TEASER ALERT: BILLIONAIRE UNCLAIMED: CHASE (THE BILLIONAIRE'S OBSESSION: CALIFORNIA BILLIONAIRES) BY J.S. SCOTT

 



 

 

 

"At the heart of every heartache is a sprinkling of hope. Scott takes that mustard seed of faith and does wonders. Billionaire Unclaimed removes the rose colored glasses and exposes the flaws within the beauty of life and love." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)

 

 

 

Billionaire Unclaimed~Chase

Book 18 in The Billionaire's Obsession Series coming December 6, 2022

 

She's an investigative journalist in trouble. He's a billionaire CEO who has sworn off women for the foreseeable future, but has the ability to save her. They're two people who belong together and never really recognize it until the unthinkable happens!

 

 

I've known Chase Durand since childhood. He's drop-dead gorgeous, sophisticated, ridiculously wealthy, and wildly intelligent. Unfortunately, he's also my best friend's brother and completely unattainable for me. Always has been, even though I've had some kind of idiotic attraction to him for the last decade.

I can't say that Chase and I are really...friends. We're more like friendly adversaries whenever we meet up as adults.

Sure, he still treats me like an honorary sibling, just like his own little sister. Regrettably, I haven't seen him in that light since I graduated from college, and probably never will again, so I avoid him as often as possible.

Until the day that I just can't ignore the way I feel anymore.

Until the day he literally saved my life in a way I never would have believed possible if it hadn't personally happened to me.

Until the day I realize that there's so much more to Chase Durand than the cocky, brilliant, unbelievably hot billionaire that people see on the surface.

Until the day I see the pain he's always tried to hide from the rest of the world.

After all that, we're much too close to go back to the way we used to be. He's healed my body and my psyche. I can't walk away from Chase until I unravel the enigmatic man and do the same for him, even if it costs me both my heart and my soul in the process...

***Author Note: This is a billionaire romance with a friends to lovers and best friend's brother trope. If you like protective hero romance and rescue romance with a strong heroine, this might be the book for you. I highly recommend starting with Hudson's story, California #1 in The Billionaire's Obsession series since Hudson, Jax, Cooper and Chase are all related. Happy Reading!***

NEW RELEASE: CRUEL NORTH (THE NORTH BROTHERS) BY JB SALSBURY

 


 

 

NOW AVAILABLE



He let her go once.

This time he wants to keep her.

 

Cruel North, an all-new surprise pregnancy, forced proximity contemporary romance with sizzling chemistry from New York Times bestselling author JB Salsbury is now live.

 

"Salsbury bursts the heart wide open with Cruel North. From dramatic reveals to captivating romance, Hayes and Vanessa tap into a goldmine of temptation. From every angle, Salsbury strikes a home run." - (Isha C., Blogger, Reader, Reviewer - Hopeless Romantic)

 



Cruel North is an angsty second-chance, enemies to lovers romance where the most hated man in the North Brothers world finally gets brought to his knees.

A teenage girl with my eyes and a familiar glare, strolls into my life and she’s calling me Dad.

Vanessa was my high school girlfriend and the smartest person I knew. She had a plan, a future, and she swore nothing would get in the way. Until she became pregnant. I thought we agreed on our plan. I sent her the money. Then she disappeared.

Her parents told me she was in South America for a year. They told me she needed space. I never heard from her again.

Seventeen years later and she’s back. I’m staring into those green eyes that used to tempt and taunt me. But it’s not just about us anymore. We have a daughter.

Wanting to get to know her, I convince them to move in with me for one month. I’m so angry with Vanessa and she seems to be equally upset. Every insult from her smart mouth invites me to engage. The brutal chemistry between us ignites old embers. I wish I could hate her. Instead, I want her.

But too much time has passed, and I fear some hurts run too deep to heal.
At the end of thirty days, I’ll have to let them go.
Unless I figure out a way to keep them.

REVIEW: CRUEL NORTH (THE NORTH BROTHERS) BY JB SALSBURY

 

Cruel North (The North Brothers #4)Cruel North by J.B. Salsbury

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


What I love most about the North Brothers series is the depth of emotion. No two characters are the same, yet their vulnerabilities hold a similarity that is relatable. Salsbury bursts the heart wide open with Cruel North. From dramatic reveals to captivating romance, Hayes and Vanessa tap into a goldmine of temptation. From every angle, Salsbury strikes a home run.

Keep reading for a look inside Cruel North!

Hayes

“Let’s go.” I open the passenger side door to my car, and when Haven climbs in, I give Hudson a chin lift, thanking him for having my back.

He nods back with a look that says I better be nice.

Fuck me. My own twin acts like I’m the enemy here. Like I’d hurt my own daughter?

I climb behind the wheel and fire up the engine, grateful for the steady hum of the supercharged V8 that cuts through an uncomfortable silence.

“Nice ride,” Haven says and touches all the buttons and knobs. “Is this real leather?” She runs her hands along the seats, and I notice that she has long elegant fingers that are exactly like Vanessa’s.

“Yes.” I force my eyes to the road, feeling oddly uncomfortable with such precious cargo.

“I have a Jeep,” she says. “It’s a piece of shit.”

I’m not great at conversation on a good day, so I grunt like a fucking caveman.

“So what’s it like?”

I see out of my peripheral that she’s facing me. “What’s what like?”

“Being a millionaire.”

I lose the battle with my eyeballs, and they dart toward her before I wrangle them back to the road. Vanessa’s family has a net worth equal to mine. I can’t imagine Haven grew up without.

I clear the discomfort from my throat. “I hear you’re a pretty good athlete.” My tone sounds like I’m accusing her of something, and I don’t know why. Maybe I should’ve just let Hudson take her home. I suck at this.

“I am. I’m good at a lot of things.”

Confident, like her mom. Good.

“Oh yeah?”

“Mm-hm.” She doesn’t elaborate.

I take the bait. “Like what?”

She shrugs and looks casually out the front window. “You want the condensed version of my life so that you don’t have to actually invest?”

“No,” I say dryly and grip the steering wheel tighter. 

The uncomfortable silence is back and goes on for so long that I start to sweat. I flip on the AC and aim the vent right at my face.

“Listen, uh… Haven… I…” I sound like an idiot who can’t string two words together. “I’ve been thinking—”

“About how you wanted my mom to abort me?”

Fuckin’ hell. “No.”

“About how you abandoned her and left her to have a baby alone at—”

“Jesus, no.”

“About how you’re a rich selfish asshole who couldn’t even be bothered to look for the woman who carried your unwanted child to see if maybe she needed anything like money for food or clothes or a safe place to live or—”

“Haven, stop.”

“—or money so that kid could play sports and afford equipment so she wouldn’t get made fun of for wearing the wrong shoes or sweatpants to games.”

“What are you talking about? Your mom’s family is wealthy.”

“Yeah, well, thanks to you and your mighty sperm, they disowned her.” She tilts her head, just like her mother does before she delivers a brutal tongue lashing. “Ohh, you didn’t know that, did you?” She makes a tsking sound. “You would’ve if you looked for us. Ever heard of Google, asshole?”

“That’s enough.”

“Hey, you’re the one who wanted me to ride with you—”

“I get it. You want to hurt me. I’d do the same in your shoes.”

She slams her mouth closed without response. She faces forward and crosses her arms at her chest. “Whatever.”

“We need to… get to know each other. The three of us have a lot to talk about.”

“I have nothing to say to you.”

I cough out a laugh. “Could’ve fooled me.”

“Are we almost to Uncle Hudson’s house?”

He gets to be Uncle Hudson, and I’m Asshole? My jaw ticks. “Yes.”

I use the rest of the time in the car to breathe in and out and try to calm my temper. Vanessa’s parents disowned her. I shouldn’t be surprised, and yet, I am. She’s their only child, for fuck’s sake.

I have a million questions and worry I won’t get the chance to ask Vanessa if we can’t even be in the same room without fighting. Time feels like it’s slipping away, and I don’t know how to grab onto it. But I know I have to try.

I pull up to Hudson’s building. Haven makes a reach for her seatbelt.

“I have a proposition for you.”

Her hand freezes on the buckle, and her eyes narrow.

My God, it’s like looking in a mirror. “One month in New York. Rent free, all expenses paid, you and your mom.”

She eyes me cautiously. “What’s the catch?”

Here’s where I might lose her. “You live with me.”

“Yeah, right.” She snorts. “Mom will never agree to that. I’m pretty sure she hates you.”

She’s not exactly my favorite person right now either. “Leave the convincing to me.”

Her smile is a little wicked. “You’re either really brave or really stupid.”

“I’m not stupid.”

Her brows pop high on her forehead. “You clearly don’t know my mom.”

I don’t respond because she’s right. But she’s also wrong. I got the fiery Vanessa Osbourne to care for me once. A month in New York shouldn’t be too hard.

Excerpt

 

A figure moved behind the foggy glass. Driven by curiosity, I pushed my hands into the gap and slid open the door, and I froze.

A girl in a light-pink tutu was dancing to the music. She appeared weightless and in a world of her own. Her black hair was piled on top of her head but a few curls framed her face. She looked like a doll come to life. Heart-shaped lips, porcelain skin and fairylike features. 

Something seemed familiar about the girl, but I couldn’t pin-point what exactly.

She was so lost in the music, she seemed oblivious to me. Her eyes were closed. I’d never thought I’d enjoy ballet but watching this girl, I couldn’t imagine tearing myself away. My mind turned blank, my heartbeat slowed and every violent thought drained out of me. 

A yap sounded somewhere, tearing me from my reverie. The girl’s eyes snapped open and her poise fell as she turned to me. Eyes as dark as bitter chocolate. Those eyes reminded me of the person who was at the top of my to-kill list if peace between the Famiglia and the Camorra ever ended. Nevio fucking Falcone.

And this was no other than his twin Greta Falcone. 

Terror twisted her face. “No!”

I tensed, raising my arms. She didn’t give me a chance to explain anything. Instead she rushed past me, only leaving a whiff of vanilla in her wake, as she fled the house. I whirled around, watching her sprint up the slope leading toward the mansion at a speed I hadn’t thought possible with her petite frame.

“Fuck!” Had I just terrified Greta Falcone enough that she was running away screaming? 

Remo Falcone wouldn’t give me a chance to explain. He’d just put a bullet in my head. If Dad didn’t kill me first.

Excerpt

 

I swear to fate, she’s been purposely trying to tempt me since that day she told me she loved me as a brother. Walking around in a short, silky robe at night. Moaning when she’s alone in her bed. 

I heard her vibrator going last night and nearly beat down the door to get to her.

All I can say is, thank Fate Geo needs to run in the woods every night because it’s the only thing that helps me keep the edge off.

Right now, she’s in a bra top and tight little shorts. Her toned legs look amazing, and her ass…

Aw, fuck.

I can’t stop the low growl that comes rocketing out of my mouth when she pushes that ass back toward me. She walks her hands backward toward her feet and holds onto her ankles, looking through her legs at me.

That’s when I see it. Or rather, don’t see it. The wedding band is gone from her finger.

Oh, fuck.

“Hey, Channing.” Her voice sounds throaty. Sexy as hell.

I sprout a chub. “What”--I clear my throat– “What are you doing?”

“Yoga. What’s it look like?” 

I can’t stop myself from prowling closer. Far too close. “Need help?” I shouldn’t have said it. 

Brotherly.

Loves me like a brother.

But she took the ring off. Maybe she’s just cleaning it? Or was putting on lotion? Maybe she doesn’t wear it when she does yoga?

“No.” She flows through some more poses, then lingers in the same position, with  her ass turned back toward me.

I reach for her hips without even knowing I’m going to do it. My hands grip the sides of her pelvis, another growl erupting from my lips. 

I expect Julia to get pissed. Maybe kick me in the face. 

Instead, she freezes. Like she’s waiting to see what I’ll do next. 

I need to back the fuck off. Get my hands off my brother’s mate. I force myself to release her and take a step back. 

She stands and turns, her cheeks flushed from being upside down. 

“Can you lift your leg above your head?” I go for light and flirty. My playboy persona.

“Why?”

“Could come in handy.” I wink and turn to walk away. 

I scent her arousal before I do, and it takes everything in me not to whirl, pick her up and carry her to her bedroom. Or better yet, drop to that yoga mat and…

Nope. Not happening.

Except, why not? She may say she loves me as a brother, but her body is responding to mine. Maybe I just need to give her a little pleasure. Get her to shift her perspective of me. 

Oh. Fuck me.

From her bedroom, I hear the sound of that damn vibrator again. A tiny whimper.

I can’t help it. I’m reaching for her bedroom doorknob before I’ve even decided to move. And once inside…I can’t stop myself.
