Baby for the Billionaire
A Reverse Harem Romance
A billionaire, his two closest friends, and the offer of a lifetime.
I signed up to be a surrogate to earn some extra cash. I never thought I'd be hired by someone like him.
Single.
Swoony.
A billionaire playboy.
At twenty-eight, Pierce Benning is the youngest self-made billionaire in the world. Tall, dark, and with more irresistible charm than money can buy. But there’s just one sultry catch to his surrogacy. He wants the child to be conceived naturally.
Pierce’s two closest confidants are also involved to a surprising degree. Andrew Foster, the boyishly-handsome valet who sees to my every need and eventually becomes my best friend on the yacht. Tristan Lowe, Pierce’s English personal assistant whose careful touch and rare compliments ignite new curiosities inside of me.
When I find out how the two of them play into this whole surrogacy thing? It changes how I think about everything.
As the months drag on, will I eventually fulfill my contract and conceive this billionaire’s child? Or will this unorthodox agreement blow up in our faces?

Very good escapist reverse-harem romance!

Romance: 🖤💙🩷💚

Narration Type: Dual Narration
The heroine: Melinda Norris - she got fired from a job where she had done most of the work, right before her shares would have vested. She decided to become a surrogate parent to make extra money to start her own digital marketing company and put her old bosses out of business. She did not know much about the couple she was meeting but knew that they wanted to use her eggs and she would get more money for that. Though it meant that the baby would be part of her and not just because she carried it.
The Heroes:
Pierce Benning - he is a billionaire bachelor, well known in the city as a playboy and one of the youngest self-made billionaires.
Andrew Foster - he is Mr. Benning’s valet. They had been friends for years. He was laid back and had a calming demeanor.
Tristan Lowe - he is the personal assistant for Mr. Benning; he has a proper English accent and is always well put together. He has known Pierce since they were roommates in college.
The Story: Melinda goes to the address she has to meet the perspective parents and is a bit worried when she sees she is parked in front of a warehouse by the docks. She meets Andrew, who seems likable, so she follows him to the helicopter that would take them to the yacht. She had to sign a non-disclosure agreement right away after meeting Mr. Benning’s assistant. After that she finally met Pierce, and she wasn’t impressed since he reminded her of her former bosses, the two Bob’s.
Melinda reads the surrogacy contract and was pleasantly surprised at how much she would be paid but was a bit wary when Pierce let it be known that he had gotten her information from the surrogacy company before she had even finalized her enrollment. She was even more surprised when he told her about a second contract, a more unorthodox contract, in which he detailed how he wanted to make a baby the old-fashioned way.
Pierce was wary of a failed surrogacy, he said he doesn’t want his child’s life to begin artificially. Though after Pierce told her the many reasons he wanted her to be his surrogate, including the fact that she graduated from Brown, played a bunch of sports in high school, and her health background, not to mention the amount of money he was willing to pay, she reluctantly agreed.
I liked the escapism of this one. I mean who wouldn’t want to spend six months on a mega yacht, traveling to exotic places like a private island, trying to get pregnant by one of three handsome men. If only there wasn’t a contract to give up your own flesh and blood at the end of it. Though this is a romance novel so I was pretty safe in assuming that wouldn’t happen. One thing I didn’t like about this book was that when Melinda took Pierce to her sister’s wedding, she upstaged the bride quite a bit without thinking. She blamed it on the fact that being around all that money had changed her. I think that it was just a matter of doing something without thinking, not that she had changed. And what Pierce did afterwards nearly ruined the book for me. I was planning on giving this book 5 stars until then. Though of course, it still turned out all right.
I love that Cassie Cole’s books are stand-alone’s. I loved in this book where Andrew and Melinda read each other’s favorite books and Melinda’s is ACOTAR and he didn’t like it. He thought the sex was way too graphic for a book that is touted as for young adults. When Melinda says it gets better in the next book, he goes on about why everything has to be a series nowadays, why can’t a book just be a book? I say that same thing all the time, so I loved it.
This audiobook was told in multiple points of view and narrated in dual narration by Ramona Radcliffe and Julio Maxwell. Ramona Radcliffe has a nice voice and is very expressive. She also sounds about the age Melinda would be. Julio Maxwell has a decent voice, though I like a deeper voice for my romantic heroes. He does an awful accent for Andrew. I was not sure if it was supposed to be an English accent or just a haughty wealthy person accent. Either way, if he had used that accent for all three men, I might have stopped listening right away, but I got used to it and it stopped bothering me after a bit.

This was a really sweet reverse harem romance. The storyline was great and the sex scenes were not overly done. The bridezilla sister part could have been left out (I didn’t agree with her assumptions) and it took the sweetness out of the storyline. But overall I really enjoyed the book.

I need to find me a Billionaire…
Well… it’s hard not to fall in love with Billionaire Piece Benning. The man has everything… and I mean everything… going for him. Billionaire - check! Good looking - check! Amazing body - check! Good between the sheets - check! Intelligence - check! Gorgeous friends more than happy to become surrogate fathers and part of a reverse harem - check and check!!
There is literally nothing not to like about Pierce. Not only is he all-of-the-above, but he’s also kind, caring, considerate, compassionate, generous, gentle, loving, understanding, sweet… the lost of his attributes goes on and one and on. No wonder his selected surrogate, Melinda struggles to resist him. And then there’s his friends…
Andrew is just as wonderful as his boss, Pierce except without the power, status and overwhelming wealth. He may not be a Billionaire but he’s such an incredible person that what he lacks in wealth, he makes up for in personality. I love him almost as much as pierce.
So what about Tristan. I have to admit, he’s a little harder to love at first due to him being more aloof and standoffish. He’s a little harder less relaxed and sometimes a little stuck up, but as he gradually allows himself to get to know Melinda better and relax his British stiff upper lip… he too becomes utterly adorable. Especially at the end when he reveals himself to be a big softy.
As for our female main character… she’s strong, stubborn and knows her own mind. She thrives on honesty and integrity and isn’t afraid to challenge others if she feels it’s necessary. That’s why all three men fall at her feet. She may be completely ‘normal’ in her own mind, yet she has these three gorgeous men practically eating out the palm of her hand.
The premise of the story is great and it’s real well written. I could easily identify with the main characters and I became totally immersed in their world. It’s a lovely easy read that doesn’t require too much effort. Just sit back and let yourself be lost it Pierce Benning’s beautiful Billionaire world.

This could have been 4 stars BUT the word billionaire had to have been said atleast 100 times. The story is great, the men are great. Melinda, however, just couldn't shut up about Pierce being a billionaire. By the time I got threw 43% of the book I was so frustrated with it that I almost threw it across the room and DNF. I did finish though. I wish I could say it was worth it but I was so annoyed that they couldn't just talk and act like normal people. Money was brought up on nearly every page, every conversation. It was exhausting.

Melinda & Pierce & Andrew & Tristan
May 12, 2024
After being fired from the company she helped build Melinda was determined to start up her own company but that required a lot of money. Needing money she decided to become a surrogate & was immediately matched to somebody so arranged to meet them to see if both sides were agreeable but when she was whisked away by helicopter by the clients associate to a yacht she was nervous. She assumed that she was going to be surrogate for a couple only to find it was a single man. Pierce Benning was obviously wealthy but when he presented her with the IVF contract she was gobsmacked at the amount of money he would pay her but then there was another contract offering her even more money to get pregnant the old fashioned way which shocked her even more. Not knowing if the contract was on the level she called her lawyer to look over it & she confirmed it was telling g that if it was offered to her she'd jump at the chance to be with Pierce Benning.
Melinda had no idea who this man was but he seemed to be a big deal.
She agreed to the contract but had no idea how it would play out but to start with she seemed to be spending more time with his friends/employees Andrew & Tristan as if he wasn't interest in her.
This story has you laughing at the banter between them but blushing when things start getting hit & steamy.
This is a great story that once you start reading you'll be hooked & struggle to put it down.

If Pierce, Andrew and Tristan were real, I, too, would sign up to be a surrogate!
If Pierce, Andrew, and Tristan were real, I, too, would sign up to be a surrogate! Author Cassie Cole has a way about creating the most perfect combination of delectable men. When Melinda signed up to become a surrogate, she thought she would be making another couple's dream of having a family come true. In reality, she was specially chosen by a billionaire due to her intelligence, athleticism, and beauty. She was the perfect woman to provide an egg and carry his future offspring.
Can Melinda get past Pierce's lavish lifestyle to see him for the down to earth man that he really is? Will his employees and friends, Andrew and Tristan, help Pierce win over Melinda's heart to see that a life with them is worth risking everything for?
The characters in this book are all extremely likeable. They have charisma, humility, and are genuinely good people. They are the type of people I would want in my circle of closest family members. Add is flammable sexual chemistry and traipsing around the globe in a mega yacht, and reading this book was a true departure from reality. Every paged turned left me feeling like I was on vacation. A definite must read!

Baby for the Billionaire by Cassie Cole is a reverse harem romance involving Melinda Norris, Pierce Benning, Andrew Foster, and Tristan Lowe. These three men are long-time friends and rich. Pierce decides he wants a family and is searching for the perfect surrogate. He finds her in Melinda. Melinda has trust issues after a recently betrayal from her business partners. Now that she is entering a contract with Benning, she is cautious. Pierce is nontraditional and is open to sharing Melinda in a polyamorous relationship. How will Miranda react to this? Will there be jealousy amongst these three friends? How does Miranda’s family act to her new adventure? To find out, you must read this book.
Ms. Cole does an outstanding job with characterization, dialog (both internal monologues and conversational), and descriptive language. For some the sex scenes may be a bit raunchy, however, Ms. Cole portrays them respectfully. I appreciate how she captures Melinda’s relationship with each of her three alpha men revealing how they all begin to fall in love with her. The banter between the four lead characters is amusing.

Melinda Norris was fired after helping New England Digital Marketing get off the ground. The two founding partners, Robert Ethier and Robert Beschloss fired her one week before her shares in the company vested. Two weeks after being fired, she signs up to be a surrogate and is matched with Pierce Benning so she heads to Providence, Rhode Island. She is planning on using the money to start her own digital marketing company and put the “Bobs” out of business.
Andrew meets Melinda and takes her to a helicopter. They fly to meet Pierce and his personal assistant, Tristan Lowe. The helicopter lands on Pierce’s yacht, The Bellerophon.
Pierce offers Melinda the standard surrogate contract and a not so standard contract. Melinda reads both and sends them to her lawyer to go over them.
It was interesting to find out which contract Melinda chose. The dynamic between the four main characters was interesting too. I thoroughly enjoyed this story.

I’ve read numerous Cassie Cole’s books and have enjoyed every one of them. I was hesitant to read the Baby for the Billionaire only because I usually don’t like books with secret babies or fake dating storylines. However, this book was totally different and I’m glad I read it.
Baby for the Billionaire has just enough story with equal amounts of sexy scenes. That’s one of the reasons I enjoy Cassie’s books, there’s a real story it’s not just page after page of sex scenes. You get to know each of the characters and their back stories, so you feel a connection to each of them. The adventures as they go around the world were exciting and kept my interest too. Eventually there is a very happy ending for the four of them, once they shared their feelings for one another.
Cassie Cole is a very talented writer, and this book is now one of my favorites she’s written. I highly recommend it if you enjoy reading how the super-rich and powerful live this one really delivers.

Even though I found it to be very original, It just felt like it was too clinical all the way up to 80% of the book.
She really was only treated as someone to make a baby.
There was no romance whatsoever. It was all just very like I said clinical.
And I wasn’t really fond of her as a leading lady. And unfortunately, I didn’t really like the guys that much either.
The billionaire came across as a bit of a tool, Andrew just faded in the background, and don’t even get me started on poor Tristan, who’s English came across as that old guy from the Gray Poupon ads on TV back in the day. He sounded like a ridiculous caricature of a British guy.
And then when they finally came together, it was all very rushed, and we did a lot of time jumps which I’m never a fan of.
And don’t even get me started on the epilogue, we’re seriously doing a 20 year jump and that’s all we got?
And the daughter doesn’t even call the other two guys dad?!
And after 20 years, they only had one!?! lame

The agency she is working with matches her to a client who turns out to be Pierce. He is rich, handsome, sexy and wants a child. But he is single with no one special in his life to do that with. So when he is matched with Melinda he is very happy, and ready to do it the old fashioned way. But Pierce also have Andrew, his valet, and Tristan, his assistant in his life.

3.5: Melinda has been fired from her job where she did most of the work and has no one to blame but herself for not drawing up a legal contract when she should have. She decides to take some time off and agrees to be a surrogate for some extra money. She is approached by Pierce who is a billionaire. She sees his lavish lifestyle and his turned off by it. She pre-judged Pierce simply because he spent his wealth on extravagances. When she learns there is more to the man than his money, her opinion changed.
I did not like this one as much as I usually like this author’s books. I felt Melinda had a much deeper connection with Pierce and should have just dated him. I also did not like how she judged him because he was wealthy. Drives me nuts in today’s world when the wealthy are looked down upon especially if they have worked their asses off for what they have.

This was a great billionaire reverse harem romance.
I enjoyed the story and read in one sitting. After loosing her job Melinda decides to be a surrogate and a billionaire chooses her instantly.
He ad his two friends have discussed and agreed to share Melinda if she agrees which she does, I enjoyed the fact all three men were so different yet all fell for Melinda, it was good seeing them form bonds individually and together there was a lot of getting to know each other and then a lot of traveling the world. They travel around on his mega yacht and stay at his private Island, not much drama it all flowed relatively smoothly, what I did find strange and not so believable was giving 95% of his fortune away.
I think the quantity made it unrealistic and therefore unbelievable, but overall I really got into the story.

I didn’t like it at all.
It’s lacks a lot of fictional aspects, settings, emotions, plot in general … this needs a lot of editing if I’m being honest.
So yes, I thought it was poorly put from the emotionally side.
The drama with the parents and the sister was so uncalled for and confusing.
The transitions were confusing at some point from one scene suddenly we’re reading 3 days later, even the smallest gestures or them moving, them sitting, their position wasn’t even conveyed to us properly… like when she came and told them about her dramatic decision … where were they? Again? did she sit? Did she stood awkwardly? And then left??? i was confused what was that for! She is a drama queen MMC.
The only pro was at the beginning, first few chapters, until they both banged each others in the ally, then from there down to the hill.

This was a really good story that I really enjoyed reading about Melinda Norris who offered her services as a surrogate mother and was chosen to be the surrogate for Pierce Benning, who is a billionaire to have his own family, his personal assistant Tristan and Andrew his valet were both a part of the contract if she was willing. Melinda never realise that by signing the contract she would be travelling the world being treated like a princess. I thoroughly enjoyed the storyline and the drama and action that occurred throughout the book, and eventually to the three men being a part of Melinda‘s life, and eventually in the birth of their daughter. There is a happily ever after for all involved.

I really enjoyed this romance! Melinda decides to become a surrogate so that she can earn enough money to start her new business. When she is chose by Billionaire Pierce, he gives her two options on how this surrogacy may go. When Melinda chooses option 2, her life would change. The more time she spends with Pierce, she gets to know his staff Tristan and Andrew. She feels an attraction to all of them, and them to her. She will need to figure out whether she wants to continue in this life and strike out on her own. I found this romance to be very steamy, sweet and so fun to read. The male characters are so swoon-worthy - especially Pierce!.

This story was pretty mediocre for me. I liked Mel at the beggining. She had some fire in her but her character went bland once she started living with the men. The men were okay but nothing special. I felt like the relationship progressed too quickly and we barely got to know anything about the characters and their relationship.
I was dissapointed in Mel and how dense and insensitive she was at Carly's wedding. I felt bad for Carly because none of her family members seemed to be on her side. And their dad's speech really was insensitive. I also didn't like how Mel tried to earn Carly's forgiveness with money.
I also thought it was stupid for Pierce to give away his money especially since that was how he got Mel in the first place.

Love just love anything Cassie Cole and I really enjoyed this book. Read in a couple hours as could not put it down. The FMC, Mel is smart, funny, strong willed, stubborn and not afraid to speak her mind. Pierce is a self made millionaire dreamboat who is actually a genuine guy. Andrew and Tristan both work for Pierce but are actually his good friends as well. Wronged and fired from her job, Mel decides to become a surrogate for money. Little does she know there is more to this surrogacy than meets the eyes. An adventure of a lifetime. Full of great character building, sexy steam and a HEA.

Overall I liked the story. There’s a fine line between surrogate and prostitution, and this one might have gotten close. Melinda lost her job and needs cash, so she applies to be a surrogate. Pierce wants an heir, and he thinks Melinda is perfect. He also doesn’t care if the baby is his or one of his 2 best friends. Andrew is smitten with Melinda from the start. Tristan isn’t as sure. Melinda is smart, sassy and sexy, and she speaks her mind. It doesn’t take long for her to fall
for Pierce or his friends. Can she give Pierce what he wants without losing herself along the way? Great storyline. Very likable that characters. Hot sexy times.

Melinda's story is a fast paced steamy reverse harem romance. Melinda is hired to be a surrogate for Pierce. He wants a child and has decided that surrogacy is the way to go. He's a billionaire and knows all to well that money changes how a lot of people see him. Melinda doesn't know who he is at first but has a lot of preconceived notions about him and all the money he has but that starts to change as she gets to know him and his two best friends Andrew and Tristan. Melinda starts falling for Pierce, Andrew, and Tristen but can she make it work without it change who she is.

Melinda is the woman Pierce picks to be the surrogate for him. However, Melinda ends up being involved with not just Pierce but his friends Andrew and Tristan as well. There's a loophole in the contract and it doesn't matter which man gets her pregnant. Its not long before some very real feelings get involved between the four of them. Will this turn into something more between them?
This is a great story that will draw you in from the first chapter on. This is a well written and very entertaining story. Its a book that any book lover would enjoy.

In this book we meet Melinda Norris, Andrew Foster, Pierce Benning, & Tristan Lowe. Melinda is tired of her life and has decided to become a surrogate. Though her mother believes her daughter is going to have something horrible happen to her there is nothing she can do to talk her out of it. Andrew, Pierce, & Tristan all want a baby but none of them can do it through the traditional methods. So they have gone through an agency. Can they all find a HEA or will it be some fun for them all?
Another amazing story by this author. I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Melinda has lost her job and in order to supplement her income until she can get her marketing company off the ground she signs up to be a surrogate. Pierce is a young billionaire that has decided its time for a family. His two best friends, Tristin, his PA, and Andrew, his valet, are his biggest supporters. As the four of them travel together, things get steamy when Melina elects to become a surrogate the "natural" way. This is a steamy, RH romance with three friends and the women they fall for.

Group effort 5 stars. - Looking for something steamy to read? Try this book and author. I like the progress of Melinda's relationship with the three men. It wasn’t hurried. Tristan and Andrew work for Pierce who owns the superyacht and the helicopter. The book has a point with what happened at the wedding. Melinda’s thoughts on how she changed and what changed her makes sense. Her thoughts were realistic amidst the over the top surroundings. I received an advanced copy and voluntarily chose to review it.

From Baby Mama to a Future
When Melinda decides to become a surrogate, she gets more - way more - than she bargained for. First, Pierce is not as she initially pegged him. Next, Tristan starts as an antagonist but ends up being more fun once he loosens up. And Andrew, well he’s cute and fun and she is quite attracted. Then, there’s the unconventional contract… I enjoyed this unconventional romance. Yes, there’s a third act breakup, but it’s worth it, and the grovel is top-shelf. Steamy-delicious and romantic, this was a great read.

She decides to become a surrogate but is surprised when there is no Mrs. and just a Mr and he wants to do things the old fashioned way. Pierce is a billionaire and has two friends who work along side him, Andrew and Tristan. Things get steamy and they all agree to try to make this relationship work. There are misunderstandings and spicy moments but this group finds their happily ever after.

the number of times the word "billionaire" is being mentioned felt like the author thinks her readers are bloody stupid and doesn't know what a billionaire means. then i felt that the surrogacy plot just kind of fell towards the afterthought because the other things seems to take a more forefront, like changing from 1 man to 3 men, then the hoo-ha with the heroine sister's wedding. then end up, the saga was routed back to the guy having money, and this money changed the heroine. don't get it... i think the execution needs some work.

I Love Cassie Cole!
And I love her stories! I haven't read her in quite some time, but B for the B brought it all back to me. There's such meat (pun intended) to her books. The first book I read of hers was The Study Group, and it is a zinger, too.
Melinda and her three guys, start slow in their relationship, but the story never lags. I was pulled in from the first page, just the way I like it. Cassie's stories are not only about the kink. There's substance and always a happy ending!

Another winner for Cassie Cole!
Melinda decides to become a surrogate for Pierce with the intention of using the money to open her own company and put her previous bosses out of business. She didn't count on Pierce's best friends, Tristan and Andrew, to take part in the endeavour.
There was enough of the feels and a story that kept things moving at a good pace that hooked me and kept my attention all the way through to a very satisfying end!.
