REVIEW - Shopping for a Billionaire Box Set One (Shopping for a Billionaire #1-5) by Julia Kent


The Book
Release Date: 11 August 2016

Ever meet a hot billionaire while your hand's in a toilet in the men's room of one of his stores?

No? So it really is just me. Hmm.

When you're a mystery shopper, you get paid to humiliate yourself, all in the name of improving customer service. Romance isn't in my job description. But the day I met Declan McCormick it was love at first flush. 
Until I nearly castrated him with my EpiPen.

How Hot Guy and Toilet Girl became an item involves my crazy mom, a trip to the ER, my homicidal cat, my fake wife, and true love.

Don't look at me like that. I'm just doing my job.

I'm shopping for a billionaire.

My Review.    4 STARS
This book had me laughing out loud at times making my children look at me funny while I listened to this story.  Tanya Eby is the narrator for this one and she does a fantastic job.

Shannon is a mystery shopper for a living and seems to have so many unfortunate events, that its funny, even if she meets Declan in the mens toilet whilst fishing out her phone from the toilet bowl.

Declan is from a wealthy family after his father built up an empire and he is immediately struck by how different Shannon is to every other woman he has met before.  When he happens to go to a meeting where her company are giving a presentation for a business proposal for their company, he uses this to lunge for a date, disguising it as a business meeting.

Shannon has a great friend in Amanda and her other co-workers and her mother is a hoot, her cat a laugh as well really.  The book is told from just Shannons point of view, so we never really get what Declan is thinking at times, especially when the eccentric or unfortunate events happen when he is around.

I enjoyed having all the books together so that I could listen to the whole story at once and how things begin and end with Shannon and Declan.  I do wish however that we had an epilogue of a year or two further into the future to see how the pair were holding up together.
