About this ebook

Why call this collection of two novellas that are connected by one secondary character, The Billionaire's Bagpipes?
Because the connection is Will Power, a larger-than-life billionaire, whose ability to fade into the background is as unlikely as bagpipes being played in a library going unnoticed. So, being cast as a secondary character in not one, but two other heroes' stories, forced Will to blow his bagpipes and demand his own story.
This boxset contains the two romantic comedy novellas that introduce the grumpy, sleep-deprived Will Power before he meets his sunshine-y foil, Virginia in The Billionaire's Shrubbery.

The Billionaire's Bagpipes contains:

Her Seasoned Delivery

When Magdalena's so-called geriatric, IVF pregnancy forces her to bedrest, Stirling, a man forced into early retirement from his executive chef position, delivers the food that sates Mags's craving. This man cook with spice—even in the kitchen!

Her Best Bet
When Catherine, a world-renowned sculptor who creates controversial art pieces, bets Eric, the engineer she's forced to report to on her installation in the Will Power & Bros. company's lobby, that she's better at math than he is, he's convinced he'll win. Turns out, some bets are worth losing.

Her Seasoned Delivery was originally published in the Eat Your Heart Out 2 charity anthology (2022). Her Best Bet was originally published as The Billionaire's Brouhaha in Resolve: A New Year's Anthology for Choice (2023).

Ratings and reviews

Definitely a challenging read. Some of the early ideas were pretty radical for my non-image relating brain to process. But I did enjoy the creativity needed to keep up with Ms Bloom's thinking. While he fell pretty quickly into the romance, we don't really get a sense of her response until she chooses to reveal it --just the way I felt with her art. Then it all makes sense. I respected her caution but I loved his whole hearted jump foot first right into the middle of a love affair. How nice to be able to trust yourself that much. I throve while in this book, both intellectually and emotionally. I'm really curious how many other people felt the same. Please tell me if you did.
