Dear Ida,
Never in a million years did I think I’d turn to an advice column for help, but I’m stuck. Moving to New York is my dream come true, but the big city is a tough place to navigate for a small-town, southern girl like me. Luckily, fate sent me my very own knight in shining armor.
Only Whitaker Aldrich didn’t ride in on his white steed to save me. He picked me up on ...more

This was a very sweet and heartwarming romance read!!
Grace 23 y.o. had just moved to New York to follow her dream of becoming a romance writer.
Whit 31 y.o. was a single dad with an amazing 6 y.o. son, Andrew.
Their first couple of encounters happened by accident or by fate. Without knowing they had mutual friends and both of them were invited over for dinner and you can imagine the shock on their faces!!

5 stars!
OMG, I love this book! It’s fun, and flirty with great chemistry, a gorgeous love story, and characters that you cannot help but love. A blissfully romantic and laugh-out-loud funny billionaire/single dad/nanny romance with a twist. I just adored it!
This book is part of the Cocky Hero Club and it’s set in the same world as one of my favourite Vi Keeland / Penelope Ward books, Stuck-Up Suit. Our hero and heroine are friends with Graham and Soraya respectively, and those original character ...more

‘Life was crazy, weird, and sometimes wonderful. I didn’t know if I was ever going to get used to the unusual turn that my life had taken lately. But I was damn sure going to try.’
Bad Boy Billionaire by Amie Knight was a lovely single dad age-gap romance, which we fell in love with right from the start. It was a quick -easy to read- swoon fest with great characters and a sexy and flirty storyline. We loved the friends to lover’s aspect as well as the building heat and ‘will they won’t they’ aspe ...more

I enjoyed reading this book. It was sweet and fast-paced. In a short period Amie Knight still utilized the slow building of the relationship between our main characters. Even though Grace and Whit characters aren't that flesh out they don't materialize as a one-dimensional at least in my opinion.

I love smiling thru a story. I love it when they make me happy. This story made me happy. Whit, Andy and Grace made me happy. I know I keep using the same word LOL but it’s just the exact word for how I felt while reading this story. I don’t like to give plot points away in my reviews, so most of the time I focus on I felt while I read the book. To me, it’s just as important as the mechanics of the story. I story can unfold perfectly with likeable characters, but if you don’t feel something duri ...more

BAD BOY BILLIONARE is a wonderful story of a very different man and woman, but fate had decided that they should be together. Why else in a big city like New York, would they keep meeting up and being thrown together? Grace Abernathy was from a small-town in North Carolina. Her moving to New York had been a dream come true. She had left home and was living in a cramped apartment with two other girls, who unfortunately were chain smokers. Grace needed to find a job fast, before her savings ran ou

I adore Amie Knight’s work and was eager to read her addition to the Cocky Hero Club. As with all the books in the Cocky Hero Club, it’s fine to read the story without any prior knowledge of the world it is set in. Fans of the series will enjoy getting to see the characters, but you do not need prior knowledge to understand.
Especially not with this one. Amie Knight has created a story that grips right away, one that tugs at the heartstrings and has you smiling throughout. I confess, it was a bit ...more

I am such a sucker for a single dad romance novel, and this one was just so dang cute!! This was a really sweet, low angst love story that gave me allllll the feels and kept a permanent smile on my face the entire time I was reading. In essence, this was the perfect read for me right now!
Our heroine Grace is one of the sweetest gals I've ever read. She's recently moved from her small town to the big Apple, and wants to be a romance author, but is staying clear from men due to her own depressing ...more

5 SMOOCHES!
I loved Stuck-Up Suit by Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward, and Amie Knight’s spin on it in Bad Boy Billionaire is a perfect complement to the Cocky Hero World. I’m a huge fan of Amie’s, and while this New York City based series is all Keeland and Ward, it wouldn’t be one of Knight’s novels without a touch of the South. She brought the southern charm to the City with Grace Abernathy, a sweet, sassy North Carolinian transplant. Grace is paired perfectly with Whit Aldrich, a motorcycle ridin ...more

I was super excited to see that Amie was part of the Cocky Hero Club with her book Bad Boy Billionaire. It was a heartwarming, sweet, and sexy read!
New York wasn’t treating Grace very kindly but she was adamant she would make her dreams come true. Her luck started to turn around when she met Whit but would she be able to get past how fast things were going and accept his offer?
Whit was drawn to Grace but he wasn’t sure why. He should be concentrating on his son, but he kept crossing paths with h ...more

This is one of the best additions to the wonderful world of the Cocky Hero Club, I loved everything about Bad Boy Billionaire, the characters were easy to love and relate to and Grace, Whit and Andrew’s story captivated me from the first page to the last line. I fell hard and fast for Whit and his adorable son Andrew but Grace with her kind, caring ways really stole the show as she stepped into the role of housekeeper come nanny come stand in mum.

This story lured me in hook line and sinker. Whit Aldrich is a gorgeous man and he knows it. At first glance you judge him to be a player and a "one night stand" kind of man. Grace is a small town girl who wanted to have a fresh start. New York was the place to be to make her mark as an author.
When Whit and Grace's worlds collide, 3 times, you begin to believe it was fate. Whit rescued her and she became his nanny. She did not ...more

5 Star review of Bad Boy Billionaire (Cocky Hero Club) by Amie Knight
Amie Knight is a relatively new author to me which is something I love about the Cocky Hero Club as there re such a variety of authors and tropes which I have loved discovering.
Fate often works in mysterious ways and this is so true when Whitaker (Whit) and Grace met. Meeting his unexpectedly on a number of occasions, Grace becomes Whit’s son Andy's nanny and so begins a journey that neither of them expected.

Bad Boy Billionaire is the latest romance read in the Cocky Hero Club by Amie Knight, and I LOVED everything about this book.
First of all, this book contains all you could want in a romance, it is funny, flirty and has some really heart-warming moments that fully tug upon your heart strings.
Grace is new to NYC, and like most arrived with big dreams and high hopes of becoming a bestselling romance writer. But she is soon struck with a hard dose of reality when she moves into a small dingy apart ...more

Grace is a southern girl that has moved to New York trying to make it in the big city. She wants to be a writer but until then she needs to find a way to survive first. She looks for jobs while writing on the side, she has a heart of gold, and is the sweetest person ever. These qualities are what Whit sees first then fate starts to throw them together in interesting ways. Whit is a rich guy with a young son trying to do his best as a single dad but when he becomes fast friends with Grace, he kno

I’m OBSESSED with this book - Amie Knight you are a RomCom writing Queen! Whit and Grace are one of the funniest book couples ever and I couldn’t get enough of them. How you managed to simultaneously turn me on AND make me laugh-out-loud is a mystery, but you did, time and time again.
Whit/Whitacker is a devoted dad to his adorable six year old son, Andrew. He is down to earth, sexy and oh so funny. Grace/Carolina is a curvaceous, small town girl, with a big heart and lots of love to give. Toget ...more

I have to say I enjoyed this one. I loved Whit and I loved how Grace described him. All time bad boy and then in the next breath not to judge a book by its cover, lol…
When she became his nanny I thought oh no, but in the end there was a bit of twist. And Whit had some secret he didn’t share with Grace.

Wow what a fabulous book. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this age gap book by Amie who was a new author to me. Grace a newbie to New York keeps meeting Whit a handsome guy but she is on a man ban. We discover fate has other plans for them. This book was so wonderful, they have a divine chemistry and I couldn’t put it down. Also add in one bewitching little boy and you have a divine story that will leave you hooked and feeling happy. This was definitely a five star read. This book is part of The Co

This was a first for me reading this author, but I'm looking forward to more from her. Grace has moved from North Carolina to New York in hopes of writing a number 1 NY best seller but thats not really working out, plus she's on a man diet, but she meets what to her seems to be a bad boy one night stand type of man, but Whitaker is so much more and now her boss. The chemistry is amazing. Loved these characters so much.

I loved this story so much. It hit all the right notes for me.....whitty, sweet, sexy and beautiful. Whit and Grace sizzled from the start and I enjoyed watching their relationship grow. Another high note for me was Andrew, Whit's son. He's adorable and I loved that him and Grace connected so well. This book was everything I look for in a romance story. I have a feeling this is going to be one of my favorite reads this year, and that means me buying a print copy!! Be sure to pick this one up!

Loved this story. I devoured it in one evening since I couldn’t put it down. The characters are refreshing and relatable. I fell instantly in love with Andy and thought the attraction between Whit and Grace was undeniable. The author wrote a terrific story and it’s one you do not want to miss out on. Make sure it’s added to your must read list.

What a fantastic and delightful story! Grace, Whit and Andrew completely melted my heart. Their story had intrigue, insecurities, hope, joy, lots of laughter, and a little despair and tears. This age-gap romance had me feeling all the emotions and glued to the pages. Bad Boy Billionaire is another enjoyable addition to the Cocky Hero Club.

Whit and Grace were such a great characters and very likeable and Andy, of course, too. There was a lovely sweetness to this story, every girl needs a guy like Whit in their life.
Amie was on her usual form with this book and as a result, I found it very hard to put down and I was reading it at every free opportunity.

Let me start this review by saying that if I could live in this book with these characters for the rest of time, I wholeheartedly would. And truthfully, doing that would just make me so beyond happy. I would be perfectly content spending the rest of my days with Grace and Whit and Andy. That is how good it felt to spend time with them. Those three burrowed themselves so deep into my heart and just made me my heart so full while I experienced their story with them.

“A love that is old is sweeter because there’s a comfort there you never find in young love. An ease, an effortless love that takes years and years to build on and it’s made sweeter by all the wonderful memories of young love.”

“Whitaker Aldrich had his arms around me and his hands were dangerously low on my hips, my face practically buried in his too-tight black shirt. And I could smell him and, lord, it was good.
His scent was expensive and spicy. He smelled like heaven and hell had a baby and its name was Whit.”
