Shy Girls Can't Date Billionaires
By: Milly Rose @shy.author.milly.rose
This fun YA novel with an enemies to lovers trope tells the story of a shy girl and her new male roommate who happens to be a billionaire. Christie is a shy introvert who enjoys art and spending quiet time at home with her family. When their house burns down, Christie's family is taken in by her father's boss, a billionaire who has a mansion not too far from where the lived. Suddenly Christie and her family must adjust to a new lifestyle, including new clothes, a new school and even a crew of wait staff, always present to meet their every need. The one problem is the billionaire's teenage son, Thomas, who is not all that enthusiastic about the new house guests, especially when it is decided that Christie will also attend his private school. Despite feeling rejected and unwelcome, Christie can't help but find herself feeling attracted to this pompous boy who lives across the hall.
I appreciated the character development and the slow introduction of information about their pasts. Additionally, while both main characters grow and change over the course of the story, Christie really blossoms and learns a lot about herself and who she wants to be as the novel progresses. The story did end pretty quickly, and left me wanting a bit more, but overall it was a great story. I also appreciated that it was generally quite tame in the romance area, as I would be comfortable recommending this book to young adults and teens.
