Blurb:

I’m the type of girl who’s given up on fairy tales. So when Beck – the hot new busboy at work – starts flirting with me, I know better than to get my hopes up. Happily ever afters aren’t for the average. I learned that the hard way. 

But how can I be expected to resist a man who can quote Austen, loves making me laugh, and seems to be everything hot and good in this world?

Only there’s so much more to him than that. 
Billionaire playboy? Check. 
Troubled soul? Check. 
The owner of my heart, the man I’ve moved halfway across the country to be with, who’s laying the world at my feet in order to convince me to never leave? Check. Check. Check.

But nobody does complicated like the one percent. 

This is not your everyday rags-to-riches, knight-in-shining armor whisking the poor girl off her feet kind of story. No, this is much messier.

Review:

I really enjoyed this book. Kylie always has the most enjoyable characters. I found myself laughing out loud several times while reading.

"He looks like good times and heartbreak. I should definitely know better."

The Rich Boy is a really funny, romantic, and refreshing read. 

Our main heroine is Alice. Gosh, I love her. I will say one of the things I love most about Kylies writing is that her heroines are realistic. They are not all perfect, stick thin, fictional women. Kylie writes characters that you can actually relate to, and I love that so much. It gets tiring reading about the same flawless characters over and over again. 

"What I discovered is, that it's not until you get completely away from your family and all of your support systems and have to stand on your own two feet that you find out who you really are."

And even though Alice has her insecurities, like everyone does, I love how damn confident she is. I loved our leading lady. She's confident, she's real, and she's funny! And I know this is fiction, but you always want a main character that you can relate to, and Kylie has done a fantastic job of that with Alice. 

And Beck and her together had me laughing more than once. We really can't forget about Beck. Ugh, I need me a beck. 😂 He really is Prince Charming. Hot as hell, funny, sweet at times, but not too sweet. 😏 

I also got a little bit of an old timey vibe from this one, even though it is set in modern times. It's the nick names and some of the words that I got that feel from. It adds a little something different to the story, in a good way. Lends a little bit more to that Cinderella feel. 

And speaking of that, these two together makes me want to find my Cinderella story. 

The Rich Boy is a slow burn romance that will have you smiling through the pages. I loved these characters and this story. Beck's family is some major crazy that will for sure keep you on your toes. I loved *most* of his family and friends. 

"Even heroes fuck up sometimes. At the end of the day, they too are only human."

I enjoyed all of the crazy that comes with going from rags to riches. The characters, the humor, all of it. The Rich Boy is just such a great read. Kylie has done it again and written yet another amazing romance. 

I can't wait for you all to meet these characters and read this book. It is fantastic.
