Addicted 2 Romance: More Than Love by Ruth Cardello - A Barrington Billionaires Series Standalone

About the Book

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Ruth Cardello returns with a hilarious addition to Barrington Billionaire series.

What happens when a normally reserved billionaire tries to be a regular guy and discovers he has a wild side? Grant Barrington is a quiet hero who is about to flex his alpha billionaire muscle.

Viviana Sutton is living in Boston after being swindled by her ex-boyfriend. She’s done with relationships and isn’t looking for forever. Giving in to one naughty, incredibly hot romp with a financially challenged stranger actually makes her feel better until she takes a pregnancy test.

To help his family, he’ll need to be the man she makes him feel like he can be.

For the sake of her baby, she’ll give him a chance to prove what they had was more than sex—and he’s more than just a regular guy.

Addicted 2 Romance Review

I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

I LOVE this series and after reading this book well you will be looking forward to the next one. This book takes the series in a total new direction and it was beyond fantastic. The end was so terrific. I just want to state that if you love the author and you are hooked on the Barringtons well you will just love this story.

This is Grant Barrington's story. He has been mentioned throughout this series as he is the financial genius and made everyone tons of money. This book also has a little Andrades/Legacy Collection in it in that Alathea and Marc get involved in this storyline and we go back and revisit what happened in the last book with Helene, Andrew, her parents and Stiles are back.

This book/series is NOT a stand alone, each story brings you closer to understanding the plot made by Sophia's sister Patrice Andrade. I highly recommend you read them in order otherwise you will be beyond lost.

The basics you will need to understand this story is that 30 years before the Barrington's mother, Sophia (sister is Patrice Andrade) gave birth to twins, Kent and Kenzi in Aruba. She was told Kent died and it devestated her and her husband made everyone believe she was very fragile. So the kids grew up never asking for help and feeling like they could never be themselves with their family and could never upset their mother.

Now 30 years later Sophia is no longer fragile and the kids and Sophia believe that something was wrong with Kent's birth and they have started investigating that. Each child has found out something more and in this book Grant has decided to get involved in the hunt for the truth.

He is working with Marc and Alethea from the Legacy series and Marc tells Grant he is too uppidty and needs to hang out with regular folks. Which is how he meets Viviana, and ends up getting to know her.

I don't want to spoil too much, but I did not like Grant at all in the beginning of this book. In fact I hated him and I have loved every Barrington before him. He was a class A JERK. Viviana was the reason I loved this book. She is sweeyt, naive and a total bad ass and I loved her.

About 60% in Grant gets a clue and starts trying to win her back and thats really when this story kicked in for me. I started liking Grant and I beyond loved the story and where it went after that. This story was written wonderfully and it went very fast as a lot happens in this story. Some parts were glossed over when I'd rather have more details like the first time Viviana meets the Barrington's but it would have made the book too long.

All in all this was a fantastic read and I loved every second of it. I cannot wait for more Barrington's.

About the Author

Ruth Cardello hit the NYTs and USA Today for the first time back in 2012. Millions of sales are evidence that her books are akin to potato chips, addictive from the first one. She has created a multi-series billionaire world with a combination of escapism and realism that has gained her a faithful following of readers.

Ruth Cardello was born the youngest of 11 children in a small city in northern Rhode Island. She spent her young adult years moving as far away as she could from her large extended family. She lived in Boston, Paris, Orlando, New York--then came full circle and moved back to New England. She now happily lives one town over from the one she was born in. For her, family trumped the warmer weather and international scene.

She was an educator for 20 years, the last 11 as a kindergarten teacher. When her school district began cutting jobs, Ruth turned a serious eye toward her second love- writing and has never been happier. When she's not writing, you can find her chasing her children around her small farm or connecting with her readers online.

What Kindle Reviewers write about her:

"Wow hot at every page. Heart stoping, fear raging, mind blowing wonderful."

"I'm a true fan of Ms. Cardello. I ran on to her first book a few years back and have been hooked ever since. I could go on and on about the story line of this book, but I'm not. All of her books are total page turners, unique, heart wrenching, and I love them all. There isn't two alike in the bunch and I feel like I know the characters personally. I personally read 97 authors books. And I buy every book they put out. This author is in my top 10. Great job and keep them coming."

"Love this series. Got me to start reading again. I look forward to the next book. Thank you for giving me the love of reading back."
