One in A Billion (Pierce Brothers Book 3) by Belinda Williams – Review by Michelle Austin

One In A Billion (Pierce Brothers, #3)One In A Billion by Belinda Williams
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was a great 5 star read.
Victoria is running out of time to complete her goal by her 30th birthday. She has her sights set on an interview that could change her career. When she went to do the interview, an unexpected opportunity presented itself to her and she took it.
Seth was intrigued by Victoria and was able to turn the tables on her. Little did they know just how much closer they would get. Will they both get what they want?
Overall, this was a great read, I really enjoyed both characters. Seth was great and not what you would expect and Victoria was perfect for him. I loved the bantering between them, I had some LOL moments. If you’re looking for a read that pulls you right in you will like this one. It can be read as a stand alone. The author does a great job with her writing and I look forward to reading more from her. 1- click and get started today.
