When I first saw the name “Buchanan Billionaires”, I have to admit that “One Life To Live’s” Llanview Buchanans popped into my mind. But honey, these ain’t those Buchanans! This particular Buchanan, Vince, owns a sex club for the wealthy and debauched. Emma sneaks into the club in order to get close to Vince in the hopes to find some “dirt” on him — but instead, she runs into a sadistic bastard who hooks her up in a BDSM room, digitally violates her, and punches, hits and beats her with various implements until she is knocked unconscious – which is how Vince finds her. He takes her back to the penthouse in order to help her heal and also protect his, and the club’s, reputations.

Naturally Vince and Emma are meant to be together, but once again, the specter of Isabel pops up. As I mentioned in my review of “Buchanan’s Baby”, I think that the explanation about Isabel (couched as it is during the commission of intercourse) is best understood when you know the full story from Books 1-6 of “Bought By The Billionaires”. Emma is distrustful of Vince since he owns the sex club where she, and also her sister six months before her, were assaulted. Vince doesn’t think he deserves any happiness and pushes everyone away.

We meet up with Dillon, Penny, Vince & Shannon again; Dillon gets to use “his men” to force the hand of karma (yay, Dillon!). Penny has her baby, and afterwards counsels Emma to give Vince a chance while also blithely & proudly revealing that she slept with all 3 Buchanans, and hey, no biggie. (Um, glad you’re not MY sister-in-law!!) It’s a Happily Ever After for all 3 couples and a satisfying conclusion to the Buchanan saga… although I wouldn’t be surprised if there isn’t a quickie story in the works to tie up the loose ends of Laird & Emma’s sister…??

With over 110 pages this novella still seems a bit overpriced at $2.99 – but maybe there will be a sale and if so – JUMP on it! Great read! ( )
