Book Review | The Billionaire Boss Next Door by New York Times Bestseller @authormaxmonroe #romcom #


Title: The Billionaire Boss Next Door

Author: Max Monroe

Genre: Romantic Comedy, Contemporary Romance

Book Blurb:

My new boss has it all. In spades.

Gorgeous green eyes? Check.

Hard-and-sexy body? Check.

Intelligence? Check.

Success? A big fat billionaire check.

Too bad I haven’t started out on the best foot.

My big mouth already turned him against me, and tempting good looks and success aside, Trent Turner is no peach either. He’s stubborn and thick-headed, and son of a fruitcake, he thinks he knows everything there is to know about the hotel business.

With him running the development of the new Vanderturn New Orleans Hotel and me doing the design, our work relationship is far too intimate for two people who absolutely despise one another.

But, that’s not all.

See, he isn’t just my billionaire boss from hell. He’s my new neighbor, too.

Same city.

Same building.

Same floor.

Trent Turner is my billionaire boss next door.

Holy moly, let’s hope my career—and hormones—can survive.

Disclaimer: If you generally love to suffer, hate fun of any kind, and are allergic to laughter, this book isn’t for you.

My Review:

When Greer and Trent first meet, it’s not in a boardroom or an office for an interview but in a workout room. Greer knows design and much to Trent’s annoyance, she’s truthful in her assessment of his father’s hotel. Greer is hired as the interior designer for the new Vanderturn New Orleans Hotel and Trent is overseeing the whole operation. Talk about an explosive beginning. To add fuel to the fire, they wind up living right next door to each other. Their hatred for each other grows with each passing day until their mutual friends have had enough. They scheme to bring these two together, no matter how hard Greer and Trent fight it. Can these two stay professional long enough to create the most beautiful hotel the world has ever seen? And even more importantly, can they open their hearts to each other, or will they ruin their only chance for happiness?

This is my first book by Max Monroe (I know, I know, where have I been?) and it’s like they wrote it just for me. I love romantic comedies and in this one, the dialogue is side-splitting humor I couldn’t stop laughing at. The one-liners are balanced by the electric sexual tension between these two. The best part of the whole story was when Greer didn’t just hop in the sack with Trent but told him she couldn’t sleep with her boss. No matter how much they both wanted it, they were responsible adults. I won’t give away anything but there is a swoon-worthy ending which melted my heart into my shoes.

If you love romantic comedy with a snarky heroine, an alpha male in need of an ego check, pick up The Billionaire Boss Next Door. Highly recommend!

Favorite Character/Quote: Greer. A woman after my own heart, she’s the spunky heroine who’s on the precipice between success and failure. Every emotion, thought and snarky comment is presented in this laugh-out-loud-til-you-pee-your-pants romantic comedy.

My Rating: 5+ stars
