Synopsis:

 Love is worth a fortune in this sizzling novel of accidental romance and riches by New York Times bestselling author J.S. Scott.
Wildlife conservationist Jade Sinclair isn’t used to having money. But when she and her siblings learned they were part of the mega-rich Sinclair dynasty, they became billionaires overnight. Jade doesn’t even know how to act rich, especially when she’s dealing with an arrogant, privileged, unreasonably sexy snob like Eli Stone.
Unlike Jade, Eli grew up rich, and he just keeps getting richer. Eli is always looking for an adventure, and he’s found an inviting one in Jade—as resistant as she is irresistible. His less-than-honorable plan? Get her alone in the wilderness by buying out all the spots in her survival class.
Calling a truce, they strike a bargain: Jade will teach Eli basic survival skills, and he’ll teach her how to navigate the world of the wealthy elite. Jade has only one condition—she will not let herself be seduced by him. But some things are easier said than done…


******


Jade Sinclair, a wildlife conservationist, is a brand new billionaire. Having just discovered she is part of the uber wealthy Sinclair family, she is still adjusting to having more money than she knows what to do with. Her and her siblings grew up poor and had to work very hard for what they have. Sometimes it still feels like a dream to Jade.

Wanting to put some of her money to good use, Jade meets with Eli Stone, a well-established billionaire himself in order to see if she can purchase a piece of land that he owns in order to preserve it for wildlife.

Eli is as intimidating as he is good looking and it unsettles Jade a little. Eli is curious about Jade and the details of her backstory. They have a rough start at first, but then later come to an understanding that seemingly benefits them both.

Once they give each other a chance, they realize they have some things in common and get along pretty well. I enjoyed the progression of their relationship. I liked that they were pretty much on even ground...financially speaking. And that even though they are both wealthy they each had something to learn from the other. Their physical chemistry is undeniable and I loved seeing Eli and Jade come to terms with their feelings and what they mean to each other.

This was the first book I’ve read by J.S. Scott, and I look forward to reading more books by her. Her writing is easy to fall into and her characters are solid. I am curious to see how the next Sinclair family member will fall in love. Entangled, book two in The Accidental Billionaires Series is slated to release on April 30, 2019.


RATING: 3-3½ out of 5.
