The Millionaire's Revenge Contract
Maddie Russell is a mile past desperate. She’s newly fired, broke, and needs money to help her still-healing sister. Her plan is to beg for her job back—until she realizes millionaire Cole Mitchell, the man who was once the bad boy from the wrong side of the tracks, is the one responsible for taking everything her family owned.
Now she has a new plan. One that’s sure to please them both…and quench the fire that still burns between them. In exchange for his help, she'll become his mistress.
Cole doesn’t trust the Russell family, least of all Maddie. When he was a teenager, her grandfather framed him for a crime he didn’t commit. The only thing he wants from her is his revenge. But the spark between them won't be denied. As their lives tangle together, Cole quickly discovers falling for the enemy will cost him more than he imagined.
Because revenge demands its own price...

3.5 stars
Cole y Maddie met each other a long time ago. But they don't know it yet. She comes from a very rich family. He was a poor boy who was always in trouble.
But now things have changed. Cole is a millionaire who wants to buy Maddie's family hotel just because he wants revenge. He went to a juvenile facility because Maddie's granfather accused him of something he hadn't done. Or that's what he says.
Maddie is not willing to let him win. She wants to protect her granfather. The problem is that she has always had a crush on Cole. Tbat's why she accepts the craziest deal ever.
I liked this book. The story is good. And the characters are well built.

Thank you Netgalley for providing this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
I thought Maddie and Cole's story was pretty decent. Cole takes over Maddies grandfather's business in a vengeful quest to avenge the death of his friend and false imprisonment. When he mistakes Maddie for a maid their sexual chemistry is off the charts. Then she proposes to become his mistress in exchange for her job and upfront money she needs to help her ailing family. He accepts but tells her it would be sex only.
I had issues with Cole's character. He initially appears to be an uncaring jerk but throughout the novel his moods and behaviors contradict each other. He says he doesn't want anything to do with Maddie but he seeks her out, asks her about herself and gives in to her desires. His character is to erratic to show real character growth.
I liked Maddie because she is consistently brash and honest. She wants Cole and she goes after him. She's loving and understanding.
Not a bad story, entertaining but nothing earth shattering.

Growing up, she was the kind girl with wealthy parents whilst he was the bad boy from the wrong side of the tracks. How life changes! Her grandfather framed him and his friends for a crime they didn't commit. One of his friends died whilst they were serving time. He's determined to seek revenge and now he's wealthy and powerful enough to do just that. He's taken over her family's hotel and sacked all the family members, including her. However, the attraction which grew between them as teenagers is now an inferno and she's desperate to have the funds to help her sister who is healing after a tragic accident. Can they make a crazy business deal to give them both what they want? Can they resist their attraction? What will happen to the revenge?
This is a hot second chance romance where initial motives have to be reconsidered as the couple get to know each other again. The dreadful history between them is a serious motivator but as he seeks revenge on her grandfather, she is determined to protect the old man. With conflicting motivations, this is a romance with a side helping of revenge, a moving story with great characters and quite a few twists to keep you guessing right to the end.

I loved this book! When I first began reading, it felt very familiar, but as I kept reading, the book became something unique and engaging. I found myself engrossed in Maddie and Cole's difficult pasts and their, somewhat enemies to lovers tale.
Cole is the boy who was done wrong by Maddie's family with tragic results. He has dedicated his entire adult life to success and then the vengeance that fueled that drive to succeed. When Cole and Maddie meet again as adults, they don't recognize each other and are immediately smitten. Once they learn who the other is, they enter an odd contract. While the results are predictable, they're told in an engaging way that kept me hooked until the very last page.
Put this one on your TBR list. The author is on my must read authors' list.

This is book 3 and the final book in a series about three millionaires who met in juvie and are seeking revenge against those who put them there. It's been a long time coming with the books published in 2015, 2017, now this in late 2018. I haven’t read the 2nd but didn't feel it took from the story. Although I didn't realize at first it was this particular series, I was excited. I really enjoyed the first.
It didn't fully work for me as I didn't click with either character. Maddie was very forward and came on strong. Cole was a little all over the place for me and was hot/cold. Their familiarity with each other became so... familiar less than 5 minutes after meeting. Her proposal to be his “mistress” had no buildup and was abrupt. Although I didn’t feel the connection between them, I did enjoy the drama and dips and turns the storyline took. I also liked the interaction and connection between him and the other 2 men from the previous stories.

I really liked the idea of this story. Cole was wronged by Maddie’s grandfather and his need for revenge has driven him to become a successful businessman. Exacting his revenge starts with taking over Maddie’s family’s hotel. At first, Maddie is collateral damage. But the more time that Cole spends with Maddie, the more he comes to care about her.
I liked the main characters of Cole and Maddie. They were both complex and yet likeable. You can’t help but root for them to find their happily ever after. Some of the dialogue was really cheesy though. Soon after meeting, Cole and Maddie go for coffee. She basically announces, “I’ll take a latte and I think the missionary position is boring.” I’m exaggerating a little but that is the basic gist of the conversation.
While I liked the overall direction of the book, the plot fell apart for me at times. It was a little like having a puzzle. You know what the puzzle is supposed to look like but you can’t quite pull everything together. Some puzzle pieces are missing and some pieces that are from a totally different puzzle. And some pieces fit but you kind of have to force them together.

Millionaire Cole Mitchell is a man on a mission, he was wronged in the past and at the time he didn't have the means to prove his innocence, but now he does, and he will stop at nothing to clear his name. The Russell family matriarch Sam, accused him and his friends of committing a crime years ago, and because they were all boys from the wrong side of town, no one even batted an eye at the accusation. Since the fateful day Cole has dedicated every minute of his life to not only becoming something better than the boy from the wrong side of the tracks, but also devising a plan to exact revenge on the man who uprooted his young life.
He has his sights set on taking down the Russell family piece by piece, and nothing is going to get in his way... that is until an unexpected piece of his past comes back into his view!
Revenge has never been sweeter... or sexier! The Millionaire's Revenge is sultry little page turner that is certain to have romance readers raving!! This one had me flying through the pages, the drama and chemistry floating around between these two kept things engaging and hot! The writing was well paced, the characters were vividly drawn, and the words came with loads of feeling and steam... a win in my book! Highly recommend this one, it's an enemies to lovers story that is certain to check all the boxes!

They say opposites attract but when one wants revenge against the family that did them wrong that's more important. At least it is for Cole Mitchell.
Being fired from her job is a big deal for Maddie Russell since she needs her job to take care of family. Determined to beg for her job back, Maddie knows it's not going to be easy, especially when Cole Mitchell is the man she has to convince.
The way this story opened was a mix of feeling sorry for the heroine then fun because of the way the hero and heroine meet. There's instant chemistry between Maddie and Cole and their interactions definitely show that, despite Cole having such disdain for Maddie's family, especially her grandfather after what he did to Cole years ago.
I really liked both Maddie and Cole. They're both strong characters that want things their way. Cole's need for revenge drives him while Maddie's need to help people drives her. Neither have time for anything else and yet this pair are so drawn to each other.
Overall, Ms. Weiss has delivered a good revenge trope themed story in this where every interaction between the pair built plenty of chemistry. Cole is a decent man that eventually realizes revenge is sweet but love is sweeter and I liked how he did come to the conclusion. Maddie makes him want to be a better man and shows him that together they can move forward from the past. Furthermore, the epilogue wrapped this story up nicely and had me cheering for this couple.

What can you do when all your best-laid plans for revenge somehow blow up in your face? Well, you might try to NOT fall for your enemy - and if you are really lucky, you might fail spectacularly.
At least that's what Cole, our hero, finds out. The hard way. Falling all the way and all that and fighting it tooth and nails and...in vain. Falling in love with Maddie is the one thing that he doesn't want but the only thing that he can't fight no matter how hard he tries - and I enjoyed every single page of his fight.
Cole hatred was palpable and understandable but, well, Maddie is far too nice and too sweet for him to hold on to those feelings especially when he realized that she was innocent.
I really loved Maddie. The way she cares for those around her, the love she gives despite her own upbringing, she is amazing - and she shows Cole that no one, not even her grandfather, is just good or just bad but that there are all shades of grey in between. And she shows him that sometimes living your life and loving someone are worth letting go of your hatred.

Maddie has been fired from her job. Her family owned a hotel and it has been bought by a millionaire. She wants to keep her job so she can keep helping her disabled sister. Cole was from the wrong side of town and he and his friends were convicted of a crime they didn’t commit. They were sent to juvie where one of his friends is killed. Now he wants revenge on the man who fingered them for the crime. So he buys his hotel and fires all his family and friends. When he meets Maddie he doesn’t recognize her at first but when he does he tells her he’d never hire her back. Then he comes up with a plan, he drafts a contract in exchange for being his mistress he’ll give her job back and pay her. She agrees but doesn’t expect to fall for him. But when he finds out some things, he thinks she’s been lying to him the whole time and she leaves before the contract is up. Can Cole give up his plans for revenge and keep the one woman he loves?
Great story. Sex, lies, and secrets. A man wanting vengeance and a woman just trying to hold her family together.

I'm reviewing this book a little late but I don't care it was awesome!
Maddie is busy taking care of her family when she sees Cole again, and the only thing he wants is revenge against her grandfather.
What surprised me about this book is how honest and not they were, like they talked about how he wanted revenge and she wouldn't let him and didn't lt their relationship really be affected by it. It was such a weird and cute relationship, both of them wanting to be mean and they just couldn't it was so funny! As soon as they started talking they found out they actually liked each other and I just wanted to cry with happiness.
It was a good book and I wish I had know there were other books before reading this one but I don't regret reading it, it was amazing and I can't wait for another story (maybe Dani's?)

This is a story of revenge, love, and second chances. Maddie has always tried to help everyone even at her own expense. When people look at her they see her families money but what they don't see is the real story.
Cole lost everything when he and his friends were sent to Juvie for something they didnt do. A child from the wrong side of the tracks to a millionaire bent on revenge. When everything lines up for his revenge.. there is only one problem. Maddie. Will they survive the hurt and lies?

Driven by Revenge.
His grief and guilt over his friend’s death has solidified into a deep hatred of Samuel Russell whose testimony sent him and his friends to juvie for a crime they didn’t commit. His focus for years has been that of revenge and utter destruction of everything the man cares about and Samuel’s granddaughter is not going to sway him from his purpose. A good story; I loved how Cole was at heart a caring man and how in the end, he and Maddie got their HEA.

Maddie is a sweet and upbeat young lady even in the face of all that is going wrong in her life. Cole is hellbent on revenge. Maddie has been secretly in love with Cole since she was a child and when they meet again she believes it is her chance to finally get to know him better. There are huge obstacles in the way that they have to tackle. While they are doing so they are intensely burning up the sheets at every opportunity. Love survives, problems are solved and happily ever after is achieved.

Really enjoyed this one. It's sort of an enemies to lovers story. It's a little different because who Cole hates is actually the Russell family. Specifically, Maddie's grandfather. Maddie just happens to be caught up in Cole's revenge plot. These characters are incredible and the conflict they felt jumped from the pages. Their attraction to each other could have felt forced but the author did a great job making it feel believable and real. Overall it's a very enjoyable story and one you shouldn't miss. I recommend it..

Revenge thwarted by love is the theme that runs through this story. Though missing a few pieces, Cole & Maddie's story kept me engaged and curious, waiting to see what would happen next. I liked that there was no complicated level of subterfuge and secrets.
I recommend that the books in the Seduced by Love series be read in order. As mentioned before, there are parts of the story that are missing, which I believe can be found in books 1 & 2. In spite of this, I enjoyed this sweet romance.
I voluntarily read & reviewed an ARC of this book, received via NetGalley & Entangled.

Cole is out for revenge on Maddie’s family since her grandfather set up Cole and his friends for a crime. While in juvy, one of Cole’s friends is killed. When Maddie loses her job due to Cole’s revenge, she begs for another chance so she can continue to take care of her disabled sister. Cole comes up with another plan, but they don’t expect the hot sparks that ignite between the two of them. I enjoyed the complexities in this story and how Cole and Maddie figured out a way to be together.
May 13, 2020
The plotline of The Millionaire's Revenge Contract had all the elements that I enjoy: enemies to lovers, revenge story, high emotional stakes for the romance... But the actual story was kind of lacking. Everything happened at such a fast and unbelievable pace and there were plenty of OTT moments, too...the most glaring example being the big stupid misunderstanding (on the H's part) towards the end.
Still, it's a passable read.

Cole was once framed by Maddie’s grandfather for a crime he didn’t commit and now Maddie is desperate for his help. Maddie offers Cole a deal he can’t refuse but will he seek his revenge or will their chemistry spark something else. Fast-paced read with lots of drama and plenty of steam. I liked the characters and the story is entertaining. A good read.
October 21, 2018
I liked when Cole was carefree, “I’m going to amaze you with my… intellect.” He lifted her up , tossed her over his shoulder, and walked into his bedroom. Maddie laughed and hit his shoulder. He slapped her firmly rounded bottom lightly..." I liked this book, I liked Cole.

He didn’t trust her family after everything that had happened. Unwilling to leave the past behind he sets out to exact his revenge and finds the perfect person to help him. He would make them pay and finally feel at peace. You would think that would be the end but it was only the beginning.

This was an enjoyable story. That grabbed me from the very beginning thanks to the two main characters, Cole and Maddie and an interesting first introduction to the pair.
Plus, it had a nice enemies to lovers vibe to it and there was plenty to hold my interest throughout. Not to mention a little angst and drama. As well as chemistry and a couple of hot moments, and I would certainly recommend it to others.

What Goodreads and the cover didn't tell me is that this book is a part of a series and some part of the plot is continued from the previous two, so this book is not a complete stand-alone book and you can understand that while reading the book. The book overall was meh for me and the blame is not entirely on the connection to the other books. I wasn't a fan of the kind of chemistry Cole and Maddie had. They didn't click for me, but I liked them as people. I was expecting a more angsty book considering the contract and the past, but I didn't get that. I really liked the plot about Maddie's grandpa framing Cole and his friend and I think that it was the best part of the book. The Millionaire's Revenge Contract is the final book in the series and I recommend reading it as such.

3.5*
Twists in a conventional plot line.
Maddie is devoted to her family and feels responsible for her sister and nephew. She’s been supporting them by working in the family owned hotel. Fortunes change and now Maddie is freshly fired and broke. Her sister’s trust fund has disappeared with her grandfather who’s responsible for Cole’s false imprisonment. Now all Cole wants is revenge. But he hasn’t counted on his deep attraction to Maddie which combusts each time they’re together. Maddie is likeable while Cole cannot quite carry through with his vengeful intentions. He’s inconsistent and incomprehensible when he suddenly decides to forgive transgressions. The tropes here are nothing new but Weiss manages to add surprising twists that made me want to continue reading.

I like a good revenge as much as the next person. People usually get hurt in the process. That's when you start to question everything. Maddie and Cole's story made me happy, sad, mad and confused sometimes in the same chapter. Wonderful!

This book exceeded my expectations. Honestly I went in thinking that Cole was going to be a major @ss, especially because the blurb has that Maddie is his mistress and I thought he was going to take advantage but each time its Maddie who seduces him. He is very reluctant to admit he is falling for Maddie but that just makes for a more interesting story.
