Blair Babylon is the nom de plume of an award-winning, USA Today-bestselling author who used to publish literary fiction. Because professional reviews of her other fiction usually included the caveat that there was too much deviant sex and too much interesting plot, she decided to abandon all literary pretensions, let her freak flag fly, and write hot, sexy, erotic romance.
What a great way to read the whole series. I had read the series previously one at a time, but over the last couple of days read the whole box set. A different perspective to read one after another. You become more submerged into the deliciousness of the story and fall in love more with the characters.
I absolutely love this series, my favourite of the Billionaire books. I cannot think of one detractor of any of the books they are just so good.
I think this would be an awesome series to be optioned by Passionflix and turned into a mini-series.
To be able to read the stories in the order they should be read in one big binge...you really can't ask for a better time!
A Billionaire in Disguise: Wulf #1 Ohhh, Wulf lets more secrets go with Rae than he intends! Dom vs Domme - Love the interaction! Rae really is a match for him.
A Tycoon Undercover: Wulf #2 Two people who keep to themselves and steer clear of love, falling for each other. Well, a ruckus right at the end should send everyone running!
A Prince, Incognito: Wulf #3 There is so much Wulf keeps to himself. Rae is so incredibly good for him. She sees him!
Billionaire Ever After: Wulf #4 A happily ever after for Wulf & Rae! So many epilogues to answer your questions.
Falling Hard: Lizzy #1 Lizzy gets her Dom date and it changes her. She meets Theo at a club party and he intrigues her...until he blows it. Adding Mannix to the mix gives me goosebumps.
Playing Rough: Lizzy #2 OMG! What has Lizzy gotten herself into? Mannix gives me the shivers and not in a good way. What he's trying to do to the Devilhouse is awful and the contractors are going to revolt! Hopefully Theo can step in to rescue Lizzy and save the Devilhouse.
Breaking Rules: Lizzy #3 Oh, Theo is good! The ultimate lawyer, manipulating those around him...and showing Lizzy that she's not what she thinks she is, that she doesn't need pain but his love.
Burning Bright, Lizzie #4 Holy moly! Action, action and more action! So much tension, anger and love. Lizzy struck it lucky with Theo. Theo struck it lucky with Lizzy, he can't believe she's his. Seriously a darker read in the Billionaire series, but oh so very good.
Alwaysland: Xan Prequel What an intriguing way to start a series on someone...Xan! A heartfelt heart break.
Every Breath you Take: Xan #1 Now for Georgie and Alex! Their story is incredible. Love how neither one 'knows' the other. Alex can be himself and Georgie learns to let go...all in time to run again.
Wild Thing: Xan #2 There are sides to Alex that no one knows. Georgie is one of the few, and even then she is surprised. Heart breaking, in so many characters. The music is insane, Xan can write and Georgie is his muse.
I love the links to the songs throughout Xan's stories - really brings the music out in the stories.
Skiing in June - Wulf & Rae epilogue When you have married the love of your life and your family interferes...to be bested by your wife! God Rae is amazing, she takes three women who have been ill advised and wrecks havoc on her father in law.
Kidnapped - Wulf & Rae epilogue OMG! I cannot believe Hester did that! Rae's family is totally nuts and Wulf is freaking beside himself.
Rea and Wulf at the Hospital - Epilogue to Kidnapped So much stress! First Rea, Wulf and the baby and then Deiter has marital issues which bring him back to Wulf.
Lay Your Hands on Me: Xan #3 More in depth view of Xan and Georgie with all sorts of visits from his two other alter egos. The music flows! An old flame returns, and love blooms. Understanding comes to Georgie and her decision leads to capture.
Nothing Else Matters: Xan #4 I love Alexandre and Georgie's story. Heart wrenching and so full of love.. I spent so many minutes with my heart in my throat and tears in my eyes.
Montreux: Wulf & Rae Epilogue So much drama over a church wedding...really Wulf's father is a piece of work! The amount of time he spends meddling in his childrens' lives is incredible. Wulf definitely puts him in his place. It is so lovely to finally see Rae and Wulf married!
Dream On: Xan Epilogue #1 A bit of heartbreak for Georgie and Alexandre, still, lots of love and a side of determination :) Gets you to the church in the nick of time, every time. Lizzy's wedding is so busy, so many influential politicians in attendance.
Keep Dreaming: Xan Epilogue #2 Fantastic! I love the updates on all the characters. We don't lose sight of Rae because its Lizzy's wedding, or lose sight of Georgie because Rae's having a baby. The flow and mesh are spectacular!
Small Miracles: Xan Epilogue #3 All the miracles that we've seen in this series. It has been an incredible ride with the gang! I can't wait to see what else is in the works from Blair.
Once Upon a Time: Flicka #1 Holy Mother! This next step in the Billionaires in Disguise series is freaking incredible. Flicka has been in periphery for most of the books to date, and does she ever make a grand entrance in her own series. She's so controlled, competent and able to crate fairy tale weddings with little notice!
The story weaves in through others we've read in the Billionaires in Disguise series and it's interesting to see things from her perspective. Oh, and Dieter...I really cannot wait to find out more about him. He's the one you want on your side no matter what. I flove him.
This is a great read and I'm super excited to read the next one that hopefully answers some of the major questions I have.
This is one of the most amazing bundles I have read in a longtime. To read the series' as they were meant to flow, a binge reading heaven! So fantastic - really Blair has this gift!
I originally read these stories when they were each released, several years ago now. About a year ago I re-read them all, over a couple of weeks. I was amazed at how much (plot and details) had stuck with me after all that time. Now, that’s great story-telling!
One of things I loved the most about these books is the close-knit sisterhood between the female characters – Rae, Lizzy and Georgie. They’re university roommates and BFFs, despite having very different childhoods, keeping personal secrets and avoiding discussing their pasts – all for very good reasons. The men – Wulf, Theo and Alexandre, are charismatic, swoon-worthy, dominant, and, like the women, keeping secrets of their own. I loved the chemistry between the couples and the determination of the men to keep their women safe – despite the many challenges they faced.
The interconnected timeline throughout the three series is something else I loved. Blair has done an incredible job of incorporating the relevant details of the three individual storylines into each series. I enjoyed getting each woman’s separate perspective as their friends’ adventures played out. Some might claim this makes the books somewhat repetitious, but I loved it.
These three couples certainly seemed to have more than their share of obstacles to overcome to find their HEA, but that’s what made each series so exciting to read – and this boxed set so binge-worthy! Overall, the stories are well written and the characters are intriguing and engaging. There’s plenty of drama, humor, angst, and suspense, some duplicity, conflict, mystery and danger, several secrets and twists, plus steamy, explicit encounters – many of which feature elements of BDSM.
I received an Advance Reader Copy of this superbundle boxed set and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Finished at last! This was a LOOOOOOOng read! The beginning of the book was confusing. The stories were parts of other books but there were only a few pages of the stories to read, and it wasn't made clear which or whose story the pages were a part of, so it was confusing for me. As you read farther some of these same pages were repeated in the two novels included in this book. Georgie/Alexander and Rae/Wulf's stories make up the bulk of the book, but the reader still isn't given their entire story, so there is some disappointment. There is a lot of unnecessary information and lots of good info. The unnecessary stuff and repeated pages take up lots of room and I started skipping those sections after a while. The upset over polyester napkins versus silk napkins was ridiculous and probably 100 pages or more since it was in several of the stories. Stuff constantly happens to these people; I mean, almost every other page has some new and bad situation that they get into so I can't say the stories weren't interesting. This is what kept me turning the page to read more. One good thing about these stories is the absence of the over-the-top sex that is usually a big part of Ms. Babylon's writing. It is there but it's much more subtle and didn't make me uncomfortable.
My first introduction to Ms Babylon’s books was about Cash and Rox, book 1. I was immediately drawn in by her characters, writing style and storylines. I then jumped to my Kindle list to see what else I had by her or if I needed to purchase the next book in the series. (I didn’t have it, but will purchase soon). Instead I found I had this boxed set, I had forgotten. It is the best bundle of books that crosses characters, story and timelines. It is not confusing or boring as you go through all the stories. There is quite a bit of action, danger, and drama. Including heartbreak as well as deep commitment, tender and rough sex.
I was so sad when it ended, because I was so invested in each of the couples. I will definitely buy her other series in bundles as I can. I hope you take the time to read her works, even if you get them one book at a time, you won’t be disappointed.
Book Review: Royal Romance Superbundle Boxed Set: Billionaires in Disguise (Billionaire Boxed Sets) Author: Blair Babylon My Rating: 5 Stars
REVIEW If you love Billionaire romance, strong females, sexy alpha males you are in for a royal treat with these various series by this author. I loved each series of books however my favorites would be the rock star romance. I absolutely loved Xan and Georgie! The various series of books intermingle as many of the characters through-out are family and/or friends. Which makes the stories even better! Grab your copy and happy reading.
**I am voluntarily leaving my honest review of this book**
This is one of the best series I have read so far. Plus there are more books to read after it that are connected. It took me a long time to get through it and I did not want it to end because the story was no finished! All I could say is “Then what happened”! Already have the next 5 books on my iPad to start on today. I read over 200 books a year so this praise does not come without merit. Very original, well written, wonderful characters and well described geography. Was LOL funny, a give me a Kleenex sad, super hot and steamy, with twists and just great plot lines. Sooo good!
These are very sexy books and I actually don’t read the “sex”. What I like is the complex characters, their intelligence and the ideas exchanged as the plot races on. I like that the writing is rarely repetitive and the vocabulary is excellent in that it’s correct and often challenging. This is such great reading. I look up locations, words, musical references. I love how I am challenged as a reader and appreciate how much the author has learned and shared with me. After reading this very long series of interlocking novels, all I want is more
This bundle is full of amazing reads. Full series of different couples that has something for everyone. What I love is how different the couples and characters are. With so many authors the characters are the same with different names. Not with Blair Babylon, every character and story is unique. The books are full of action, steamy times, and love. Highly recommend! I was given the opportunity to read a copy of this book.
This book is AMAZING and an ABSOLUTE MUST if you're a fan of Ms. Babylon's!! This is a BEAUTIFUL compilation of stories from both of her INCREDIBLE Series BID and RID. My favorite is Alwaysland I swear that story makes me cry but I have to admit Xan and Georgie are one of my favorites. I loved Charlie's and Rae's stories too! I LOVED ALL the stories and you will too once you purchase this AWESOME BOOK!!! I was given an ARC in exchange for my honest review. One person found this helpful
I read these stories previously when they were being released, but the experience is so much better as one box set! I loved re-reading each couple’s stories. If you have never read this author before, I’m jealous. You will not be the same after! Her writing is phenomenal and this box set will suck you inside a world of hot billionaires and the women they fall in love with. Definitely recommend!!
I loved everything about the Royal Romance. The best part is the secrets, the lies, the craziness but overall that I couldn't stop from reading. How many kidnapping can you have or shooting. This box set opens you to a different reality. Thank you Blair for the box set. I can't say I didn't enjoy it.
This was a novel (pardon the pun) way of bringing the series together. I enjoyed the drama and intense description of the characters. You have a way with words that allows the reader to put themselves right into the situation. I want to know more about the characters and where they are now. I am very curious about their relationships.
Do not miss this bundle of my favorite series by Blair Babylon. Rae and Wulf, Lizzie and Theo and Georgie and Xan. I have all these stretched out separately across all my reading apps. Now they are all together, in order and all are awesome reads. Grab this quick! Great reads all.
I have loved each and every Billionaires in Disguise book... how wonderful to have them all in one set! These are stories I will read again (and again) as I love these characters and their stories... and all the sexy scenes interwoven with drama and danger.
I absolutely love interconnected stories! I love checking in on past characters. These books have everything! I was thrown around like a rag doll! Loved these stories so much!!
I could not put this series down! Twists and turn on every page. Blair was so creative with each character and their in depth personalities and issues. Can’t wait to continue reading more!!!
If you already have the books don’t bother to buy this, she just put the books in order of sequence, from the description I thought that she re-edited the books so it’s only the parts of Wulf and Rae is in there…it’s not! It’s just literally the bookssssss……
This is an excellent box set with stories about the characters you are introduced to. Their stories of romance has its ups and downs with interference from other characters. Action, adventure and romance with HEA. Recommend.
This was an amazing read I couldn't put it down. It made my vacation more enjoyable. There is great suspense as well as history. I'm not sure how historically accurate but it was great to visualize some of the places I have visited in the books. An excellent read.
This set has it all. All Blair's characters are so well developed. The plot of each of the stories are intriguing and have you hooked within the first few pages. I have now re-read books (2023) as a set in the order in which they were written. Still holds up. From California, to Europe.....take a ride with this box set. Hours of great entertainment
