It was the first book from this author that I read. And I give it a 3.5 ⭐️
It was ok with a good plot. The billionaire playboy with only ONs needs a fiancee for a business deal.
That fake fiancee it is the woman with whom he had a night at his brothers weeding.
The lines blurr between them, and when she needs to go back home because her fathers death, they end everything.
This is the moment when I wish he did some big gesture for her. But it took to lomg and for his brother to open his eyes for him to eventually go to Australia for her.

It was a nice cosy romantic read though and I enjoyed it.

I like watching the Below Deck series on TV. So I was intrigued by this book. It did not disappoint. It was kind of a Life Style of the Rich and Famous but with a romance side to it.

Below Deck Billionaire by Amy Andreas is a breezy, enjoyable summer read that doesn’t require you to know the first book in the series. The story is light and fast-paced, perfect for a quick escape while lounging by the pool or on the beach. While the characters could use a bit more depth, the easy writing style and entertaining plot make up for it. If you’re looking for a short, undemanding romance, this book will do the trick!

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for allowing me to read this arc in exchange for an honest review!

Theo & Tiffany's second chance romance was a first class read.

Think "Below Deck" vibes with simmering attraction.

This sequel is a standalone irrespective of the characters from the first book making a few appearances. Theo's playboy persona is explained thru a glimpse into his past as is Tiffany's hesitancy given her parental figures.

Thank you to Boldwood Books and NetGalley for the arc of this book.
This is book2 in the series and is the story of Theo and Tiffany
I read Ari's story in book 1 and couldn't wait to read Theo's story. He is a grumpy billionaire who is a womanizer until he makes a bet with his brother to stay off women for a few months, and to keep himself out of the tabloids. Easy? Not when Tiffany, his casual hook up at Ari's wedding is on board his ship as a croupier.
I have found that Amy's writing is huge fun, uplifting and full of brilliant banter that literally makes you laugh out loud.
Her characters are three dimensional and with back story, so it isn't all fluff, romance and steamy scenes. They have issues too like normal people. I love how Amy is able to write characters that you easily relate to and feel compassion for. But what I mostly enjoy is her amazing sense of humour. It is right up there with Jenny Colgan who is very funny.

I really enjoyed this!
Theo - a perpetual playboy with no intention of settling down - meets Tiffany through his sister in law. Months later their paths cross again when they are unexpectedly brought together on his super yacht, and circumstances lead them to pretend to be engaged. Their attraction and chemistry is undeniable and Theo certainly meets his match with Tiffany!
I liked this book a lot. It was easy to read, fun, had a great setting and plot. I do feel that the ending was slightly rushed and would have liked to enjoy more of their HEA.
Thanks to Netgalley and Boldwood books for providing an advance copy for review.

We meet Theo- who refuses to sleep with a woman more than once. His recent escapades involving paparazzi causes an important business deal to fall through, which leads to the premise of the story. His brother dares him to give up sex for 4 months. Enter Tiffany, one of Theo's one night stands, that he can't seem to get off his mind. She comes to work for him on his superyacht, where they are in forced proximity and at one point, a fake engagement is needed to try and salvage the business deal.

Below Deck Billionaire was hard for me to get into. I love a billionaire romance, don't get me wrong. This one just missed the mark for me. There wasn't really any plot or true growth to either main character. I will say that the spice is on point and probably my favorite part of this story. Without it, the storyline falls flat.

I really enjoyed this book. The story was very well done and the characters were people that felt so real. I would easily recommend this book to others.

Review: Below Deck Billionaire by Amy Andrews
Publisher: Boldwood Books
Publication Date: July 28, 2025
Thank you to NetGalley and Boldwood Books for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Amy Andrews is known for her sizzling chemistry, witty banter, and the kind of romance that reads like a sun-drenched vacation—and Below Deck Billionaire is no exception. Set against the lush backdrop of the Greek Isles aboard a luxury yacht, this story pairs a scandal-ridden billionaire with a no-nonsense woman from his past, stirring up plenty of sexual tension, emotional push-pull, and just the right dose of drama.

The premise is clear-cut and enticing: Theo Callisthenes, heir to a Greek shipping empire and tabloid regular thanks to his very public escapades, is handed an ultimatum by his brother—go four months without sex to repair the family’s image, or risk permanent damage to their business and legacy. Theo reluctantly agrees and retreats to his yacht, aiming to keep a low profile while sailing through paradise. Things stay relatively on course until Tiffany Wainright, a strong-willed, competent woman from his past (whom he failed to seduce the first time around), joins the crew. The chemistry between them? Immediate. Electric. Complicated.

The bulk of the novel leans into forced proximity and will-they-won’t-they tension. The dynamic between Theo and Tiffany is classic Andrews—sharp dialogue, teasing one-liners, and simmering heat that makes you want to turn the page just to see who breaks first. The plot thickens when Theo’s attempt to resurrect a jeopardized business deal requires a fake engagement. Naturally, Tiffany is the only one he trusts—and wants—enough to ask. What follows is a sexy, sunlit charade that starts to blur into something real.

Andrews handles the fake-relationship trope well, especially in how she builds trust and emotional stakes amid the heat. However, while the setup is fun and fast-paced, the story does tread some familiar ground. Readers looking for a wholly original take on the trope might find it a bit predictable at times. The pacing occasionally rushes through deeper emotional revelations, and some of Theo’s growth feels surface-level rather than transformative.

Still, this book knows what it is—a billionaire fantasy with playful high-stakes energy, some well-placed heart, and plenty of heat. It’s pure romantic escapism: private yachts, sun-soaked flirtation, and two people who can’t stay away from each other even when they know they should.

Final thoughts: If you’re in the mood for a sexy, luxurious escape with forced proximity, fake fiancé drama, and two characters who challenge each other in the best ways, Below Deck Billionaire will absolutely scratch that itch. While it may not reinvent the genre, it delivers everything it promises—and sometimes, that’s exactly what you want from a summer romance.

I’m enjoying this series and while it’s only the second one, it was the getaway I needed. Billionaire playboy is in trouble for a bad reputation and must restore his and the Callisthenes’ reputation or they stand to lose millions. Yet he didn’t’ count on seeing the one girl he couldn’t get out of his mind, Tiffany. A fun, quick read romance in the romantic Greek Isles.

Thank you NetGalley and Boldwood Books for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Below Deck Billionaire delivers exactly what it promises—an escapist, steamy romance set against a luxury yacht backdrop. Amy Andrews brings her signature flair for flirtatious banter and fast-paced storytelling, making this a light and breezy read.

The chemistry between the characters is there, and the setting adds a fun, glamorous edge. That said, the plot felt a bit formulaic at times, and some character motivations could have used more depth. While entertaining, it didn’t leave a lasting impression.

If you’re in the mood for a quick romantic getaway with billionaire fantasy vibes, this book does the job—but don’t expect it to break new ground.
