About this ebook

Plain Jane computer programmer Khloe Richardson needs a date—just so she can make the guy of her dreams jealous. Maybe then he'll finally see her as something more than the awkward girl who works in the second office from the left. Bidding on a bachelor at a charity auction could be the perfect opportunity. Except that Khloe ends up winning the one bachelor she doesn’t want: millionaire Niall Hunter. The same bachelor she spent a scorchingly hot, intense night with...and never saw again.

Niall’s paying the ultimate price for one hot-as-hell night with his best friend’s little sister. Helping Khloe turn her shy wallflower ways into some seriously sultry siren vibes is tantamount to torture. Especially when it’s for another man. But Niall’s promised to behave. Besides, he’s never been a forever kind of guy.

Only now Niall can't stop wanting Khloe. Can't resist touching her. And damned if he can remember why he’s supposed to stay away...

Ratings and reviews

To make the prince of her dreams jealous, Khloe Richardson needs a date, but when she bids on a bachelor at a charity auction, she gets the infamous lothario that gave her one night of passion and then left without a word in this spellbinding contemporary romance. Niall Hunter promised his friend he’d stay away but here he is transforming his sister’s best friend from a shy wallflower to a sultry siren and the reader can’t help but get caught up in the gripping fairy tale as Niall can’t seem to remember just why he’s not supposed to want Khloe. The sizzling chemistry keeps intense desires burning strong between Khloe and Niall but due to a few emotional hang ups, past mistakes and the desire to honor his best friend’s wishes this relationship is stuck in a holding pattern full of emotional turbulence. These strong, compelling characters grab the reader’s attention while they capture the heart and the fast paced, smooth flowing plot captivates readers with lots of suspense, turmoil and romance. Spine tingling tension catches the readers from the very beginning as Khloe is swept up into a situation that she feels is out of her league in order to achieve her heart’s desires and the tension continues to spiral higher as Niall sets out to help her with her goals of attracting another man. The intriguing events ensures that the readers want to know every last detail of Khloe’s transformation and Niall’s determination to keep his hands to his self and the well written scenes and details make it easy to picture each and every moment. Another Bachelor Auction has sent my imagination into overdrive and has me wanting to bid on my own sexy bachelor of course, Khloe was lucky she had Niall to help her with her transformation….where can I find a Niall to help me with mine….hmmm? 4 ½ STARS

Khloe Richardson is silently pining for her boss, Bennett Charles, who barely acknowledges her existence. Her best friend Morgan has an idea: why not get Khloe a date for the upcoming company gala to try and grab Bennett’s attention and make him notice Khloe for the sexy person she is. Well, that she could be if she didn’t look like the programmer nerd she is. So they’re off to a bachelor’s auction, and Morgan will not leave without Khloe having a date, and she finally snatches the last bachelor available. Unfortunately it could not have been worse: he is none other than Irish hottie Niall Hunter, who was Khloe’s brother Michael’s best friend. Michael died three years ago, and in a drunken and grief fuelled stupor, Niall and Khloe had sex, he took her virginity, and he nearly threw her out of his house the morning after. Niall feels guilty to have betrayed his best friend’s trust in more ways than one, even though he cannot get Khloe from his thoughts. She’s loved him for as the moment she knew what love was, but she is bitterly angry, and understandably so. And their road to romance is a very, very difficult one, the conflicts and misunderstandings very well conveyed by Ms. Simone. THE MILLIONAIRE MAKEOVER is a quick read, fast-paced, written in a crisp, contemporary and fresh style. I loved the dialogues, which sounded totally genuine, especially between Morgan and Khloe. I’m not quite sure if I was supposed to like Morgan as much as I did, but I loved her! The MILLIONAIRE MAKEOVER is a fun, quick read, with a lovely Irish accent! Well done, Ms. Simone! I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I really loved this one! Niall is such a tortured soul. He and Khloe had one passionate night but his guilt and grief got the best of him and he disappeared. That was three years ago. Now he finds himself as her date after her friend "wins" him in a charity bachelor auction. No way can he ever let her know how much that night affected him or that she was the only woman who had ever touched his heart. Khloe can't believe her luck when she realizes who it is her friend just spent all her money on. The last person she wants to spend an evening with is Niall Hunter. Their chemistry rocks the pages and you know they won't be able to stay away from each other. It was great fun reading how Khloe transformed into the beautiful woman that was always hiding inside her. And I adored the glam squad who helped her. They were hilarious. This is definitely a book I recommend!
