Betting the Billionaire is a good novella which I did enjoy but didn’t fall in love with. Like so many other novellas there was just something missing for me. The author did well with the space she had and the story was decently built but I wanted a little more. The romance and characters suffered in the same way. I liked them but it wasn’t quite enough. All in all this is an enjoyable novella that romance lovers should like. Betting The Billionaire is one of the first multicultural offerings that this reviewer has encountered within the Indulgence imprint. I must also add that I am impressed.Kiesha is a strong and opinionated character, unafraid to speak her mind. Her Achilles' heel?Her need to do and be for everyone but herself.As it turns out...her male counterpart in this scenario has a bit of the same savior complex.He also, as it turns out has a yen for revenge. In his cross hairs...Kiesha's father.This book takes the romance a little slower. It has to with all of the touch and go family drama that these two have going on. The fun here is finding out whether these two can get past all of the hurt and misunderstanding that has been generated outside of their romantic bubble; to get to the passion that is lighting the very strong spark between them.This is a story that could have been longer. The emotional punch of the ending is dampened somewhat by the need to get all of the loose ends within the spa of 100+ pages.That being said...This is a very poignant romance. The real star of this story being the love of family, and the lengths that one can be driven to because of said love.
A quick read with a lot of heat and tools! Full review to follow!
