The Billionaire and I (Jenny and Cole's Story Book 1) Kindle Edition

by Leigh James (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.4 out of 5 stars 341 ratings
"Pretty Woman, but Make it Smutty!" ~ Amazon Review

Rule Number One: Remember it's fake.

I come from nothing. I'm no one. Then billionaire Cole Bryson hires me as his fake date. The keyword here is FAKE. But I’m getting in too deep with the handsome, muscular, sexy billionaire who claims he doesn't do relationships.

That's fine by me. I don't do relationships, either.

Except... Cole's different. He makes me feel things I shouldn't feel. I connect with him in a way I haven't ever connected with anyone. He makes me feel beautiful, sexy, smart... Worthy. Like I might belong in his world. Which is a dangerous thing for a girl like me.

So I made a rookie mistake. I fell for him.

I know better—I can’t risk my heart in this billionaire’s game. When his father finds out I'm an escort, he threatens Cole's empire. And then my secret past comes back to haunt me.

Like I said, I knew better. The billionaire hired me as his fake date. The keyword here is FAKE.

So why does it feel so...real?

Author's Note:
Book 1 of 2. Cliffhanger alert! Guaranteed HEA at the end of the end of Book 2, but until then...buckle up!
If you loved Jenny and Cole from Escorting the Billionaire, you will love this book! And you can absolutely read it as a standalone series. Enjoy!

Book two can't come soon enough.
Jenny and Cole are a match made in escort heaven. After reading about James and Audrey, I was excited to find out that Jenny and Cole were geting their story, too. I look forward to the next installment of Cole and Jenny's story.

    Cole is a billionaire who doesn’t do real relationships. Jenny is a high end hooker that has been keeping her head above water to pay her bills. When Cole reaches out to the agency for a hooker to be a fake girlfriend for two weeks he never even thought about falling for her. Jenny is fun, real, caring and all around a wonderful woman that Cole is truly enjoying. They go to a rehearsal dinner and wedding and honeymoon getaway with the family. They are have a great time being together and falling for each other but Jenny isn’t really sharing anything about her past and is hiding things. She runs to protect Cole and herself.

    4.0 out of 5 stars cliffhanger
    Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2024

    This was different than the normal fake date trope books I usually read. Cole is a billionaire and is recommended an escort service by his best friend James. James was matched with Audrey and is falling for her so Cole decides it would help him through upcoming events he has including the wedding of James’s brother. He is matched with Jenny who is Audrey’s best friend & coworker. Jenny is hoping that Cole will “buy” her and she could leave the agency. She tries to stop falling for him but outside forces threaten them, to destroy them. This is the first of a trilogy and was shocked to be left on a cliffhanger and am anxiously awaiting the next in the series!

    I liked Jenny in James and Audrey's story, I'm glad she and Cole got theirs as well. I didn't like the cliffhanger though, but I will wait until the next book comes out to find out what happens next for this couple. I was a good read though read it in 2 days.

    This was such a fun read without any exceptions and hopes I dived into this one. I knew this was a Triology but now will have to wait for the next book because of the cliffhanger. You can read this book if you need a break from the common reads with the setting of Pretty Girl.

    “Cole Bryson was a job—one that I enjoyed—but nothing more.”

    The Billionaire and I was a good and easy read… with a cliffhanger!

    Cole is a rich, ruthless and alpha male! He is a womaniser and has zero intention to settle.

    When his friend James let him know that “his girlfriend” is actually an escort, Cole decides to hire one for a fortnight to go to the wedding with him.
    Jenny is sassy, full of life and real. She struggles to pay her bills and becoming her escort was her only option to care for her brother.

    Together, they will make you laugh out loud, swoon and some scenes are H.O.T
    They instantly clicked ( I was not a big fan of this) Cole was fascinated by her- by the way she looks, she acts and speaks .

    Fake dating will soon become a problem… people are not a fan of the new couple… neighbours are nosy…

    Do they have a future together? Will he buy out Jenny?

    Special shout out to Shirley! I love her!
