoyed the banter between all the couple and this kept me laughing uncontrollably throughout.
It was an easy 5 stars for me.

What happens when you have a crush on your older brother's best friend? What happens when you grow up and he sees you as a woman? How long are you gonna hide it from their family? Is love worth coming clean?
