Release Date: January 15, 2018

Synopsis

Billionaire Alexander Kazankov always wins. But he didn’t count on high-heeled, drop-dead sexy Lily Bennett getting in the way of his latest deal. She’s a distraction he doesn’t need, not when he’s so close to making things right for his family. Lily may walk and talk like a Southern piece of fluff, but she’s been underestimated before. She's determined to succeed—and no entitled, arrogant asshole, especially the too-gorgeous-for-his-own-good-kind, is going to get in her way. Oil meet water. Gasoline meet spark. It’s all out war as these two enemies go toe-to-toe in an ugly, take no prisoners battle to prove they’re the right choice to be CEO of the same company. All too soon playing dirty in the boardroom leads to playing even dirtier in the dark. It’s destined to end in personal and professional disaster. So why the hell can’t they stop?

Review

Besting the Billionaire is not your usual tale of the billionaire businessman finding love - nor does is have the same type of heroine. Instead this book is a tale of two strong and independent business minded people who want the same company - One who currently has the legal right to it, and the other who will stop at nothing to get it back under his control. They both have thier reasons for it - but one things for certain - things are about to get interesting in the board room.

Lily Bennett has something to prove to the board of the company her late husband left her to helm as CEO. They don't believe she can handle the business and keep it stable - simply because she's a woman. But Lily isn't one to back down and she's been through enough in the past to know how to stand firm and hold her own. Except for when her heart and head are at war and her body is thrumming with sexual tension and she's met with her match in both the bedroom and boardroom.

Alexi also has his reasons for wanting the company - and he's willing to play as dirty as he has to to make sure that it falls into his hands - he'll get what he wants. But then his head and heart decide he wants the formidable business rival he never expected in Lily and that's when the trouble comes in. When business mixes with pleasure - it's never as simple as planned.

I loved getting to the heart of these two characters and not only understanding their motivations, but also feeling their emotions about them. They both have an internal struggle of sorts that pits their heart agains their brain and their end game and things couldn't get more twisty - or maybe they could. Alexi and Lily are firey hot together - both in temper and physicality - which makes their tryst all the more compelling - sucking me in and making me wonder what exactly I'm rooting for in the end.

Will these two find a way to make it work? Will the business tear them apart?
