Excellent start to what should be a great new series. The writing and the characters make this a quick fun read. Rocco De Luca has always lived life fast and hard. Now that he has reached his goal of winning the Formula 1 series he's hanging up his racing gear and donning a suit to take his place in the family hotel business. Steffi Harlan is good at her job. Never did she think that would have her babysitting the De Luca family playboy. Charged with making sure Rocco stays out of trouble while her boss Mateo is out of town proves to be a bit difficult when the trouble he is getting into is her!!

I really enjoyed this one and would definitely recommend it.

Having just read a book which I didn’t really enjoy, I knew just who to look out for! This is another great story from Katherine Garbera, with a fantastic location, great characters and a riveting plot - her stories never fail to please!

The De Luca family have a growing chain of hotels and one is on the island where they usually live, Isola del Fiori. Ex F1 champion, Rocco De Luca, has returned to the island to fill in for his older brother for a few weeks. He renews his acquaintanceship with another senior executive at the hotel, Steffi Harlan who is tasked with keeping him out of bother and keeping the hotel running smoothly. Little did he know how attracted to her he would be and when the two get together there’s a volatile reaction! She, however, doesn’t trust playboys or indulge in one night stands. He doesn’t believe in long term relationships and happily ever afters. She likes to plan, to have goals and strategies to help her - he likes to win and isn’t sure what he wants to do with his life. With such contrasting attitudes and seeing attraction, will their love ever stand a chance to develop?

I was right, Katherine Garbera has written another enthralling story for readers to immerse themselves in and enjoy. Her characters are robust, complex and believable. Her plots are never straightforward, there are always twists, turn and angst for the characters to live through to achieve their HEA, making them great stories to escape into. This is a superb start to a new series - I’ll certainly be looking out for further stories in this series - and by this author - in future.

The books in this series are:
The Billionaire’s Temptation by Katherine Garbara The Billionaire’s Deception by Mimi Wells The Billionaire’s Betrayal by Nancy Robards Thompson The Billionaire’s Secret by Kathleen O’Brien The Billionaire’s Charade by Eve Gaddy

Thanks to the authors, publisher and NetGalley, too for letting me read an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Rocco loves women and fast cars and hanging out with his best friend. When he is called into work his families business why his older brother is off on business he is non to happy about it and when he finds out his brothers assistant will be "Baby sitting" him he's not very thrilled about that but is all to happy to find the silver lining since he can never turn down being around a beautiful women. Steffi has one thing on her plate and mind how to make it to be the executive of the company in which she is working. When she gets called into her bosses off and told she will beed to keep his playboy brother in check while the boss is away she is not to mad about it since she has had many fantasy staring Rocco not that anyone including these two men need to know that. She lives by her dads rules of life an plans on sticking to it since thats what life is all about.

The storyline is not deep which is nice for a change from other books. Its fun and lively and has a ton of chemistry popping off the pages. It keeps you on your toes and you drawn into this crazy life of a playboy and the girl who wants to show him a little responsibility. I like how the author did a good job at portraying the characters as they could be anyone not just a billionaire and the fun of each one of the characters. If you are looking for a book with lots of fun and a cute love story this is the book for you and you really won't be disappointed.

I found this to be a fast paced, very simple romance, with clearly great sexual chemistry between Rocco and Steffi.

It is set on the wonderful Amalfi Coast, which sounds very picturesque, but since the book was so short, I found there to be very little depth to the story, so you had to take the characters at face value. They were both clearly suffering from issues relating to their parents, but it was more passed in mentioning than giving you a proper insight.

I was originally interested in this book as I have read a previous Katherine Garbera book and enjoyed it, as well as being intrigued by an ex-F1 champion (you don't come across them often), but unfortunately on this occasion I found it came up short.

I liked The Billionaire's Temptation, and it being so short is in its favour, if you are looking for something quick and sexy.

Read this book for an honest review I love this story it is about Rocco a formula one driver he going back to the family business after retiring from racing but he always been a playboy. He always felt a spark with Steffi his brother Mateo assistant. I love both of Rocco and Steffi chemistry and how they both make each other better people.

A great start to a new series, Amalfi Night Billionaires. This story will take you to exotic location of Isola del Fiori. Rocco Deluca, has lived life in the fast lane and has decided to give up his race car driving and help in the family hotel for a few weeks while his brother is gone. Steffi Harlan, senior executive of the hotel, has been put in charge of babysitting, Rocco for the next two weeks. Steffi, is to smart to fall for the playboy, Rocco, or she thought. They heat up the nights to come. Steffi believes that Love makes fools of everyone, until she meets Rocco.

This is a page turner of very likable, believable characters with twists and turns in the story. I highly recommend this story of hot quick read. I received this book from Netgalley for an honest review.

Another fabulous book from Katherine Garbera!

The Billionaire’s Temptation is a sensuous, emotional and simply fun tale of two people who live in their own fast lanes and the sparks that explode when their paths finally meet. Steffi has worked for the De Luca’s resort as assistant to the president for years. Now she’s close to a big promotion which she wants badly and is fully capable of handling. Her intelligence and elegance combines for the perfect touch for the promotion her boss intends to offer her, once he returns and once she successfully handles the hotel and his younger brother in his absence.

Rocco is well simply put, sin walking. Handsome, wealthy, a Formula One champion – Rocco is a walking billboard for playboy. And the public and the media see that side of him. But now he’s bored. No challenges to distract him and longing for something. Perhaps his age is catching up with him but he wants something more to show his brother that he is capable of handling his position at the hotel. He wants Steffi but not in the usual take a woman for a night and leave fashion of his past. Steffi intrigues him, on some level makes him need to show off the sides of him that he’s kept hidden. She is the one for him, now his challenge is not only to do well at the family business but to capture the heart of one very special woman as well. One that will last a lifetime.

Steffi has the passion of her father and the caution of her mother waring for dominance within her. She is so attracted to Rocco and believes the public persona he dishes out. The last thing she wants is to babysit this handsome devil, no she’d much rather explore the passion that she suspects he has for her as she does for him. She hadn’t considered that she would come to love him, or dared to hope that he might return that feeling. Knowing she’s heading for heartache won’t stop her from enjoying what they have together for as long as she can.

Sparks fly and the love gets hot and heavy in The Billionaire’s Temptation. I enjoyed this one immensely, and as with most first novels in a series there were lots of delicious clues and breadcrumbs scattered about with secondary characters that I’m certain we will learn more about in the coming weeks.

If you are looking for a little drama, lots of intense emotions kind of romance then The Billionaire’s Temptation is perfect for you. Rocco and Steffi are so good for each other and their love will draw you into this story and probably the rest of the series. Indulge yourself in romance and simply enjoy.

*I received an e-ARC of The Billionaire’s Temptation from the publisher and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. That does not change what I think of this novel.*

3 stars

The Billionaire's Temptation was a quick, hot and entertaining read.

The storyline was engaging and kept me turning the pages, it had the perfect amount of drama to keep me interested in both characters and cheering for their HEA.

Thank you Tule Publishing via Netgalley for the advance copy.

I received a copy of this book through Tule Publishing for an honest review. I definitely liked this book and think it's a great start to a new series written by different authors about (4?) brothers. I really liked Rocco and that he has this public image of a playboy, but that's not who he really is or wants to be. The story takes place over a short amount of time so a few scenes are longer than most. This is where I became frustrated with Steffi being in her own head too much and going back and forth. She's pretty stubborn and has easily misinterpreted the rules of living her father gave her. The last 1/3 of the book is what I liked the most. We got out of only Steffi's head and more into misunderstandings and actual conflict. Rocco's shiny book boyfriend status took a hit when he used something personal she told him against her. The combination of all of that picked up the pace and enjoyment of the book for me. I'm excited to read the next few books of this series. I can't stop thinking about one thing - when Matteo returns from his trip, I'm sure he's going to surprised what's happened over two weeks with his assistant and brother!

Can a man who lives his life in the fast lane find love and happiness with a prim and proper lady? The Billionaire's Temptation answers that question. Steffi Harlan is dedicated to her work. She is afraid to take a chance on love. She saw first hand how a partner's betrayal can devastate a person. Rocco De Luca has lived his life on the edge. His passions and desires have ruled him. Now he feels restless and dissatisfied. Can these polar opposites find happiness together? I loved the battle of wills between Steffi and Rocco. When they are together sparks fly. I wasn't sure that she would be able to trust Rocco. His past exploits were not reassuring. The setting is the perfect backdrop for romance. How could they resist with such beauty and luxury surrounding them. Katherine Garbera knows how to write a sensual story. The characters have amazing sexual chemistry. The Billionaire's Temptation is an enjoyable romantic tale. I'm looking forward to the second Amalfi Nights Romance.

Steffi Harlan worked for Mateo. Mateo's brother was Rocco. Rocco was a Formula 1 racing champion. Rocco and Steffi were to take over the family hotel business while Mateo was in Venice. Steffi had been attracted to Rocco for awhile. Now it seemed he was attracted to her. Steffi had been living by a strict code of rules, but that was before spending time with Rocco. I loved the way she changed and grew, discovering how she really felt. After Rocco had been the Formula 1 champion, he was at loose ends. When left with the co-running of his family's hotel, he too changed and grew. He found something he never realized he was looking for. The book contained good characters and plot. Overall it was a good story. I highly recommend to anyone that likes this genre.

The Billionaire's Temptation is a good introduction to the Amalfi Night Billionaires Book series. Katherine does a great job with this plot, showing that when we assume a person is a certain way we are often wrong. Steffi is very happy in her job and she is working hard for a promotion that she deserves. Rocco is a sexy playboy that Steffi admires from afar...but she has no interest in getting involved with someone like him. Rocco is just as interested in Steffi even though they believe in different things, their wants might be more in tune with each others than even they'd have thought. They start working together and Rocco is determined to pursue Steffi. Steffi tries to resist and eventually she gives herself one night to be the bad girl..she figures she deserves it at least once in her life. When they finally give in and things sizzle when they are together, Steffi is still convinced there is no future and that Rocco will never settle down. Rocco believes that Steffi is worth fighting for and he works on changing her opinion of him. This is a good read and I am looking forward to the continuation of this series. I am hoping Shel's story is next!

This book could have been great if it had more story between Steffi and Rocco. I thought it was rushed at the end and sudden changes of feelings on Steffi and Rocco. It was bit weird and suddenly getting back. . It was short but I wished it expanded little more between Rocco's history and Steff's childhood. It just seems missing spark at times between them and suddenly find each other.. Hope other series are better.

wow what a fast paced story, was totally gripping. really enjoyed the story line. the characters worked really well, this story had love, lust and some hot steamy scenes to move the story along. the author has wrote a story with which you will be sucked in and you wont want to put it down. it may be a short read but the author definitely packs a lot into the book.
highly recommended

The Billionaire's Temptation by Katherine Garbera is an enjoyable good start to a new Tule Publishing Series. It has a sleek European cosmopolitan feel to it, the very opposite of the Montana books. Rocco is deeper than the shallow playboy he has been labeled. He is charming and likable. Steffi is the typical hard working assistant who needs a bit shaking up. Both seem to help the other to grow out of their parent’s long shadows.

The setting is wonderful and the plot light especially with the quickly solved lifestyle issue between Rocco and Steffi. I do think in real life that it would take considerable more work for their relationship to succeed. Still it is a entertaining read for a lazy afternoon.

The publisher through Net Galley provided a copy.

WOW!! A++++++++++++++++++++

Katherine Garbera's The Billionaire's Temptation is the first in the Amalfi Night Billionaires series. I love that this series takes us to the Amalfi Coast. Who wouldn't want to escape to a resort on the coast?

Rocco De Luca has returned to Isola del Fiori after winning the the F1 championship. While filling in for his brother, he can't help but notice his assistant, Steffi. The dynamics were fun to watch and I was cheering Rocco on.

I'm looking forward to reading the rest of the the Amalfi Night Billionaires.

Ms. Garbera gets the Amalfi Night Billionaires off to a good start with Rocco and Steffi. A beautiful island, a handsome globetrotter presented with an irresistible challenge. In a world of power and privilege the stakes are high, but the pay off is worth it all. I received an ARC of The Billionaire's Temptation in exchange for an honest review. It may be too early to tell but this series is sure to be a stunner.
