Julian Meijer is a man who has everything—almost. A billionaire bachelor, and the youngest, hottest member of a long line of Dutch nobility, there’s just one thing that eludes him: the Meijer Ruby, a priceless family heirloom that’s been lost for generations. After a tip-off leads him to the vaults of an ancient bank, Julian thinks his quest for the ring is over, but a revelation stops him in his tracks: in order to inherit it, he must use it to propose to his future bride!

Shelby Bright has loved Julian since their schooldays together, but the two haven’t spoken in fifteen years. When a new job role lands her working at his company, she’s hoping only that he’ll remember who she is. Little does she know, he has much bigger plans in store for her!

It’s not long before Julian presents his offer: a sham marriage, in exchange for a cash sum large enough to change her life forever. Unable to resist the billionaire’s indecent proposal, Shelby finds herself falling head over heels for Julian all over again, even as it becomes clear that her old friend is not the sweet, kind boy she once fell for.

Can Shelby put her feelings aside for the sake of the deal? Will Julian ever realize that the true value of his quest, lies not in a priceless jewel, but in a very real, very fake fiancée?

This is the first book of Holly Rayner's Billionaires of Europe sweet romance series.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sweet romance between two old friends
Reviewed in the United States on April 26, 2022

The story started out with Julian needing a bride so he could retrieve a family heirloom. His old school friend Shelby starts working for the company and he convinces her to be his fake bride-he would get the heirloom and she would get the money to care for her ill mother. Along the way, Julian finally realizes he is in love with Shelby and that her love is more valuable to him than the ring. Very nice ending.

The hunt for a family heirloom ruby ring has begun and pitted Julien and his cousin Fleur against each other and time is of the essence...there is also the caveat that the ring can only be given to upon the proposal of marriage. Reenter to Julien's life a childhood friend/crush Shelby. Shelby is working hard to climb the corporate structure so she will be able to take care of her ailing mother...she always had feeling for Julien but as she hasn't seen him since childhood; now with the promise of security for her mother's future care she enters an arrangement of sorts. When friendship and agreements are met with attraction how will their future end up? This is a great story with a few twists and turns to keep you captivated! This is my honest review of a voluntarily read ARC

I just adored this book, so much so that I had trouble putting it down. It didn't take me more than a day to read it because I was so glued to it, so much in love with it. It's sweet and charming and adorable. I loved the two lead characters so much.

And ladies, if you're the emotional type, make sure to have some tissues available for use late in the book; you're going to need them from about page 90 on.

I have read other books with no sex in them such as J R Biery. She uses proper adjectives to describe feelings. In her books you don't need to know anything else. This story had so many descriptions in it that I skipped a lot but did finish it. It was bland.

A second chance at falling in love with her childhood first love, Julian, seems like a dream to Shelby. Julian persuades Shelby to go along with a fake engagement and wedding to get a priceless family ring into his possession. In this delightful love drama you'll discover the challenges the two face.

I loved this book. It was clean and refreshing. Very funny in places. I was kept wondering if Shelby would get her true love. Julian had his mind on rubies and money, not love. Julian, why could you not get your head on straight?

Just couldn't get along with this. I started skimming right after Shelby joined by story which in think was chapter two. Should have sensed it, that cover is awful.
