If you like happy, loving, touching stories that include meddling grandmothers and plenty of animals then I definitely recommend “The Billionaire’s Big Game.” I really enjoyed this book by Breezie Bennett. I think each of her books seem better than the last one. This story about Zoe, a single mom, who gets set up by her grandmother with Noah, owner of a Florida football team, made me laugh out loud as well as gave me goose bumps at the end. Excellent read.

Truly on the fence
This was a good book. It wasn't great and it wasn't awful. Which is why I am on the fence. The family wasn't exactly a typical billionaire family, or at they tried not to be. But I wasn't really wowed by anything. The animals were cute and so was Ava, but I'm not sure if that is enough to read the next book.

Totally different than her South Florida Riders series, this new series by Breezie Bennett is off to a great start. Hot billionaires, cute kids, and lots of amazing rescue pets. What's not to love?

This is the first book in Bennett’s Miami Vice’s series a spinoff of her South Florida Riders series. Where the South Florida Riders series featured the team’s players and their loves this series features the billionaire male siblings of the Vice family that owns the fictional NFL team. The only female sibling Ellie the youngest Vice was featured in the final book of the South Florida Riders, Sweet Ride, where a one-night hook up with Matt the team’s back-up (and soon to be starting) quarterback results in a pregnancy and them falling in love. That book allowed us to become familiar with Ellie’s parents and her older brothers the subjects of this series. Breezie’s writing style is as light and easy as her pen name. They’re short, fun, sexy and contain the minimum amount of angst the genre requires. Perfect reads for a day on a South Florida beach. If you’re old enough to remember the old eighties television show Miami Vice starring Don Johnson who launched the whole 5 o’clock shadow look, (and is the father of Dakota Johnson star of the 50 Shades movie trilogy) the books are just about as campy. Because like their titles Breezie makes no pretense of writing the next great American novel, just fun, light, sexy romances.
This book features Noah Vice the youngest male of the family who is the acting owner of the football team and Zoe Taylor a single mom, eighth grade English teacher. Unlike his older brother Jayson who seems stuck in perpetual adolescence with all his brains in his southern head, Noah seems like a good guy. He loves his job running the team but is exhausted by all of its demands on his time. When brother Jayson encourages him to go out on a Friday night and get laid to blow off some stress (because apparently meaningless sex and gambling are Jayson’s go to solutions to everything) Noah meets a gorgeous blonde and her two friends attempting to get past security to enter the exclusive rooftop Atlantic Club featured in all the South Florida Riders books as the main drinking and hook-up establishment for the young and wealthy of South Beach. Noah eyes the pretty blonde’s beautiful face and banging body in a tight figure hugging dress (hey I said he was a good guy not a saint) and decides he’s found his stress reliever for the night. He tells the security they’re with him and accompanies them on the elevator ride up to the club. Zoe like Noah is out with her girlfriends to blow off some steam on a girls night out. But unlike Noah she’s not looking for a hook-up. In fact after a failed relationship with her now four year old daughter Ava’s father Eddie, she’s very certain about what she does and doesn’t want in a man. Zoe is only interested in men who are ready to settle down marry and become a husband and father to her daughter. Although Noah knows nothing about Zoe being a mom he realizes after one drink with her that she’s not a one-night stand kind of girl. Still he finds himself so attracted to Zoe he gets her to give him her phone number before he lets her rejoin her friends. But when he calls her the next day she doesn’t take his call because she knows Noah isn’t the kind of guy looking for anything other than a good time. Fast forward six months and Noah finds himself entered in a charity bachelor auction for an animal refuge at the behest of his mother. One of the winners gets five blind dates with Noah. Who do you think is somehow going to win tis auction? And here are examples of why I consider Breezie Bennett a guilty pleasure. Supposedly the theme of the auction is five blind dates with a handsome bachelor. But if you know going in whom you’re going on a date with is it really a blind date? And even if you want to consider the first date a blind date, how do you call the four subsequent dates with the same person blind dates? I thought the way Bennett flipped Zoe’s and Noah’s positions on what they were looking for was really clever. I loved Zoe’s grandma and Ava was adorable. I mean how to you not love a romance with scheming old ladies playing cupid and adorable children and pets? While I saw the final stumbling block in their relationship coming from early on I like the way the author handled it by not dragging the resolution out forever. Unless I missed it I find it odd that Zoe’s parents were never mentioned in this story other than that they lived in Pennsylvania. I also thought her girlfriends would have had a bigger role but disappeared completely after Noah confessed his feelings for Zoe. I do wonder if a certain feisty redhead isn’t going to be the one to tame brother Jayson in the next book? Honestly I enjoyed this book more than I thought I would which is why I’m giving it 4 stars.

A Good-Time Guy Becomes a Family Man...
...and it's a fun read! Breezie Bennett changes up her romance level from closed door to front-row seat and does it seamlessly in The Billionaire's Big Game, book 1 of her Miami Vices trilogy, covering three insanely rich brothers in the Vice family, which owns hotels and sports teams in South Florida. Big Game features youngest brother Noah, an executive of Miami's NFL franchise. His older brother and incurable player, Jayson, convinces him that he's been working so hard he needs to meet a hot woman, have a one-night stand, and blow off some steam. Noah agrees and heads to the rooftop club at one of his family's hotels, where he meets Zoe Taylor and her two friends. Zoe hasn't been out for a girls' night in years, and while they're attracted to each other, she can tell he's interested only in sex, and she tells him she won't give a chance to any man who's not ready to be a husband and father right away. So they're doomed from the start.
At a charity bachelor auction two weeks later, Noah (who let his mother talk him into putting himself up for bids) finds out that his highest bidder is an elderly lady who bid for him on behalf of her granddaughter---Zoe! Because the charity is an animal rescue, the auction winners and their bachelors must complete five animal- related "dates": walk dogs together; foster a kitten for a weekend; and so on, all designed to have couples share activities that benefit the animals at the shelter. Zoe and Noah both go into it thinking they'll say goodbye after the fifth date, when he can go back to looking for short-term sex goddesses and she can search for husband material. Zoe's Gram, however, has other ideas.
Sneaky Gram is "accidentally" late picking up Ava, Zoe's five-year-old daughter, so Ava meets Noah and ropes him into date number 2, baking dog biscuits. Neither of them are kitchen prodigies, but they share a sense of humor, so the floor gets covered in flour and laughter. Zoe begins to see under Noah's polished exterior and likes his compassion for and fun with Ava. Does he feel the same about her?
Date number 3 involves fostering a cat together over a weekend, and Noah has secured a tiny kitten they name Pikachu in honor of Ava's Pokemon obsession. During the course of the first night, as Noah and Zoe become more physically intense (for the reader's entertainment and/or education), resourceful Pikachu opens the guest room door, opens the door to the room where Noah keeps the two dogs he adopted after they walked them---a pit bull and a chihuahua who are inseparable--and leads a pet parade into the living room (where the dogs collapse together in a heap on Noah's sofa) before climbing his floor-to-ceiling drapes and mewing cutely from the top of his extremely high cabinet top. Noah has to boost Zoe onto his shoulders so she can reach him...not the kind of touching they (or the reader) thought was in store! To top everything off, That Darn Cat flushes the toilet---twice---during the worst possible time for them. They still manage to, ahem, enjoy themselves and each other.
Date number 5 is throwing an event at the rescue, and Zoe and Noah choose to throw a birthday party for Zoe's Gram, who takes credit for getting them together. An unexpected guest threatens to ruin all they've built with Ava as a family, but things turn out in a way nobody suspects, and the HEA occurs as it must. Zoe, Noah, Peach the pittie, Mr. Buttons the chihuahua, Pikachu the amazing super-kitten, Ava, and new family member Mirabelle, the GOAT goat (as Ava calls her) all end up in as entwined a ball as Peach and Mr. Buttons were before the rescue "loaned" them to Noah for his first date with Ava!
This book examines the ways in which apparently different things or people, such as a huge pit bull and small chihuahua or a man looking for a good time and a woman looking for a potential husband, can end up together for the long haul. It's the story of discovering that what you think you don't want is really what you wanted all along. It's also a sideways look at what can happen when a grown man lets his mother talk him into doing something awkward for charity!
The characters are realistic, though I wouldn't want my eighth grade students to hear some of Zoe's vocabulary or see her R-rated activities with Noah...and I don't know how he can take so much time off for the "dates" he's required to do by the gala organizers, though he might be allowed by the chief organizer---his mom! The real stars of the book are the two dogs, one cat, and one goat who keep their people in line! If you can handle the occasional sex scene and profanity, you'll love The Billionaire's Big Game. Highly recommended.

Breezie Bennett has done it again! I absolutely LOVED The Billionaire’s Big Game, the first story in her new Miami Vice series. It was an incredible story and each story and I loved reading every moment on every page and could not put it down. Breezie Bennett definitely did not disappoint with The Billionaire’s Big Game and has once again delivered an incredible story filled with everything that I love about her books. She has once again provided her readers with the amazing characters, that I have come to love and expect in her books, they feel like family! Once again Breezie Bennett has shown with The Billionaire’s Big Game that she is a master storyteller, proving that she continues to be a force to be reckoned with in romantic comedy genre. I love all the lighter moments where I found myself smiling and laughing during this wonderful story. I love all the insight into the various parts of Vice Hospitality that the Vice brothers are responsible for that Breezie includes in the story. Who doesn't love hot sexy men, strong females, loving families and friends, who always support one another, they are all such wonderful characters? I love how Breezie Bennett somehow, she manages to find the "perfect" heroine, who is a strong woman on her own, to balance out the billionaire Vice brother. Once more her characters in The Billionaire’s Big Game are so believable and charming, they share great chemistry, lots of laughs, and steamy romance. The Billionaire’s Big Game delivers all those things that I love most about romantic comedies. I love that Breezie Bennett writes in the first person from the perspective of the two main characters, and continues to use vocabulary that remain true to her characters. I enjoy getting to see things from the viewpoints of both of the main characters. The Billionaire’s Big Game is filled with all those things that I have come to love and expect in a Breezie Bennett romantic comedy, especially the lighter and the bittersweet moments that filled this page turner. The Billionaire’s Big Game is the story of Noah Vice, youngest Vice son and acting owner of the South Florida Riders, and Zoe Taylor, eighth grade English teacher and single Zoe. Who does not love an opposites attract love story? Noah and Zoe meet one Friday night when Zoe and her friends Lyla and Grace are trying to get into The Atlantic bar. Zoe and Noah connect, but Zoe does not believe that Noah can be the husband and that she is committed to find. Zoe ghosts Noah and does not respond to any of his texts. Six month later, Trina enters Noah into a bachelor auction for her local animal refuge charity, and Zoe’s great-grandmother Madge wins the dates with Noah for Zoe. Zoe explains why she ghosted hm. They agree to go on the five dates together over margaritas. Things heat up quickly between Noah and Zoe after the first date and as they spend more time together. After meeting and spending time with Zoe’s daughter, Ava, Noah tries to slow things down between the two of them, but as they continue to spend more time together on their “dates”, things change between them, secrets are shared and animals are adopted. I love Noah and Zoe’s love story, and how the plot twist changes things between them and shows Noah’s vulnerable side. I love the characters and the family dynamic in The Billionaire’s Big Game, the characters feel like family and friends. I enjoy all the interactions among the Vice siblings, it feels like real family love and makes me laugh at their teasing. The Billionaire’s Big Game is filled with all those things that I have come to long and expect from Breezie Bennett, incredible characters, amazing story, light, poignant and bittersweet moments, and surprise plot twists. She did not disappoint in her delivery of those things. I love how she resolved the surprise plot twist; it was truly a heartwarming moment. My favorite line in the story was the simplest of lines that Ava said to Noah. My favorite part of the book was the epilogue, I truly love how it went above and beyond the happily ever after. I could not put the book down; I loved every moment. I am so looking forward to reading the other books in the series. It was an amazing story and I highly recommend it.

The Billionaire's Big Game ( The Miami Vices 1)
****** Spoiler Alert ******
This is the first in this series by Breezie Bennett. And it is the sixth time I am reading this author’s work.
The reading is light and fun to read. A quick read (but not a novella). The parts that make it the most fun are the characters. In this case the major characters are:
Zoe- Zoe is sweet as the day is long. She is beautiful as can be with blonde hair and big eyes. She is a middle school English teacher that really cares about her kids. She takes them outside for units on Nature. She doesn’t believe in being stuck inside all day. She is a total need because she not only has watched each Star Wars many times but she has a lot of collection memorabilia. Her other great love is gaming. That is when she is not taking care of her 4 year old daughter, Ava, the love of her life. Her Grams, GG, is her main support team and she is getting ready to turn 88.
The other main character is Noah. He is a workaholic. He loves what he does for the stadium and the team but he does feel like something is missing
The story is filled with Noah who at the beginning only is interested in a one night stand. Zoe at the beginning, was honest about only wanting a husband not a One Night Stand. He thought she was absolutely beautiful and he wanted to go out with her. He tried calling for months but he was ghosted.
Then Noah’s Mom’s Charity auction comes up and his name was volunteered. It is multiple dates all centered around the pet refuge. After their first walk with 2 dogs- one big (Peaches), one very small (Mr. Buttons). Sweet animals cannot be separated. On the walk, Peaches dragged Zoe completely through the mud. She went back to Noah’s house to shower. This is where things got heated than passionate and erotic as the night went on. At the next event, her Grams sneakily didn’t pick up Ava. It forced him to get to know Ava. They had fun making dog treats. He also left, right away because he was afraid of getting close. He told Zoe that at the picnic. But then his mind swirled. He decided to adopt the dogs. There next visit was was watching a tiny kitten for the weekend. He realizes how much he not only wants her but how special she is. More intimate and erotic time followed. Until her Grams called and needed to drop Ava off.
How is Noah feeling after being intimate and having a child dropped in? How is Zoe feeling towards Noah? Fast forward to the party they planned at the refuge that coincided with her Grams birthday. Zoe and Noah’ s life is perfect. Ava loves Noah. Everything is wonderful but something happens to destroy it all.
Will Zoe and Noah be able to make it after what hits them? And exactly how many animals is Noah going to Adopt?
What happens after this? It is definitely worth it to Read the Whole story because the ending is unexpected.

Noah and Zoe’s love story in The Billionaire’s Big Game by Breezie Bennett, book one in her Miami Vices series, is a wonderful, sizzling, emotional and enjoyable tale that definitely seals the deal. An unforgettable meet up in a high end bar, Zoe Taylor knows that Noah Vice is only looking for a hook-up or fling, which is not what she wants. After getting his number, she avoids him; not responding to any of his texts. Fast forward six months to when Noah has been wrangled by his mom to participate in one of her crazy fundraisers; this time a bachelor auction to benefit an animal shelter. Noah never expected the drop-dead, beautiful girl who ghosted him to be gifted him by his highest bidder; her grandmother. Noah finally has the chance to get to know Zoe, figure out what she’s hiding and why she isn’t interested in a fling. Zoe believes the last thing she needs is a casual fling with a hot billionaire. Between her four-year old daughter, Ava, and her classroom of eighth graders she is only looking for a lifelong partner. After Noah meets Zoe’s adorable daughter, Ava, he realizes this is not a game he should be playing; but he sure enjoyed the time he spent with these two ladies. Noah and Zoe have five dates to get through, five unforgettable dates. Zoe knows he not marriage material, but she finds herself unable to resist having a little fun with him. As the dates commence, Noah and Zoe find themselves sharing a magnetic attraction and sizzling chemistry that has them wanting to burn up the sheets. Noah is finding himself no longer fearing commitment, hoping that he can convince Zoe that he is all in, wanting to create a family together.
Ms. Bennett wrote a fun, flirty, sizzling romance that should not be missed. She provided a tale rich with emotions, sizzling chemistry, humor, wonderful dialogue, and endearing characters giving Noah, Zoe and Ava a chance to be a loving family. I highly recommend The Billionaire’s Big Game to other readers and look forward to the next book in this series.

Breezie Bennett once again delivers with a book I couldn't put down in The Billionaire's Big Game. I adored Noah and Zoe from the moment they each appeared on the page! Serious sparks from the moment they met each other, and it only got better from there.
Noah Vice is one of the billionaire Miami Vices, and is pretty much all work and no play since his family bought the South Florida Riders football team, as Noah has been put in charge of everything. Noah has no desire to be in a relationship, and doesn't really have time for one. Zoe Taylor is a middle school teacher and single mom who is only willing to date someone who is as ready as she is for a relationship, as in marriage. I loved they first met when Noah was taking time for himself and Zoe and her friends were out for a GNO. They had an instant connection, and fabulous chemistry from the very first moment. However, as they both wanted different things in life, it would take a bachelor auction and Zoe's hilarious grandmother to set the wheels in motion for romance.
Zoe and Noah gave me all the feels from the very beginning of this story. As they were in different places in their lives when they first met, it was so much fun to watch their friendship blossom into romance the more time they spent together. I loved Zoe and Noah had chemistry from the beginning, yet Noah respected Zoe's friends only dictate when they first started spending time together. Once Zoe's daughter Ava hit the page, I totally and completely fell in love with this little family. There was so much love and humor, I seriously couldn't stop reading! I promise for lovers of super sexy romances, you won't be disappointed, as Zoe and Noah have lots of sexy times....smoking hot sexy times!
I've loved Breezie Bennett's book from the moment I read her very first story. She gives her readers emotional and beautiful romance in each new story. Ms. Bennett also weaves in humor so well in each of her stories, I sometimes find myself crying from laughing so hard. I love when an author tugs at so many of my emotions, and Breezie Bennett does so in each and every story. I adored every single moment of The Billionaire's Big Game and am already counting down to the next book in the series!

Breezie Bennett is quickly becoming one of my favorite new contemporary romance authors. Her fully-developed characters, intriguing storylines, impeccable comedic timing, steamy passion, and heart-tugging happy endings have me eager to return for each new book she publishes.
The Billionaire's Big Game launches her new The Miami Vices series with another page turner that kept me gleefully reading late into the night. I really enjoyed Noah and Zoe together. Both are likeable characters that seem totally wrong for one another when they first meet. At different places in their lives, it just isn't meant to be. But...six months later, and with the help of a lovingly meddling grandmother, they just might have a chance. Their chemistry is off the charts but Bennett skillfully gives them a slow-burn romance that allows them the time to develop bonds of friendship before sending them into deeper emotional waters. Their five, animal-centric auction dates are an absolute delight that give them the time and space needed to really start to get to know one another without the pressure of actual romantic dates. And the unexpected results of those dates for Noah begin to change his perspective on life in a big way.
While Noah and Zoe are the primary focus of the book, Bennett gives ample page time to Zoe's adorable four-year-old daughter as well as a few rescue animals with an abundance of love to share. They all enhance Zoe and Noah's love story with their heart-stealing antics and captured mine along the way.
While The Billionaire's Big Game is loosely tied to Bennett's South Florida Riders series (Noah's sister, Ellie is the heroine of book six, Sweet Ride and Noah runs the Riders football team for his family), this first book in Bennett's new series is a great place to begin for readers new to her stories. It has my enthusiastic recommendation.

After a successful debut with the South Florida Riders series, Breezie Bennett returns to the Miami, FL scene with The Billionaire’s Big Game (Miami Vices Book 1) Workaholic Noah Vice is feeling restless and a trip to The Atlantic was what his fun loving brother recommended. Teacher and single mother Zoe Taylor is out in her first girl night out when they met at the entrance of the hot club. Their attraction is instant but they are looking for different things; Noah just want a fling, Zoe is interested in husband potential candidates but those minor details do not ruin a good night and even when Noah share his personal number with Zoe, she decides to not contact him.
Fast forward six months and Noah continues with his all work routine, only that he has been recruited by his mother for an Animal Shelter Charity Auction where eligible bachelors will be auctioned for the grand prize of 5 animal- theme dates. Noah carry the night but the winner of said action is a sweet octogenarian who later confess that she wanted her grandchild to be his date. Yep, you guess it…Zoe and Noah are reunited in the cutest way and this time around their relationship grows steady in seriousness and in hotness. The 5 dates are a blast and Noah gets to know Zoe’s daughter Ava and it is difficult to know who likes the other more. Breezie creates a real, sexy romance, that also includes serious issues and hilarious highlights with a menagerie of animals that need fostering or find their forever homes. During the story we get glimpses of the other Vices and maybe a cameo from a Rider as a throw back to where it all begun.
I really like the start of this new series, Miami Vices and I’m looking forward to learn more about them and always in the look out for more updates in the lives of the South Florida Riders family. ☆☆☆☆ 1/2 stars.

What a perfect book to start out this series, The Miami Vices. I really enjoyed getting a glimpse of the Vice family in Sweet Ride, but we really get to know more about them in this book. We first get to meet Noah Vice and Zoe Taylor, both out on a Friday night to have some fun. They have a drink, flirt, and she gives him her phone number and they go their separate ways. He is definitely interested and wants to see her again, but she has a daughter and wants more than one night, so she does not respond when he texts her. Interesting how fate plays into things, six months later they see each other again and Zoe’s grandmother (GG) has attended a bachelor auction and is the winning bidder, when Noah meets GG, he gets the news that she isn’t his date, but her granddaughter is and who shows up shortly after, Zoe. I really liked this story and really enjoyed getting to know Noah and Zoe and of course Ava and Zoe’s friends and the Vice family. The five dates were fun to be part of and see what might happen especially with two people that wanted different things in life and of course the animals were such a huge part of this story as well, my favorite is Pikachu the kitten. I always had a feeling that Zoe’s ex would make an appearance and I was pleasantly surprised with the outcome of that situation. A really great story and the ending was awesome. I loved the South Florida Riders series, but I have to say that The Miami Vices has become my new favorite. It looks like Jayson Vice is next and cannot wait to see what happens with him.

*I received an arc from the author for an honest review.” Breezie Bennett has the start of another amazing series!! The Miami Vices series starts with Noah Vice & Zoe Taylor. Noah & Zoe meet one night & he asks her out but she blows him off. Her grandmother then bids on him for her in a bachelor’s auction run by his mother. I totally loved that the auction benefited the local animal shelter & that their required five dates revolved around the animals (having two adopted dogs myself). We meet two adorable dogs Peach & Mr. Buttons on the first date, Pikachu the kitten on another date & Mirabelle the goat. As much as Noah & Zoe are attracted to each other, he’s not looking for a commitment whereas Zoe is as she has 4 year old daughter Ava & doesn’t do casual. They have their five dates & Zoe knows she wants a permanent relationship with him while he’s struggling to figure out what he really wants (with hilarious advice from his family). This book is funny, sweet, entertaining, emotional. You won’t want to put the book down! If you love a book with humor, wonderful characters, adorable kids & animals, that keeps your interest from page 1 & a HEA then this amazing book is for you!! I’m so looking forward to the next one!!
It was also great catching up with Ellie (Noah’s sister) & Matt from the South Florida Rider series.

I thoroughly enjoyed the newest Breezie Bennett book, The Billionaire’s Big Game. One of the many reasons I enjoyed this book so much was because our hero, Noah Vice doesn’t truly run from his feelings. There might be a minor freak out moment in general but when he realizes his true feelings for Zoe are on the same tracks as what Zoe wants Noah then goes after his treasure. But, can Noah convince Zoe to take a chance on him? These two do ride the roller coaster of emotions and whether or not to stay or run. There are a few unexpected twists and turns that make the story fun and exciting.
These new characters are fun, sexy, smart, fierce lovers, and really fall hard. I enjoy big family sagas and my true favorite is a billionaire with a hidden heart-of-gold. Noah shows his heart to Zoe pretty quick, helping her see that not all billionaire bachelors are snobby and cocky playboys.
Oh, I forgot to mention one of the cutest little 4 yr old characters I have ever met, Ava (daughter of Zoe). Super cute, smart, and ruthless when it comes to video games especially, Mario Kart. There are so many reasons to grab this book. My favorite is that Noah and Zoe have all the feels, passion, and love for more than just each other. I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review. *****

Engaging, steamy, feel-good story. I loved this book. A very well-written, easy-to-read, page-turner, that is able to hold the reader's attention. The characters are all likeable and very well described, their verbal interactions were scene and character-appropriate with good use of language, vocabulary, wit, and editing. The story of Noah Vice (I liked the reference to Miami Vice, where the story is set) and Zoe, a single mother, with their worlds and pasts as far apart as possible. Yet, there is nothing one can do against the incredible chemistry that draws them closer and closer, despite their respective determination that they are wrong for each other. Well, maybe not wrong, but not what their brain is allowing them to entertain. I will not go into the synopsis, but this book has several ‘aww’ factors because of the glimpses of reality, insecurities, emotions, desires, charity, cute animals, children, darling grandma and love that is able to survive doubt, fear and all previously held assumptions. I strongly recommend this book with a great HEA to all those who need a little positive escape and love steamy and charming romance novels.

Funny, endearing and with enough steam for a good facial, The Billionaire's Big Game is a page turner from beginning to end. A chance meeting, a sweetly meddling grandmother, a menagerie of animals, an adorable four year old combined with one of the most honest and hottest couples to cross the page...and just WOW!
When you think Zoe and Noah are ready to cross the finish line, past and present collide in a near earth shattering way. Delicate subject matter is handled with grace and compassion...and a few tears.
I could NOT put this book down. Then when I finished reading it, I couldn't stop thinking about it! So of course, I read it again! It was great the first time through; greater the second time!
This couple could carry their own series and this book would make an awesome movie.
In truth, I have read many beginning authors. None have hit the ball out of the park consistently from their first book on. Breezie Bennett will exceed your wildest imaginings with her skillful story weaving and compelling story lines.

I’m a fan of this author and have read the preceding series which was a fab, fun series in its own right.
This spin off starts well and introduces the brothers of one of the other series leads as playboy rich types with more money than relationship staying power.
There is just something about Noah though....he talks the talk and walks right into a bar and spots a beautiful woman who might just be Miss Saturday Night, then promptly catches feelings.
One long time ghosting session, a meddling gran, a cutie daughter and a GOAT goat later and we have a fab HEA
I loved how this story spun out and fell for both the characters, even when they promptly (about a third of the way in) changed roles and went from Noah wanting a good time to a relationship and Zoe vice verse.
Well written, fun, hot and engaging.
Looking forward to the next brothers fall from grace.

The Miami Vices are an interesting family with a lot of different personalities that makes them fun to read about. The Billionaire's Big Game would be a great beach read. It's a happy story with plenty of animals to add a magic touch to the falling in love plot. Zoe's name fits her personality perfectly. She is a delightful single mom who thinks she knows exactly what she wants in a relationship. Noah is a hard working young man who doesn't really have time for a relationship....at least no time until he meets Zoe and has to rethink his priorities. Throw in a meddling grandmother with nothing but good intentions and what's not to love about this heartwarming story. With a sweet heroine, her adorable daughter, a meddling grandma, a handsome hero, and a menagerie of cute adoptable animals, this story does not disappoint.

I received an ARC from the author thru Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving my review. The first book of the Miami Vices series is about Noah and Zoe. Fate brings them back together when they are both roped into a charity auction. Five dates together that give them a chance to get to know each other better. Zoe knew from the first time they met that she and Noah were looking for different things. She wanted commitment and had a daughter to consider. Noah thought that he would never find the woman who changed his way of thinking. Now when Zoe decides she can do no strings, he wants to tie her to him. This book is well written with great characters. I am looking forward to reading about the rest of the Vices.

I have been looking forward to Breezie Bennett’s new series and I love her latest book “The Billionaire’s Big Game.” Noah is consumed with work and rarely takes a day off and Zoe is a dedicated teacher and single mom whose life revolved around her daughter. I loved the storyline which centered around a Bachelor Auction to benefit an animal refuge. The winner and her bachelor would go on five dates revolving around animal shelters and pet adoption. I am a big proponent of adopt don’t shop and I was thrilled that Ms. Bennett incorporated that into the story.
I enjoyed following along with Noah and Zoe on their dates while they spent time with the animals and got to know each other. They were both surprised as to how quickly they connected and how much they missed each other when they were apart. I love the closeness Noah has with this family as well as the tight bond Zoe has with her grandmother. Zoe’s infectious personality allowed Noah to finally relax and enjoy life’s little things. Zoe thought she had her future all planned out, but when she met Noah things changed and she found him hard to resist.
Zoe was unsure as to what would happen after their dates were over. Since Noah was an unexpected surprise, she wondered if she should see him again or play it safe and let him go? Noah knew what he wanted and he needed the right plan to win Zoe’s heart.

I can't relate to billionaires, but Breezie Bennett has written about a family that has some humble roots and parents who believe in hard work. This made Noah such a likable character, even when he was on the prowl for a one night stand! Loved his reaction to Zoe, and their second meeting was both hilarious and touching. And even though I believe adults should get to make their own decisions, I loved how Noah put Zoe's needs before his own. Nothing more lovable than a guy who can put his girl first! Very little angst -- Zoe and Noah knew how special their relationship was and they weren't afraid to go after it. The animals were a blast!! And what a great family they each have. Looking forward to the next book in the series!!

A great start to a new series! Loved South Florida Riders series, which was a great lead in to this new series which focuses on the Vice family that are the owners of the team, among their many other ventures. When Noah gets advice from one of his brothers to go the Atlantic bar to pick up someone for a fling he falls for Zoe but realizes quickly she is not the type to do that. Fast forward six months, and their paths cross again, and the mutual attraction is still there. Loved Noah with his conflicting emotions. Loved Zoe with her adorable daughter Ava and her spunky granny, Madge. When they get together sparks fly, and you can’t help but smile with various cast of characters! Can’t wait to read about the next Vice brother!

This book is the first novel of The Miami Vices which is about a group of brothers starting with Noah Vice, a billionaire who is being auctioned off at an animal refuge fundraiser. He is purchased by Zoe Taylor, a single mom with a young daughter, courtesy of her great grandmother. Zoe and Noah had met six months earlier but she decided he was not husband material and ghosted him. In return, Noah is not sure they are right for each other once he finds out about her four year old daughter. However, despite their reservations they find the more they are together the more attracted they are to each other. This well written book is a jewel and I highly recommend it.

I downloaded this by a what turned out to be a happy accident. It's a charming book that I actually read in one sitting...
It is a fun, steamy romance and never veers to any trauma or nastiness with any of the characters.
It's a simple plot and ending is predictable but this did not in any way drop my enjoyment of it. I thoroughly it from start to finish.
Noah on the advice of his older brother goes to a club for one night of no ties fun.. He meets up with a group of friends and starts flirting with Zoe.
She decides to go back to her friends but not before Noah swaps numbers.
Fast forward a few months later to an animal fundraising bachelor auction.....
This story alternates between Noah and Zoe's point of view.
I shall definitely be keeping an eye out for more books from this author.

I enjoyed this book. It had a good story with believable characters. I really wanted to rate it higher and would have, except for the the foul language. It made me cringe the many times that it was used, especially GD. I was disappointed that an English teacher who taught impressionable eighth graders and had a young daughter wouldn't have a classier vocabulary. They may have tried to watch language around children, but a habit is hard to break. More to the point, I have never read a book that needed expletives to make the story better. I plan to read the next in this series to see if this author can continue to develop a series that is long on a unique story and short on filler. Breezie Bennett has talent and is on the right track.

The billionaires big game book 1
Well I was reading while I was traveling so I had to go back and reread the shower scene to find out if the impression it left me was correct.1st of all it wasn't nearly as good as the other scene farther in the book where they finally get together again. The 1st scene could use a rewrite and make it more sexual because it was kind of flat. Also I think something got edited out Because they were standing in the shower then he was putting her knee over his shoulder . how is that possible when she
Is shorter than him and then later they were standing again. It didn't make ny sense. The second time they got together further back on the book was written much better.Fun, light story to read.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Noah was such a non-committal guy at the beginning that I knew that he was going to fall and fall hard. And Zoe was so set on not getting involved in a relationship that wasn't going to end up with a ring that it was obvious that someone would come along to change her mind. With the two on such opposite sides of the road, it was no wonder that the story had the twists and turns that it did.
I loved all of the characters and the story. It was engaging from the beginning and I didn't want the story to end.
