Book Description:
When mystery shopper Shannon Jacoby meets billionaire Declan McCormick with her hand down a toilet in the men’s room of one of his stores, it’s love at first flush in this hilarious new romantic comedy from New York Times bestselling author Julia Kent.
My Opinion:
This book is hysterical. You will laugh all the way through. I really enjoyed it. Two words "toilet girl"- enough said! Julia brings Shannon to life in this romantic comedy. I enjoyed Shannon and Declan together. This tale starts off with Shannon being a secret shopper and she is evaluating a coffee shop when she spots Declan, in all his sexyness, stops in and then everything starts to fall apart for Shannon. I totally enjoyed this book. I love Shannon's snarky attitude and quick wit and Declan is all the better for backing her up. Billionaire or not he is awesome. These two have banter between them and some amazing comebacks with each other. I found it funny and love this type of humor in books. I am really glad I picked this one up!
Her sister's and mother are in this start of the series and they are just as fun as Shannon and Declan. Shannon's work buddies are a treat too. This was a quick Audiobook and a great start to the series. I am now on book three of it. I do see myself reading the full series as it is just too good to pass up! I recommend this book for a light, fun read!
I also really enjoyed the narrator and I think she will quickly become one of my favorites!
I give this book 5 of 5 Stars!
Author Bio:
New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author Julia Kent writes romantic comedy with an edge. From billionaires to BBWs to new adult rock stars, Julia finds a sensual, goofy joy in every contemporary romance she writes. Unlike Shannon from Shopping for a Billionaire, she did not meet her husband after dropping her phone in a men's room toilet (and he isn't a billionaire). She lives in New England with her husband and three sons in a household where the toilet seat is never, ever, down.

I am pretty sure I have this book, and you had me hysterical. I am always looking for more rom-coms. Sometimes I just want to laugh, and I always want romance, so they are my perfect read.
