About this ebook

She’s got a billionaire boyfriend, but life is far from perfect…


Thirty-four and divorced, Sierra Wu is a constant disappointment to her family. They approved of her former career as an engineer but were horrified when she quit to run a small greeting card store. 


So, the last thing she expected in her not-so-spectacular life was being swept off her feet by Colton Sanders. Yes, that Colton Sanders, the billionaire. They’ve been together for a year, and despite his reputation with women, it’s going well.


There’s only one tiny problem: Jake Tong.


A former friend and employee of Colton, the irritatingly handsome Jake tells Sierra to break up with Colton for her own good. She refuses, of course. Why should she trust Jake?


But as she continues to bump into Jake in awkward situations, the attraction between them grows, and she starts wondering if he’s right about Colton…

Highly relatable, low-key romance Like the Old Dominion song, Jake sets out to convince Sierra to "Break Up with Him" when he realizes that the girl who caught his eye is the girlfriend of the amoral billionaire who Jakes knows all too well. Sierra's sense of self is slowly being crushed under the weight of her family's expectations, so she doesn't take Jake's interference the way he'd intended. Still, these two circle around each other for the first half of the book, until Sierra's eyes are opened and she's able to see the real Colton Sanders. I really enjoyed the way the story was driven by their individual quests for self-confidence as each had to deal with constant disapproval from family members, though in different ways. I loved how the author shows how their emotional states impact their relationships, and the process they each go through to get to the truth in their hearts. It's more than a study of rebound relationships; it focuses on how to develop the kind of deep connection necessary to sustain a lasting, healthy, loving relationship. I absolutely adored the way Sierra responded to Jake's dommy side, and I made notes to stock up on cherry pies. This book has a lot of steamy scenes - more than I remember from the author's previous books - and I loved every bit of it I thought the "F-& Billionaires Potpourri" was a brilliantly hilarious solution to the unwanted gift! So much of this book celebrates the strong friendship between the five Cider Bar Sisters, and I couldn't have loved that more. I'm eagerly awaiting the final story that will deliver Rose's HEA. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
