Hannah has a secret.  She knows James did not recognize her, but she wants to see where it leads before she tells him.  Hopefully the man of her dreams will make them come true.

James is frustrated.  Newly divorced from a diva with a capitol D, he wants to relax and find someone who cares about him for him.  Not his money.  He has secrets he is keeping too.

When it all hits the fan, these characters are stronger than they know.  If they can keep together and stay strong, it will be a brighter future for them both.  Can they make it past the secrets form their pasts?

I found the story to be charming.  Second chances in real life, are rare.  So that makes them all the more special.  I found Natalie's voice to be unexpected.  Very pleasant to listen to with the occasional surprises of accent with the words thrown in.  The story flew by and before I knew it was over.  I give this a 3/5 Kitty's Paws UP!

All is revealed. Or is it? Derrick conned his way into my heart in Bodyguard to the Billionaire, Billionaire's Secret picks up right where book 1 left off. Zia finds double trouble when she comes face to face with a shocking truth. How can she trust her head when it continues to be overshadowed by her heart? Seems tall, dark and tempting has more than a bit of explaining to do. For me, the beauty of The Billionaire Duet is figuring out where the truth lies and the lies begin. Malone proves that a slight of hand can make for compelling storytelling. Deception proves to be a sucker punch to the heart.

In a drunken haze during their thirtieth birthday celebration, the Secret Billionaire Society swore off their partying ways.  They wanted to give back to society, and Mission Impossible became their motto. They just needed someone who would give the assignments. Enter the mysterious Mr. Smith.

Serious Chase Young is chosen first by this ominous, never seen Smith and goes from billionaire to pilot for a small airline in a day. Unable to use money to fix the problem, he’s tasked to dig deeper into the airline’s problems. Chase never expects to meet Grace Edison, the owner’s daughter, and immediately wants her in his life. Undercover, Chase can’t tell Grace the truth. Never one to back down, he accepts the challenge ahead of him, win Grace and save her father’s company.

The Secret is a sweet tale of heated moments and undying love. Charlie and Ethan's romance is the type that sneaks up and steals away with the heart. With all the pain endured by each, I wanted them to find some happiness. Ms. Ridgway can get inside the head and capture hold of the heart easily and The Secret is evidence of that talent. Another winning story.
