Review of Rachael Stewart’s The Billionaire Behind the Headlines.

Today, I am delighted to review Rachael Stewart’s novel, The Billionaire Behind the Headlines, and there is the chance to win a fabulous stack of books from the author!

About the book

In Rachael Stewart’s latest Harlequin Romance, the second in her Claiming the Ferrington Empire duet, an invitation to Paris with a billionaire is on the cards, but only if Bree is brave enough to take it…

Can a playboy billionaire……capture her heart?

Bree has escaped the big city to heal her heart in a village bakery. But when notorious billionaire Theo walks through the door, emotionally guarded Bree discovers it’s not just her toffee pudding that’s hot and sweet! The man behind the headlines is charming but intriguingly cynical about love. Accepting his invitation to Paris could be a mistake—or the best decision she’s ever made…

My review:

I haven’t read the first in the Ferrington Brothers duet but that didn’t detract from my enjoyment of this book. The characters were all likeable and I enjoyed watching Bree and Theo’s relationship develop. They each have issues relating to the past but it is clear from the start that they share chemistry.

This book had fewer physically intimate scenes than other Rachael Stewart books I have read, but the relationship and growing intimacy is still well drawn. Scenes between Bree and Theo as they unexpectedly spend time together looking after a young child were sweet. The couple’s shared baking scenes (Bree works in her family’s bakery) showed a more vulnerable side to Theo, especially as insight into his past is revealed. As well as this, there is a trip to Paris, a chase to the airport and a happy ever after – what’s not to like?

About the author:

Rachael Stewart adores conjuring up stories for the readers of Harlequin Mills & Boon and Deep Desires Press, with tales varying from the heartwarmingly romantic to the wildly erotic.

She’s been writing since she could put pen to paper as the stacks of scrawled on A4 sheets in her loft will attest to, and the lovingly bound short stories that her father would run off at work and proudly share out with his colleagues. Thinking it was a pipe dream to be published one day, she pursued a sensible career in business but she was really play-acting, achieving the appropriate degree and spending many years in the corporate world where she never truly belonged. Always happiest when she was sat at her laptop in the quiet hours tapping out a story or two. And so here she is, a published author, her full-time pleasure, a dream come true.

A Welsh lass at heart, she now lives in Yorkshire with her husband and three children, and if she’s not glued to her laptop, she’s wrapped up in them or enjoying the great outdoors seeking out inspiration.
