Givers, Upper Echelons #1 by Casey Cox



A smitten billionaire player and the feisty business owner that tries to have boundaries. Dunlop isn't looking for love but Robbie is, and when their attraction turns to liking and then to love how can they resist? Givers marks the beginning of a new series by Casey Cox.

From the blurb:

I'm so bad at love, I've resorted to outsourcing it.

ALGRL is a next-level, algorithmic-based online dating service with a 97% guaranteed success rate! With odds like that, even I can't mess it up. Right?

One thing I'm sure of—Dunlop Palmer is not the Mr. Forever I'm looking for.

He's a billionaire alpha playboy. Filthy rich, criminally attractive, and 100% not settle-down material.

He irritates me from the moment we meet. He gets under my skin once we start working together. And he totally catches me off guard when I start catching glimpses of the real him.

Turns out, my first impressions of him were way off-base. There's a lot more to Dunlop than meets the eye. And see? This is why I can't be trusted when it comes to men.

I should be focused on the perfect guy I've been matched with online—hello, 97% success rate—and not the walking, talking, sex god of a disaster that is Dunlop.

Am I about to make another huge mistake?...

GIVERS is an opposites-attract billionaire MM romance with You've Got Mail rom-com vibes. It features an alpha billionaire who's guarding his heart, online dating, a ginormous size difference, and a guaranteed happily ever after.



SNik's Review:

First in series (Upper Echelons). Coworkers. Dual POV. 

Billionaire businessman Dunlop plays hard and works hard, after all he has a family business to help run and a playboy reputation to maintain. Robbie is focused on building his business and making enough money to help his grandfather, and when he is interviewed for a contract with Dunlop’s company sparks fly between them. But Robbie is looking for a forever kind of love, and even as he gets to know Dunlop he can’t see how they would work long term, plus he has already been paired with his perfect match, or so the successful computer dating service tells him that. 

Robbie is a feisty confident man that is no pushover for the aggressive Dunlop, and they definitely have chemistry plus fun bantering. There is enough time for them to build a relationship, learn about each other, and discuss honest communication which is super appealing. 

Both Dunlop and Robbie are likable (yes Dunlop is likable as the redeemed player because he fully commits to Robbie), all their interactions were entertaining and this was a fun read with a swoony HEA.
