About this listen
When a charming billionaire and a reclusive lawyer tie the knot to outsmart an inheritance scheme, sparks fly and unexpected love blossoms in this sizzling romance from Ava Rani, author of The Spare and The Heir.
Sometimes love outsmarts the best laid plans.
Penelope Chen-Astor ran away from the stifling expectations of her wealthy family in Singapore for an independent life as a high-powered Manhattan lawyer. But familial duty comes crashing back when her grandfather’s will demands she be married for a year to claim her inheritance. She’d walk away from it all, but her mother’s assets are at stake too, and this is the only way Penelope can see to protect her.
Enter Xander Sutton, the billionaire co-founder of investment group Dawn Capital. With his effortless charm and easy smiles, he’s used to winning hearts, but Penelope’s always proven immune to him. When she’s backed into a corner and asks Xander to masquerade as her husband for a year, he sees a golden opportunity to finally win over the only person who’s kept him at arm’s length—but the closer they get, the harder it becomes to play pretend.
What begins as a strictly business arrangement quickly spirals into steamy encounters and genuine emotions. When meddling relatives, corporate espionage, and high-stakes legal battles come into play, Xander and Penelope will have to decide if the inheritance is all they stand to lose when the year is done...
From the bustling streets of Manhattan to the serene beaches of the Hamptons and the skyscrapers of Singapore, The Charmer is the third and final novel in the Biotech Billionaires universe.

Story
Everyone knows who Caleb Kelley is. I'm at the top of my game, known all around Colorado and beyond for not only my elite skills in professional hockey but also my family's ranching heritage. For this reason, I trust very few people as I'm used to strangers and so-called friends trying to get close to us for a piece of fame. But when I receive a letter from a woman I slept with years ago, letting me know I'm a father, I implicitly trust her. Emily Russo is forever ingrained in my memory and is the exception to every rule.

My brother's best friend will do anything to win. Even if it means pretending to date me–his sworn enemy. But claiming my V-card wasn't part of the plan. He's Goalie-zilla of the Houston Heatwave and the man I can't stand. Number 33. Ryker-freakin-Balinger.

Story
Today was an epic disaster. I was supposed to be walking down the aisle in front of all my friends and family, getting married to a man I thought I was supposed to be spending the rest of my life with, not drowning my sorrows in a vodka soda. But after finding my fiancé intimately getting to know his best man, I was out of options… and a groom. So I hiked up my wedding dress and walked to the nearest bar. In my defense, I wasn't looking for a one night stand, but then he came in with his irresistible dimples, his gigantic muscles, and a smirk that knocked the tiara straight off my head.

There was a slight chance he’d still want me, only he had to accept our baby, too.

Love may be the best medicine, but first-year resident Grace Rose isn’t prescribing it anytime soon. Not since her ex broke her heart in med school, and especially not since hearing the rumor that she slept her way into the OB-GYN program. (Spoiler alert: So not true.) With her social anxiety already in full spiral, Grace is determined to set the record straight. But after a tense first encounter with fellow resident Julian Santini—with his annoying good looks and witty charm—she realizes that her reputation may never fully recover.

Xander Sutton is the happy-go-lucky charismatic guy who seems to always have it together on the outside but feels misplaced and broken on the inside. Penelope has always intrigued him, so when the opportunity to pretend to be her fiancé arises, he plays into it. And when it turns out that actually marrying each other will save Pen from her betrothal, he says yes.
Entering a marriage of convenience was never part of his plan, but if it's the only way to keep her, he'll take it.
After they marry, they encounter a number of hurdles together, but it only brings them closer, and the attraction they feel for each other only grows until they can't fight it anymore and give in. They choose each other through all the turmoil and Ioved seeing both of them drop their defenses and give into their hearts.
Vikas and Rebecca were wonderful on this title, embodying these characters and bringing all their complexities to life. What a fun, rewarding way to finish this series!
Great conclusion to the trilogy
