Head Stuck In A Book: Book Review: Terms And Conditions (Dreamland Billionaires #2) - Lauren Asher

 




Released: 17th March 2022


477 Pages.  RRP. $22.99

Declan
I'm destined to become the next CEO of my family's media empire.
The only problem? My grandfather's inheritance clause.
Fulfilling his dying wish of getting married and having an heir seemed impossible until my assistant volunteers for the job.
Our marriage was supposed to be the perfect solution to my biggest problem.
But the more we act in love for the public, the more unsure I feel about our contract.
Caring about Iris was never part of the deal.
Especially not when breaking her heart is inevitable.

Iris
My plan to marry Declan was simple in theory.
Move in together. Throw a wedding. Have a baby.
We set rules to prevent any kind of issues.
Ones that were never meant to be broken, no matter how much Declan tempts me.
But what happens when our fake relationship bleeds into our real one?
Falling in love was never an option.
At least not for me.

Review.
Terms And Conditions is the second book in the Dreamland Billionaires series; while I thoroughly enjoyed it, the first book, The Fine Print, is still my favourite because I liked Rowan and Zahra's characters more.
Having dual POVs in both books is something I love; I like knowing what the hero is thinking along with the heroine; it adds more to the story and gives more insight into what Declan was thinking and feeling.
The marriage of convenience trope is one I enjoy reading about in romance books, plus the whole billionaire, marrying your boss and grumpy hero situation.
The progression of Declan's character was a delight to read, as were the interactions with his brothers.
I'm hopeful that Declan, Cal and Rowan's Father, gets his comeuppance in the next and last book, he really gets on my nerves, and he's just extremely unlikeable.
I'm a sucker for any kind of epilogue in romance books, so I appreciate the extended epilogue we get in this series.
I can't wait for Cal's book; I'm intrigued by his story and character.
A great series that is very well written with fleshed-out characters that are a joy to read about (except the sorry excuse for a Father).
I need to check out Lauren Asher's other books if they're anywhere near as good as this series.

Thanks to Hachette Australia for the review copy; all thoughts are my own.
