There are two sides to every Gemini guy...and one of them is red-hot.
Olivia Carter has a handsome, millionaire boyfriend. She's madly in love with him. The hitch? He doesn't actually exist. She told the lie to saveForever, her wedding design shop. And it worked-almost too well. As the media attention increases, so do the demands for Olivia to produce her "boyfriend." With both her reputation and career in jeopardy, Olivia is desperate enough to do almost anything...
Which is exactly what millionaire Mason Parker wants. Thanks to Olivia and her father, Mason went through hell during his teen years, and now it's time for a little payback-starting with the announcement that he's her one and only. Now the sexy Olivia has no choice but to do what Mason wants. But none of his plans for vengeance included falling in love with the woman he planned to ruin...
1. Animal I have Become by Three Days Grace (Mason's song)
2. Battleships by Chris Daughtry (Olivia's song)
3. Stay by Hurts
4. Too Many Faces by Cherri Bomb (this is a nod to the fact that Mason is a Gemini and they're known for the two sides of their personalities)
5. Let It Hurt by Rascal Flatts
6. Six Degrees of Separation by The Script
7. Fall Into Me by Brantley Gilbert (played when Mason saw Olivia at the Good Morning America studio)
8. For the Nights I Can't Remember by Hedley (the perfect hero falls in love song)
Olivia Carter is trying to make her dream come true, and when her hop seems to hit the skids, she tells one tiny lie about her boyfriend to increase the media attention. He is loving, kind and perfect and he doesn’t exist. On the verge on losing her reputation, the man she’s always been in love with comes to pretend to be her boyfriend, in order to take his revenge on Olivia’s father.
Mason and his friends were accused falsely of something they didn’t do and spent good years in prison. Now, all of them made up their minds to take revenge.
Mason wants two things from Olivia and he’s determined to obtain both. She has already decided that she won’t give in and won’t let Mason close to her heart. But what neither expected is to have strong feelings for each other and those feelings to increase once they get to really know one another.
“I’m starting to care and nothing that I do seems to stop it. It’s like a runaway train that I can’t catch. I hate that I care.”
Mason doesn’t do relationships. He doesn’t need to complicate his life and he makes that clear with Olivia since the very beginning. On the other hand, Olivia knows she has to put aside her feelings for him and be strong in order to reach her goal. I really liked her and the way she’s determined to keep her independence during difficulties.
Their relationship is complicated, because they’ve always liked each other but never acted on it. For them, love is dangerous and they realize they might get burned, so both try to keep their emotions bottled inside.
I liked Sonya’s writing style, because I could see the struggle of Mason and Olivia’s at each step towards finding love when they didn’t know they needed it.
I’ll make sure to recommend it to my friends!
The Millionaire’s Forever is the story of a man who’s trying to right the wrongs did to him in the past and who will do anything to achieve his goals.
Mason has always been labeled as a trouble maker when he was a teenager and, in the end, his reputation, which wasn’t exactly as bad as people thought, ended up being his downfall.
Olivia has made a promise and she’s trying really hard to keep it. She is strong, independent and so not ready to have her teenage crush storm back into her life.
Their story is simple or, at least, it should be but the years they haven’t seen each other have changed both of them.
Mason is hell bent on getting revenge and she is in his way. He thinks he knows Olivia Carter but time will prove him wrong.
She might still be attracted to him, but Mason is not the boy she remembers and the man he has become she isn’t sure she likes at all.
Both of them are in for quite a few surprises along the way.
Everything is pretty straight forward from the beginning in this novel but Mason and Olivia’s journey from almost friends, to enemies then back to almost friends and lovers is pretty interesting.
The things they thought they knew aren’t exactly the truth and, as more and more secrets are revealed, both of them will have to reevaluate their plans and think about what they really want.
The writing style is good and, if you want to just relax and enjoy some quality time with a book, this is the perfect choice.
I’m sure I’ll be picking up the next books in this series.
