The Billionaire's Promise

by Margarette Grey

From the moment I met Brandon Lucien, I found a love of epic proportions. But he was also a damaged soul. He was insecure, burned by his past, and a man driven by revenge.

Yet, I saw the beauty of his heart and the relentless need to survive. I am so deeply and madly in love with him that I need him like the heart beating in my chest.

Brandon has overcome his demons, but mine still haunts me. The shadows of my past are waiting to shatter my dreams of a beautiful future.

We promised to defy all odds, stand against every risk, and face our unknown future together. I trust him with my life, but do I trust myself? I saved Brandon from his misery once, but can he save me from mine?

Trying to forget my past wasn’t the real escape. It was acceptance.

Did I open The Billionaire’s Promise as soon as I saw it? Yes.

Did I reread the other two in the series to refresh? Nope.

I meant to but was excited when I saw the ARC in my library when I woke up. Thankfully, I finished what I was reading prior so that I could fully immerse myself in The Billionaire’s Promise.

How many hoops must one go through to get their happily ever after?

Alayna and Brandon don’t seem to be able to catch a break! If it’s not one thing, it’s another. The Billionaire’s Mask series is about how the past can impact one’s present/future and its aftermath. Relationships are not always smooth sailing. You can meet the right person, but it can be the wrong time. If it’s meant to be, you’ll find a way to return to one another. Book one and two, The Billionaire’s Mask and The Billionaire’s Revenge, respectively, focuses on Brandon’s past. Book three, The Billionaire’s Promise is about Alayna’s.

I’m glad that it wasn’t a love triangle or any other shape, to be honest. Yet, so many people love/d the heroine in the romantic sense. However, they all leave her at one point or another.

Everyone has a past.

I’ve tried to hide what I’ve been through from the people I loved for a long time. I buried it deep within my soul as though all of that didn’t happen. But I was only fooling myself. I thought it was my escape route until I met Brandon.

Running away doesn’t solve anything. At some point, it will come back and haunt you until you finally confront it.

On the outside, Brandon and Alayna may seem completely different. But on the inside, they’re more alike than one would think, which is why they work.

I was stubborn enough not to admit that I saw myself in him—as though looking at my own reflection in front of a mirror. We didn’t go through the same misery, but I’ve also imprisoned myself in a cage I created—just like when he locked himself in his room for ten years. He was just as broken as I was and just as disturbed.

They understand one another.

Although I didn’t read The Billionaire’s Promise in one sitting, I managed to finish reading in one day. Even when I had to take breaks in between because I couldn’t focus, it was exciting to finally read The Billionaire’s Promise in general. The nostalgia of reading Margarette Grey’s writing takes me back to middle/high school and reading on Wattpad, where I originally read The Billionaire’s Mask. To finally read it published, it just hits differently. Nothing on Wattpad because I still read on there every so often. Thank you, Margarette, for an ARC.

Brandon and Alayna’s story comes to an end in this stunning conclusion to the trilogy. Picking up from where the previous book left off, The Billionaire’s Promise explores Alayna’s dark past and ghosts from that pst come back to haunt her. Brandon will stop at nothing to protect his love and make sure they both get their happy ending.
I so loved this book. It’s steamy and so emotional. Very well written and full of surprises. Well done to Margarette Grey. 5 exemplary stars!

-ARC recieved in exchange of an honest opinion-

This final book was truly satisfying. I was so glad to finally see Brandon and Alayna find their happy ever after. Also, Alayna's past really hit close to home so I am glad to see she found a good man after everything she went through. Beautiful ending and I hope that some of the secondary characters will get some spotlight too in the future.

This is the third and final book of The Billionaire’s series and it certainly didn't disappoint. Both Alayna and Brandon are damaged from their pasts and have chosen to hide rather than face their tormentors. Brandon hid in his room behind a mask for ten years until Alayna came into his life and helped him face his demons and tormentors. She stood beside him through uncertainties and danger until he became the man she knew he was capable of becoming again. Now it's Alayna's turn to come to terms with her past and face her demons but will Brandon be strong enough to endure what she has yet to tell him. Will he stay or will he leave? Does he love her enough to stand and support her through whatever comes next? I throughly enjoyed this series, there was tension, mystery, secrets, danger and love, definitely a great read.

Sometimes, when you're not quite whole, finding that person who can make you whole again…well, that is truly amazing. And, that's just what Alayna and Brandon do for one another.

It wasn't easy getting there, but, if not, Ms. Grey would not have kept too many readers satisfied.

Angst, drama, struggles, makes the end sweeter still!

I really enjoyed the entire series! Thank you!

Finally we have the conclusion and it was totally worth the wait. Love the unexpected events and the thrill that it gives to the book. From the first chapter is a rollercoaster of emotions that will have you reading and absorbing everything. It was a long story but totally worth it as you'll fall in love with the characters and their story. Definitely a must read.
