Review: The Forbidden Billionaire (The Sinclairs, #2) By J.S. Scott


Broody Jared is SO Much More!

The Forbidden Billionaire is #02 in the The Sinclair’s Series by J.S. Scott.

Elizabeth Powers narrates.

HEA with No cliffhangers!

These are about the members of the Sinclair family. The characters are all involved in each others lives and stories so I would HIGHLY suggest you read them in order.

Length: 8 hrs and 25 mins

Content Advisory:
There is sex, dirty talk, and lust fueled cursing.

At the time of this posting, this title is currently available to Read and Listen for Free as part of the Kindle Unlimited Program.

Up to this point Jared has been Moody and Broody! I had mixed feelings going into this story. On one hand he has been a d*ck and not yet redeemed himself for a HEA. On the other hand, I want to know what crawled up his bum and died because there has to be a story there. I was sure it was the after effects of his horrid father, but it turns out there is so much more!

Jared ❤ Mara

Mara Ross is suffering from financial woes! Dolls are in her blood but not exactly profitable these days. The town doll shop has been in the family for generations as well as the apartment above it. Needed repairs have not been made in a long while and when she tries to get the landlord to finally fix it, she is informed that the plans are for destruction rather than updates. She doesn’t have any family left to turn to, so she ends up accepting help from an unlikely source.

Jared Sinclair is number four in the Sinclair line. This makes him the the youngest brother, but still older than Hope. His story starts off rather dark, as he apparently has some guilt issues that are being remedied with booze. Now five years later, he finds himself obsessed with the little shop girl in the run-down house. He can’t stand to see her hurt and offers to help with the situation. Of course he doesn’t mention that HE is the landlord that she is having issue with. He follows her to the farmers market and discovers her other more flavorable talents. He recognizes this to be her ticket out of financial woes and his ticket out of guilt.

There are things that Jared did that I had completely contributed to another sibling. Maybe I heard wrong in the past 3 stories, maybe I didn’t. All I know is that those things alone could redeem him, but it doesn’t stop there. Deep down he is a family man at heart who truly loves his siblings and would do anything for them. He brings that truth and loyalty to the table which makes him worthy of his HEA.

Audio Sample

Lots of side character action to get excited about if you have been reading or listening in order. Dante and Sarah have their wedding which Mara gets to participate in. Future heros and heroines are introduce. Beatrice is up to her match-making ways for she is determined to have the whole Sinclair clan hitched by Christmas. This series just keeps getting better!

 

 

J.S. Scott has made a family to fall in love with. I look foward to listening to Evan’s story!

Review: No Ordinary Billionaire by J. S. Scott

My ReviewsHot Doctor + Hot Cop = Smexylicious!


No Ordinary Billionaire is #01 of 07 in The Sinclairs Series by J.S. Scott. 1-6 are currently published and on Audible to listen to right now through the Unlimited program. #07 is currebtly a pre-order ebook with an expected publication of April 24th, 2018. I’m pretty sure the audio will be out about the same time, as usual.

Elizabeth Powers narrates the series thus far.

HEA with no cliffhanger!

This series is heavily connected by characters so I recommend reading the books in order. It is not only more enjoyable that way, but you will miss out on the little things, as well as spoil yourself on the earlier titles if you read them out of order.

Length: 8 hrs and 28 mins
20 chapters plus an epilogue

Warning: SEX!
Yes, both in thoughts and actions, so if you do not like sex, then you should avoid.

Trigger Warnings
There are attacks, hostage situations, as well as threats/attempts at rape.



♥ Story ♥

Dante Sinclair ❤ Sarah Baxter

Book #01 is Dante’s story.

I think less than a full year has passed since book #0.05 The Billionaire’s Christmas. That one ended on New Years, and I don’t think it has cycled back around yet, but I could be wrong.

This story takes a dark turn in the middle that may make some people a bit unsettled. Don’t fret though, its not too bad and not the main overall focus. This is more a story of two pessimistic souls coming together.


Christ! It should have been me! Why wasn’t I standing where Patrick was standing when the shooter opened up and fired?


Dante Sinclair

The proverbial middle child, who despite being a billionaire, lives a blue collar life as a homicide detective in Los Angeles. A criminal’s temporary insanity leaves Dante severely injured and his partner dead. Dante has major Survivor’s guilt! He goes to his un-used house in Amesport to recover, where he makes the acquaintance of Sarah Baxter, his new doctor.

Of course he is immediately drawn to her.
And of course he wants to have sex with her.
Of course!

His sexy little doctor though, turns out to be a tough nut to crack.


Audio Sample from Audible


Sarah Baxter

A child prodigy, that never got to be a child. Boy is her mother a piece of work. She never let Sarah be a kid, so no dolls, no bike, no non-educational toys, no anything remotely fun! Her lack of understanding of general human interactions have left her feeling pretty lonely. Never fear dear lady. Dante is more than willing to show you how fun, is done!


“Sometimes I like it rough, Sarah. I think you want that, too, or you wouldn’t have asked for it.”
–Dante


The Sinclairs Series started as a story of 4 brothers, but don’t worry there always seems to be more somewhere in the family tree! No Ordinary Billionaire has a completed Read Along With Me so be sure to check that out as you read or listen.

@ Chapter 20


I should have told him. Why didn’t I tell him?
–Sarah

Because you’re a P***y!
Damn! The guy took a bullet for you!


Jared must of taken Grady up on the bet, because he wasn’t who I expected.


I have to quit moping.
–Sarah

Yes, Please! The book is almost over, damn woman!


At least they are going out with a bang!


@ Epilogue


I still don’t like that lady!


“We Sinclairs work fast when we decide we really want something,”
–Dante

He really is setting the bar quite high for his other 2 brothers.


“I think he must have his eye on a woman who isn’t easily persuaded.”
–Dante

That’s Dante setting up Jared to take the fall in the next story!


Sarah decided that sometimes madness was better than intellect.

Read Along With Me
@ Chapter 17


“Dante’s tests all came back negative,” WTF? What tests is this guy having? ‘Negative’ would imply that he ‘caught’ something.


“Then he’s back to his usual ornery self?”
–Jared


I love those little old ladies!


“I think that Elsie should break the story.”
–Sarah


Way to go Sarah!


“I hate to mention this, but you’re in a hospital. I thought . . . I guess I was worried . . . oh hell, I just wondered if you were doing all right with that”
–Emily


ooooooohhhh sexy times? Maybe!


“I’m lonely.” He flipped back the covers and scooted to the left, making room for her in the small bed. “Come sleep with me.”
–Dante


Nope! Grrr!

@ Chapter 18


Now we get smexy time!


There’s nothing worse than being obsessed with a female who’s a damn doctor!
–Dante


If Sarah doesn’t get in her own way!


@ Chapter 19


We get to meet Mara Ross, who is the main focus of the next book, and she is just so adorkably cute!


Sarah’s negative Nancy attitude about Dante is getting old. Seriously! She is missing the obvious here. Get him a job locally. The offer is out there, just help him get there already!


“We gravitate to sweet because we’re all assholes.”
–Dante


Apparently Dante likes the same denial koolaid as Sarah, but at least his is more productive.


“Saturday. Want to place a bet?”
–Grady
