Blue Mountain Billionaires #1
Flirting with My Billionaire Boss
I’m pregnant and on the run.
When I get to the town of Blue Mountain, I’m lucky enough to find a job posting as a personal assistant right away.
But when I get to my interview, it’s for a billionaire, and he’s totally gorgeous. After the dark past I’ve had, I’ve sworn off guys with money.
Tensions rise when I get the job, and now he’s my irresistible boss. And he’s completely off-limits.
When his housekeeper twists her ankle after tripping over the dog, it’s up to me to take over her responsibilities. Only, I have no idea how to cook and clean. Let’s just say the situation gets real interesting, real fast.
He doesn’t know I’m pregnant, and our attraction is growing every day. When he finds out the truth, will it destroy everything?
Flirting with my Billionaire Boss is a hilarious closed-door romcom with a naughty dog, a dash of mystery, office romance, burnt fish sticks, helicopter rides, a yacht, and one big billionaire family.

Weston is Callie's new boss and she's escaping from a terrible ex. I loved this new start and the setting, but I guess my issues were personal.
I soooo wanted this to be a little more developed and longer. There were details that were skimmed over and then time skipped too far ahead. I was rooting for Weston and Callie, and got invested in this story, but I needed more.
Weston is charming, generous, and sweet...and exactly what Callie needs. I couldn't help but love him. Callie has been through a lot, but she's tough and determined. Hale always makes her characters realistic and I love that.
Content: mild+ romance; talk of abortion, emotional abuse

Clean read, but not for me
Wow. This one was tough for me. The writing felt all over the place and verb tense was a mess. I hate leaving a negative review. This is normally a story that I would like, but I found it to be very flat and one-dimensional.
Content: Just kissing; verbally abusive husband and abortion is discussed.
Language: No Language
Religious: No religion
Happy reading!!

This story fell so flat, and there were so many flippant and cringy moments. And heavy topics were brought up like they were no big deal. It’s a no for me.

Running Away, Falling In Love, and Ruined Shoes
by Barbara Kelley
"Flirting With My Billionaire Boss" is Book 1 of Cindy Ray Hale's Blue Mountain Billionaires Sweet Romantic Comedy series. I liked this first book because it wasn't all overly filled with sex scenes. Anybody ages 8 to 108 can read this book without fear of passing out from graphic details. This book is about Callie Richardson, a young woman who is married to a verbally abusive rich man who doesn't ever want to have children. When Callie finds out that she's pregnant, she runs away from her husband because she knows he will want her to have an abortion. She wants to keep the baby, so she runs away at the airport, sneaks past him, hears him on the phone with another woman and telling her he loves her, and takes a taxi to another state. She travels from Atlanta's airport to Blue Mountain, Georgia, where she plans on getting a job and starting over with her baby. She meets Stella at a cafe and Stella tells her to look on the grocery store's bulletin board where job listings are posted. This is also the story of Weston Keith, a billionaire with a home in Blue Mountain and a Penthouse apartment in Atlanta. Weston has issues with women only wanting him for his money. He also just fired his female assistant, Natasha, for a suspected theft. Now he needs a new assistant, so where does he post the advertisement: the grocery store bulletin board, of course. On his way to post the note, he literally runs into a beautiful Latina woman whom he seems to fall instantly in love with. The woman is Callie and Stella is with her. Since Stella works for Weston's brother, Langston, Weston recognizes her. When Callie tells him she's okay, he goes into the grocery store and posts the note. Later, Callie finds the add, applies for the job, passes a criminal background check, and starts working as Weston's assistant, leaving out the part that she's pregnant and not yet divorced. This is also the story of Martha, the housekeeper and cook; Weston's mother, father, and four younger brothers; Jenni, a lifelong friend who is equally as wealthy, but who Weston thinks of as a sister; Markus, Callie's buzzard of a rich man soon-to-be ex-husband; and Skipper, a fluffy little dog that enjoys peeing and barfing on shoes, literally having the run of Weston's household, as well as performing other shenanigans in the house. This book is serious and tears her king in some scenes, romantic in some scenes, and downright hilarious in other scenes. By the way, I figured out right away who the thief really was. I gave this book a 5 star rating and can hardly wait for Book 2 to come out. This is probably going to be a 5 book series because there are 5 billionaire brothers, all within marrying age, and the 5 brothers' mother wants her share of grandbabies. I received an advanced reader copy and have posted my honest review voluntarily.

Flirting With My Billionaire Boss focuses on Callie Richardson’s decision to leave her abusive relationship with her husband and her life with him, literally, to save the life of her unborn child that she wants to raise. Confused, emotionally conflicted, and ready to start a new chapter, Callie ends up in Blue Mountain, Georgia, where she not only makes a new friend but ends up with a ridiculously hot and caring boss, Weston Keith, who she can’t seem to take her eyes off of. Good news: She is his live-in assistant and gets to see him every day. Bad news: She’s kept her pregnancy a secret from almost everyone, including her boss. What happens when he finds out, and will his feelings change?
I was excited to read this book as it was my first time reading this author’s work, and I got an early copy. I went in with high expectations, and I was not disappointed! I loved how strong-willed Callie is written and her commitment to not only giving herself a better life but her future child as well. Even though Callie’s situation was a serious one to be getting herself out of, at no point did I feel like it became too “depressing” and left the rom-com behind. The MMC, Weston Keith, is also struggling with trust issues, which almost makes it refreshing to see how he starts to take to Callie. Their banter is light and playful while also, at times, not losing the seriousness of their conversations, making it easy to see how perfect the characters are together. Overall, this book was a great short read that, at times, had me on the edge of my seat with anticipation. I can’t wait to read the next books in the series!

This is the first in Cindy Rae Hale's new sweet romantic comedy series, Blue Mountain Billionaires and it is off to a brilliant start. I was pulled into the story right from the beginning and completely engrossed till the end. Callie is married to a verbally abusive man who had made it clear he doesn't want children. She also finds out he has been cheating on her. When she finds out she is pregnant, she decides to run away from him because she knows he won't let her keep the baby. She escapes to Blue Mountain and meets Stella and they become fast friends. Callie needs a job to support herself and Stella gives her advice on how she can find one. Weston is in need of a new assistant, and Callie applies for the position and is hired. Weston and Callie immediately connect and he helps her with getting her divorce. They become close, but Weston is also careful, as he has been burned in the past by women only after his money. Also, Callie has not been completely honest with him and is keeping a secret from him. Will this jeopardize their budding relationship?
The book definitely left me with a smile on my face and a happy feeling afterwards. The characters were interesting and well-developed with realistic qualities that gave them an authentic personality and were easily relatable. The story was well-written and delightfully cute and I really enjoyed it. I am looking forward to reading the next book in the series.

When I escape to the charming town of Blue Mountain to hide, I’m immediately hired as a personal assistant by the oldest son of the billionaire family in town.
My new boss, Weston Keith, is irresistible and completely off-limits. I can keep things professional between us, I swear.
When his housekeeper twists her ankle after tripping over the dog, I take over her responsibilities. Only, I have no idea how to cook and clean. Let’s just say the situation gets real interesting, real fast.
On top of that, I have a teensy-weensy secret he knows nothing about. I’m pregnant and hiding from my ex husband. That wouldn’t matter so much if sparks weren’t flying between us.
When Weston finds out the truth, will it destroy everything? this was a quick read for me that had me staying up too late.i received this book through book funnel free promo but wasn't required to leave an review so these are my thoughts on the book.i will be reading more of her books in the future.

Book one of the Blue Mountain Billionaires.
The first book centers around Callie and Weston. She’s pregnant and on the run from her husband(soon to be ex at some point). Just up and runs away from him in an airport. He was super controlling and definitely didn’t want kids.
Callie needs a place to go, a place to stay and a place to work. Thankfully she picks the right taxi that takes her to Blue Mountain and Stella.
Weston is one of the billionaire brothers that needs a new assistant after thinking the last one was stealing.
He is instantly drawn to Callie but can tell that she’s hiding something.
I didn’t feel like this story had that much romance/emotion. It was an interesting timeline that kinda jumped and next thing you know they are professing love for each other.
I did enjoy the family aspect of it and I’m interested to see how the next couple stories play out.

This is such a fun story. Callie finds out that her abusive husband is also cheating on her after finding out some other shocking news. She knows it is best to get away from him and here is where the fun starts, she ends up in Blue Mountain a place she has never heard of. I really enjoyed this fast, easy read with funny moments that made me smile, the chemistry between Weston and Callie was so great even though they were both trying to hide it because you can’t fall for your boss or employee, right? I’m excited for the next books in this series.

Flirting with my Billionaire Boss
Callie needs a job. She runs from a bad relationship with a wealthy and controlling husband to Blue Mountain. When she applies at the Keith residence for a personal assistant position she is hired. Only she has a secret from her boss. Weston fired his assistant for theft. When Callie shows up there is a connection and he hires her. They become close and he helps her get the divorce she seeks. What happens when her secret comes out?
The Blue Mountain Billionaires series looks like it will be a good one to follow.

Fun idea for a story, but it fell a little short in development---too many things just happened without enough background. Characters were too quick to give up, and too indifferent about certain things. Who is going to put up with a dog who pees on a guest, throws up in someone's shoes, and more? I would have expected more outrage-embarrassment-apologies at least. But nope. I realize a dog is a minor character, however the actions or lack of by the owner were an insult to dog owners everywhere. I prefer more realism in my human characters. Not one of this author's best works.

A cute, quick read
A cute story that is sweet and cozy. I felt like some of the issues Callie faced in the beginning were TOO easily handled. Weston is a good guy and who wouldn’t want a buff billionaire? I just felt that neither of them were well developed and needed a little more angst in the book. It was a cute story, rather original, but even Markus could have been shown in a more nasty light. It didn’t make sense that he was undergoing therapy and still acting like a jerk. It was cute, but not very deep.

She runs away from her husband when she hears him on the phone
He is SO controlling . . . and when she discovers she is pregnant she KNOWS he will want to abort the child!! Fortunately she meets a woman who is willing to help and she gets a job with her help!! Not too sure about him though — ANOTHER billionaire!!! THIS IS A TERRIFIC STORY. Totally loved it!!! I received a copy of this book from the publisher. All thoughts and comments are my own.

Fun quick read
This is a fun and quick read. Callie leaves her abusive cheating husband and lands a job as Weston's assist. Cue cute dog, slightly overbearing mom, romantic attraction and misunderstandings and you have the makings of a really enjoyable story. Great start to series.

Meh. I listened to this through Hoopla. It was a short book so I decided to just get through it. It started off with the FMC being married and then getting a divorce from the help of her new boss. Even though the vast majority of the plot happens after the divorce. It isn’t totally clear until the end and it just gives icks to me.

Blue Mountain Billionaires Book 1
Not my kind of romance. The story line seems to make horrible behavior ok. Very juvenile writing style. This book would not make me read another by this author.

Excellent!
I really wish this had been a longer book to give more detail to the reader, but short stories are fun too. I like this series because the Keith brothers are fun to read about, and the sweet romance is refreshing.

Ok, just not for me
It was an ok read. I’m not a huge fan of the characters taking in first person so that kind of turned me off at the beginning. I finished the book just to see how it ended but I almost quit after the first chapter. It just wasn’t for me.

Short romantic comedy by Cindy Ray Hale. Great chemistry between the two main characters, Callie and Weston. This is a funny, sweet, clean romance.
