Bargain with a Billionaire
Hearts & Holdings #3

by Nellie Steele
Billionaire CEO Grant Harrington didn’t want a fifth wife—he needed her.
But now his arranged marriage contract to Julia is nearing its end, Grant can’t imagine life without her. Even his temperamental daughter, Sierra, wants her to stay.
Then, when Grant’s caught in a suspicious explosion, Julia is the first by his bedside … closely followed by the irrepressible first Mrs Harrington. And with Grant’s surprise son, Kyle, moving in too, it seems Harrington House may be getting a little crowded.
Perhaps Julia’s exit from the Harrington family chaos may be timely, although she’s the only one Grant really wants to stay.
Grant might be able to bring a boardroom to its knees. But being honest with Julia about his feelings for her … not so much.
Clearly someone still wants him out of the picture. So will a change of tactics save his life and give Julia a reason to stay?
Grant could say the three little words he really wants to spill.
Or maybe he’ll find another way to negotiate for Julia’s heart.
Bargain With a Billionaire is the third book in the Hearts and Holdings series. It’s a will they, won’t they, fake marriage, billionaire, grumpy sunshine, sweet romance that Nellie Steele’s fans already know and love.

REVIEW
5 out of 5
Y’all, I swear Grant and Julia are going to kill me with their reluctance to tell each other how they really feel. Grant’s first wife, Lydia, showing up, has only complicated things further, and I have to admit, Steele had me so worried when she showed up wanting to be in Grant’s life again that things would end with the contract between Grant and Julia. I am impressed by how real the characters feel, even though I’ll never understand the amount of money at play, the emotions in play feel true to them, and don’t feel fake or forced to fit the storyline. The story keeps you engaged cover to cover, and although there’s no spice really, there’s plenty of tension. I can’t wait to see what book four has in store!
