GRR Reviews The Billionaire's Bid by Nicole Casey
The Billionaire's Bid is basically a fairy tale about a down-and-out girl rescued in the nick of time by a rich prince. The plot is trope and delivery is merely average, with some plot plausibility problems, and crude language about sex.
Preston Maxwell can buy most things on the planet. Women threw themselves at him... Except for one... Lyla Bishop, a nurse he met. She's petite and curvy. AND she's not impressed by his wealth or charm. So why was she offering herself at a virgin auction at his favorite gentlemen's club? // Lyla Bishop had never thought she'd sunk so low. She's efficient as a nurse, but she was nonetheless downsized. With bills piling up, and her father also in financial ruins, she saw the virgin auction as the only way to get some breathing room while she looks for a job. And her winning bidder is none other than the entitled jerk Preston Maxwell... who's also oh... so hot, and he can teach her about sex... but is that love, or was she just whoring herself?
The setup was tolerable, but the rest of the book is thoroughly uninspiring. The sex scenes are crude as f*** with terms like "meat" and "seed" instead of emotions like bliss and rapture. By the end Lyla was offered the head nurse position at a different clinic when she's NEVER had a supervisory position before. It really made no sense.
