I’m Cassidy Delany.
Bright new shiny MD. So how do I celebrate? I let myself go crazy with the
hottest man I’ve ever seen. Piercing blue-gray eyes with a ripped chest and
six-pack abs I could lick for a lifetime. The two of us together equals a
nuclear explosion. Too bad Daniel is an arrogant billionaire prick who thinks
he can just take what he wants. Sorry, buddy, but with four orphaned siblings
to take care of, I don’t have the time.
Daniel Sheffield,
MD. I do women; I don’t do relationships. And I always get what I
want. I knew Cassidy Delany would be an amazing one-night stand with
that luscious body and her smart and sassy mouth. She makes me want to buy an
island where I can have her 24/7 until I get her out of my system.
But I’ll never tell Cassidy she just might be the best time I ever had—in
and out of bed. She may think she walked out on me, but I’m getting her back
with surgical precision. As always, this will end on my terms.
Why Hate the Billionaire? (The Delanys Book I)
Cassidy Delany is resigned to a life of responsibility,
hard work, and sacrifice as she struggles to support her orphaned family. She
never indulges her passions so that her younger siblings can have the freedom
to follow all of theirs. That is, until she encounters Daniel, a sublimely
gorgeous—and arrogant—billionaire. Overwhelming mutual lust leads her to agree
to a one-night stand that morphs into a fantasy weekend full of mind-blowing
sex. When he acts like Cassidy is just another woman who exists for his
pleasure, she runs away, hoping to never see him again. But when Daniel
reappears and turns everything upside down, Cassidy knows that their
unquenchable passion and the disturbing emotions it evokes, could destroy
everything she’s fought so hard to achieve.
Daniel Sheffield, MD, is a typical spoiled, Beacon Hill Adonis from a Boston
Brahmin family with trillions of dollars, and always gets whatever—and
whoever—he wants. But the delectable and brilliant Cassidy Delany is something
he’s never encountered before: a woman who sees something worth wanting beyond
his money, power, and sex appeal. One taste and what he thought was just an
insatiable desire for her body becomes a need for much more. But he’s shocked
to discover that getting the girl can destroy what he values most—control.
REVIEW:
I give Why Hate the Billionaire a solid three stars. This was a quick read for me. It's fast-paced and full of sexiness! I didn't connect well with Cassidy, I'm not sure why but I didn't like her as much as I think I should have. The chemistry between her and Daniel though, is off the charts. You can tell immediately how attracted they are to each other.
True to the book's name, why hate a billionaire that sexy? It's really hard to hate him even in the moments where he's really being an ass. But I think those tough moments are what made the tender moments so much better. Cassidy and Daniel think they both have life figured out and that the lives they are living are what is best for them. But them getting together changes everything.
Overall the characters were well-written and interesting. I am already marking the next books down my to-be-read list. I want to see what else is in store for the Delany family.
