Nathan Trainor, self-made billionaire, is fed up with women
wanting him for his money and prestige. While nursing his
sorrows at his very exclusive club, Nathan makes the
acquaintance of two other members similarly contemplating
their futures. Connecting over their woes, they make a wager
to find true love within the year, and whoever loses must give
up something of intrinsic value. But the bet is soon forgotten
when Nathan is taken ill with the flu epidemic that has wiped
out almost all of his staff.
Chloe Russell, who is temping for Trainor Electronics, is
happy to fill in as the CEO's secretary. Disliking large
corporations for what they had done to her father, Chloe is
delighted with the paycheck which she desperately needs to
look after her live-in grandmother. What she
didn't expect was the instant attraction to her new boss, or
to find herself playing nursemaid to him at his home when he
is taken ill. As Chloe and Nathan spend more time together,
their scorching attraction cannot be extinguished. But as
passion and friendship develop between the pair, their
differences also become apparent. With both of them dealing
with issues from their past, will they trust in their feelings
and wager on their future together?
THE CEO BUYS IN by Nancy Herkness is a provocative,
contemporary romance that kept me riveted from start to
finish. With sexy characters that are so much more beneath the
surface, and love scenes that are sizzling in all the right
places, this novel flows effortlessly. Learning about Nathan
and Chloe's past helped me fall even more in
love with their story. Although I'm not sure about the title -
it just doesn't do it for me - I really enjoyed this novel,
and as it is the first in The Wager of Hearts series, I cannot
wait for the next instalment. THE CEO BUYS IN by Nancy
Herkness is an engrossing and engaging romance and I highly
recommend it.
Self-made billionaire Nathan Trainor feels restless and
disillusioned. His company may be thriving, but he can’t
find a woman who sees him for more than his wealth. With his
love life in the red, he meets two other billionaire
bachelors at the ultra-exclusive Bellwether Club. The three
of them make a wager of the heart: they must find women who
love them for who they are, not their money.
Savvy
office temp Chloe Russell is trying to scrape together the
money she needs to support her grandmother. So when a flu
epidemic strikes Trainor Electronics and she’s promoted to
Nathan Trainor’s assistant, she jumps at the lucrative
opportunity. But then Nathan himself falls ill, and he and
Chloe must work from his penthouse while he recuperates.
Before long, it’s clear there’s genuine heat between them,
and it’s more than just a fever spike. Will Nathan win
Chloe’s heart—and the bet? Or will their differences destroy
any chance for love?
