GRR Reviews The Billionaire Playboy (The Sherbrookes by Christina Tetreault

The Billionaire Playboy is a contemporary romance featuring the "blueblood vs. commoner" trope, though it is very well polished.

Charlotte "Charlie" O'Brien, a navy doctor, returned to North Salem, MA to visit her average family when a hurricane hit. After the storm left, she found Jake Sherbrooke is in town. Jake is leading the effort of his Falmouth Foundation disaster relief. The media called him prince charming, and indeed the current POTUS is his father, but he refused Secret Service protection. He's out there nailing boards and moving trees just like any common man. Charlie found Jake was nothing like she expected, and Jake found Charlie utterly fascinating. But is there a chance between them when they are so different?

The story relied on quite a bit of inadequacy trope for the darkest hour, which is a trope in itself. Also, I hate the new cover, as this cover is the same as one of the novels by Jennifer Blake. You can find which one yourself. Finally, both characters are just... too nice. But at least the author's experience in polishing the story produced an above average tale.
