THE BILLIONAIRE TAKES A BRIDE is Book 3 in Jessica Clare's Billionaires and Bridesmaids series. I think readers who may be new to this series can still enjoy THE BILLIONAIRE TAKES A BRIDE. However, reading BEAUTY AND THE BILLIONAIRE first might be good for some context since the wedding festivities that serve as a backdrop to this series are for the couple from BEAUTY AND THE BILLIONAIRE. I am a huge Jessica Clare fan and THE BILLIONAIRE TAKES A BRIDE is an example of why.
THE BILLIONAIRE TAKES A BRIDE has my favorite type of marriage of convenience -- one in which the two parties actually like each other before tying the knot. Sebastian Cabral and Chelsea Hall's first one-on-one meeting is quirky, charming and sets the tone for their unconventional romance. Although the reason for them marrying in haste is a little convoluted, the friendship and eventual romance between Sebastian and Chelsea is sexy and sweet. I love how Chelsea supports Sebastian when he has to deal with his whacky reality TV-obsessed family, and he helps her with her trust issues.
I like that THE BILLIONAIRE TAKES A BRIDE is told from two perspectives. Both characters are very likable yet complex. I love this Billionaires and Bridesmaids series, but THE BILLIONAIRE TAKES A BRIDE is my favorite so far. Sebastian is the ideal sexy yet sensitive hero who adores the heroine and falls for her fast. I like that he respects Chelsea, likes her personality and encourages her. The gradual way their feelings for each other build, make their happy ending more powerful and satisfying to read about. I love how Sebastian fights for Chelsea and acts as protector.
THE BILLIONAIRE TAKES A BRIDE is delightfully racy and entertaining from beginning to end. Sebastian and Chelsea are a perfect match and their love story abounds with tender moments and wildly erotic ones. Chelsea is an interesting combination of vulnerability and strength. THE BILLIONAIRE TAKES A BRIDE is a must-read for contemporary romance fans. I eagerly await the next book by Jessica Clare.

So when their mutual friends’ upcoming wedding turns Chelsea and Sebastian into fast friends, they realize they can solve both of their problems with one life- changing lie: a quick trip down the aisle.
