Wikipedia reports that in 2021 there was a record number of billionaires in the world: 2,755, to be exact. In 2023, it will exceed 3000. It is a very small number if you compare it with the total population in the world. So becoming a billionaire is a bridge too far for most. If you observe the billionaires/millionaires life, you get to see that most of them are very busy with their work and have little time for long-term relationships. They do one-night stands or hookups.
So you can not see any significant relationship here, but there is always an exception. If you read or see the Fifty Shades trilogy, you see how a billionaire romance can be emotional and sweet.
15 Billionaire Romance Books (Business/Enterprenure Romance)
Billionaire love story or romance is a popular trope in the romance genre. Most of the story buildup from the office or workplace, and the characters show a boss-worker relationship. It depends on the authors, and the main character can be anyone. Now I will review the best 15 billionaire romance books for you. Let’s go!
1. Misadventures of a Backup Bride (Misadventures)
It is part of the Misadventures series. You don’t have to read them in order. They are all technically standalone and all written by different authors. This one follows our billionaire, Carson, who has to make a business deal and marry the daughter of that business owner. But he wants to back out. So he claims that he’s in love with somebody else. Even though he is supposedly in love with somebody else, he can still get the company if he ends up marrying this woman he’s in love with.
So Carson has to come up with this plan of finding this woman he’s supposed to be in love with, and he meets our female character, Ella. Ella is an actress, and she decides to go along with it and pretend to be his fiance or pretend to be in love with him. They have this plan to have this wedding that will be fake, and she’ll leave him at the altar so that they don’t have to get married. It won’t be his fault, and he could still get the company he wants. It was fun, and I enjoyed the romance.

2. Manwhore
Our female character, Rachel, is a journalist who writes very iconic pieces. She writes about our male character (Saint), a billionaire entrepreneur Chicago has ever known. Saint is very mysterious private, and Rachel wants to expose him or get more out of him.

3. The Fortunate Ones
Brooke Davenport works at a country club, and she’s a waitress. James Ashwood is often at the country club, and he’s the successful billionaire tech guy. One day they’re both in the lounge together. He is super intrigued by her and asks her to take a seat. Then they start chit-chatting. Brooke’s super intimidated by him. There is an age gap, and he’s a little distant, cold, and mysterious.
It’s not super comedy or rom-com focused as other books are. It has a little bit more serious dark elements. If that makes sense, it still had a lot of great qualities that are scary has in Grey’s books, like there is still a little bit of a funny, sassy humor tone to it. Also, there is quite a bit of banter between the characters.

6. Eighty-One Nights (Beautiful Illusions Duet)
This is a duology. If you haven’t read any of Georgia Cates’s books, I highly recommend them. But this specific duology is very similar to her other books, which is intentional on Goodreads. Our female character (Caitriona Louden) falls, who is an escort. She ends up meeting our male character (Maxwell), who is a billionaire.
Maxwell offers a contract to be his girlfriend, but more like a companion a little bit. He wants all of the elements of a girlfriend without them getting attached. It was very well developed to feel all their emotions, and the plot was fascinating.
