I want you, you have no idea just how much. And now I'm going to have you.
Jenna:
I have always been the good girl. The quiet girl. And I’m sick of it.
I want to play; I want to have some fun. And there is one man with whom I want to do that.
Caleb Anderson.
Caleb:
Jenna is too pure. She is too good. But one look at her at my bar and I have to make her mine.
I am all kinds of wrong for her. But that doesn’t stop me from wanting her. Or from falling for her.
The Billionaire's Demand is a stand-alone billionaire fake romance set in New York City with plenty of heat with a guaranteed HEA and no cliff-hangers!

As to the story itself, it is jam-packed with many contemporary romance tropes: forbidden relationship ( former stepbrother and stepsister), fake relationship, good girl/bad boy. There's probably more, but those are the ones that initially spring to mind. The heroine is a medical resident (or “residence” as the female narrator said once!). The author didn't really seem to have much of a clue about how medical school/residency actually works; I have some knowledge of this as my nephew is a radiologist, and I saw every step of his educational process. It really wouldn't take much to research this to get it right in a book; Not doing so makes the author appear quite lazy. I won't go into the details because probably a few care but me! The hero is a part owner of several bars in New York City, and he's the social media candy who helps bring people in.
This book is certainly steamy. As a part of their agreement to have a fake relationship to help him create a more wholesome image to assist his mother in gaining a judgeship, she convinces him to show her a good, sexy time. She's not remotely experienced, and she's always been attracted to him and would like to explore that with him. He's very uncomfortable with the idea at first because he still sees her as a distant relation to protect, even though he's attracted to her. He wants her help, and she’s insistent, so eventually, they initiate that aspect of their agreement. The intimate scenes start out rather benign, but soon, they incorporate elements some readers may not feel 100% comfortable with. <start spoiler> The entire scandal that nearly breaks them up at the end has to do with intimacy, and frankly, how that played out with how what happened was so universally reviled just seemed nonsensical. They are two consenting adults. Yes, how unfun to be caught and have it go viral on social media, but seriously, did everything need to fall apart and be seen as so repugnant by so many as it did? It just seemed way out of proportion to how it was taken so seriously. And, no, it is not unethical for a doctor to have consensual sex! Sheesh! <end spoiler>
The book has two narrators, one for the hero and one for the heroine. I didn't like the heroine narrator's voice at all. It sounds like she's been hanging out in a smoky bar far too often, something our naïve heroine would not do! The hero's voice was fine, but the audio quality changed dramatically between the hero and the heroine's parts. His sounded as if he was somehow in a room with odd acoustics. Now and then, too, you would hear in his sections odd sounds, like the rustling of the wind or occasional bangs; at one point, it was quite prolonged, and I thought maybe someone was messing around in my backyard. I also think that at certain points, he was fighting a cold, as he sounded a little congested. Both occasionally mispronounce words, and I think once the female narrator made a mistake where she backed up and repeated a phrase but didn't edit out the mistake. In other words, the audio felt a bit sloppy.
