The billionaire always gets what he wants. This time, he wants me…
My trip to London was the first lucky break I’ve had in years. It came at just the right time, allowing me to escape my sad reality for a bit. And the guy I met on the flight?
Perfection.
The short week we spent together was filled with raw, unbridled, and passionate nights. But it couldn’t last. I’m a single mom with a troubled past and a shady ex. Romance just isn’t in the cards for me.
Which is why I walked away from Jim and didn’t look back.
That was before I landed my new job. Before I met the boss.
Before I discovered that Mr. James Mitchell, CEO, was my Jim—my unforgettable Jim from our week together in England.
Judging by the smile on his face when he sees me, he remembers everything.
And now he wants more.
He wants me.
The timing is terrible. My life’s a mess, and I just know my ex will do something to ruin me. Again.
But none of that matters when I’m in Jim’s arms.
So, what are the odds that I’m finally due for my very own happily ever after?
Raylin Marks is the author of steamy romance and fun adventures!! Her love and passion for writing is purely driven to help introduce readers to characters and fun worlds to get lost in with hot alpha males that make even Raylin swoon as she writes them. Marks stepped into the publishing world with her debut Reverse Harem series: Immortal Devotion. She moved from there into a different steamy genre and wrote Chase’s story in a stand-alone book titled: Needing Chase. After Chase, Raylin decided to finally let these “Billionaires” start having their voice. In July 2020, the first book in her Billionaires’ Club series was released: Dr. Mitchell. She’s excited to continue on through the lives of the rest of these men. Let’s hope her laptop can hang while she continues on her journey of writing and publishing.
I am in between 2 or 3 stars. At the end, I rounded it down to 2 stars. After I enjoyed the previous books in this series, Mr. Mitchell is the weak one. I am shocked to find many things lacking.
The characters do not seems to grow/ develop. Both Jim and Avery stuck in the plot. The plot is very very boring. Ex boyfriend who is drunk and addicted to drug does not evolved with the story. Just as accesoris in the background.
The story is also mundane. Nothing new or exciting or climax that grabbed my attention. While listening to the audiobook, I lost interest toward the end.
I enjoyed the first book, but I really disliked this one. I dnf'd it at about 40% in. The main reason being the heroine. She is a recovering addict who admits that she has made lots of bad choices. She is flying to London to see her sister. Yet she takes off with a random guy she met on an airplane to his house in the country. She continues to make bad choices. There was no chemistry between the couple. I actually felt bad for the hero that he would fall for someone like her.
I've got this book as an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
I've read the first book a while back and honestly I do remember the main characters, but only slightly so I needed to remind myself quite a bit.
This book was amazing! I'd say it it was even better than the first book! Also when I started reading my "time" was 7 hrs, but when it finally loaded completely it was 10 hrs and around 30 mins and I was like "Damn, this is a hell of a long book, haha!" I was afraid I'd get tired of it eventually, but nope! Quite opposite. I need more of it. When I was 50% in, I couldn't believe it and I knew that I'd need even more of this book!
I gotta say that Raylin is an amazing writer, seriously! She exactly knows how to drag you in and not let go! We've got 2 POVs here and both were amazing! One time -only- did I want the POV to be more Avery than Jim, but I can't complain other than that.
I loved Avery more than anything. I loved how strong she was from the first page of the book till the end. I also loved how she didn't want to spoil her daughter Addison, which is rare to read about in books. I loved her comebacks and appetite for food. So fun to watch and read unravel.
Jim was amazing too! He was way different than his brother, but super protective and supportive of him. I loved him. He was funny, but serious when needed. Didn't show much to other people, but lot to people he cared about. He did have his inner demons he needed to fight to get through it, but in the end he could manage it. He was a super hard workaholic, but the moment he was with Avery he tried his best to be present with her and Addy.
I loved the way Raylin brought other characters into this book too. I loved seeing Ash, Jake, Collin, Alex and more people being involved. Especially I loved and laughed a lot at many scenes that involved them. My, probably the most, favourite scene was when Jim asked Jake to go and buy McDonald's for everyone. Since Jake is a cardiovascular doctor, he asked something along the way "Are you seriously asking cardiovascular doctor to go and buy fat food?", but when he came back with Ash, he didn't bring 2-4 bags of food for everyone, nope! He bought like 15 bags with him, haha! I was laughing so much! THE best scene in this book! I really loved it.
I've been in a reading slump recently, picking up a few books but stopping as soon as I realize I'm not getting hooked. The stress of work is making it hard to focus. So I was looking for something light and predictable to play in the background while I worked. This book checks all the boxes and was readily available to me.
The female protagonist was a walking baggage. It's not the kid, or the ex, or even the drugs in the past... it's the way she acts. Everything just screams drama and attitude, and not a charming way you can overlook because it's a romance novel. It's the way she picks a fight with strangers at the museum, at the company daycare, etc... The combination of entitlement and batshit-crazy in public gave me a huge second-hand cringe every time.
The one redeeming quality was towards the end of the novel. Despite being dumped, she figured out what was right for herself and worked to make changes for the better. Extra point because she's doing it for herself (and her kid), and not because of the guy.
The male protagonist is a dude Mary Sue, someone who is just too perfect. Rich, handsome, caring, falls madly in love the very first second he meets the female main character. I wish there's a bit more, character? He is very sweet though, towards the kid.
The story ended on a good note. The plot is to be expected. Just the female character's attitude and behavior, in the beginning, would have been a bit more attractive if she toned it down a bit... or a lot. You can have a strong, sympathetic character without all those hard edges.
Billionaire Book#2 Mr Mitchell *James and Avery Meet Cute *Avery sees James for the first time He glanced up, and brilliant green eyes framed by dark lashes met mine, throwing me completely off. Good lord, I’d never seen a man this handsome before in my life. Guys who looked like this modeled Gucci suits and lived on the covers of magazines for women to drool over. Now I was being seated next to this handsome man on a non-stop flight from L.A. to London. Talk about a first-class upgrade. *James helps her out A tapping to my right arm brought my angered expression to the man sitting at my right with a smirk, he rose his eyebrows and mouthed, “I can handle this if you’d like?”either trust the man dressed like a lawyer sitting next to me to bail me out, or get off the plane. My life only led to option two, so I decided to go for it with this guy. I handed him my phone—his hands were even beautiful. Now, all of this has been recorded for my team and me. We will keep this while we continue to look into the custody and your sanity as the father of Addison. The gorgeous man who bullshitted my psycho ex handed me my phone. “I can’t thank you enough for that,” I said, my eyes captured by his, and his smile instantly made me grin like a girl, crushing on a Hollywood star. “I’m Avery,” I said with a smile. “I’m Jim,” he extended his hand out toward me. God, I wanted to join the mile-high club with this guy, but we just became friends over me telling him that I made the mistake of screwing a drug addict and got pregnant with his kid. 2nd Meet *Jim I fell under some crazy hypnotism she worked with those eyes and the stunning sharp features of her face. I would be lying if I said she didn’t stick with me, and I wish I’d taken her up on her offer to have sex on the plane. She was only teasing, but I’d fantasized about it more times than I wanted to admit since I’d been in London. the most beautiful woman I’d ever had the pleasure of seeing. Seriously. Her black hair set off her striking blue eyes, and I swear the woman looked like the one of the pixies that my sister-in-law had painted for her art gallery. I couldn’t take my eyes off her on the plane, and I couldn’t take them off her now. Jim “Well, I saw a beautiful woman sitting alone. I remembered her well from our flight together. I also find her attractive, and I couldn’t imagine her dining alone tonight. Am I at fault for taking advantage of a situation with a beautiful woman left alone?” *Jim a knight in shining armour I could have fallen into the stream, and Derek would have laughed along with everyone else. That was how I was used to being treated. I wasn’t accustomed to some knight-in-shining-armor, sensing the rudeness of someone toward me and it pissing him off. All of my life, I’d never had anyone come to my defense like that. I’d never had someone who gave a half a damn about how I was treated. Jim said that I intrigued him? No, that was quite the other way around. I was the one intrigued by him and fortunate to have met him, even if England was all we’d ever have. *Avery sex on the brain 🧠 I was sitting here, wishing we were exploring whether or not we’d enjoy having sex after our dinner talk instead. After three years of not being intimate, I was down for this guy to take all the control he wanted while fucking me. I’d take dungeon sex right about now. *Jim Then there was Avery. I felt myself drawn to her in more ways than I ever deemed possible with a woman. I watched her take in the sights of the village like she was a celestial creature who’d brought me into this wave of bliss by examining her beauty and listening to her laugh. She’d freed my soul from these strange bondages of work that held me hostage, whether I wanted to believe my company did that to me or not. She hit me straight with facts. She smiled so beautifully she took my breath away. Everything about her was making it extremely hard to fight against these new and raw emotions I was having now. I should’ve never let it all go as far as it did tonight, but I did without thinking. That’s when, even though I knew it was a terrible idea, I kissed her when she asked. Her moans and bringing her lips to mine while her body was writhing in pleasure by my touch—that was part two of falling victim to this blue-eyed beauty. There was a cautious and caring way that I engaged in kissing her. It was intimate as hell, and I knew it. I savored her taste, her moans against my lips, and her body moving beneath me. Goddamn I had to have her. Now. I pushed back from my desk, got up, and trotted toward my room. That’s when I realized it was three in the morning. Fuck me, had I been staring at that email string for that long? Shit. I grabbed one of the boxes of condoms I took with me from the states. I knew I’d get laid on the trip here, and two weeks’ worth of condoms should’ve been enough—except the person I thought I’d be fucking turned up married. Avery intrigued me at first. Her endurable and robust personality. Her sexy as fuck scratchy voice. Her smile and dazzling eyes. I knew I’d eventually wind up fucking her, but never imagined the sensations to be this incredible. Last night was one for the books. She was a wildcat all night, and for the first time since renovating the manor, I put some of these museum-like rooms to good use. Aside from fantastic sex, the woman had a spark of energy that I didn’t think anything could put out. This is what I needed in life, I suppose—a fun, wild, adventurous, and fearless woman. Avery and Jim with Addy “I’m scared to death I’ll lose you again. I’ll admit here and now, that is my greatest fear.” *Insert phone quotes
*88% done *Jim and Avery come together on Jake’s Yacht for Ash’s birthday 🎂 *Role playing like they did in England where they first fell for each other.
“Excuse me, ma’am?”(Jim) “Sir?” I said, seeing Jim’s brilliant green eyes, spellbound by his presence. “Does your husband approve of you, sitting here at the bar all by yourself?” I eyed him as he sipped his bourbon. His expression was light and happy. I thought I’d never see that look again. “Why would my husband disapprove?” I asked, playing along like I would’ve when we were in England. I hadn’t seen him in so long that I didn’t know if we were still the same people anymore, but I wanted to talk with him—laugh with him—more than anything. “Well, you’re dressed as if you’re here and single.” He nodded to where everyone was dancing and enjoying the night out to sea. “And there’s plenty of men out there, eyeing you in this stunning dress you’re wearing.” I looked in the direction he looked, and then my eyes met his playful ones. “Interesting. To answer your question, though, I’m not quite sure what my husband would think.” I shrugged, “I haven’t seen him in many, many months.” “Months?” Jim’s eyes widened as he sat next to me at the bar. “What the hell happened? Long-distance relationship?” “It all started on our honeymoon.” I waved the bartender over and ordered another martini. “We got all caught up in this Henry the Eighth and Anne Boleyn love story, stayed at an amazing castle, and who would’ve thought we’d turn into the pair—the modern-day version, of course.” “I see you still have your head, so maybe you’re trying to say that he’s the one who got his head cut off?” “Alas, no,” I sighed. “Anne Boleyn had a few secrets that she chose not to divulge to her beloved Henry—you know, past misdeeds. It turns out that Anne and I had that in common, and we were too stupid to speak up.” He eyed me. “I do recall that king was extremely hurt, and his rage—perhaps his madness of insecurities and his own personal demons led him to do the worst thing possible to his wife. Could it be possible that your husband did the same?” “I’m not sure—just as Anne wasn’t sure what the hell was going on in Henry’s mind when he had her executed.” “Do you believe the queen was innocent?” “I believe the queen had no other choice in her mind than to keep things from Henry. Unlike that queen, however, I didn’t have people plotting to get my head lopped off.” He smirked. “This is a sad story. Does it also have a sad ending? I mean, for you and your husband that you haven’t seen for months?” “Not necessarily.” I took a sip of my martini. “I don’t know about my husband, but like Anne being stuck up in that tower, I sort of went through my own darkness when I learned how very wrong I was to my husband. I wanted to continue to hate everyone and everything for it all going to hell, but it took losing my husband to gain my knowledge that he’d been right about a lot of things. I was just too blind to see it.” Jim’s face grew serious. “I believe this is the part where you can no longer compare yourself to Anne Boleyn and the mad king who had her killed.” “No?” I said, curious and smiling at him. “Well, perhaps your husband was mad like that king, dealing with his own shit, but he got the hell over it, and it took him seeing his beautiful wife again to help him realize he had to have her back in his life. The mad king never changed.” He smirked. “This is where your story should have a better ending, I would assume.” I felt my heart beating as it always had when I was at a loss for words with Jim, this beautiful face, and his mesmerizing eyes. “I would hope that, since I still have my head, it does end happily.” His forehead creased while he laughed. “I’ve missed the hell out of you. I’m not here to ask you to take me back, but I have to have you in my life again.” “If you’re not here to ask me back into your life, sir,” I reached for his hand that held his bourbon, and he turned his hand up to hold mine, “then why in the hell are you here?” Jim pulled me gently against him. “Jesus, I don’t know where to start, but I think I need to start by telling you that I am so sorry. Whether or not you can ever forgive me for the things I’ve done and said, I want you to know that I love you, Avery.” I framed his face with my hands, gently kissed his soft lips, and I smiled into his searching eyes. “I forgave you a long time ago, and more than that, I forgave myself for everything that caused me to hurt you.” “You have no idea how happy it makes me to hear you say that,” he softly said. “I am just at a loss for words. You look more beautiful than ever.” “If it helps you find some words, I’ll say this: I never stopped loving you. Ever.” *Together forever *Jim All I knew is that Avery, Addy, and I needed each other. They were my family. I had my life now—and it was finally complete. This was my final step in living the life I’d promised myself I would have after letting that demon of my past rule it for far too long. Those demons were gone, and they were replaced with my two beautiful souls of saving grace. *5 months later Avery Jim helped me to revamp and expand a women’s shelter and support center in Los Angeles. *Proposal in England on Jim’s property where his castle is. (Addy too) “But being here now is different. I had to sort out so many things to be able to appreciate the woman who had stolen my heart in a way no other woman could,” he said. “Perhaps we had to go through the fire in order to purify our love for each other?” I grinned, “That’s one way of putting it.” Jim’s solemn expression didn’t waver, “Avery Gilbert, you have fascinated me from the first moment I laid eyes on you, and you have changed my life in ways I didn’t know possible. I love you so deeply, and even more so than the first moment that I knew I wanted you in my life forever.” I reached for my throat, almost about to choke on the lump that was suddenly there. Was he really doing this? “You bring me peace that I can’t explain. You breathed life into me from the moment you sat next to me on that plane. You’ve given me everything and asked for nothing except for my love,” he said. “Before you, I was on autopilot, going through the motions of life but never truly living it. I can’t go on another day without you understanding that you and Addy are the best part of my life, the part of my life that was missing. I humbly ask you to trust me and know that I will always love and protect you, and I promise to devote my life wholly to you and Addy above all things. Will you please bestow upon me the highest honor I’ll ever achieve by becoming my wife?” “Oh, God,” I said, tears pooling in my eyes. “Oh, my God.” He pulled out a blue box and opened it. “If you’ll have me, then I hope you’ll enjoy this ring, one that I believe a king from long ago would’ve given the queen he loved so dearly.” “Without sending her to that tower, of course?” I laughed, cried, and then hugged him so tightly that I couldn’t speak. “I think we both served our time in that tower when we were apart for far too long,” he said as I felt him laugh, and then I pulled back to lose myself in his shimmering eyes. “Yes, of course, yes,” I said as Jim brushed the tears from my cheeks. “But are you sure? Marriage might make—” “What? Might make me the happiest and most complete man on the planet?” Jim said and then silenced me with a small kiss. “I love you, Avery. There’s no doubt in my mind.” I watched as Jim turned and knelt as he had the first time he’d met Addy, bringing himself to her level. Addy was smiling, but I could tell she was confused. “You are my best girl and the one I have the most fun with,” he brushed his finger over her nose. “I can’t marry your mom unless I ask something pretty big of you as well.” “How big?” Addy said. “Huge.” His eyes widened as he dramatized his answer. “Remember that one morning when you and I made green eggs and ham?” “Yes,” she crinkled up her nose and laughed. He took her hands into his, “Do you remember what you told me you wished for me to be for you that morning?” Her lips twisted in thought, and my ugly cry was in full effect. Was Jim asking Addy for her approval too? “For you to be my real daddy,” she said. “When I say my prayers at night, I always ask for it to come true one day. Do you think it can?” “I think it can.” Jim smiled. “In fact, that was the huge question I was going to ask. I wanted to know if you would still like me to be your daddy.” Addy’s reaction was priceless as she hugged Jim, and then I heard her crying. I walked over to where Jim had her swallowed her up in his arms. “Addison,” I said, rubbing her back. She looked at me through teary eyes and smiled, my own tears streaming down my face as I wiped hers away. “These are happy tears, yes?” I asked her. “Jim loves us both so much,” she informed me, hugging me tightly. “We can finally be a real family now. He asked, and we have to say yes, mommy. He’s the best daddy ever.” “He certainly is,” I said to her, then looked at Jim as he smiled brilliantly. “I have something special for you too, Addy,” he said, pulling out another blue box. “It’s a charm on a necklace. Its symbol means that I’ll be your daddy forever. I’ll always protect you, care for you, and love you more than you can ever know.” “Oh, my goodness,” she smiled at Jim. “Can I wear it forever too?” Jim grinned. “I truly hope you do,” he said, putting the necklace on her and smiling. “Forever.”“Yes, and now you’ll always know that I’ll love you as my very own daughter for all of our forevers together. I’m just not sure if you said yes or not?” I watched Jim’s forehead crinkle in humor. “Yes! Forever you, me, and mommy.” She hugged him again. *More “I want the good times, the hard times, and the until death do we part times. I want you, and that’s all that matters.” “God, I love you more than words, gorgeous,” he said. “I’m inclined to fulfill a wedding night wish out here and right now.” “Anybody around?” “If they were,” he smirked as we lay back on the grass, “I think we’d scare them off.” “Then hurry up and kiss me.” I laughed, and that’s when Jim and I took advantage of the gang taking off so we could celebrate this event alone.

I’m listening to Mr. Mitchell by Raylin Marks, narrated by Sarah Puckett, Aiden Snow on my Audible app. Try Audible and get it here: https://www.audible.com/pd?asin=17052.... Such a sexy and fun romance between a gorgeous billionaire CEO. They met on a plane to London and they share a romantic week. When they separate and return to their lives the both regret not sharing numbers. Then they meet again and finally they pick up where they left off. Except not everything goes as planned. There are complications from her past. I loved this book and Audible has it free with my plan. And Aiden Snow has a sexy deep voice 🔥🔥🔥 I was not too crazy over the female narrator, she had no passion or character in her voice narrating.
I’m not a fan of this story. It’s really freaking boring and slow. I liked Jim, even though I think the name is stupid for this character. Anyway….
Jim (billionaire, brother to Dr Jake, oral sex phobia) meets Avery (twat, single mom, former drug addict) on a plane to London (I think). Avery is poor but her sister is apparently rich. So they form a little friendship on the plane but then go their separate ways. Just so happens they meet again by chance at a restaurant. Jim offers to take her back to his English manor for a week. Of course she accepts. Who wouldn’t?? So they spend several days of nothing. He’s always on his phone with work. Avery is a royal b*tch. I didn’t like anything about her. Of course they start having sex. I thought it was just ok. Nothing that was fireworks worthy. At the end of the week, she overhears him telling his brother that she’s just a fling. Well I mean they’ve only known each other for a week, so….. Then she takes off. Just so happens they get back to Cali and he goes back to work. She starts a job in his building. They meet up and take forever to reconnect. Avery is battling her baby daddy who happens to be a drug addict. Drama happens, the story follows the paint-by-numbers after that. One thing – they brought that stalker from the last book back, but then didn’t proceed with that storyline. Why bring her back at all if she isn’t going to cause any drama? There really wasn’t any fun drama at all.
This story is way to freaking long and that’s my biggest issue. They put Every. Single. Detail. In this damn book. He had to give a speech at a conference and they printed every word of it. As a reader I DON’T CARE ABOUT THAT SH*T. I think this is where the author gets paid for every word in the book so she filled it with boring crap. So the combination of too long, mediocre sex, sucky FMC, and a kid was just way too much for me. If you know me, you know I hate kids in romance books. It’s exhausting and they’re always interrupting sex scenes. Plus, since I listen to audiobooks, the kids voices always grate on my nerves.
I know I made a general comment recently that I was tired of author’s not letting FMCs cuss. I screwed myself with that comment because Avery cusses about EVERTYHING. She cusses people out left and right. It was way OTT. One thing I did appreciate in this book is when he wanted to buy her a new car (because of course he did), she didn’t throw a fit. She actually accepted it. We usually have to listen to the same crap that happens with every billionaire fic where the FMC fights and “doesn’t want charity”. This ho took that car like a champ!!
POTENTIAL SPOILERS AHEAD
I’ve slept since I finished this book and I can’t remember what I was going to say. Oh… this fool actually said, “you’re playing chess and I’m playing checkers.” I nearly died. I don’t know if you ever watched reality TV but that line is used ALL THE TIME in Big Brother. It’s hilarious.
Well, Imma get straight to the point. Am I the only one that thinks Avery is a bitch? Think about the scene where Jim learned about her past, he was so right to be pissed at her and feel disrespected and lied to. He gave her so many chances to say the reasons she didn't do shit for the custody thing. And let's be real, Jim was so damn nice and gentle and thoughtful that he gave no reason to her not to trust him and tell him the truth. It wasn't like she was afraid of him leaving her ffs. UNBELIEVABLE. Fast forward to the end where they meet again and she has done stuff after finally realizing she had issues to solve and he was told he had problems too and should see a therapist, which yeah fine he had problems but I feel like they made them look so much worse than hers, (which in my opinion they weren't) and when they met he was all like, I'm asking you to take me back and forgive me for what I've said or whatever when she should be sorry and apologize for being blind. That was so wrong. I don't know, I don't like her. Also I 've read some reviews that say the characters didn't develop. The fact that Avery did take actions about her life and her child's life I think is step forward for character development (that she realized that things were wrong and didnt just listen to someone else). I just didn't like how the book told us that they both were wrong but he was more?? so he begged for forgiveness ????? when she should go back to him and be like, you were right..fucking thank you for seeing what I couldn't and for it taking me so long. PFFFFT PATHETIC.
ANYWAY, I'm all pissed now and maybe I'm exaggerating.

Jim, CEO of Worldwide Corp. meets Avery on pelane to London. Avery is in an argument with her drug addicted ex. Jim offers her help with the call. They met again in London where he asked her if she would like to go to his country estate. They met again back home in the states and started dating. Avery has to protect her daughter from her ex and fight thru that humiliation. Jim has to fight with his own demons of a drug addicted mom who died from OD. This story was hard to read bc I really had a hard time with the female character. She is loud, obnoxious, and cussed like a sailor. No feminine qualities talked about or dreamed of. Even when dressed up like a princess, the author portrays very little of the female underneath. Jim is a wimp to me as portrayed. Nothing sexy except his looks portrayed and his money that bought what the book could not give him.
Very dry, just like the one before. There isn’t anything bad, but there wasn’t anything good either. It was just plain. I hated how confrontational the h was when she crossed paths with every antagonist before they had a chance to irritate her, like she was some badass but would roll over for her sorry excuse for an ex so easily, the excuse was so lame. And how stupid her reasoning was when she didn’t want to ‘spoil’ her daughter but then spoils her anyway at the end of the book. There was so much disconnect and no chemistry or heartache with the characters. I forgot how simple Dr. Mitchell was and held the same issues for me. I won’t purchase the next book.
It's hard to give you specific reasons. The match was awkward. I didn't really route for them. Strange interactions when they were in public in London that were not funny but gringeworthy. Her sister drops out of the book mid way through never to be heard from again. The panic attacks were random and again out of place. I don't know. It took me forever to finish the book because i wasn't enjoying it. I wouldn't recommend.
I was immediately put off from the very beginning-the heroine knows and says a lot of bad words, same with the hero. Also, the writing was not my style. It was cringe-not-worthy. Also, I thought it was written by a an amateur. Just nope.
DNF Did not like the chemistry, WAY too much cussing and the writing is alot of telling us and not allowing us to feel! It wasn't bad but I was board.....time to move on.

Enjoyed the story, even though I have NO idea what it's like to live a billionaire lifestyle. Those parts were fun. Some tough issues to deal with but the author handled them well. These two have much to work thru - both of them - and the little girl is just adorbs.
Audio - ugh. Disappointed as book 1 was so much better.
I didn’t bond with either character here. I won’t say it was boring but it didn’t excite me. I may try the next in the series when I need another Audio to get through.
Sweet, spicy read. I loved it❤️ In my opinion Mr Mitchell is John F Kennedy Jr. Beautiful soul, lovely man with Avery's baby girl. Love the family they became.🤗
"If you'll have me, then I hope you'll enjoy this ring. One that I believe a king from long ago would've given to a queen he loved so dearly" ⋆ ♡̷ .゚𓂃⋆。
4.5 stars
OMG OMFJDKSKSKS I LOVEDD THISSS. A ROLLERCOASTER OF EMOTIONS, TRULY. LOVED 🩷🩷
I loved the realness of this book. If you know anyone who has addiction issues and how it affects everyone in their life. This book is about fear, pain and healing. I appreciate the author going through these deep issues with the realness behind them.
This was such a good story I love learning more about the billionaires club they are so hot and so sweet and caring I can't wait to read the next one .. and the connection the two main characters have is next level
The evils of addiction and those who are enablers to keep the sickness going is at the core of this book. It’s well told with lots of delightful characters. There is also lots of gratuitous sex but after all that’s the genre.
I liked this story better than the first of the series. It had a bit more emotion to the characters. They had more going on, due to the nature of the plot. And even though there was a bit of a lag in the middle where it dragged a bit, the end was really good to the point that I bumped it up to a four stars instead of a three. We did have custody issues, which is my very least favorite thing in stories ever. Like, I get thoroughly annoyed every time I read a story that has one. Then, I usually get anxious the whole time because I don't want the kid to go to the evil parent, and I can never enjoy the book. So, yeah. There was a bit of that, except this parent was more of an abusive, drug addict. The author did surprise me at the end on that particular character, though.
Anyhow, I think I will continue with the series. It's been okay, but I'm still looking for that wow book. Not yet, but maybe...
Mr. Mitchell by Raylin Marks is book 2 in the Billionaires' Club Series. This is the story of Jim Mitchell and Avery Gilbert. I have read the previous book which did add to my enjoyment of this one but I do feel it can be a standalone book if you wish to do so. Jim is the brother to Jake who we did meet and get his story in the first book, so I was happy waiting for this book. Jim and Avery meet and have their hot encounter but not thinking to be anymore then when they get back to their actually lives we find that Avery will be working at Mitchell and Associates. So now they are back in each other lives working their way through their feelings. I enjoyed this author's writing from the start and will be looking for more of her books.
