Review: Filthy Rich by Raine Miller

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Standalone - Blackstone Dynasty #1
Release: November 15, 2016
Length: 306 pages

Billionaire Caleb Blackstone lives in the glamorous world of wealth and success, with every material luxury. But the moment he sees Brooke Casterley, none of that matters. Caleb is filled with a raw, undeniable need that he can’t ignore…for a girl who is so completely different from everything and everyone he’s ever known.

Only Brooke isn’t looking for love. She knows all too well just how much damage the wrong guy can do. Still, what sane, broke British girl can resist the charms of an incredibly sexy, chivalrous billionaire? What starts as flirtation quickly turns into all-consuming passion. Nothing could have prepared her for the searing heat of Caleb’s touch—or just how much she craves him.

Their whirlwind romance is the stuff of high-society fantasy—but for every moment of pleasure, there is a cost. Past mistakes and tragedy shadow them both…and falling for him might be the kind of trouble she can’t afford.

MY REVIEW

It's been two years since we've seen anything new from Raine Miller, but with Filthy Rich, she came back with a bang! I fellin love with Caleb Blackstone within the first chapter and the further along I got with this story, the more that love solidified!

Caleb was handsome, refined, considerate, generous, a gentleman, had a huge heart, fell helplessly in love with Brooke almost instantly, and was obviously "filthy rich". Brooke grabbed my heart from the get go as well and I was anxious to find out the reason(s) for her innate sadness. I wasn't prepared for the truth.

Actually Jack, I could indeed handle it. Doesn't mean I had to like it. My heart broke for Brooke but it did explain a lot of what shaped this young woman into the formidable force she was. Despite the pain of her past (or maybe because of it), Brooke was as beautiful as Caleb, inside and out. These two were made for each other. Together they created something so special. Something worth holding on to for all time. Caleb's father's wisdom rang true throughout this story and I adore each time that Caleb dwelled upon his words.

There was tons of drama and the author dished it out in ways that made me laugh, cringe, and become tense with the suspense. In particular, Janice was a freaking ridiculous hot mess!

This was a fantastic introduction to what I can tell will be a truly awesome series. I'm excited to learn more about the infamous Blackstones and can't hardly wait for the next installment!
