Billionaire Bad Boys: Rich, Powerful and sexy as hell.
Derek West rose from poverty to take the tech world by storm. He's sexy, confident and gets any woman he wants. And who he wants is Cassie Storm, the rich girl he's never been good enough for.
She's desperate to save her family company and there's only one man who can help. But Derek isn't interested in helping. He wants to possess both the company and the woman he's never been able to forget.
His plan? To screw her out of his head. Except once he's had a taste of Cassie, he doesn't want to let her go. Her family remembers where he came from, and they won't allow it. When the truth about their pasts comes to light, though, it may be Cassie who's going down hard.

My Thoughts:
Derek West grew up having a thing for Cassandra “Cassie”
Storms. You can tell when an author is
good at their craft – can’t stand her father or her brother. Toward the beginning of the story, they treat
her more as an accessory instead of a valuable family member. It shows that being a jerk crosses social
barriers. On the opposite end of the
spectrum, I loved Derek’s friends. They
have his back and don’t mind calling him out either. Cassie isn’t willing to take how the men in
her life treat her sitting down. For me,
her mother seemed mostly absent from her life – the true rich woman lifestyle.
My disappointment came when I realized how quickly this story
moves along. Even though I took breaks
and read slowly, the pages just seemed to move too quickly. I tried but the end kept creeping closer and
closer. But there are two other books
that have come before this one so I can still get my author fix as well as see
what the other bad boys were all about.
And this will pass the time until Going
In Deep comes out.
Ms. Phillips is the perfect adult storyteller. She knows when to create tension, when to
create heat, and just the right moment to take it to the next level. She also has a way of giving her characters
problems but nothing that they can’t handle together. The ending doesn’t give the reader an HEA but
it does sound like it gets you ready for the next book. Something else this author is good at –
teasing her readers.
