I just loved this book. It was so easy to get lost in and I just loved meeting these characters. I look forward to seeing what’s next from this author.

I enjoyed The Irredeemable Billionaire. Sebastian is not at all who Grace remembers him as. He's amazing with her son. His bonding with the boy made him so sympathetic. No one can be that good with a kid he just met without have some serious redeeming qualities. He's quick to flash his wealth but it's all matter of fact. He's not doing it to impress and given how much he has it's natural that he'd have great cars and think nothing of flying across the country for a day of amusement parks. He's also generous with his time.

Grace has been through a lot and it so stressed out just to make ends meet. She's a great mum, sweet friend and dedicated professional. Sebastian is at times misguided but his heart is in the right place when he tries to help Grace and her son.

I enjoyed the characters, the story was well-paced and interesting and the book was an overall good read.

The story of Sebastian and Grace.
They were neighbours growing up and now after getting in to trouble with the law he is the 'big brother' to her son.
He wants more from Grace than being friends, but will she give him a chance?

It's a light, feel-good story... it's a second-chance romance between old neighbors Sebastian and Grace... they were enemies when they were younger... lost touch through out the years and one day fate delivers Sebastian to Grace's doorstep...

It's a fast-paced romance... I'm not really a fan of those but like I said earlier it's a feel good story. It's funny and there are some scenes that will pull on your heartstrings.

I have really enjoyed this short series by Lexxie Couper, one of my favorite erotic authors, and getting to meet this trio of interesting and sexy billionaires, and this final story in the series was a fun and sexy way to bring it to an end. The series, set mostly in Australia, revolves around three friends, all billionaires, which meet three amazing women that are so far out of their league simply because they have no interest in their shallow playboy ways. I loved the first two stories in the series and enjoyed Seb and Grace’s story too, if I didn’t enjoy it quite as much. I think the biggest issue for me was the length; there was so much going on in such a short time, that it just needed more time to be fleshed out in order for the full depth of the emotions to be believable. Sebastian has been punished for a stupid indiscretion, sentenced to community service as a Big Brother, and in the process comes face-to-face with his childhood frenemey and neighbor Grace Ford Wilder. Grace has been through a lot in her young life and is struggling now to raise her son and find a way to make ends meet, while still being there for her son, so when Sebastian blasts back into her life she just simply has no time to deal with his shit. But Grace’s son, Cody, is instantly attached to Sebastian, and Sebastian seems just as intensely unwilling to leave them in peace, though he doesn’t seem to have a logical reason for his unwillingness to leave them alone. In the end will Sebastian be able to show he has changed and grown up enough to earn the love of a woman like Grace and the wonderful son she has raised or will Sebastian lose everything he never knew he always wanted? I loved seeing Sebastian faced with his own shortcomings again and again, having to come to terms with the fact that having money doesn’t make him better than anyone else and that his actions really do have real life consequences he has to face just like the rest of us. It was obvious that Seb wasn’t a bad person, wasn’t even a selfish one, just a man that has never wanted for anything in his life and hasn’t ever really had to work too hard to get what he wanted, so being faced with a woman like Grace was way out his comfort zone. Grace on the other hand has had to work and scrape for everything she has her entire life and has no room in it for an egomaniac like Sebastian Hart, despite how sexy he is and how much he makes her heart race and her body come alive like it never has. Grace was the kind of woman I hope to grow up to be, her inner strength always shining through even in her weakest moments, but the love she has for her son and even for Seb is so obvious even more to those around her than herself sometimes. I loved the moments that both Seb and Grace allowed themselves to give in to the passion and love ignited in one another and in those moments the heat between them was enough to start a wildfire, but the quiet moments of emotional support they shared were just as intriguing and sweet. The connection between Cody and Sebastian was also well done and obviously Cody has found the father-figure Grace was looking for, even if he’s not as perfect as she might have wished for her son. The ending to this one was rather abrupt and totally threw me for a loop, but I enjoyed the story overall despite that, though I would have loved a few more chapters to be sure. I love anything that Lexxie writes and I am thrilled that these men all found their loves, but I wonder if maybe another book might pop up with Harrison, Seb’s brother finding love as well (*hint hint, nudge nudge*). Thanks for another sexy and sensual adventure down under, Ms. Couper.

A fun second chance romance with a lot of passion across the spectrum. A cute kid and paparazzi galore ;) You'll laugh and smile and maybe even fan yourself a little.

The Irredeemable Billionaire is the third in the Muse series, and like its predecessors, it's sexy with a cast of great characters.

Sebastian and Grace have a not so sweet history. When they were younger, and neighbors, he was the boy who tormented her in a case of he likes her and doesn't know it, doesn't know how to express it, so he picks on her. Even back then, Grace didn't put up with Sebastian's entitled ways, and always called him out on his behavior. Now, years later, when the man turns up on her doorsteps, saying he's there to see her son, what's she to do? Turns out Sebastian and Grace's one time antagonistic relationship is about to be extended, because he's been assigned to be her son's new Big Brother, thanks to his court-ordered community service.

Like the previous two books in this series, I really liked The Irredeemable Billionaire because its characters are fully realized and well drawn, their chemistry is hot, and once again, a young child is the star of the show. Grace's son, Cody, surely steals the show here, with his adorable comments and his love of filmmaking, which, thanks to Sebastian, he's learning so much more about. Though Cody is the star, Grace and Sebastian are pretty great supporting cast members. I love how their antagonism was just masking their attraction, and how when they gave in, it was pretty glorious. I'm hoping there's more to come in this series, because so far it's been a great series.

Fantastic read , brilliant chemistry and an interesting and fast paced story.

Grace is a widow whose job is being a paramedic and she has a son named Cody. Grace had been married to a firefighter who got killed in the line of duty during a fire. It has been two years. Grace promised she would never replace her deceased husband. Then Grace's childhood neighbor Sebastian and arch enemy shows up at her door to be Cody’s Big Brother. Both Grace and Sebastian/Seb are shocked. Seb is now a famous movie director. Sebastian is in Sydney preparing for the premiere of his latest project. Seb is used to getting what he wants. Seb had been out with friends and several beers later he sees a hat he wants to try on in - Hugo’s Boss Boutique- so he broke the store window so he could try on the hat. Sebastian received community service for his misadventure. His community service was to be a Big Brother to a younger boy. Seb had constantly teased Grace growing up ,making her life miserable. But Grace gave as good as she got. Sheila is Grace’s friend and tried to help, they had also grown up together. Sheila also runs Big Brother. Big Sister program. Sheila had put Cody’s name in to get a big brother without telling Grace. Cody is a movie geek and he and Seb bond over their love of movies. Grace doesn’t date there isn't time after work and Cody. Grace has a neighbor who brings her coffee unannounced in the morning. He is trying to insert himself into Grace's life. Even after their past Seb awakens a sleeping part of Grace and makes her want more.
I really enjoyed reading this book. It was a fun, silly,enjoyable read. Cody definitely added to the story and I just loved him. I liked the pace and the plot of this book a lot. I loved Seb and Grace together. At times this choked me up and at others made me smile. I do think Grace should have let go of the past sooner than she did and I think Seb should have gotten over being full of himself and being a butt a lot sooner than he did also. All and all this was a good read. I loved the characters and the ins and outs and I recommend.

4 stars

The Irredeemable Billionaire by Lexxie Couper is a well written, entertaining contemporary romance and I really enjoyed it.
I loved watching Grace and Seb's relationship unfold, they made me smile, they made me feel and they made me swoon.

The Irredeemable Billionaire is a heartwarming read and I highly recommend it for all the romantic hearts out there.

*Thank you to the publisher via Netgalley for the advance copy.*

I really had trouble getting into the book initially and getting caught up in the emotions of the characters. The storyline was good, but it just didn’t stand out in my mind amongst other books in the genre. The blurb was great, but overall the book just fell flat for me.

Sebastian Hart has never been one to follow the rules, but now his rebellious ways have come back to bite him when he finds himself having to perform community service. However, being assigned as part of the Big Brother program to Grace Wilder's little boy, is a huge problem. Because they used to be next door neighbors when they were younger and he wasn't exactly the nicest person to her. Will Sebastian be able to make things right with Grace while proving he has what it takes to be a great Big Brother to her son, or will he lose his chance at happy ever after with the one person he's always had feelings for?

If you've never read a book by Ms. Couper, you're certainly missing out on some outstanding reading, and this book was a very entertaining, fast-paced, remarkable read where I was hooked immediately by the hero and heroine and the reason he's come back into her life. Certainly, they're enemies because Sebastian was a nuisance with the way he teased and tormented her growing up, yet he's determined to make things right between them and show her that he's changed. Will he win the heroine over?

The way this story started had me sympathizing with the heroine, as being a single mother as well as working as much as she does can't be easy. Yet, she has a great best friend that will do anything to help her, even if it means bringing the hero into her life deceptively. However, it was from the moment the hero and heroine met that had me intrigued to know why the heroine sees Sebastian as the enemy. What did the hero do in the past that makes her so hesitant to give him another chance?

Both the main characters are absolutely enthralling and I loved every moment they conversed, as Sebastian is confident and a man that always does what he wants, which is proven by how he ended up being a big brother in the first place. I also liked how determined he is to win Grace over since it's palpable he's always had feelings for her, even though he teased her relentlessly and never acted as if he were interested in her when they were younger. Yet, what I liked most of all about the hero is the growing bond he formed with the heroine's son. While with Grace, she's strong and brave with all that she's been through with losing the man she loved and I liked that she stood up to her mother-in-law because the woman was a witch. I also liked how good of a mother she was and how she would do anything for her son, even if it means letting Sebastian be his big brother because the little boy needs a father figure in his life.

Overall, Ms. Couper has delivered another wonderful read for her Muse series where the chemistry between this couple was heady and convincing; the romance nicely-detailed; and the ending had me loving what Sebastian did to win Grace's heart. The saying go-big-or-go-home certainly applies, and there's nothing bigger than using the media to his advantage. I would recommend The Irredeemable Billionaire by Lexxie Couper, if you enjoy the enemy to lovers trope or books by authors Stefanie London, Diane Alberts, Regina Kyle and Kira Archer.

A big thank you to NetGalley for the ARC. I am voluntarily reviewing this book. This is a book in a series which I did not realize. It reads totally like a stand alone. I rate this a 4.5 . It is a tough life for a single mom. This was a little more heart pulling than the usual. This read well and seemed like a fresh story. You wanted to hate Sebastian but just couldn't I think most romance readers will enjoy this story.

The Irredeemable Billionaire is a fun second chance story. Sebastian Hart, big time Hollywood director finds himself in a bit of trouble and he's been sentenced to community service. Working with a 10 year old boy through Big Brothers seems like an easy enough task. When that boy turns out to be the son of his childhood neighbor Grace. The one person he's never be able to win over with his charm and she doesn't seem to have soften any. Will Grace accept him or will she make his life even more miserable??

Fun, sexy read that was completely enjoyable. I definitely recommend it.

This was a really great book, it was exciting and well written, I loved the dialogue and I loved Sebastian, I don't think I've ever come across this scenario, so that was refreshing. The characters were adorable, especially Cody and Sebastian and Grace had a wonderful chemistry. This is in a way is a second chance romance and I couldn't put it down, I needed to know what happened next.

I received an advanced copy from Netgalley and voluntarily leave my own opinion

Childhood enemies to lovers

Life hasn’t been good to Grace. She’s survived an unexpected pregnancy to become a paramedic, but the death of her husband has left her completely off-kilter and beaten down.

Sebastian is a successful movie director who doesn’t expect his community service to put him back into contact with the girl he spent their teens clashing with. She’s now a widowed single mother and he’d do anything to put that spark back in her eyes.

I loved Seb. His dialogue was hilarious and it was great to see him realise what a jerk he had been, then work to make up for it and be a better person. Grace was awesome and the little details about her job – the exhaustion, the despair, but also the drive to help others – made it real and intriguing. Cody (Grace’s son) was irrepressible and totally believable.

The snappy dialogue was hilarious and the fast-paced plot kept me up past my bedtime. If you’re looking for a fun billionaire romance, this one is a great choice.

Billionaire filmmaker Sebastian Hart is forced to do community service for causing damage during a friend’s bachelor party by being a Big Brother mentor to a kid that had lost his firefighter father several years before in a fire. The program pairs him up with Cody Wilder, the son of his next door nemesis from his childhood, Grace Wilder that he had always teased.

Paramedic Grace doesn’t want Cody to be without a father figure but she knows that Sebastian is not used to young boys and that his idea of showing Cody a fun time may beyond what Grace could provide for her son.

I really like Lexxie Couper’s writing in general and this contemporary is a great to book to read.

Received an advance reader copy in exchange for an honest review.

I first met Sebastian Hart in Lexxie Couper’s earlier book The Mistaken Billionaire, where he was introduced as the Australian film director who books into hotel rooms as “Mick Dundee” (aka Crocodile Dundee) to maintain anonymity. Which gave me the impression that he was most likely an irrepressible joker with a great sense of the ridiculous.

That impression is certainly borne out in this book, where we get to meet Sebastian again, this time through the eyes of Grace, single mother to Cody, to whom Sebastian is assigned in the Big Brother program when he is given community service following a drunken prank. The only problem is, Grace knew Sebastian long ago. He was the hateful boy next door who mercilessly teased her “Tinsel Teeth” for having braces being just one of his taunts - and his actions since then have only further demonstrated to her that he is still the entitled brat she knew way back when.

It takes Sebastian a long time to figure out that his actions so long ago were spurred by feelings that had nothing to do with dislike. By the time he gets there, he’s managed to make a thorough mess of things with Grace - again - which takes a gesture of the grandest kind to undo.

I was utterly charmed by both Grace and Sebastian - and Grace’s son Cody, who as the mother of an eleven-year-old, I can attest was very realistically portrayed. This is the best Billionaire series I know, and anyone who loves a story of a wealthy guy falling for an ordinary girl and discovering that he needs to prove himself worthy of her (the Mr Darcy trope) should absolutely read this book. It’s charming, hilarious and a perfect antidote to real-world stress. Five stars.

In this entertaining enemies to lovers/second chance romance, Sebastian Hart, a cocky playboy movie director finds himself facing the woman he'd always scorned as a teenager for reasons he never examined closely. In an admittedly stupid move, he'd damaged store property on a whim and faced with community service or a short jail time, he chose the former, registering with a Big Brother organization. He's been matched with Cody Wilder, an aspiring filmmaker, who just so happens to be the son of the woman from high school, Grace, who'd always given him as much grief as he'd given her. Grace is widowed now, her firefighter husband having died a few years earlier. She's really not in the mood to deal with the adolescent games that Seb used to play with her. But Seb surprises her at every turn, and the attraction she feels towards him is mutual. This time around, will they end up as friends, or even more?

This is a really fun read! I loved how Sebastian changes for the better over the course of the story, a result of his interactions with Grace and Cody. Seeing how hard Grace works to make a life for and her son makes him realize how spoiled he's been, using his fame and money to get what he wants and never worrying about the consequences. He finds that he wants Grace's approval now, something he'd likely wanted in high school too, but never admitted for fear of rejection.

One aspect of the story that I really appreciated was that the author didn't have Grace compare her deceased husband to Seb. Often I find that in creating the new relationship, there is a tendency to try to make the reader like the new partner more by having negative things to say about the previous spouse. In this story Grace loved and grieved her husband, and has no qualms about telling Seb this. Her interactions with Seb, her decision to rekindle her sex life with him (she's had no one in her life since her husband died) and the way their relationship becomes serious all happen naturally. Seb turns out to have a sweet side (along with a sexy one!) and makes the right decisions to give Grace and Cody and himself the happy ending they deserve. 4 stars for an entertaining and sexy romance!

This review will be posted at sale sites during release week. It has been posted on Goodreads.

This is a very emotional read, with all the problems faced by paramedic Grace Wilder after the untimely death of her fireman husband, leaving her to bring up their delightful son, Cody. She has a great support network, so isn’t on her own, but one of them signed up to the Big Brother programme which sounds like a great idea - I hadn’t heard of it before. When Sebastian Hart goes to act as her son’s big brother drama is bound to follow. Sebastian used to live next door to Grace and teased her constantly. He was an over indulged, spoilt brat then and now he’s a wealthy film director but has behaved in a stupid manner, as a result of which he has community service - to be Big Brother to Cody.

Writing this review for this story has me in a turmoil of my own. I don’t normally give any spoilers away in my reviews but there are some later in this paragraph, so skip them if you don’t want to know what happens! There are many aspects of the story that were fantastic and delightful to read. The way Sebastian connected with Cole, their developing relationship and positive impact on each other were definitely heart warming. However, there were other parts that I really didn’t like and where I couldn’t relate to events or scenarios.  For instance, there is no way I would leave my child with someone who was my childhood worst enemy more than a decade after I last saw them. I mean, I would have no idea what they are like now and, in this case, she knew he'd done something wrong to be made to do community service! They were bad enough to you as a teen, what could they do to your child? What ‘friend’ would sign you and your child up to something like the Big Brother programme without discussing it with you first to make sure you were agreeable? I also couldn’t imagine a reputable, renowned film director not having seriously watched his own film before the premier and not realised how bad it was or reacting after the premiere in the way he did.

Cody is definitely the star of the story. He’s a brilliant character in his own right. The developing relationship is engaging and I thought the problems of a single Mum were well portrayed so I had no problems reading the story - only in reviewing it! It is a second chance romance with plenty of angst and turmoil and I suspect most folks will thoroughly enjoy reading it.

I requested and received a copy of this novel, via NetGalley. This is my honest review after choosing to read it.
