RELEASE DAY BLITZ REVIEW: The Billionaire's Virgin by Jackie Ashenden

 
Title: The Billionaire's Virgin 
Author: Kackie Ashenden 
Series: Billionaire Fairytales, #1 
Publisher: Swerve 
Publication Date: January 10, 2017 

Synopsis: 
Dark, tortured, and intimidating, these dominant billionaires will steal their innocent heroines’ breath away. Overwhelmed by their desire to control their world, they push their heroines to explore their deepest desires. But even the most unworldly of heroines can unlock these billionaires’ secrets.

Xavier De Santis: Disgraced. Ruinous. Playboy.

The headlines are always shouting about Xavier’s various excesses, and he’s everything they say he is. But now he’s gone too far, and the black sheep of the De Santis family has been ordered to clean up his image. Volunteering at a homeless shelter, he sees a bright light amidst all the bleakness. An angel whose luminous face and tragic beauty call to him in ways he can’t explain.

Mia: Vulnerable. Homeless. Virgin.

When the shelter Mia calls home closes, she is left with nowhere to go – nowhere except for the luxurious, glorious palace of a home that Xavier De Santis has invited her to stay. This too-handsome billionaire is dark, dangerous – and also too good to be true. But surely Mia can indulge in her fantasies and escape the drudges of her daily life for just one night?

As one night turns into two, Mia knows that eventually, the magic will end and she will have to return to her life of hardship. She can’t keep the beautiful clothes. She can’t keep the soft bed. And most of all, she can’t keep the hard, handsome, brutal man who makes her crave his touch with every breath she takes. Mia doesn’t belong in his world. But as Xavier tempts his rags-to-riches heroine with exquisite pleasure and heady desire, Mia doesn’t stand a chance but to surrender completely to him.

Sonja's Review


So, this is a new author to me and I was really impressed... don't let the title fool you. This isn't your average-run-of-the-mill Billionaire and Virgin book. This is about a very strong-willed homeless girl and the privileged man that has the power to change her life.

I really enjoyed reading about Mia and Xander... they really were perfect for each other. They both had their own demons they were battling, but they managed to overcome the odds to be together. 

Mia was not a trusting person but she was determined to find a way to make a life for herself and I loved that about her. I also loved how Xavier basically swept her off her feet and made it clear he was going to keep her. Even though he needed to be knocked over the head at one point, it all ended up perfectly!

The Billionaire's Virgin is two of my favorite things when it comes to what I read and that is that it's a very safe read and that I get my HEA ending. So, you can bet that I will be looking forward to more books by Jackie Ashenden.

About the Author: 
Jackie has been writing fiction since she was eleven years old. Mild mannered fantasy/SF/pseudo-literary writer by day, obsessive romance writer by night, she used to balance her writing with the more serious job of librarianship until a chance meeting with another romance writer prompted her to throw off the shackles of her day job and devote herself to the true love of her heart – writing romance. She particularly likes to write dark, emotional stories with alpha heroes who’ve just got the world to their liking only to have it blown wide apart by their kick-ass heroines.

She lives in Auckland, New Zealand with her husband, the inimitable Dr Jax, two kids, two cats and some guppies (possibly dead guppies by the time you read this). When she’s not torturing alpha males and their stroppy heroines, she can be found drinking chocolate martinis, reading anything she can lay her hands on, posting random crap on her blog, or being forced to go mountain biking with her husband.
