What would YOU do if waking up was easy? The Up Light turns your bedside lamp into a wake up light that gently prepares your body so you don't have that morning grogginess. Instead, wake up feeling refreshed, more alert, and ready to begin your day. It also removes the blue light in the evenings so it's more conducive to sleep!
Designed For YOU. It's Simple. No hubs, no wifi connections, no additional clutter on your nightstand, and best of all, no more annoying alarms!
If you know how to replace a standard light bulb and download an app, the Up Light is for you. It's Smart. By pairing light with sound, The Up Light works with your body to help reset your circadian rhythm and promote sleep wellness. Sleep specialists have been using light therapy for years to help treat sleep phase disorders and we use it ourselves. You're right. When you think about something waking you up, you think about someone stirring you or alerting you awake. The UpLight is completely different.
One of the reasons it's hard for a lot of people to wake up in the morning is because the sleep hormone that makes you tired (melatonin) is being produced too late - so by the time you wake up, it hasn't had a chance to wear off and you wake up groggy. So instead of trying to wake you up in the morning and fighting with your body, The UpLight tells your body when to start producing your sleep hormones at night so that it wears off in time and you wake up naturally, feeling ready. The light itself doesn't wake you up, rather it helps your body know when to sleep and wake up naturally on its own. The Philips Wake-Up Light is a fantastic alarm, however, our customers prefer The Up Light for several reasons:. The Up Light not only reduces clutter by using your lamp, it's a lot more flexible since it's app-controlled. The Up Light can play any song or ringtone on your smartphone vs the Philips HF3520 Wake-Up Light with only 5 preset sounds.
The HF3520's sunrise is only adjustable from 20-40 mins. The Up Light can be adjusted from as short as 1 min to as long as 2-3 hours or more. This is important because as your body gets trained to wake up to the light, you may only need a 5-10 minute sunrise - the Philips wake up lights would be waking you up too early. The Up Light's brightness can be adjusted from 0-100% compared to only 20 brightness settings. With 16 million colors, The Up Light provides the perfect mood lighting when you feel like having some fun!.
The Up Light can also be used as your primary lamp, giving you bright white light in the mornings, warm light during the day to bring out the colors in your room, and melatonin facilitating light in the evenings - controlled from anywhere in your home by your smart phone. When updating the OS on your phone, sometimes Bluetooth connections are disrupted. The fix is easy, delete your app, turn off Bluetooth, completely power off your phone, wait 60 seconds, and then power it back on. Make sure your Up Light is turned on and Bluetooth is enabled and then reinstall and open the app, you should be able to connect again. You can download the app. As always, if you need additional assistance, send a message by tapping 'Contact Support' on your app and we'll be happy to help!

When my manager assigns me the task of finding a new wake up call service for our CEO, I think, how hard can this be? Answer: practically impossible. It turns out that no wake-up call company in the world will take him on as a client. They’ve all had enough of his surly personality. So in an effort not to lose my job, I secretly start making the calls myself, every day at 4: When my manager assigns me the task of finding a new wake up call service for our CEO, I think, how hard can this be?
Answer: practically impossible. It turns out that no wake-up call company in the world will take him on as a client. They’ve all had enough of his surly personality. So in an effort not to lose my job, I secretly start making the calls myself, every day at 4:30 am sharp. OMG yes you read that right—four freaking thirty in the morning.
Confession: I’m not the nicest wake-up-call girl at that hour. Who wakes up before the roosters are even crowing? Luckily he doesn’t seem to mind my get-your-ass-out-of-bed attitude. Day by day we’re becoming closer, and the calls start turning hot, like pay-by-the-minute hot and oh-so-wild. Snuggled under the covers with the moonlight streaming in the windows, we divulge our secrets to each other, but the one thing that he can never find out is that the sexy vixen who wakes him up every morning is just the lowly assistant who wears frumpy dresses.
Katie From The Wake Up Call
I can only imagine his disappointment. Now he wants to take me out on a date and he’s scouring Manhattan to find me.
He’s an overachieving billionaire bent on a mission. How much longer can I keep up this charade? The Billionaire’s Wake Up Call Girl is my very first book by Annika Martin and let me just say that I am in love. This book got me from the very first page. I loved the Hero and heroine both equally. And even though this was a romantic comedy, it had me all twisted up. Yes I know in my heart these are going to end in a HEA.
But I was so worried about these two and how this was all going to be worked out. I didn’t want to stop reading! Elizabeth (Lizzie) Cooper had everything going for her. She ha The Billionaire’s Wake Up Call Girl is my very first book by Annika Martin and let me just say that I am in love. This book got me from the very first page.

And even though this was a romantic comedy, it had me all twisted up. Yes I know in my heart these are going to end in a HEA. But I was so worried about these two and how this was all going to be worked out. I didn’t want to stop reading!
Elizabeth (Lizzie) Cooper had everything going for her. She had started a small bakery which was flourishing. And she had fallen in love. Only the man she gave her heart to took a lot more than just her heart. He took her for everything. Now the bakery is closed, she is in debt up to her eyeballs, and a lone shark is showing up at her door with a gun. So, she took a short term job working on the online presence for a pharmaceutical company.
If she can keep the job for just one month, she will get a large bonus that will satisfy the lone shark. Just one month!
She can do that right? Theo Drummond is CEO of Vossameer. Theo is known for a product he invented but is also known for his surly attitude. He runs his company in a no frills fashion. He wants everyone to concentrate on their duties, not on what he deems frivolous things. The first time Lizzie actually meets Theo, there is something there, eyes meet and hold, electricity sparks. Lizzie isn’t the only one that notices though.
Her supervisor, Sasha, picks up on it and doesn’t like it. Lizzie is off men, she needs to keep this job, so she decides to do whatever it takes to make her boss NOT notice her.
Wear frumpy clothes, no eye contact, whatever she has to do to keep this job so she can get her bonus. “His hotness has its own force. It has its own gravity.
![]()
It has its own zip code, miles past the neighborhood of stop staring and deep in the religious experience of beauty zone.” For some reason Theo doesn’t use normal alarm clocks to wake him up at 4:30 in the morning. He uses a wake up service. Only no one will have him. He’s run them all off. It seems he’s not the most friendly in the morning. Lizzie is tasked with finding him a new service but when no one will take the job, she decides to do it herself. How hard could it be?
Only things don’t exactly start out on the right foot. But that something is still there, even though Theo doesn’t know who she is, that zing is there over the phone. Their morning conversations become personal, secrets are whispered and soon their talk turns hot, sizzling hot.
Theo wants to know who she is, he wants to know her. But Lizzie isn’t sharing. I need more of her. I need to know her. I have to find her. And the answer is out there. I’ll crack this puzzle like I crack every other puzzle.
I’ll find her name. I’ll find her address.
I’ll find her.” Oh my gosh, that right there should have you one clicking like crazy. The secondary characters were amazing as well. Both Lizzie’s roommate, Mia, and Theo’s sister, Willow, were so much fun.
This book was perfection. It was fun, sweet, sexy as heck, and like I said before, it had me all tied up as Theo tried everything to figure out the identity of his wake up call girl and Lizzie prepared for the day when the lone shark was going to come knocking and she wouldn’t have the money. I love it when I try a book by a new to me author and fall in love like this. I’m already looking through her other books to see which one I want to try next.

And its elusive Oz like owner. “Everyone here is obsessed with Mr. They seem to regard him the way the ancient regarded gods that controlled the weather and plagues.” Theo Drummond is preoccupied with cracking the chemical solution to another life-saving medical invention.
That is till he’s preoccupied with his new wake-up caller. “‘Wake up, motherfucker’” Lizzie has spirit, and she’s determined to be self sufficient. After being screwed over in her last relationship, she’s weary of making the same mistake.
That doesn’t stop her though from taking some wild risks that fuel the comedic element in this romcom. “I had phone sex with my boss at 4:30 in the morning and now I’m in a prairie dress impersonating a wake-up-call service.” Theo rocks the aloof and surly CEO image in the opening chapters from Lizzie’s POV, but once the story reaches his perspective it’s clear he has integrity and determination.
Their opposites attract romance has just the right amount of heart and depth. “In chemistry, just the smallest adjustment—the addition of one atom—can be the difference between inertness and an explosion. We have that something. We really are combustible.” Oh and there’s their sexual chemistry too! “It’s just by the sheer backward recitations of the periodic table that I’m not losing it like a schoolboy at first fuck. But I’m not making it longer just for myself. I love concentrating on her pleasure.
I could do it forever.” Told via Lizzie and Theo’s first person POVs, the narrative is witty and entertaining, and the premise as it played out gave me quite a few out-loud chuckles. Lizzie’s descriptions of the company and employees in the opening chapters were colorful and engaging. I did, however, pause at several points and consider contracting the Dragusha brothers to handle Sasha.;-) But for the most part the story only left me craving one thing. I’ll be in the kitchen baking before I start my next book. Safety Recap: No cheating. No sex scenes w/OP. H is not a manwhore; h is not a virgin.

You want a grumpy hero with a wicked mouth on him, and a fantastic heroine you’ll love and admire? You can have that with this book. It’s hot, funny, and hard to put down! This is my second read from Ms. Martin, and I have to say she’s becoming my favorite. I love the humor, the tone, the pace, and the characters!
There’s a hint of angst that tugs at your heartstrings, 4 stars! The Billionaire’s Wake-up-call Girl is taking dirty talk to a whole new level. You want a grumpy hero with a wicked mouth on him, and a fantastic heroine you’ll love and admire? You can have that with this book. It’s hot, funny, and hard to put down! This is my second read from Ms. Martin, and I have to say she’s becoming my favorite.
I love the humor, the tone, the pace, and the characters! There’s a hint of angst that tugs at your heartstrings, just enough to make things juicier. We have Lizzie Cooper, a 27-year-old woman working hard into cleaning up the mess her controlling and swindling ex left her to handle. She also wants to get back on her feet soon and reopen her old bakery. With the promise of a generous sign-in bonus if you last thirty days at the job, she gets into the gig of working on the social media presence of an otherwise old-school pharmaceuticals company. She needs that sign-in bonus, and she’ll do everything to stay on the job, even wake up at 4:30 AM to wake up the CEO.
Theo Drummond has no time for frivolities. He just needs to work on his project, therefore helping others, and that’s how he wants the company to work. With the new girl distracting him, he’s not the best person to wake up in the morning, and now, all of the wake-up-call agencies have given up on him. But this new wake-up-call girl his employee got for him on Craigslist, the sassy mouth with the husky voice, is certainly doing things to him. He needs to meet her, but seems like sassy mouth doesn’t. They both have plans, and this, whatever this is, isn’t a part of it.
Lizzie plans to move back to her parents’ to regroup and save up before starting up her bakery, and Theo needs to figure out the problem he’s been trying hard to solve. So, how will their burgeoning feelings for each other fall into the equation? The chemistry is on point, constantly building up as Lizzie and Theo started their interactions to when Theo started insisting on meeting her, to finally coming face-to-face. Lizzie is an admirable character with a lot of sass and fire. Theo is mysterious, a little surly and a bit of an a-hole at first, but he’s a teddy bear. Plus, that mouth on him! I had a lot of fun reading The Billionaire’s Wake-up-call Girl.

There is tension underlying with this story as Lizzie previously had her own popular bakery, She lost it and found out that she was in a heap of debt that her awful ex Mason had taken in her name and using the bakery as collateral, he hadn't stopped there, loan sharks are turning up on her doorstep demanding money and pulling guns on her with a The Billionaire's Wake-Up-Call Girl was such a fun romance.

There is tension underlying with this story as Lizzie previously had her own popular bakery, She lost it and found out that she was in a heap of debt that her awful ex Mason had taken in her name and using the bakery as collateral, he hadn't stopped there, loan sharks are turning up on her doorstep demanding money and pulling guns on her with a loan agreement with Masons signature and her own poorly forged one. In order to pay the load shark off and start her life over she takes a job working in the Social Media department at Vossameer.
( A company owned by the brilliant, rich and reportedly coldly controlling Theo Drummond) A company that had produced ground breaking wound treatment and Theo felt had an even more pioneering invention within it's sights. Unfortunately for Lizzie she is working under a hideously bullying area manager who claims all triumphs as her own and belittles Lizzie and makes it seem that every stumbling block or hold up is due to Lizzie being inept and none too bright.

Lizzie has to hold down this job for a few more days when she is instructed to find a wake up service for Theo. A task which is an apparent impossibility as no telephone service is willing to deal with Theo. Knowing that faliure to complete this task would cost her the job (and money needed to clear the loan shark) Lizzie takes the decision to make the wake up calls herself. Her wake up methods vary between hilariously abusive and steamy and Theo becomes determined to find out who 'number 7' (the only details she has fed to him) is. The story has a little something for everyone who likes a little steam and laughter to their romance.
Yes it's another billionaire story but he's also sexy scientist which is a fun twist on a well known trope. I highly recommend this enjoyable, funny story.
Thanks to Annika Martin and Social Butterfly PR for granting me an ARC copy of The Billionaire's Wake-Up-Call Girl. This is my honest review.

We adored this book! ‘In chemistry, just the smallest adjustment—the addition of one atom—can be the difference between inertness and an explosion. We have that something. We really are combustible.’ Lizzie Cooper is 27, had a very successful bakery, until her ex-boyfriend Mason hot-footed it leaving in Lizzie in a pile of debt, owing money to some very seedy and dangerous loan sharks. Lizzie has a short time to pay up, and in desperation, takes a job as an assistant to the bitchy Social Media Manager at Vossameer, a very successful company run by the tyrannical Theo Drummond.
Not only does Lizzie has to contend with her Manager Sasha’s constantly stealing her ideas, and her sniping, but she has to work in the regimented Vossameer where fun is a swear word and her creativity is stifled by Theo’s unwillingness to have a human side projected in the company’s social media. But, it’s worth putting up with the bland tight ship environment because Lizzie is six days off earning a big signing bonus that will go a long way to paying off some of her inherited debts. Theo Drummond is the swoony, sexy, intelligent and successful chemist and CEO responsible for inventing a lifesaving product that stems the blood flow.
He’s an uptight control freak, a workaholic, on the cusp of discovering another lifesaving invention and he doesn’t need any distraction. Theo can always find a solution to everything.
Nothing is unsolvable. Except for the exquisite Lizzie who turns out to also be the sassy wakeup call girl hired to wake him up at 4.30am every morning with hilarious outcomes. Theo is used to people hanging on his every word, being agreeable and quaking in his presence. But not Lizzie.
She sasses him, talks back to him when no one else would dare. Lizzie confounds him. What is it about this woman that makes the impenetrable prickly Theo crumble? ‘With or without glasses, he’s the most dramatically, effusively, wildly handsome man I’ve ever seen. His hotness has its own force. It has its own gravity.’ This book was so much fun!
Theo was divine! Seriouslythis gorgeous geek who seemed so prim and proper had the naughtiest mouth you could imagine. Theo was ridiculously hot! The banter was spot on, the snark hilarious, and Lizzie’s friend Mia added, even more, laugh out loud moments. ‘This nameless, faceless woman who was so easy to talk to on the phone is ten times the miracle in person.’ From molecules, beakers, and formula to dirty talk, spanking and hot sex, Theo Drummond certainly had our hearts racing, and despite his awkwardness, he certainly brought the swoon! ‘He’s such an arrogant asshole, and I so want him.’ Annika Martin delighted us at every turn with this story.
Please don’t be put off by the title because this isn’t a sex fest. It’s a sweet, charming, funny, snarky and yes, very sexy rom-com that’ll leave you smiling! This ticked a lot of boxes and suited our mood perfectly! ‘It’s insane the thoughts I have about her. I’m a chemist, not a caveman.’ Available to purchase below Come visit and follow us at: ✲ ✲ ✲ TBB on Instagram ✲ ✲.

“Your hapless minions await whatever stupid bullshit flows from your meteoric mind.” And after a few more unconventional phone calls, they turn sexual. I was like rahhh my guy went from “scientific data analysis” to “I’m gonna rip your clothes off once I find you”. ?? I’ve been waiting for something light, carefree and banterous like this.

I just finished a YA Celtic mythology time travel story that I KNEW would end in a cliffhanger before starting even it and I still had no intention of getting the rest of the series because money. I believe that should provide enough evidence entirely on its own but there are plenty of other examples. TLDR: Just look at some of my shelves people Back to this one.
I'm just gonna be honest, I was in it solely for the dirty talk and the book quotes promising 4:30 AM phone sex but I was pleasantly surprised to discover that I enjoyed the characters and the story line. There were some tropey issues (I mean the title tells you we're dealing with one of the he's gorgeous and loaded but soooo misunderstood.sad face. type stories), but it really worked for me. So here's the story line lowdown if you're trying to decide if this one is worth your dollars: Lizzie is in major financial trouble after her piece of shit ex racked up serious debt and embezzled from her bakery so she takes a job that she only has to survive for 30 days in order to get the amazing signing bonus that's gonna help her keep her kneecaps.
I really shouldn't have started reading this book at 1 am this morning and then once I knew it had its hooks in me, I shouldn't have been surprised I laughed out loud and had to cool down because it was so freakin' hot! The heroine Lizzie is sassy and a hoot!
And the hero Theo, is not just brilliant, he's totally an unexpected hottie! And the two of them together? Yeah, they burn up the pages!

I loved how much Theo wanted Lizzie, before he knew what she looked like and he had to go on was her voice. Lizzie and Theo might be opposites personality wise, but the two really brought out the best in each other, and by best I mean snark and aspects of their personalities they kept hidden. I also feel the need to mention my loathing of Sasha and Lizzie's ex. Both of them were abhorrent and why, you'll have to find out for yourselves. Annika Martin has another winner on her hands! I hope you enjoy reading The Billionaire's Wake-up-call Girl as much as I did!
And in case you're wondering, I finished reading at 3:30 AM and promptly passed out! This is my first book by Annika Martin and what a delight! Funny, entertaining and an enjoyable read.
Elizabeth Cooper desperately needs to keep her new job. She was royally screwed over by her ex and needs to pay off debts he created. She takes on a job as a social media assistant for a big company that creates lifesaving medicine.

She takes on a job as a social media assistant for a big company that creates lifesaving medicine. The company is run by the enigmatic and recluse, Theo Drummond. Theo was exact, stubborn and at times an asshole.
When he requests that a wake-up services be found to wake him up at 04:30 every morning, the task falls to Elizabeth. And a different version of herself comes through the line when she phones her boss. And somehow they create a connection that neither one can explain or want to give up. Elizabeth was a great female MC. I usually don't like female MCs but Annika Martin created one that was smart, funny and just the right amount of sassy. I loved her outlook on life, and her viewpoints on the best way to get employees to work optimally.
She was the perfect counter to Theo's growly, stubborn ways. Theo, being a chemist, was very particular and believed in certain things.
I loved how Elizabeth helped him to see the world different and become a better version of himself. This was an enjoyable read and I look forward to reading more from this author. After reading and adoring Annika Martin’s Most Eligible Bastard (recently renamed Most Eligible Billionaire), I was excited for more of the author’s work.
In fact, I specifically found myself craving another romantic comedy that would leave me cackling like a mad woman as I worked my way through the story. Thus, I jumped at the chance to read The Billionaire’s Wake-Up-Call Girl. It sounded like another fabulous romantic comedy, another book to leave me chuckling away, and I was not disappointed.

Thus, I jumped at the chance to read The Billionaire’s Wake-Up-Call Girl. It sounded like another fabulous romantic comedy, another book to leave me chuckling away, and I was not disappointed. In truth, I think my neighbours may have been rather annoyed with me – I decided to start reading this one at one in the morning, and refused to put it down until I was finished. Needless to say, there was a lot of late night laughter echoing through the walls.
From the very first page, I was sucked deep into The Billionaire’s Wake-Up-Call Girl, with the story refusing to let go. I feel in love with the characters. I feel in love with the storyline. I feel in love with the dialogue. There really was so much about this one that sucked me in deep, ensuring I was turning the pages at a rapid pace so that I could see what came next. Without a doubt, though, my favourite aspect was the dialogue between the two characters.
I could sit and share a list of wonderful one-liners with you, but to do so would be to ruin the surprise. Just know there are so many great lines. Not only of the hilarious variety (of which there are plenty), but also non-hilarious lines that are wonderful in their own right.
Moreover, for those of you who enjoyed Most Eligible Bastard/Billionaire as much as I did, there is crossover in this book. Not enough to give us more laugh out loud moments from our favourite duo and their dog, but enough to give you some warm fuzzy feelings. I cannot help but cross my fingers in the hope we get more billionaire romcoms from Annika Martin in the future, as I would love to see even more of this universe. For me, the only thing I wasn’t quite happy with was the speed of the ending. Things seemed to come together much too fast, and I feel as though the resolution was too quick considering all the build-up throughout the rest of the book.
I just would have liked there to be a bit more to the ending than there was – it was fun, I cannot deny that, but it was quick. Overall, The Billionaire’s Wake-Up-Call Girl was another amazing romantic comedy from Annika Martin, and I cannot wait to read even more of her work. I received this book for free from Publisher in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.
When Lizzie is asked to find a wake-up call girl for her exacting, control freak boss, who also happens to be devilishly sexy, she thinks how hard can it be? As it turns out, it is a lot harder than she thought. So she ends up doing it herself. Lizzie isn't quite the conventional wake-up-call girl and she isn't exactly nice either. But, he seems I received this book for free from Publisher in exchange for an honest review.

But, he seems to like it. And it turns out she kind of like his bossiness over the phone and the wake-up calls get hotter and more intimate than either of them ever expected. It's already hot here in the UK at the moment, now I have Annika Martin making me reach for a fan as well. Because not only is this book a fantastic romantic comedy, it is a beautifully filthy romantic comedy. I didn't know whether to be happy or horny.
I ended up a little of both. Martin spins us a hilarious enemies to lovers to tale with her signature quirky style, I couldn't stop reading! When I was devouring this, I looked up and realised a few hours had passed and I was now 70% through with the book. Which was very upsetting as I didn't want it to end. What makes this book so sexy as well as so funny was the chemistry between Theo and Lizzie. Sparks fly from their first meeting and their mixture of adversarial and sexy is a compelling read. They can switch from witty banter to some delicious dirty talk effortlessly, leaving you as breathless as the heroine.
However, although this definitely draws on the erotic line of contemporary romance, Lizzie and Theo have more than just their sexual chemistry. Their connection steadily grows deeper through the book as they reveal insecurities and secrets to one another. If you're looking for a romantic comedy that has some fantastic writing and hero who knows how to talk dirty then you need to give The Billionaire's Wake-up-call Girl a try. It's a great read and I can't wait to see what Annika Martin will be bring out next.ARC provided by author Reviewed by Suzanne❤ ♡ Don't want to miss any of our posts?

But Holy Freaking Smoke this book was seriously off the charts HOT Lizzie has been having a tough time of late. A boyfriend who cheated her out of her dream and stealing everything she has and then putting her into more debt and on top of it a couple of loan sharks showed up demanding payments from her. Hence she is working at Vossamer helping them change their image. And all she needs to do is hold on for the probation period to get the bonus.
But then her boss asks her to find a Wake up service for the CEO. But as he is a demanding bossy male and has gone through most of the Wake up services, she decides to do it herself. And man was she in for a surprise. Theo Drummon is a sexy alpha reclusive genius chemist. And he was a demanding boss which he doesn't seem to think is a problem as he demands perfection from himself so the same goes for his staff.
Until a cheeky Wake Up Call Girl calls him on his bossiness and talks back to him and doesn't take any b/s from him. And he kind of like it. But then she refuses to tell him who she is or go on a date with him. But Theo Drummon always gets what he wants and he wants his Wake up Call Girl, desperately. I loved this book, it was hilarious at times, and the back and forth banter between Lizzie and Theo was freaking HOT! Who knew that he was a total alpha dirty talking male. I loved the chemistry these two had from the beginning and the more you read the more it just dragged you into their story.
Definitely an 5 star read for me. Reviewed on behalf of.

Our heroine, Lizzie is working briefly for a company to work on their social media side of things. She is working to earn the large bonus that comes with lasting 30 days at the job.
She thinks it won't be hard to do. I mean, come on.
Who can't last 30 days at a job? Especially because she has serious need for that bonus. However, working for Vossamer isn't as easy as she thought. There are so many rules and a Marketing Manager that is a little bit of witch. Not to mention a CEO/Chemist who won't even let them cook microwave popcorn!
A CEO that needs a wake-up call just to wake up in the morning. When Lizzie has to do these wake-up call's hilarity and sexy times ensue. I won't give away all the details of Lizzie's back story.
You'll have to read the book to find out why she is so desperate for that bonus. Our hero, Theo ( GREAT NAME), is quite straight laced and very focused, however, Lizzie sneaks past his guard and he becomes fascinated with her. Well, with Operator Seven.;) ♥ Though there was somethingactivated about her beauty—it was an angry, burning beauty, jaw set impudently. Hair the color of honey. A dark freckle on her right cheekbone. The freckle ruined the perfect symmetry of her face—normally I wouldn’t like that.
But the freckle made her more perfect, somehow. And, god, the way her green eyes blazed. ♥ An example of the sexy times: “I don’t know why other guys would want to know that. But personally, I like my woman to have a little bit of clothes on her, so that I have something to rip off of her. That’s why I asked. Because I need to know what exactly I’m visualizing myself ripping off you.” I really loved this story. I only had a little problem with Lizzie's reticence in the end with Theo but I understood it.
These two are a delight and you just have to read this book! ♥ “You make me believe in impossible things,” he says.
The Billionaire's Wake-up-call Girl is funny and heartwarming. It was so much fun to read and I couldn't put it down. Lizzie is one tough cookie. She's been knocked down a lot recently and is working her hardest to recoup her losses. Theo is a reclusive, intelligent, man. He's working hard on things that could save lives, and is singularly focused on making that happen. Lizzie forces her witty spark onto Theo, being a bit of a distraction, and it made me love her so much more.

It was also a bit emotional as we learn more about Lizzie and Theo's pasts. I read this story in one sitting, and would recommend to the reader looking for a light, funny tale. Don't be fooled by the cheesy title, this was actually a terrific contemporary.

Our hero is a billionaire chemist who doesn't care about the normal things in life like micro-waved popcorn. So when heroine's manager from hell assigns her to find a wake-up call for the hero and she doesn't find anyone she accidentally tells him off the first time and that leads down many torrid conversations. I loved how vulnerable the hero was around the heroine, wanting something deeper while she wanted to leave because she had a plan to rebuild her life and didn't want another man derailing her. I loved the supporting cast as well, heroine's roommate Mia and the hero's sister and suspect they will be getting books too.
I devoured this like a chocolate buttercream donut after a months-long keto diet. “I'm an arrogant control freak, baby. You're going to hate me even as you crave what I do to you.” Chemistry is Queen with me. It's that indefinable thing that takes an average romance and takes it to another level. Martin has impressed me with the chemistry she generated between Lizzie and Theo, and alot of it is their very banter-y dialogue.

Here's the sitch - asshole grumpy hero hiding soft gooey center, falls for his wakeup call girl heroine, who is doing it so as not to lose her job working for him, though he has no idea who is calling him. This leads to lots o' hot yet surprisingly emotional chats, that lead to some great self love scenes and eventually a big climax (heh) when the truth finally comes out. It's not perfect, there's some continuity issues, the story loses a wee bit of steam between that climax and the final obstacle, and it dances on that line of problematic and just testing limits.
I had a good time reading it, so I'd recommend for those who love that billionaire trope with alot of dirty talk, and a shedload of contentiously hot chemistry. Beginning was stupid but picked up pace when Lizzie started making wake up calls. Also Theo, who seemed dull at first, was beginning to make his way to my heart.
First of all, I like nerdy guys as in scientist types. Secondly, I absolutely hate guys who are into these Facebook or Instagram shits, uploading their photos every hour. Thirdly, I adore the no-nonsense-stuck-up guys. And, Theo is everything that.
And the cover model is sooo delicious. It was fun, it was hot, and it was Nice book. Beginning was stupid but picked up pace when Lizzie started making wake up calls.

And the cover model is sooo delicious. It was fun, it was hot, and it was a good light read. There was a seriously addictive quality in the writing. Their phone interaction was a hit for me. About Lizzie, well, she was their to create drama and punish Theo. Jokes apart, she was strong but kind of desperate. Though she really was in a desperate situation, so can’t really judge her.
But I was irritated with her near the end. It was little too stubborn of her. But then I like Theo, so maybe I’m partial. Also I thought the book dragged towards the end.
And I hated The bitch Sasha. I mean she is not even an Ow but she is the villain of the story. I so wanna slap her. And why didn’t Theo fire her right away after what she did???
Maybe I should rethink my Theo attraction. ? Super read ❤️. I can't believe I'm saying this but this might have packed more of a punch if it were slightly shorter. I loved the idea and had all these expectations about the unorthodox wake-up call but they didn't exactly come to fruition.
