New York Billionaires #1

Billionaire Boss

Rate this book
Our deal was simple. One night. Fake names. No strings attached.

Until it turns out he’s my new boss...

I couldn’t believe my luck when I got sent to a work conference in Hawaii. Living the dream after years of pulling myself up by my bootstraps.

The sand, the palm trees and the blue water were straight out of a romantic fantasy.

So was the guy at the beachfront bar, let’s be honest. Blue eyes. Broad-shouldered in his business suit but with a rough-around-the-edges swagger and a filthy mouth.

We laughed and had a night of crazy passion that enlightened me in every possible way. I understood what dreams coming true might actually feel like.

And then I left without saying goodbye.

That was two months ago and I’ve mostly been able to put him out of my mind. I’ve been busy landing my dream job in New York City.

Imagine my surprise when my new boss turns out to be Mr. Dirty Talking Swagger.

He’s been thinking about me too, he says, his blue eyes dancing. He’s been searching for me since that night. And he wants to see me in his office…

Billionaire Boss is a steamy contemporary billionaire romance and the first book in the New York Billionaires series, starring the four Maddox brothers. Each book in the series is a complete standalone with an HEA.

She graduated at the top of her class, but it wasn’t an easy task, She put in some crazy hours of studying, the exhausting internships, the working two jobs to pay her own way through college: …..


And now she is an newly-minted financial advisor, straight out of college and fighting her way to the top of a dog-eat-dog, man’s world



The scene is as picture perfect as…well, as a life-long fantasy of being sent to Hawaii for a fully paid-for work trip can be…… Now throw in the mix a sexy 6.2 man in well-made suit…….

While on the island they shared one amazing night together .. That is until Cash wakes up the following morning to find himself ghosted. Having no way to contact her Due to the fact that they never shared their real names …… Cash has no choice but to head back home, due to some work issues,

Now on the other hand, After a spectacular night with a stranger Dusty decides that she’s ready to hit New York work scene and she applies for a job in a big conglomerate corporation, She could not believe her pure luck When she got the job with all the perks that came along with it……..

2.5 Sweet Short Smut Stars

This was cute. But it was way more cheesy and insta-lovey than I was in the mood for. This was my first Julie Capulet (I think) and the vibe was a little different than I was expecting. So definitely perhaps an expectations/timing thing.

I’ll try another one of hers when I’m in the mood for this brand of romance.

Billionaire Boss is by Julie Capulet. This will eventually be a series, one book for each of the Maddox brothers. But for this first book, we concentrate on Cash Maddox and I can’t wait for you to meet him. The blurb pretty much says it all but we’ll see if I can toss in a couple more things that might convince you to read this!



Dusty Rose is twenty three years old. After growing up with a single mom who worked her tail off to provide for Dusty and her sister, Dusty is ready to take the world by storm. Straight out of college, she was hired by a firm in Austin as a financial advisor. Her firm is sending her to Hawaii for a work conference and for the first time, Dusty feels like she’s made it while she enjoys the beautiful sand and surf. Dusty is used to men looking at her as nothing more than a sex object, never as a colleague. She is a pro at fending off their advances. But when she sees the sexiest guy she has ever seen at the hotel bar, maybe this should be the one time she lets down her defenses and live in the moment. Just for one night, no names, just sex. Then she steals out in the morning.



Cash Maddox is twenty seven years old and is one of the four Maddox brothers. Rather than work for his father’s firm, Cash struck out on his own, taking two of his brothers with him. Cash is very rich and has women throwing themselves at him constantly. He just never feels enough of a connection with any of them for it to ever become anything. He is determined that he will not settle for just anyone. That he will eventually find “the one!” When he first saw “her” in Hawaii, he knew she was something special. And their night together was one he will never forget. But she was gone the next morning before he could convince her to give him her contact info. When he returns home, it is to a whole host of problems he is having within his company but he is completely distracted by his memory of the woman in Hawaii. He will do whatever it takes to find her and he tries. To no avail. Until she just magically walks into his office as his company’s new hire.

When Dusty returned to Austin from the conference, it was with a new determination to be successful. And to do that, she needs to find a better company in New York. When she gets hired on to her dream firm, she feels like all her dreams are coming true. Until she walks into the CEO’s office to be introduced and realizes it’s him, her dream man from Hawaii.

“Is it possible to fall in love this fast? With a total stranger?”

And so it begins. Cash is determined to do whatever it takes to make Dusty his for good. And Dusty, no matter how much she can’t seem to resist him, is determined to stay away from Cash, not to let a man steal away everything she has worked her entire life to achieve. Because she is convinced that if she gives in, that Cash would leave, just like all men do. And she won’t let herself be taken advantage of.

“We’re like magnets who can’t resist each other’s pull.”

I loved this book. Julie is the master of lust at first sight romances. I loved how perplexed Cash was at his obsession with Dusty. He can’t figure out why he just can’t let it go. But, he doesn’t fight it. He just goes with it. Dusty can fight it all she wants but he always gets what he wants in the end. Dusty is the only woman for him and he is not letting her go.



We get to know Cash’s other three brothers and I can’t wait to get their stories in the future. But for now, I hope you fall in love with Cash and Dusty just as I did. There is an extended epilogue you can download and it was perfect!!! So don’t miss it!

YESSS!!! SAFE romance Billionaire boss is so freakin hot of course I will read it! 😍 I know I can trust this author every time her book comes out cause it’s always safe and no cheating. And especially this one is very special… From the beginning till the end of the book like oh my goodness 🥺🥺🙏🏼

Especially when the hero is the one who really PURSUE THE HEROINE SO MUCH… TOTALLY YES ❤️❤️❤️

If you never read from this author. The author writes a great safe romance and fast romance too and super romantic all the way 😍😍 Which I’m so into though 😁 It’s actually best when you read this book after you read a bad romance book from other author, because it totally helped tho. That’s my medicine lol.

SO THE STORY STARTS: The heroine arrives at Hawaii for investment conference from her company that she’s working with. From the beginning you can see how smart the heroine is and she knows all about the investment business. No joke. (So it’s great to see that! cause sometimes other authors like to write a heroine who doesn’t love her job even tho the job is actually great tho… like they write a heroine who doesn’t even smart at her job which is disappointing cause as a woman myself i like to see a strong smart woman even in romance novel😁 just saying). The heroine goes to the hotel where the conference will be held… When she arrived, some random guy tries to flirt with her but she doesn’t flirt back. And the next day she went to the beach after the conference… When she goes to the beach and relax on the sand enjoying her book with her sexy bikini, some surf guy tries to flirt with her again… He even convince her to surf with him but she declined cause she never try it ever. He said to go for it and she then agreed. Once she tried it and it was great, the surfer guy tries to flirt with her again by inviting her to go with him at night. She politely declined and they part ways… When she reach to the hotel, a guy say something nice to her about her surfing… He then flirts with her and even be so honest about what he wants with her. But she declined and went away… The next day the heroine went to the bar alone enjoying her time with her drink that she almost pay. Then the same guy from yesterday sitting next to her and offer to pay for her drink. And immediately put the heroine’s credit card away and offer his to the bartender… (OH MY). They made a hot conversation about what they should do tonight, well the hero obviously is the one who really made an effort to do it and pursue the heroine so much… Both agreed and they had a spectacular hot night together 😋😋😋 AND YES THE GUY IS THE HERO!!! The next day the heroine have to go for her morning flight, so she quietly dressed up and leave a note for the hero thanking him for the night. The heroine leaves and the hero wakes up later… The hero tries to find the heroine but he found her note saying that. He immediately goes to the receptionist asked about the heroine but they have no idea… The hero goes back to new york on the first day and immediately starts to look for the heroine… Like he tried everything to find her…

But when they meet again after two months later, it was a very HOT SCENE 😙😙😙 Totally romantic, hot and heart pounding 🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️ LIKE WHAT A REUNION!!!!

‼️‼️‼️TRIGGERS: Alcohol, PTSD, death and little violence.

‼️‼️‼️THE HEROINE IS A VIRGIN.

‼️‼️‼️THE HERO IS OVER THE TOP POSSESSIVE PROTECTIVE BILLIONAIRE ALPHA MALE.

The hero is not a manwhor3 tho which is great. The hero personality is like very much don’t give a fvck type of guy and he is known to be a workaholic and the BOSS of his company that he worked with his brothers. The hero’s age is 27 years old…

‼️‼️‼️THE HEROINE. The heroine is a virgin, 23 years old and she went through a lot with her current and past life… Her personality is very smart, wise and kind. She also have a great relationship with her family and a family person. Like the hero… She gets scared sometimes but the hero always makes sure not to be.

‼️‼️‼️THE HERO HIMSELF IS SOOO OBSESSED AND WANTS THE HEROINE SOOOO BADLY…. NO DOUBT. Since day one and for all the freakin time. He is very determined to make the heroine his and never back down. He is that addicted to her and always say it out loud! With no hesitation! The hero then made a office for the heroine and the office room has to be next to his cause he can’t stand not to see the heroine even for a minute 😏 The hero always likes to clean the heroine and make sure she’s taken care of like mentally physically and emotionally 🥺❤️ The hero even make it clear to the heroine about his past and everything since the beginning of the relationship. He wants to be serious with her since the day he found her… Like no playing around, no games. She makes him so much better, when she’s around the hero is more calmer than ever… HE IS ONLY SOFT ONLY TO HER 🥺 HE STALKED HER, HE PURSUE HER SO MUCH….

“MINE. Mine. Mine. Mine”
Since day one!!!!
Like wow.

“now I’m going to devour the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen because I really don’t know how to handle how hard and fast I’m fucking falling for her. Now I know why they call it falling.”

“Actually, scratch that. I am
happy about it. Happy isn’t an emotion I’ve had a lot to do with. Until now. Until that day on the beach when a Texan girl in a tiny little leopard print bikini strolled past my table. Now it’s the only emotion I can feel. That she exists. That she’s mine.”

“I’m not a fucking stalker, but when you’re as addicted to perfection in human form as I am, you have to take certain measures.”

“I’m so fucking in love with her she’s become the sun to me, and I won’t risk losing her again. I’ll be groveling until the day I die if it takes that long to convince her we’re meant for each other.”

“I think I’ve loved you since the minute I saw you, Texas. I’m obsessed with you—in a good way. In a way that’s real and monumental and has basically transformed me from someone who only thinks about work to someone who only thinks about you. And how I might be able to get you to stop running from me.”

Oh my goodness 🥺❤️❤️❤️


‼️‼️‼️VERY HOT S3X SMUT SCENES YESSS🔥🔥🔥🔥THE HERO IS ADDICTED TO THE HEROINE’S BODY SO MUCH ❤️❤️❤️❤️

“Tasting you for the first time. Fucking hell, baby, you’re heaven on earth. You fucking slayed me. I was instantly, totally addicted. And it only got worse—exponentially worse, Texas. Tasting you, holding you, being inside you as you came around my spilling cock. I couldn’t believe how fucking beautiful you were and how good you felt. Nothing in my life compared to that. And you want to know what’s even more intense than that?”

“I’ve thought about you every night. All day, every day. Dreaming of fucking you just like this.”

“And not just because of the sex. Yes, the sex was phenomenal. But we also connected in a way that went beyond just physical—which, I can admit, has never, ever happened to me before in my life. Not even fucking close.”


😏🔥


‼️‼️‼️NOT MANY JEALOUS SCENES but there was a few…

“I can tell by her body language she’s not interested. But he’s persistent. For some reason this annoys the fuck out of me.”

“Surfer Boy is gone,” he comments. “Which is probably a good thing because I’d be tempted to throttle the little punk all over again.”


‼️‼️‼️IT HAD SEPARATION but it was before they were serious and it was after the one night stand. For two months. But both never go to anyone else and so celibate.

“There hasn’t been anyone else for me either. I haven’t been able to even look at another woman after that night in Hawaii. I don’t know what you did to me but you fucking branded me with your sweet perfection. I fucking need you. Right now.”


‼️‼️‼️THERE WAS A EX GIRLFRIEND FROM THE HERO THAT SHOWS UP BUT ONLY TWICE. Never more and not too annoying… NO EX BOYFRIEND that shows up from the heroine.

‼️‼️‼️NO DRAMA WITH OM. Only with OW but it was not a big deal, not too annoying and not too much and only once.

The drama is more about them and the company tho.

Thankfully there’s no more of the OW DRAMA cause I don’t like that 😂

‼️‼️‼️LOCATION: New York City and Hawaii.

‼️‼️THE CHEMISTRY IS AMAZING AND ROMANTIC 💜💜💜

Even in the beginning you can feel the chemistry is amazing between the couple. And the whole story is so romantic and just loving ❤️❤️❤️

‼️‼️‼️IT HAS PUSHING AWAY FROM THE HEROINE BUT ONLY TWICE… the hero never ever push the heroine away.

The hero always pursue the heroine so much 🥺

‼️‼️‼️HAPPY ENDING.

Married and have babies…


‼️‼️‼️I received this ARC for an honest review.
















⚡️⚡️⚡️THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR READING MY REVIEW. Even if you hate my review i still say thank you so much cause you spend your time reading this one👻 I’m not a professional reviewer or professional reader. I’m just someone who likes to read novels that is safe and no cheating whatsoever. And many more that i like lol😆 I DID NOT GET PAID TO DO THIS. This is just basically me writing my review based on my personal opinion about the book if it’s safe or what I will write it all down just the way i like it 😏 I know my review can be very straightforward with the way i write it down all of it and not a professional writing because again I’m not professional reviewer anyway. And whatever negativity you might think of what i write or what my thoughts are on my review about a book, me and you are not the same person. I have my own types of book and you have your own. You have your own thoughts and same with me. You can’t control what I should write on my review and neither should I. I WILL NOT TOLERATE NEGATIVE COMMENT AND I WON’T EVER REPLIED TO IT. If you still don’t like what i write and my disclaimer here, IT’S A YOU PROBLEM. NOT MINE😙 HAVE A GREAT DAY❤️❤️❤️

Types of book that I’m looking for: SAFE, safe all the way from the beginning till the end🥵 No cheating, no unnecessary childish drama. Not too much OW DRAMA cause they are loud and annoying lol. NO to still having feelings about a ex especially wants go get back together tf no. NO to friends with benefits and still seeing other people type of sh*t. NO to hero or heroine who said i love you and have been obsessed but still likes to fvck around yeah big NO to that sh*t. NOOO to still married or still in a relationship with someone else while liking the main character, yeah they have to be single since the beginning. NOOO to a long separation and have someone else they have s3x with during the separation. NOO to too many times of separation and breaking up sh*t. NOO to toxic narcissistic characters.
I preferred the characters are loyal to the core, over the top possessive heroes since the beginning and never stops, main characters have unique jobs or talents, the hero adores and obsessed with the heroine so much, the hero fell harder for the heroine and don’t want let her go and fight for her. And most importantly EPILOGUE AND ESPECIALLY THE DECADES LATER SCENE…. HAPPY ENDING IS A MUST. Chemistry is a must too 🙏🏼

Let me start by saying that I decided to hate read this from the very beginning mainly because of the virgin trope. So I'm kind of biased already and leaning towards the negative side, and sure as crap won't give this a 5⭐ rating. Yet I still went ahead and finished it, why? Curiosity, I guess. 🤷‍♀️

I originally wrote this as a long rant review, but I don't see the need to put that out anymore, other than saying this one isn't for me.

While I'm not fond of innocent heroines anymore, I still hoped that my initial disdain would prove to be wrong. That maybe somewhere along the story something would change my mind and eventually make me fall in love with the MCs. It did happen to me on numerous occasions. There are books that became my favorites, although I wanted to dislike them from the very start.

Unfortunately, that's not the case with this book. It wasn't something I hated—hatred is just too strong—but I also didn't come to like it. But I was extremely disappointed, especially with Dusty (23). I love a smart, competent, and hardworking heroines, and she used to be one. But apparently, spending one night with Cash (27) turned her into a pathetic, dumb, and horny mess. She couldn't see straight whenever he was around. And worse, she let her hormones and body-betraying syndrome decide for her.

As for Cash, he's the typical young, rich, handsome, and workaholic CEO. And with his business, he only settles for ONS, and when he dates, those only last for a few weeks. Yet seeing Dusty and spending a night with her made him fall for her quickly—love at first sight, to be exact. I don't understand the fixation; maybe I'm not supposed to. His character didn't grow on me; I feel like he used his position and money a lot of times here to get what he wanted. And the huge imbalance between them somehow makes me feel uneasy, and I'm not really a fan of that.

Suspending disbelief is way harder to do in this book. She got promoted to a managerial position after four days of being hired because she caught the responsible person for the insider trading in the act. And after that, it was announced to everyone that they're in a relationship, which gave me secondhand embarrassment, but that's on me and my issue with public gestures.

Anyhoo, this isn't for me. The insta-love, other woman drama, body-betraying stuff, and too many spicy scenes aren't really working for me. I honestly feel this doesn't have to be 380+ pages; it could've been cut shorter if some of the sexy scenes were removed. But if readers dig smut (is there too much smut?), then they should go and read this one; it won't disappoint in that aspect.


Book info:
- Insta-love
- Virgin h, experienced H (said he's not a playboy and only do ONS and dates women for weeks)
- Second chance-ish (they had ONS and six weeks later before they meet again)
- Parent abandonment
- Insider trading
- No cheating, omd
- OWD (H's ex wants him back)
- Breakup (h's hobby is to run away)
- HFN (engaged)
- Bonus epilogue (2 yrs then 6 yrs, married with 5 kids)


PS. The second book is about the oldest brother, and it's got a fake-dating trope. The FMC was hired by the MMC to fend off his crazy ex, so readers can definitely expect OWD.

PPS. Also, Ms. Capulet, if you ever read this, can you please not make the FMC another V-card holder? Women enjoy smex too. Why do they have to be pure all the time? 😭💔

▶Apart from all the drama and crazy sex-obsessed MCs, this is just you average, small-town girl on her way to new york meets a handsome stranger whom she looses her virginity to, only for her to find out the next morning that..........OH YES YES ITS HER NEW BOSS!!! THE STRANGER FROM THE NIGHT BEFORE.


▶And then we have this conniving evil ex of the hero who will do ANYTHING to get into the good graces of the hero and she OBVIOUSLY had Hailey-Beiber cheeckbones and PLATINUM hair.



🤣Im joking you guys, but this is pretty accurate.

😒It was a lil annoying that a book that cudve ended in 100 pages was extended upto 300. That wasnt really needed I think.

OH MY FREAKING GOODNESS... WOW...JUST WOW... I'M SWOONING SO HARD RIGHT NOW.🥰
This book just didn't let me put it down for even a single second. Seriously, this one was a marathon read for me, I freaking devoured it.❤️

Everyone needs to meet the ultra swoony, Hot Billionaire Boss who is a freaking beast inside the bedroom and a man who stays, who's there for you no matter what and who will never give up on you, outside it.

I'm in LOVEEEE WITH ACE, MY SWEET CASH MADDOX. I seriously wanted to go inside this book, push Dusty aside and become Ace's Tex for him. That man is just something else and I won't be able to stop singing praises about him.

Dusty Rose is on a work conference in Waikiki, Hawaii. She's an extremely ambitious and career focused woman who also has big dreams and helps her mom and sister.
I adored Dusty Rose for the person she is and I loved her drive and her spirit and just her straight forward attitude. Yet what clicked with me is the sweetness of character she has and the way she cares about her family.

Cash on the other hand is trying to put out a fire that can turn into a huge blaze if not attended to. This investment company is his baby and along with his brothers, Noah and Colton he runs the company together.

Somehow, two strangers meet in holiday paradise and even though they have the hottest freaking night and time of their life, they part ways with no names nor numbers.
It's all Dusty Rose wants as she doesn't want any complications in her life but Cash on the other hand is unable to forget his time spend with his Texas.

I was so amped up and excited to unwrap and see how will Tex and Ace meet. I was so swooning over how Cash aka Ace searches for his Tex and seeing his craziness and madness for her, had me so melting over this guy.

𝑨𝒏𝒚𝒘𝒂𝒚, 𝒘𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝑰’𝒎 𝒕𝒓𝒚𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒕𝒐 𝒔𝒂𝒚 𝒊𝒔 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒔: 𝑰’𝒎 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒈𝒖𝒚 𝒘𝒉𝒐 𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒚𝒔, 𝒘𝒉𝒆𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒘𝒂𝒏𝒕 𝒉𝒊𝒎 𝒕𝒐 𝒐𝒓 𝒏𝒐𝒕.”

That first scene when these two come face to face, finally.... WAS TERRIFIC, EXCITING AND SEDUCING IN ANTICIPATION.

There are fireworks and sparks flying throughout as these two have insane chemistry and let me tell you all of the intimate scenes will drive you crazy not only because of the intensity and passion but especially because of the emotional intimacy that felt just so raw and compellingly passionate. Ahhhh.... Definitely a 𝖯𝖺𝗇𝗍𝗒 𝗆𝖾𝗅𝗍𝖾𝗋 this one was.🥵🔥🌶️🌶️🌶️

Thank you a ton, Ms. Capulet for giving us this Must Read Romance and especially for giving us Ace. That man is the perfect husband material and I'd love to have a man like him in real life who's so obsessed over you and cares for you like no other.
I'M BEYOND SWOONING RIGHT NOW. AHHH..ACE.... LOVEEEE YOUUU...💋💋💋💋

I'm so looking forward to and over the top excited for the upcoming books in this series. Loved freaking loved loved loved this one. 5+ 🌟❤️❤️❤️❤️

Ever just need the type of reliable author that offers you the sweetest, hottest instalove, "he moves at the absolute speed of light," "do anything to get the girl" stories around? I have read a lot of books from this author, and they are all so fantastic and swoony, light and fun reading that is so perfect for a lazy weekend.
These men (and women) fall so hard and fast and will stop at nothing to be together, Julie Capulet's books will sweep you off your feet!
Billionaire boss is the first in a new series about 4 brothers. the first brother is Cash Maddox. This story was seriously so fun. Our heroine, Dusty Rose, a lovely Texan girl, was really sweet but also had a lot of guts and grit. She was the perfect balance. She had her own drive along with her own insecurities, which all contributed to the story.
Cash was HOT!!! and really freaking cute, too. I liked that he had a bit more of a softer/sweeter feel to him (only for Dusty) he was still that strong arrogant CEO type that we all love in these stories though so dont feel like you will miss out on that facet of his personality but he definitely had alot more going on, he was not a playboy either which was refreshing as well.
The 2 had a chance encounter at a resort at a conference in Hawaii and without exchanging names or information they shared the best night of their lives together, Dusty left in the morning and disappeared into thin air, Cash was devastated without any information to track her down. Maybe it was fate or the stars aligning, but imagine Cash's surprise when she walks into his office as a new employee a few months later. To say they were both shocked is an understatement....

This story is instalove, I love this when the mood strikes, and it's so great to have an author I know will hook me up.

🤔There is some very mild OW presence, I wouldn't even call it drama. Wont give any more away.
✅️No cheating. They only have eyes for each other.
✅️Office romance, boss/employee, billionaire
✅️Instalove
✅️V Heroine
✅️Hero is NOT a playboy
✅️absolutely obsessed hero


Also, I really loved the reference to Roxie Tucker and the Tucker brothers. Love those Nashville boys so much.(If you haven't read "music city lovers" series, definitely give them a try)

3-3.5 Stars! This was a good book but it was so unrealistic, I couldn’t get into it. This is the first book in ‘New York Billionaires’ series & can be read as a standalone.
I wish I could get a mega wealthy, gorgeous man to fall madly in love with me & bonus if he has a giant shlong and knows how to use it. But how many single, gorgeous, wealthy bachelors are there out there, dating pretty but poor, women? Honestly, that would be exhausting to have someone so “perfect” because you’d never get to slack on your looks and sexual abilities. No thanks. I’d rather just be broke. Ha!
The main characters are Cash/Ace and Dusty/Tex. I liked them both and was rooting for them to work. My main issues were how “perfect” he seemed, how unlikely the plot is and how unrealistic it all was. That being said, it was still a good book, just more fantasy fiction rom-com than just fiction rom-com. I think I’d believe in unicorns before I believed such a man as Cash actually existed. If you know of a man like Cash, please send him my way.
Plenty of ‘sexy times’ with some eye rolling ‘dirty talk’ but it was still entertaining. Some of Cash’s “help”, was a tiny bit creepy. Sweet & over the top, but a bit creepy. Dusty’s back & forth & indecisiveness was rather annoying. Make up your mind already, woman & stick with it!
If you’re looking for a short, insta love, he’s a billionaire who falls first, with plenty of ‘sexy times’ and ends with an HEA ending, then this book is for you.

Another beautiful steamy read!
First, I absolutely love the cover for this book. It fits the story. This one is a bit different, about Cash, a master of the financial world and an alpha, of course, and Dusty, who is a Texas girl, a UT Austin grad, and planning to take no prisoners in the world of finance. She is one strong motivated woman, with goals to accomplish. Meeting Cash is unexpected and not necessarily an addition to Dusty’s plans. There is so much to their story, but I won’t give anymore away. Be prepared for a sizzling time between these two, this is hot, hot, hot! Ms. Capulet writes excellent books and this is definitely one of her best. Highly recommend.

Ooo wauw! This is so my kind of book! I LOVED IT! I really love the big, strong, sexy CEO guy who oozes charms and sex. Cash is totally that guy and on top of that romantic as hell.
Dusty is a fantastic girl with big dreams and a great work ethic. They make the perfect couple but she doesn’t realize it at first. I loved how he fell immediately head over heels for her and becomes a bit obsessed with her. I loved their nicknames as well Ace and Tex.
The best news is that this is the beginning of a new series! We are so lucky, I can’t wait to read the other stories of his brothers. Fun fun fun!.

another winner from this author!

This is another good start to a new series of hot sexy brothers. I love a rich alpha hero and that is exactly what was delivered. This is fairly mainstream romance but it gives out the feels and that is what I need. Very likeable characters and some hot brothers to follow.

Julie Capulet’s new series “New York Billionaires” starts with an exceptional story. Her skillful writing captures the reader’s interest and ensnares us into the intense love story between Cash and Dusty. The characters are well developed and exude such scorchingly hot chemistry, it’s an addictive read. The sensual scenes she describes are emotionally charged and some of the best I have ever read.

This new series introduces us to the four Maddox brothers, who are aptly depicted in this excerpt:
They all stand up when I walk in. All six-foot-something of the four Maddox brothers. Billionaires and the four most “eligible” bachelors in Manhattan, according to some article I read online. They all exude power, wealth and testosterone like they’ve been dipped in it. It’s a little intimidating.

Cash Maddox is a sexy, dominant, dirty-talking, alpha billionaire who is persistent when he finds a love he never expected. He seems grumpy to many, but has a soft, vulnerable side when it comes to Dusty Rose, AKA “Tex”.

Dusty is an innocent, intelligent, determined woman who is wary of trusting any man. Amidst their quickly developing passionate relationship, there is an underlying threat to Cash’s company from an unknown culprit.

This story has everything you could ask for in a heartfelt romance novel. I definitely recommend getting this amazing book! I completely enjoyed it and am looking forward to the next one in the series! I received a free advanced reader copy and am voluntarily leaving my honest review.

I received a copy of this arc in exchange for my honest review. Why I don’t read this author more often is BEYOND ME. She makes me SWOON and PANT , EVERY SINGLE TIME!
Dusty meets Cash while in Hawaii for a business conference. After they both have the most incredible night of their lives together, Dusty leaves for her flight back home. No names or numbers were exchanged, it was their “deal”.
They were to continue with their normal lives. Except neither can forget the incredible night, but with no names or contact information for one another, every search comes up blank.
When Dusty lands her dream job in NYC, she is face to face with him again. The CEO of her new job, is her one night stand from Hawaii.
The chemistry in this is absolutely unreal. You would normally expect the CEO/billionaire boss to be a total a$$, but Cash knows the insane connection they shared, and he refuses to let her go again.
I LOVE a “he falls first” romance, and Cash OWNED that role. I couldn’t get enough of him, neither could Dusty. This was a binge in a sitting type read. I am absolutely feral for these two. If you love billionaire romance, you will EAT THIS UP.
I love a persistent MMC who will do anything to keep the woman he falls for.
Loved this to the moon and back !

This book was an easy and quick read, but I don't think it's for me. Firstly, the instant love aspect put me off. I don't find it realistic for two people to fall in love in just one night, and then on the second time they're together, he pays off all her loans and solves her family's entire life. I found it too cliché.

Secondly, I didn't like the fact that throughout the book, they only called each other by nicknames and never by their names. I found it too much because it seemed like they were living in a fantasy.

I think this part is more personal, but the dirty talk for me was just cringe. I didn't think it was well-written, and all the pet names he called her (baby girl, angel...) just killed the mood for me.

Lastly, I found that sometimes the dialogue became repetitive when switching points of view.

Despite this, I liked the bond of brotherhood among the siblings, and I would be willing to read their stories.

When Dusty meets Cash in Hawaii, neither is aware of the other’s real name, whilst both are attending a conference. When they part ways after one intense night of passion, they only know each other by the names of Tex and Ace. When they meet soon after, Dusty discovers that Cash is not only her boss, but a billionaire. No sooner do they meet, and Dusty discovers that Cash’s company is also at risk of claims being made of insider trader. She finds herself wondering if she can have romance whilst retaining the career she has long desired.
This was a fast-paced book, with plenty of intense adult scenes. It was a quick read, and the beginnings of an interesting series. I look forward to reading about Cash’s brothers.

In a fateful encounter in Hawaii billionaire CEO Cash Maddox was immediately drawn to a beautiful stranger, career woman Dusty Rose. Romance takes hold of the two and a memorable fling happens. Flash forward a couple of months later and Cash and Dusty once again collide with each other being reunited with "the one that got away."

Julie Capulet out alphaed herself with Cash, this guy oozed BDE with every move he made. Dusty may have started off naive but she stood toe to toe with Cash for some swoony interactions. As couple energy goes this pair were as irresistible to each other as to anyone who reads their story. The angst and unbridled attraction between Cash and Dusty took over this work from the start and with the dramatic subplot this author threw in readers can forget about putting this story down.

Lovesick is a real thing in Julie Capulet's instalove romances and she does them so well. This author creates intense emotional scenarios that stretch the heartstrings and leave her audience believing that true love does exist. Billionaire Boss is all the reasons why readers fall in love with Julie Capulet stories!

Sooo much chemistry!!!! Dusty Rose has worked sooo hard to get where she is. She is so close to her dream in working in NYC for respectable and thriving company. On a work conference, going by the beat of her own drum, she crosses paths with a really handsome stranger. They feel so much with each other, but one night, no names…..right??….

Back to their normal everyday lives, Cash, the workaholic, the elusive bachelor billionaire, can’t stop thinking about the woman he met. He feels like he’s going crazy not knowing where she is! Fate steps in and he is all in! She isn’t falling that easily!!! These two are so good together, I love their growing love for each other, his protectiveness and her independence. Dual/First POV. I cannot wait for the rest of the brothers stories!!!!!

Ace and Texas!!! First of all, I adore Julie Capulets writing. I love how she writes in particular her MMC. Not only are they all the epitome of an alpha male, but they are the ones who fall first….hard and fast.

I loved how Cash never let her doubt for a second his true feelings. He was all in from day one and I am here for this!❤️

Here are a few favorite quotes: Dusty, “why would you do that”? Cash “because I want to make all of your dreams come true” 🥺”I’m not buying you Texas, I’m freeing you. Because you’ve freed me”.

If you like he falls first, alpha billionaire, sex god then this book is for you!

~thank you author for the e-arc~


I really like it when romance books are written in an engaging way and, of course, at a good pace that doesn't make me distracted and segwaying. Bonus part if it's more of a light tone 🤚🏽

Anyway, as expected from author Julie, her books are on the lighter side of writing and tones, which I really enjoyed despite the tropes.

The characters are, on the other hand were written decently, with enough personality. There are just some minor things that irked me, most especially the ML.

The romance, of course, is more on the love at first lust, which is common in the author's story. However, I think I felt that the romance could have developed more as well as the characters. The smut 🌶🌶 was written decently as well, although I think it could have been written more in a more eloquent.

Anyway, this was a good read. I really did have a good time reading this.

I didn’t really like this. And it wasn’t even the insta-love, I actually really like that trope more times than not. It was an easy quick read though.

I didn’t like Dusty and Cash. She was annoying and he was cringe. It was just beyond cheesy most of the time and moved at warp speed.

Love the instant chemistry between the main characters. Ace and Tex are on fire. There are more interesting ways to intertwine the timelines and back story between the two I would love to see this author explore.
I want to learn to surf more than I ever have before. I love the ocean. I want to see how my life changes after catching a wave. That part of this story was inspiring.

Tex's back and forth is rather annoying. She annoys herself...and the reader. I couldn't stand how indecisive she was. Like it had to be black or white, one or the other with no shades of Grey. Ace loves her good and nice loved watching that unfold.

Some parts were kind of predictable. All in all a cute, low angst love story.

What an enjoyable book to read! This instant romance was exactly what I was hoping it would be. This steamy love story not only had the spice in the book I was hoping for, but great attention to detail. I love how Julie Capulet was able to really make you feel as if you knew Dusty and Cash. The character development in this book leaves me wishing this becomes a series so I can find out what happens with all of Cash's siblings. Overall a great read that I highly recommend to anyone who enjoys a good steamy romance novel.

Dusty's in Hawaii on a work trip when she meets a gorgeous man who gives her the best night of her life. But, thanks to some serious abandonment issues, she doesn't let anyone in, doesn't form attachments, so she runs at the first sign feelings might be involved. She knows she'll never see her gorgeous guy again, until she does, in the form of her new boss. Yikes. But, little does she know, Cash hasn't stopped thinking about her since their night, and wants a whole lot more of them. He's used to getting what he wants, so this Texan better brace herself...



Cash struck out on his own, away from his father and his expectations, and has made a huge success of himself. He's never been in love, doesn't even really believe in the concept, until his beautiful Tex ghosts him and stays in his mind forever. But when she waltzes back into his life as his company's newest analyst, his alpha obsessive tendencies come out, and he claims her. Now the question is, will Dusty let him, or keep running as is her go to when things get emotional?



Sweet and sexy insta-love, at least on Cash's part. Dusty had a long way to go before she could even think of the l word, though, so thank God for Cash's persistence and his obsession, otherwise they never would have gotten to their HEA. Aside from Dusty's ridiculous running, I liked everything else about their story. Though it's insta-love, it's still well rounded and entertaining. I'm excited to read the other brothers' stories now.

Billionaire Boss marks the beginning of a new series by Julie Capulet and I think it couldn't have started better! I loved the Maddox brothers and the bond between them, plus I think Cash & Dusty have very interesting personal stories and I really liked the love story that the author wrote for them.

Dusty is one of the heroines that I like the most from this author: a girl who was abandoned by her father and who all her life had to fight with her mother and sister to survive, BUT also she has very clear goals, she knows what she wants to achieve in her personal & professional life and works VERY hard to achieve her goals, she's also very sweet, charming and I LOVE that she knows what she wants in life.

Cash is a billionaire who did everything to fulfill his dreams, just like Dusty he has a complex family life, especially when it comes to his father and I still really liked reading him reflecting and talking about him with Dusty . I also liked reading the grumpy and intimidating boss he is, his flirtatious, seductive personality and how kind he can be to the people around him.

Dusty & Cash have one of the best beginnings I've ever read: when they are both in Hawaii for work, their attraction to each other is immediate and they decide to spend a night together, without names or anything else, the problem for both begins when neither can stop thinking about the other and I loved that Cash did everything to find his Tex, and when the reunion finally happened, Dusty discovers that the man who gave him an unforgettable night is his new boss at the job she always dreamed of. And although it seems that things between these two happen very quickly, I think Julie is the best to write these types of stories because Cash is the best when trying to make Dusty happy, supporting her unconditionally and giving her the best moments when he decides to open his heart to her and confess EVERYTHING he feels and the way in which she changed his life. However, and even though I really enjoyed reading Dusty & Cash, I have to say that I didn't like that Cash & Emma didn't understand, nor try to understand, Dusty's fears and mainly that she made him feel that she was exaggerating or that her feelings were baseless.

ARC amablemente proporcionada por la autora a cambio de una reseña honesta

Billionaire Boss marca el inicio de una nueva serie de Julie Capulet y creo que no pudo haber empezado mejor! Amé a los hermanos Maddox y el vinculo que hay entre ellos, además, creo que Cash & Dusty tienen historias personales muy interesantes y me gustó mucho la historia que la autora escribió para ellos.

Dusty es una de las heroínas que más me gustan de esta autora: una chica que fue abandonada por su papá y que toda su vida tuvo que luchar junto a su mamá y su hermana para poder sobrevivir, PERO también tiene metas muy claras, sabe lo que quiere conseguir de su vida personal & profesional y trabaja MUY duro para lograr sus objetivos, también es muy dulce, encantadora y AMO que sepa lo que quiere en la vida, sin importar lo que otros le digan.

Cash es un millonario que hizo todo para cumplir sus sueños, al igual que Dusty tiene una vida familiar compleja, especialmente cuando se trata de su padre y aún así me gustó mucho leerlo reflexionando y hablando sobre él con Dusty. También me gustó leer su lado de jefe gruñón e intimidante, su personalidad coqueta, seductora y lo amable que puede llegar a ser con las personas a su alrededor.

Dusty & Cash tienen uno de los mejores comienzos que he leído: cuando ambos están en Hawaii por trabajo, su atracción por el otro es inmediata y deciden pasar una noche juntos, sin nombres ni otro tipo de información, el problema para ambos empieza cuando ninguno puede dejar de pensar en el otro y me encantó que Cash hiciera hasta lo imposible por encontrar a su Tex, y cuando el reencuentro por fin se da, Dusty descubre que el hombre que le dio una noche inolvidable es su nuevo jefe en el empleo que siempre soñó. Y aunque parece que las cosas entre estos dos pasan muy rápido, creo que Julie es la mejor para escribir este tipo de historias porque Cash es el mejor cuando trata de hacer feliz a Dusty, apoyarla de manera incondicional y darle los mejores momentos cuando decide abrirle su corazón y confesarle TODO lo que siente y la manera en la que ella cambio su vida. Sin embargo, y aún cuando disfruté mucho leyendo a Dusty & Cash tengo que decir que no me gustó que Cash & Emma no entendieran, ni intentaran comprender, los miedos de Dusty y principalmente que ella le hiciera sentir que estaba exagerando o que sus sentimientos eran sin fundamento.

🩵Dusty: 4/5

🩵Historia de amor: 4/5
🩵Personajes secundarios: 5/5
