About the Book

Book: Sadie and the Bad Boy Billionaire

Author: Emma St. Clair and Jenny Proctor

Release Date: January 8, 2024

Genre: Contemporary Rom-Com

I will NOT fall for the smart-mouthed, pretty-boy billionaire who owns Oakley Island. But his yacht is another story …

Love and happily-ever-after? It’s not for me. I’m much happier keeping everyone at arm’s length, focusing on my government cybersecurity work.

But then I push things a little too far and hack my way into trouble. When I need to lay low and stay off the radar for a bit, what better place to do so than on Oakley Island with my sisters?

With limited housing options, I reluctantly agree to stay on the yacht of the very annoying Benedict King—the billionaire who has been messing—flirting?—with me since we met.

I did NOT agree, however, to a voyage out to sea.

But I wake up to find the yacht that should be docked and empty somewhere in the Atlantic with two government agents tasked with babysitting me and one Benedict King.

Who also lied about being my boyfriend.

Typical rich man—thinking he can take whatever he wants.

But he won’t take my heart. Not even when I see his softer side, see behind his walls, see the real man behind the reputation.

Honestly, this might be more dangerous than any of the other trouble I stirred up. Because if I fall for Benedict King, I’m not sure there’s any hope of rescue.

Sadie and the Bad Boy Billionaire is a closed door romantic comedy with mild suspense, sizzling kisses, and a boat full of witty banter. The Oakley Island Romcoms follow three very different sisters as they renovate the house they inherited and find love on the island along the way. The stories are standalone, but if you like continuous stories, we recommend reading them in order. Each book is closed-door, with sizzling chemistry and swoony kisses only.

My Thoughts

Sadie and the Bad Boy Billionaire by Emma St. Clair and Jenny Proctor made me SO happy. This book is highly engaging. It hooks you from chapter one and doesn’t let go. Pages were flying by! I absolutely adore Sadie and Ben. Their characters are great. I totally love Sadie’s independent nature, but I also get her need for impenetrable walls around her poor, battered heart. She keeps Ben at arms length for a good portion of this story, but it makes sense — after what she went through in her past, she needs time to see Ben in action. Talk is cheap but actions speak volumes, and Sadie needs to see what kind of man Ben actually is considering his very public reputation as a bad boy. Ben, regardless of his supposed reputation, is the best kind of hero. Sure, he’s handsome and incredibly intelligent and flirty and fun. But he’s also the guy who pays attention and then acts. At the start of this story, Sadie gets sick. Immediately, Ben is on it. Medicines…check. Fluids…check. Head massages…check. Waiting on Sadie’s beck and call is like second nature to him. I really love this aspect to his character — Ben’s love language is acts of service, and, boy, does he serve others very well. I love his big heart, and I love how well he cares for his friends, his employees, and Sadie. Everyone Ben comes to care for becomes like family. This is such an endearing quality, and I wish more people were as compassionate. And speaking of family, I so much enjoyed getting to see how Sadie’s, Merritt’s, and Eloise’s families grow and expand over an 11-year period. This book wraps up the entire series in a sweet, endearing, happily-ever-after, and I loved every single minute!

Sadie and the Bad Boy Billionaire is a wonderful conclusion to what has been a seriously delightful Contemporary Rom-Com series. I loved every single story, and I am really going to miss all these outstanding characters. I highly recommend not just Sadie and the Bad Boy Billionaire, but the entire Oakley Island series. If you’re in the mood for excellently written Rom-Coms with BIG heart that will leave you smiling, then you definitely need to get your hands on this series. You won’t be disappointed you did!
