Not The Billionaire

He's a billionaire, hurt in the past. She's a country girl with no idea who he is. Will a case of mistaken identity lead to happily ever after or will his well-intentioned charade tear them apart? All women ever want from Sebastian Schultz is his family’s money, which is why he’s avoided dating like the plague. But when Genevieve Willis walks into the Schultz building, ranting about her meeting with the cold fish head of the company, unaware that’s exactly who she’s speaking to, he’s immediately drawn to her beauty and sense of humor. Sebastian can’t resist this opportunity to finally get to know a woman without the stigma of the Schultz name, so he introduces himself as Kurtis from Public Relations, and implores his playboy younger brother to act as president in his place. Genevieve can’t believe her luck landing her dream job, and she can’t stop thinking about Kurtis, the sweet PR guy, she met on her first day. When they’re thrown together to work on the biggest charity event of the year, the attraction between them grows stronger. But something’s off with Kurtis, and she can’t quite put her finger on it. As they spend more time together and the fundraiser gets closer, will it become impossible for Sebastian to conceal his real identity? And will Genevieve forgive him when she learns the truth?

One minute I'm a promising law grad with grand ideas of changing people's lives; the next I'm persona non grata thanks to a tiny little incident where I may or may not have stabbed my boss. Now I'm unemployable, broke, and almost desperate enough to move back home with my parents. This is rock bottom. Until it hits me in the very annoying but not wrong advice of my mother. It's just as easy to fall in love with a rich man as it is a poor man. And that, ladies and gentlemen, is why I'm on a Hail Mary mission to an exclusive resort in Hawaii to finally find...the one. The billionaire one, that is. But when a sinfully sexy bartender gets it into his head that maybe he's the one, things start to get complicated. I'll have to decide whether Mother really does know best or if it's time to finally trust my heart...

A fake marriage is the answer to their problems, but love was never part of the deal. Augustus “Gus” Schultz has always been the black sheep of the family, and he’s earned that label with his playboy ways. His greatest desire is to prove to his father that he’s put all that behind him and is worthy of taking on a bigger role at Schultz Chocolate. But when he’s asked to step away from the company for appearances’ sake, he must devise a plan to convince everyone he’s changed. Merritt Christianson loves helping women feel pretty and confident, and her dream of taking her safe, organic cosmetics line global is about to come true. Until she doesn’t secure the capital she was hoping for and is forced to consider a crazy alternative. Gus thinks his proposal is ingenious. A fake marriage contract with Merritt, who is brilliant and respectable—not to mention beautiful—will demonstrate his ability to commit and fit in with the company’s wholesome image. Merritt thinks he’s lost his mind, especially since they can’t stand each other. But how can she refuse when he offers to fund her business expansion as part of the terms of their marriage? And if pretend crosses the line to real, how will they come away with hearts unscathed?

Her brother’s best friend is the guy of her dreams. If only he’d see her as more than a friend. Skylar Schultz has spent half her life loving Franky Middlebury, the only guy who’s ever seen her as more than heiress to the Schultz Chocolate fortune, but she’s always been firmly positioned in the friend zone. As much as she cherishes their friendship, she wishes he would see her as so much more than his best friend’s little sister. Things aren’t going well for Franky. His girlfriend left him, he’s unhappy as a partner in his father’s law firm, and he feels stuck in a life he didn’t really want. The one bright spot is Skylar. She’s there for him in a way nobody else is, filling his stressful days with laughter and offering unending encouragement. As their friendship progresses, they begin to rely on each other as they're faced with family drama and career changes. All the while, Skylar hopes their newfound closeness will blossom into more, but Franky is more complicated than the happy-go-lucky guy he appears to be. And when someone new walks into his life, will she be the fresh start he’s been longing for or will he finally see the one who’s been there for him the whole time?

In "How To Be A Billionaire" erfahren Sie, wie sich manche Leute in einem ganz bestimmten Bereich menschlichen Strebens hervorgetan haben, nämlich im Streben nach Geld. Hier geht es nicht um das halbe Prozent der amerikanerikanischen Bevölkerung, das über einen Kapitalwert von einer Million Dollar verfügt. Hier geht es um Amerikaner, die 1.000 bis 40.000 Millionen Dollar ihr eigen nennen. In diesem Buch wird zum ersten Mal diese massive Anhäufung von privatem Vermögen ausführlich untersucht. Hierbei stützt sich Fridson verstärkt auf Biographien und journalistische Reportagen, die die Findigkeit, den Elan und die Rücksichtslosigkeit dokumentieren, auf die sich diese Vermögen gründen. Er enthüllt die wichtigsten Taktiken, Prinzipien und Strategien, die die Reichen superreich gemacht haben, wie z. B: "Verstoße gegen die Regeln", "Nachahmung ist besser als Innovation", "Beherrsche den Markt", "Investiere in politischen Einfluß" und "Übertrumpfe die Konkurrenz". Erläutert wird das gesamte Repertoire, angefangen bei Verhandlungstechniken über Tipps für den besten Deal bis hin zur Wahl der Branche und zum Börsengang des Unternehmens. Eine unverzichtbare Lektüre für jeden, der (erfolg)reicher werden will. (12/99)

never asked Hemi Te Mana to rescue me. It was true that I had a lousy job. Not to mention a lousy apartment and too much responsibility, although it was a responsibility I wouldn't have given up for the world. That still didn't mean I needed rescuing, if that was what you'd call the situation I ended up in. And anyway, I knew that a multimillionaire Maori CEO with too many muscles, a tribal tattoo, and a take-no-prisoners attitude was way, way out of my league. So, no, I didn't ask him to, but he rescued me anyway. Because Hemi was fierce. But you know what I found out? So was I.
