Beauty and the Billionaire
Being called to bail out my old college friend at a strip club for his bachelor party wasn’t a surprise. There was a reason I’d skipped out on the whole thing to begin with.
What I wasn’t expecting was to meet the woman who I want to spend the rest of my life with while I’m there. And for her to be looking like she needed some saving of her own.
Remi is irresistible, and her innocence only makes her that much more appealing. She’s perfect for me. The only problem is Remi has no clue who I really am or the things I’ll do to keep her. She might not believe in happily ever after but I’m more than willing to show her otherwise.
This book includes all five stories from the Forever Series! Just One Look, You Are Mine, Beauty and the Outcast, Beauty and the Gentleman and the NEVER RELEASED BEFORE Beauty and the Billionaire.
This series is full of all the tropes you love. You’ll get happily ever afters, no cheating, and sugary-sweet alphas that love to get on their knees.

Great sweet read!
June 1, 2022
I love sweet, uncomplicated romance reads. Lucy delivers a super fast Insta love that hits every one of my requirements.
Minimal drama, and a guaranteed happily ever after is a given. And the heat factor is 💯 on fire.
It’s over the top but it’s worth it.
It’s a yes from me.

Cute!
I liked that the “finding your soulmate in the strip club” trope was switched up here a little. I like that Grant was only there to bail out his friend instead of the standard “yes I’m looking at these girls, I don’t know why, I NEVER do this” BS.
It was super fast paced with basically Remi along for the ride from the get go. I did like that she ditched him when it sounded like he was setting up another date and didn’t just sit around and be pathetic.
I expected it to be a little longer because most of the other books in the series were so I was kind of sad it was so short.

OTTAP from the very beginning. Loved it
May 22, 2023
short read probably around 70+ pages only. way instant attraction then dropping the love bomb after one night. would be even better if there's more to the story. nevertheless, it was still okay read if readers wanted something fluffy and quick.

Eeeeeeeehhhhhhhhhhhhhh.....
This is son from you are mine which I LOVED. He goes to a strip joint to get his friend but then sees remi and it's Lurrrrrrrveeeeee. He takes her home, has the smexxx and basically says she's his. She runs from his house the morning after after hearing something that was misconstrued but it all.works out.
Little baby stalking and some growls but it was a fast and furious short and underdeveloped story. It wad fine 🤷

This is actually a set of 5 books all from the Forever series. Four of the books were released previously and the fifth book is new and (I believe) only found in this set. The books included are:
Just One Look
I kind of loved this story. It was entertaining and enjoyable even though the way that Roman and Fawn come together isn't the best. The characters were interesting and likable for the most part. I'm glad that Roman was able to keep Fawn safe and ensure her safety down the road. Roman fell in love with Fawn the moment he saw her picture. He was determined that she had to be his no matter what. Fawn met Roman and while she thought he was attractive (and possibly downright handsome if he smiled) she wasn't prepared for his plans. Roman, however, was very good at making sure that things went his way. He was also very good at making sure that things went Fawn's way as well. He was very dedicated to Fawn and Ace. Ace was a total sweetheart and fortunately, he came into Roman's life and started to change it for the better. Ace also made Fawn's life better. I would totally keep Roman. He was gruff and growly but super sweet with Fawn, Ace, and Grams. I loved Roman and Fawn's happy ever after.
You Are Mine
I kind of loved this story. It was entertaining and enjoyable with some mystery and a couple of twists thrown in as well. The characters were interesting and likable for the most part. Roman and Fawn were a nice addition to the cast of characters as was Faith. Ryan was a disappointment. Eve should have been gone a long time ago. Dane was protective, possessive, and determined. Kennedy was sweet, kind, and loving. Kennedy was amazing with how she trusted Dane even without having her memories. Dane never gave up on finding his Kennedy. I loved their happy ever after.
Beauty and the Outcast
It took me some time to decide how to review this story. There are elements that could be triggering due to references of previous abuse as well as the threat of abuse/violence. After careful consideration and re-reading the story I decided that although the references were there, they didn't detract from the story and in fact added another layer to the story. I actually loved this story. It was entertaining and enjoyable in spite of some serious subject matter that was referenced. The characters were easy to relate to and likable for the most part. The support structure of Kennedy, Oz, Faith, Ace, and more was wonderful and exactly what was needed for the characters. Knox and Whitney both had broken pieces but they each helped the other fix their broken parts. Knox was protective, possessive, withdrawn but also watchful and caring. Whitney was sweet, quiet, and a little bit withdrawn. They begin to realize that they can be more when they are together. I loved their romance. I loved their happy ever after.
Beauty and the Gentleman
I loved this story. It was very entertaining and enjoyable. The characters were relatable and likable. The dynamic between Ace, Faith, Knox, and Whitney was absolutely wonderful. The relationship that they all had with their parents was amazing and the kind of relationship that I wish I'd had with my parents. Ace and Faith were both possessive of each other but also so sweet together. When they weren't sure about something between the two of them, they actually communicated which helped to head off any issues. Ace and Faith finding each other so young, being able to grow their relationship along the way, and finally being able to have their happy ever after together as they were made for each other was enough to make me want to do a happy dance.
Beauty and the Billionaire
I really liked this story. It was entertaining and enjoyable with a couple of exceptions. The characters were interesting and likable for the most part. I wanted more to happen with Chicago and with Logan. They deserved to get some kind of punishment or something for the way they acted and treated others. Grant was protective, possessive, and sweet. Remi was caring and too trusting (I felt!) for her own good. Grant and Remi were attracted to each other immediately. Grant knew that he was going to keep Remi right away. There was a tiny bit of drama from a simple misunderstanding but it gets resolved quickly. I loved their happily ever after.
I recommend reading any or all of these books.

Beauty and the Billionaire: Grant and Remi - Grant is Faith and Knox's little brother from You Are Mine (Dane and Kennedy's son). He goes to a strip club to bail out a friend who has gotten into trouble (and in fact, caused the trouble himself). He sees Remi and finally understands what his family has been talking about all this time when they talk about true, instant love. He takes Remi home, but there is a misunderstanding that makes her leave. Thankfully, she has an interview with Grant's sister at the shelter (she doesn't know it's his sister) so they're able to reunite and clear up the misunderstandings. I was glad that Grant finally got a story - he was a little bit of a brat about true love, so he deserved to fall hard, and he sure did.
I know that a lot of people felt that the bonus story didn't develop the characters enough, but honestly, I can't get enough of this author's sweet, insta-love stories. I don't know what it is about them, but ever since I read her first one, Meant to Love, I've been obsessed. I love getting all the stories in the series in one collection.

This book is a collection of short stories perhaps about the single family.
I read Beauty and the Billionaire and I must say I was shocked. It was so so bad that I simply have to leave a review
The Billionaire gets called to a club to sort of 'bail out' a college roommate who is not his friend. He sees a girl who seems to be getting forced to prostitution. He immediately one single look finds, she is the one.He gets her out of there. Takes her to his home. She is supposed to be a young girl, a virgin.
SHe immediately jumps into bed with him. Initiates everything. There is no sense of danger of an unknown person, trauma of a night gone bad, nothing. Morning she overhears something, misunderstands, runs away, almost gets raped. The Billionaire finds her in a series of coincidences, tells her she is the one and they are together.
Honestly I cant think of it getting worse.
I do understand that sometimes books are written purely as porn but I don't think even on that score this one fit the cap. A really bad one.

This book had the entire series within it, so I was able to read all five books. This series is a compilation of short stories revolving around 5 couples who are all entwined with each other to so degree, for example, one book is dedicated to one couple's children. This series is quite interesting as the men are very brooding, alpha-like, and have a sense of danger or trouble following them around. The women are shy, and smart and are the only people to bring light to their darkness. It is quite an interesting dynamic. I will say the plot is quite average and fast-paced, the romance on the other hand is quite spicy and is placed many times throughout the entire book. This was a very average read, if your looking for something really simple with no in-depth plots then this is the series for you.

This collection was the start of my shameless Lucy Darling obsession. You want sweet, insta love/obsession, OTTP, with some FMC virgins and Dual Virgin than this is the book and author for you.

Being called to bail out his old college friend at a strip club for his bachelor party wasn’t a surprise. There was a reason he’d skipped out on the whole thing to begin with.
What Grant wasn’t expecting was to meet the woman who he wanted to spend the rest of my life with while he was there.
Remi is irresistible, and her innocence only makes her that much more appealing for Grant. She’s perfect for him. She might not believe in happily ever after but Grant was more than willing to show her otherwise.
Thank fuck.
That’s all I could think when she took my hand. I’m not sure what else I would have done if she hadn’t. I’m starting to have an understanding of why my Uncle Roman blackmailed Fawn in to marrying him.
They met each other like the fate, it’s the last book of Osborne and King’s families romance series. This series is now becoming my NO.1 Favourite Series. I love each of them that much as fk!
She’s in a tiny white dress that makes her red hair glow. I want to touch it. To run my fingers through it and see if it's as soft as it looks. She reminds me of a tiny porcelain doll with rosy cheeks and painted lips. She screams sex and innocence at the same time. I have no idea how that’s possible, but it's true, nonetheless
Lucy Darling’s stories was more sweet than every books I read. It’s just amazing for me to read every her books in this whole series. All of fives heroines saved the heroes from the dark, just like the beauties and beasts.
From the moment I saw her. No, fuck that. She’s been mine since the day I was born. It answers so many questions I’ve always had lurking in the back of my mind. Why I never felt a desire for anyone in this way. I thought something was wrong with me. I was right. I was missing her. I just wasn’t aware of it.
Grant and Remi’s story was still stolen my heart, I enjoyed reading theirs crazy and insane and obsessed love. SO SO MUCH!!♥️♥️♥️
“I love you, Remi. Have from the moment I spotted you. You’re the only girl for me. The only one I’ll ever kiss, make love to, marry, have babies with.”
“I don’t need to catch up, Grant. I’m right here with you, and I’m not going anywhere.” A sexy smile spreads across his handsome face.
“You can try if you want, little fox, but know I’ll catch you every time.”
Other parts I love
🔸🔸🔸I’ve always loved my father. He’s taught me so many things in life. One being how to treat a woman you call your own. But when he refers to Remi as his daughter, it hits me right in the gut every damn time, and I’m damn thankful for it. He and Mom both gave her something I never could: parents that she can always count on. I know how much she values the relationship she’s built with them.
——Grant
🔸🔸🔸“Where’s my wife?” I ask as Dad pulls Mom into his side, wrapping his arm around her.
Their PDA used to drive me insane. I never understood why it was so necessary until I met Remi. I’ve eaten a lot of crow since I found my little fox. I get it. It’s hard to keep your hands off the person you love.
You can never get enough. Seeing how my parents are, I know that need will never lessen. If anything, it’s only grown with each year that passes.
🔸🔸🔸END OF THE SERIES. 🔸🔸🔸
I love this series so dm much, and I just acting like wanted to eat all of those five books. Omg, I mean it, it might be more difficult for me to find a better instant love like this series.

Beauty and the Billionaire is the story of Remi and Grant.
He’s a billionaire that goes to a strip club to pick up his friend. He notices a girl and is instantly obsessed with her. Logan is drunk of his ass and tried to flirt with Remi hence her busted lip when she fell. He took her home not by force and her cousin who is the strip owner or manager tries to deter her from going but this alpha isn’t going to let that happen. He takes her to his house after hearing that her safety at her apartment isn’t good and he claims her on the first night. He’s on the phone and she misunderstood something he said to his sister and she was jealous so she ran back to her apartment and when Grant burst in Logan was cornering her and he saw red and started beating the shit out of him. He took her to the room and jus unloaded about how scared he was and she calmed her man down. Lol. HEA and kids. His parents are so cute it’s not even funny. She opens a women’s shelter and his father considers her his daughter which is like so cute. Insta love, double virgin, found family trope, billionaire alpha, innocent kind heroine.
Solid 4/5

He took her home not by force and her cousin who is the strip owner or manager tries to deter her from going but this alpha isn’t going to let that happen. He takes her to his house after hearing that her safety at her apartment isn’t good and he claims her on the first night. He’s on the phone and she misunderstood something he said to his sister and she was jealous so she ran back to her apartment and when Grant burst in Logan was cornering her and he saw red and started beating the shit out of him. He took her to the room and jus unloaded about how scared he was and she calmed her man down. Lol. HEA and kids. His parents are so cute it’s not even funny. She opens a women’s shelter and his father considers her his daughter which is like so cute. Insta love, double virgin, found family trope, billionaire alpha, innocent kind heroine.
Solid 4/5

Beauty and the Billionaire...
The final (I'm assuming) in the New Hope Series. Grant Osborne is getting his story now, and he's finally experiencing that all consuming love for his one and only that his father, mother, and siblings have all experienced.
Grant never expected that coming to help his friend at a stripper club could result in him finding his woman. But that's exactly what happens when he spots Remi. He'll protect Remi from everyone determined to hurt her, including her cousin.
The book was good. But if I'm being honest I would've liked to have seen Grant eat a bit more crow. He didn't understand the kind of love that his family experienced, but just fell right into it when it came to Remi. Also I get a bit tired of the whole "let's runaway because we overhear something". I always thought it was a bit stupid and immature.

Wished this was longer, wanted to see more of them. But maybe that’s why I love shorts book at the moment, things is fast paced and the hero’s falls instantly for their women.
He finds her in a stip club where he’s picking up his asshole friend after he got a little to grabby with the heroine. The moment he laid his eyes on her, he was hooked.
It’s pretty fast paced, he brings her home, they falls fast, both give their V to each other.
His sister called next day to invite him on a date, the h overhears not knowing it’s her the sister wants to set him up on, because the sister knew the moment she met the h that she’s ment to be with the H.
Safe, dual V, quick read and they profess their love after one day together.

Obsession can be a good thing !!
The families in these stories that are put together by “ fate” are awesome. Strong, bold and obsessive,lol. These stories are what every woman wants. A strong , bold man who wants nothing but the woman who steals his life force and makes him stronger and more protective than is comfortable for anyone else and makes her stronger than she ever thought she could be. And the love ?? Well that’s awesome too. Lucy Darling makes you happy but sad to realize that that kind of love might be out there and you might miss it.
Thank you to Ms. Darling for the very tearful and happy read !!

A quick insta-love romance that will do the trick.
This author writes sweet and obsessed, and in here those two qualities shine. The last man standing goes to a seedy place to solve a problem when, bam, he finds an innocent damsel in distress. Suddenly, he can't understand why he was so adamant to reject love. He craves her, he rescues her and he shows her how strong his feelings for a forever with her are.
There's some steam, family love, a good wrap-up for the series with a glimpse of other characters, and a big burly man who is too obsessed with his lady to care for anything else. Cutie.

I was so excited to see a new entry in the New Hope series by Lucy Darling. We finally get Grant’s story and it was a fabulous conclusion to the series. Grant was sceptical of the crazy obsessive love experienced by his family members. But as soon as he saw Remi, he knew … she was the one.
Remi was everything Grant didn’t know he needed in life. She helped him start to actually live life and he gave her the love and family she had always craved. They were so sweet together. I really enjoyed this one. And it was great to get a glimpse of previous characters in this series wrap-up.

Great Series!!!!
So I had read the first few books in this series but I was dying for Grants story. I’m so glad Lucy wrote it. Grant is every bit his fathers son. While he thought that love wasn’t in the cards for him like it was his parents and his siblings. Yet he quickly realizes he is just like them. He is all alpha all the time. Possessive and protective and will do everything and anything for Remi. It just took the right person to bring it out in him. Great ending to the series.

(This book includes all 5 stories in the series but this review is only for the new story.) This is, I believe, meant to be the final novella in this series. It started out with a MMC and situation similar to the other books. The plot was mostly on par, but it felt really rushed. I think this would have been better if it were a little longer. The conflict didn’t really make sense and sort of fell into the “if they had only had a conversation” type of incident. Not bad for what it was, but could have been much better.
4 stars for the whole series.

Squeeeee!!!! I loved this!!!!
I swear she read my mind!! Wishing for grants story and bam! It's there!! And it's PERFECTLY AMAZING!!!! He's everything oz and kennedy would want for him to be and the fact he's so tall! Gah!
Remi is possibly my favorite so far of all of them. She's alone and innocent but she is sooooo strong! I love it. Not like kicking butt strong but an amazing inner strength.
Another one click that will be reread and adored!

Lucy Darling is one of my favorite authors. Lucy Darling delivers a super fast Insta love that hits every one of my requirements. Grant and Remi was an great insta love story. Grant was the last holdout in the family. He's seeing everyone fall in love and he thinks they are crazy. Until he sees Remi and he understands what it's all about. From that day on she is his and he will do anything for her.

I love this little mini series. I had read Roman and Fawn, Dane and Kennedy, Knox and Whitney, and Ace and Faith stories, but to finally read Grant’s story was the icing on the cake 🎂. Grant just like his father Dane and uncle Roman did not play when it came to their women. When it came to Remi he wasn’t having it. This was a good series and I am guessing Grant’s story is the end. 😟😏😌 But I truly loved this series. ❤️Great Read.

The end of a series that I loved 😍 Grant, the last one standing, Faith’s brother, who is big man in Vegas, goes to a casino to help out a friend and instead finds his future. Remi, who got hurt when just trying to get a job, feels completely safe once Grant barges in that room. He takes her and from that point on, their future is set. I loved this series and this interconnected family. Can’t wait to re-read from the beginning!!

Grant wasn't even looking for his forever.
Grant has always been a little scared to even look for the one woman he would call his own. His family are all crazy obsessed with their other halves from the moment they laid eyes on them. But you can't hide from fate and the moment Grant lays eyes on Remi his world is turned upside down!

**This is an ARC review**
It seems like I have been waiting in anticipation for this to come out after that little snippet at the end of beauty and the gentleman. But this book was well worth the wait. Grant and Remi was an great insta love story. Not quite as long an indepth as the others but it was still good.

I loved this newest installment in this extended family/universe. What is not to love about a hero that sees no other women before laying eyes on the heroine and can only see her from that moment on. He goes from cold and collected to beast mode in a blink, and it is delicious to read. My only complaint? I wish it was longer!
