These books are among the best stories I've ever read and that's saying a lot since I read 200 books a year! The Calcagni and Maddox families will touch you and remain with you for a long time! They are ruthless business billionaires but they also are completely devoted to family and no matter what, family comes first with them. Set against the backdrop of stunning Alaska, this set of books will hook you from the first page and not let you go! The characters are fantastic and the suspense is action packed. You'll fall in love with these billionaires and their families!

In Her Billionaire boss, we meet Luca and Jacey, and they make a great pair!!! I especially love how Jacey finds the family she always wanted, and the man who will stand beside her as she follows a dream, though the dream changes a bit along the way.

In Her Billionaire Bodyguard, we meet Don and Bailey. There's some suspense as to what happens next!! Love that Don and Bailey had to go against her family to get together, and that things turned in a new direction for Don, and that he was able to really help Bailey!! Can't say too much, or there will be spoilers!!! I will say, I have my own idea of what will happen to Kellan, so can't wait to see what Jo does with his character!

In Her Billionaire Secret Admirer, we have Rhys and Alora's story!! This book had a few surprises I didn't see coming!! Wow!!! Alora is very fortunate to have a man like Rhys in her life. Love that the Calcagnis and the Maddoxes younger generation are making changes as they move ahead in their lives. Changes for the better. You do need to read this series in order, and all of them are great!! Can't wait to see what happens next in this series!

I received a complimentary copy of this book, was not required to leave a review, and the opinion expressed is my own.

Her Billionaire Secret Admirer is book 3 in the Black Tie Billionaires series. It is an entertaining story packed full of danger, suspense and intrigue. Two rival families for years, the Maddox and the Calcagni find that they may be better working together than alone. They prove it when the Maddux family start having deadly threats made on their family. Alora is almost killed in a car accident and Grayson has his house blown up. A person shows up that looks like Kellan and takes his place in the Maddux company. He starts trying to take over the company. Secrets are revealed, and Jacey marrying Luca Calcagni was much to the Maddux parents and grandparents displeasure however, she needed him as much as he needed her. But, Jacey and Alora feel safe around Luca and Rhys, a kind of safety they don't feel with anyone else and without them all their lives may lay in danger.

All the stories in this set are all clean billionaire romance.

I had a hard time doing anything but read when I started this box set. I had not read any of the books in this series before. I especially loved book 1. A widow trying to make a living by herself with the company of her dead husband who hates her because she was a Maddox. My heart just bled for her. But she gets her chance at love again.
Book 2 has a really big surprise for the Maddox siblings. Also, there is another marriage between the rival companies. Lots of mystery.
Book 3 continues the saga with more mysteries & another marriage.
I enjoyed all these stories. Where each story can be read independently, to appreciate the series it is best to read them in order.
I received a free copy of this box set. This is my voluntary review.

Black Tie Billionaires Box Set #1 by Jo Grafford has the first three books in the series. This is the story of two families, The Calcagni and Maddox families , who are fighting but the current generation needs each other to solve a mystery and the life threatening events. Jo Grafford makes the two families real even with their billions. Adoptions that are secrets, accidents that seem not to be just add to the adventure. I am glad that the sets are available so now you can get them and have more stories to read at one place.
I received this set from the author but was not required to review it. These thoughts are my own.

days of our lives stuff

Honestly this is the kind of writing a 12 year old girl might find enthralling and the stuff of romance, but reads more like days of our lives in the unbelievable characters, especially the men! The settings, just everything. There really isn’t a storyline that isn’t about these high flyers and their romance.
I didn’t bother finishing these silly make believe people in their silly make believe world.

intriguing

Black Tie Billionaires offers the reader so much! The stories bring excitement, love, mystery, and so much more without the heavy tension that books of mystery usually bring. So we’ll written, folding so much into each chapter, that it was difficult to put this series down. Can’t wait to start Box set 2! I am now a fan of Jo Grafford.

Corporate greed and intrigue at its best. Book 1 isn’t my favorite, but I loved the other two books. The two families go through so much. But as the Calcagni family believes, family is everything. And as the brothers and sisters interact more and more, we see how they protect their own. Really enjoyable reading.

Good but

Really good stories with plenty to keep you at the edge of your seat. However, it always leaves something hanging and unanswered. I prefer my books to end with all loose ends nicely resolved. Just a personal preference, i guess. Apart from that, really good read.

All three of these stories I give 5 stars. They each have great characters that of course include hunky Bodyguards. They are all sweet, clean romances.

Wonderful read

It was so nice to enjoy a book that was both romantic and contained unexpected twists!
I appreciate the omission of gratuitous language and "smouldering" content.

Just enough mystery along with romance and intrigue. The series is a great mix of all that, and
