Spicy, sweet and sexy! I sailed through this entire series. It's easy to read with a fun premise and a whole lot of grumpy x sunshine!
These stories lacked a lot of the depth I thought they would have and were very repetitive.
Every story was a grumpy man and a sunshine girl. Enemies to loved and more formulaic than I typically expect from these books.
I read 3/5 of them and then decided to stop. Just not my cup of tea.
Do you like grumpy bosses and corporate environments with your spice and romance? Well if you answer yes than this series is for you. North has put together her previous released stand alone books into a nice package. These are entertaining romances with the grumpy find their ladies that bring them around. I liked a few better than others but overall I'm going to give this a 4 overall.
This is a steamy, entertaining romance collection that centers around tough, brooding billionaires with plenty of attitude. Each book in the series introduces a different “grumpy” billionaire boss whose rough exterior is softened by the right woman, leading to romances that are as fiery as they are heartfelt. Leslie North’s skillful storytelling balances the drama of high-stakes corporate worlds with the emotional journeys of her characters, offering a mix of passion, humor, and romance.
The series is filled with compelling opposites-attract dynamics, where each female lead challenges her billionaire boss in unexpected ways. The chemistry is electric, and the tension keeps readers engaged as each character learns to confront their vulnerabilities and trust in love. North does a great job developing relatable female leads who are independent, witty, and unwilling to back down, making for some fun, sharp-witted banter and memorable moments.
Perfect for fans of workplace romances with a strong dose of billionaire allure, Grumpy Billionaire Bossholes delivers exactly what its name promises—grumpy bosses, strong heroines, and steamy love stories that pack a punch.
Thank you NetGalley and publisher for this arc!!
What a good book! I enjoyed this more than I thought I would. I loved the main characters! They had great chemistry and worked so well together. I loved how the book just flowed. My first by this author but will not be my last!!!
While this series is definitely not for my students, it would be something that a lot of my friends would enjoy. So much spice, with some humor and heartbreak. These books take you on a roller coaster. Some I enjoyed more than others but as whole they were pretty fun to read.
I would give them a 3.5
Thank you netgalley for an arc of Grumpy Billionaire Bossholes by Leslie North
I believe this is a compilation of previously released stories. The first one is the best, the last one is probably the next best, and the stories in the middle tie for third.
Buying this is a good deal for a reader.
I appreciate the collection packaged together as a Grumpy Billionaire Bossholes concept, but it seemed more fair to judge each story on its own as each was published as a standalone. As a collection, each story are ~3 stars each. but it's so conveniently packaged, that I'm tempted to give this 4 stars. We'll split the difference and call it 3.5 stars.
The bossy one: 4.5/5⭐️
Normally I am not a fan of slow burn romances but this one was so thrilling. I was interested in the storyline and the characters all throughout the book.
The grumpy one: 4/5 ⭐️
Loved the main characters (James character development was amazing) and the office romance setting. But I am not a fan of the third act breakup trope.
The grouchy one: 2.5/5 ⭐️
I liked Cameron, despite being a big grumpy he was a sweet charakter. However, did not like his generalization that every relationship ends badly. I did not like Felicity. In the first half she understood everything he said wrong and got mad or disapointed. Another thing that was just off for me was the whole fake dating. Like let's be honest who cares if the CEO of some ring firm dates his employee? Exactly nobody. I also really disliked Lucy. She should just mind her own business.
Mr. Grump: 4.5/5 ⭐️
When I started this book my first thought was: "do we really need another nanny book?". But after finishing it I can tell you that I needed another one.
Mr. Jerk: 4/5 ⭐️
It was a cute read and I kinda fell in love with Noah. Maddy was also great and had some sass and power behind her character. Although I don't hate age gaps, I actually quite like them, but an 18 years age gap was just a little bit to much for me. It's not really about the age itself. They are both adults. But a 25 and a 43 year old are at way different points in their life and in their maturity.
Mr. Cocky: 4.5/5 ⭐️
Max and Theo were my favorite couple out of all the books. Theos love for his family and his devotion to them was just so wholesome to read. Max fierce character was a nice twist to the many always yes saying fmc in romance books.
Average star rating: 4/5
These books we’re enjoying to read! The tropes were a little predictable but still fun to read. Would recommend!
Terrific set of billionaire romances!
This is actually a set of two series; Bossy Glenhaven Billionaires has the first three stories and Billionaire Bossholes has the last three. Each set consists of interconnected standalone romances, and each one is a full-length novel with a solid HEA.
I love this author's characters! The men are all swoony and a little grumpy while the women are feisty and strong enough to stand up to (and stand up for) the men they love. The stories all have different setups and tropes, from nanny/single dad to office romance to enemies-to-lovers.
If you're looking for a treasure trove of billionaire contemporary romances, you're not going to find a better deal. These are all wonderful love stories with plenty of steam and lots of heart. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this set.
Yes, the tropes are familiar and I've read another series like this but I still enjoyed it! These were fun, easy reads and I found myself lost in them.
Nice spicy collection of stories from Leslie. Enjoyed the tension between all the man characters and female leads. Would recommend the whole set.
Spicy, male female, contemporary romance. This is a collection of 6 books. 3 from the Bossy Glenhaven Billionaires (The Bossy One, The Grumpy One, and The Grouchy One) and 3 from the Billionaire Bossholes (Mr Grump, Mr Jerk, and Mr Cocky). I loved having all of these books in one collection. They were steamy, fun, and entertaining with each book being the perfect length. I'll definitely be reading more books by this author.
This is the perfect boxset for readers of billionaire romances as it has a little bit of everything in six full stories. I find that most billionaire romances seem to have the same plot, but we get a little of everything in this boxset and the stories are different and were great reads. There were some stories that dealt with what I would consider sensitive topics, and I thought the author did a fantastic job when writing about them. I enjoyed having the characters I liked making appearances in the following books in this boxset. This boxset had great characters and there was no shortage of well-paced, angst, slow burn, cute, funny, sweet and steamy scenes, breakups and makeups, drama, emotional, swoon worthy and HEA moments. It's a boxset that won't leave readers disappointed and I'm looking forward to reading more books from this author.
Mr. Grump - 4 Stars!
Mr. Jerk - 4 Stars!
Mr. Cocky - 4 Stars!
The Bossy One - 3 Stars!
The Grumpy One - 4 Stars!
The Grouchy One - 4 Stars!
I’m definitely an outlier in my opinion here, so take my opinion lightly, but this really didn’t work for me - I didn’t enjoy the writing at all and found the storylines painfully formulaic.
Thank you to Relay Publishing and NetGalley for the DRC
This book is a nice and easy read. It is a billionaire romance series. It has spice but it is nice that it isn't overwhelming. I would recommend this to someone who is just starting out in reading or reading romance.\
I really enjoyed the authors writing style and the way she is descriptive but not too descriptive. She really gives a great explanation of our characters, not only main but also side characters.
This is a series but based off what I read so far I would keep reading and recommend to other readers.
This box set is an amazing collection of stories. Each book is filled with amazing characters and a fantastic plot. I was captivated from the first page each time and they just keep getting better. Highly recommend reading. Five stars all the way.
"Grumpy Billionaire Bossholes" by Leslie North is a funny and lighthearted romantic comedy that plays with familiar clichés.
The story follows a classic grumpy billionaire and a spirited protagonist who clash but quickly develop chemistry. While the characters and settings are quite predictable—think fancy offices and luxurious vacations—the humor shines through, making the read enjoyable. North's witty dialogue adds to the fun, even if the plot feels familiar.
The book excels in delivering laughs through everyday situations, turning common tropes into entertaining moments. Fans of light romance will appreciate the comedic touch, even if the characters don't break the mold.
Overall, "Grumpy Billionaire Bossholes" is a quick and amusing read, perfect for those looking for a light escape. If you enjoy cliché-filled romances, this book is a fun choice!
Thank you to NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
Some of these were good, others were kind of hard to get through.
I don't mind a good billionaire romance but miscommunication tropes really don't hit well for me sometimes and this just happened to be one of those cases.
Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for the eARC of this book in exchange for a review.
