Lola & the Millionaires

Part One

De: Kathryn Moon

Narrado por: Melissa Schwairy, Jarman Day

Lola Barnes only wants one thing: to get her life under control. No more chasing alphas who abuse and toss away betas like her. No more hiding in her cousin’s apartment licking wounds that won’t heal. Armed with her dream job and her less than dreamy apartment, Lola is ready to start a new chapter of her life without alphas. But that’s easier said than done when one stumbling incident after another leads Lola closer to an alluring pack of captivating men.

These alphas are everything Lola dreamed of, but they already have an omega - a playful male model who won’t stop flirting with her. And Lola is only a beta, one who comes with deep scars and an unshakeable aversion to alphas and their powerful presences. If only she could resist their perfect beta, Leo, whose patience and determination to see her heal breaks down one wall after another.

When the alpha who all but destroyed Lola tries to start a game of cat and mouse that’s all claws, the safest place for Lola may be the one she’s most terrified of, in the arms of an alpha pack.

Spectacular

I love omega verse books so much and this one was a refreshing new take on a beta as the main female character instead of the omega!

I loved the dual POV and the narrators did an amazing job! The voices were perfect and I can’t wait to get to the next book!

Such a soft and sweet why choose!

Buddy read with the bestie, Debbie.

Adorable isn't exactly the word I would use when I am thinking of a reverse harem but that is exactly what comes to mind with Lola & the Millionaires. This story was so full of all the happy and beautiful feelings for Lola and what I am hoping is going to become her pack.

This book wasn't just sweet and happy feelings though, the flashbacks that Lola had about wrecked me. Every moment I was like "good for you babe" her intrusive thoughts on the past would come in and shatter any progress she had started to make with herself. Talk about heartbreaking.

We talk about strong women and why we love them but what about the women who had to go through the heartbreak and chaos before they could get to strong? That is Lola, I think she is going to come back swinging and I am entirely here for it.

Then the men, and yes, they were all entirely men. Not boys. Lola has had her fair share of boys and now she knows what it is like to have a man, or in this case several.

Matthieu kind of owns my heart right now but from what I am being told the tide might shift and by the end of book two I might be rooting for another one.

Rake and Leo were who Lola needed when she was at her most vulnerable and now that she is coming into herself, Matthieu is the one to help to do that. While I don't know too much about Wes, Cyrus, and Caleb yet I am hoping to get to know them better in book two.

Melissa Schwairy and Jarman Day did a wonderful job with narration but Melissa Schwairy kind of stole the show for me on this one. She was able to back those vulnerable moments up with a perfect crack to her voice and her happy moments were projected through her voice as well. I am glad I have a new female narrator to add to my repertoire.

Beyond ready for book two with Lola and her millionaires because I think there are still plenty of good times to be had while also taking down the man who is tormenting Lola from afar.

Love Lola so much!!

2022 Audiobook Review

I loved listening to this story, it brought back so many good memories and reminded me again why this author is in my top 10 of all-time. I loved Baby but 100% still agree with my review years ago of the ebook that Lola and her men take the cake. I love their dynamics, how they let Lola get back to herself, they are there for her, they let her grow and recover and show her not all men and alphas are bad. Its amazing to read and now listen. I think for me the only part of the audiobook that I didnt like were the accents both narrators tried to do for Matthieu. He is one of my favorites from the books and the narrators definitely don't do his French accent justice. I just tried to ignore that part. I also thought sometimes they were even off with Caleb's British accent. Besides those (reason I dropped it from a 5 to a 4 stars for the performance) it was done really well. I could imagine these characters in my minds eye and loved every second of it. So glad I grabbed the audiobooks during the big end of summer Audible sale ❤️


Original 2020 ebook review:

Holy moly, I thought Baby was my favorite....Lola takes the cake!

I am not sure how I am going to convey how amazing this 2 part story is. I honestly lost so much sleep, cheated and read some during my work day, and overall didn't want to do anything else but read about Lola and her amazing men and their story. I know I won't do this review justice and I don't want to ruin how magical it is so I will try to keep this brief.

Lola has so many layers, with what she has had to go through, her upbringing, the society they live in, she hasn't recovered mentally and emotionally from her torture that is alluded to in Baby's standalone. She gets a job at her dream company, with the help of her cousin, and she meets some of the guys who will change her life. Funnily enough she already met one of their pack earlier in the book (so much steam in the first like couple chapters, really drew me in!). I loved seeing how fragile Lola was, but how she got stronger with the help of others and really allowing herself to trust in people again. More about that in my review for book 2!

I will say that my ranking of guys tended to switch a lot, like in terms of who was my favorite. I love the small differences in each of the guys. I know I gravitated towards almost all of them throughout the whole series. I think in book 1, Rake, Matt, and Leo stole the show for me in terms of the guys. I mean I was super intrigued by Caleb and Wes and not so much Cyrus, but I think that was just because of his air time so to speak haha.

I loved the alone time she got with the guys but then the group interaction. The pack was adorable with how they are a family. I love the protectiveness and joking around, and how open they are with each other. I thought the storyline was on a great pace, nothing was too quick or drawn out. I mean I have absolutely nothing bad or any critiques to give. I loved every second of book 1 and couldn't wait to get into book 2.

Highly recommend, top 10 favorite RH stories of all time. I already have started a reread because it for some reason grounds me. I don't know how to describe it. Ok, now to write my review for book 2 which somehow is better than book 1! I don't know how Kathryn did it ❤️

Loved it!!

Hours upon hours of sexy goodness. . . . .
Jarman Day, and Melissa Schwairy did a wonderful job.

One of my favorite omegaverses!

I loved this audiobook version of Lola and the Millionaires! If you have already read the book, this is a great way to revisit a favorite story. If you haven’t yet met Lola and her men, it’s a great introduction to the broken beta who was put back together by a mixed pack of understanding men.
