One Night in Monaco: A Secret Billionaires Novel Kindle Edition

One night in Monaco, my best friend, Maxence, disappeared from the middle of the Monte Carlo casino like blowing away a breath of smoke.

I have no idea what Maxence was doing in Monaco that night. Yeah, he loves the Monte Carlo casino—the stage of British spy movies, billionaires, Russian mafia, and roulette.

But too many people in Monaco think he might be a danger to them.

He never should have been there.

But he was.

And so was Simone. She's trouble from our past at boarding school. Her husband is a good friend of some of the people who would be happier if Maxence wasn't around anymore.

They tell me Maxence was here in the casino, and then a few minutes later, he was gone.

Like he dropped off the face of the Earth.

Or like he was dropped off one of Monaco’s cliffs and into the blue Mediterranean Sea, which was just a few feet from where he was standing when he disappeared.

Arthur and I are in Monaco to find Maxence, no matter what it takes.

But we might end up finding his body.

Review

"Holy Maxence! Max hotness! Max suspense! Max everything! Follow your favorite book boyfriends Casimir and Arthur as they try to figure out WHAT the hell happened to Maxence in Monaco, with all the opulence and lavish lifestyle you'd expect from Blair Babylon's Runaway Billionaires. This series starter is hot, hot, hot!" ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ USA Today bestselling romance author JJKnight
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"Blair!! LOVED it! A fun, sexy, fast-paced read that had me on the edge of my seat wanting to know what happened that night!" ~ Pippa Grant, USA Today BestsellingAuthor
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"What I love about Blair Babylon books is the worlds she creates, and One Night in Monaco is no exception. Luxury, power, wealth - all of it beyond your dreams - is a backdrop for our very human, very vulnerable, and often extremely alpha characters who show us how uniquely human we all are -- but Maxence? He's one of a kind. And hot. Whooooo boy." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ -- New York Times bestselling author Julia Kent
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Addictively entertaining and full of escapist goodness,this stylish page-turner left me breathless and begging for more!" ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ~New York Times bestselling author Annika Martin
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"This is One Night In Monaco, Billionaires In Disguise; Maxence written by the amazing Blair Babylon! This book has been a long awaited one! I'm so excited to finally dig into the man of mystery Maxence Grimaldi!! He has been in this series as friends of Casimir and Arthur, his sexy as h@ll friends from boarding school. Ms Babylon knows how to string you along and NEED to know about her wonderful characters. She never fails to amaze me with the amount of details and little flashes of other friends that she sprinkled throughout her books. Full of intrigue, sinister associates, mob related activity, utter indulgence of opulence and sexy sexy times! Hurry up with the next one Ms Babylon! I'm about to burst over here!!" ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ --Goodreads Reviewer
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"I knew that I would be drawn into another great series and it definitely got me out of the book funk I was in. Ms Babylon is an author who literally creates a world to escape into thats way out of my normal life, but so totally believable too. This book took me from the monotonous dreary reality of work, and whisked me to the cosmopolitan shores of Monaco and Italy.
Max is a character that has been in a few of the other books in the Billionaire world, hes always been a bit of an enigma and I can't wait to read the next book in his series.
I haven't read every book in this vast world of European Elite and Royal society, but if you want to get hooked then you can start with a book 1 in a few of the storylines free... What are you waiting for. Get hooked like me.
What I thought to One night in Monaco... Well I read it in one sitting, every page was more intriguing than the first. MAX has been a favourite character for a while, hes so mysterious and I can't wait to read the next books." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ -- Goodreads Reviewer
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Friends, Casimir, Arthur and Maxence, will do anything for the other. Max is missing...His friends fear the worst, when they look for Max, always coming up empty handed...Until Genoa Italy happened. Maxence, always the gentleman and rescuer, was needed by Simone. He would do anything to help get her home, where she will be safe. I want to thank, Blair Babylon, for bringing Max's story to life. I can't wait until the next episode. This most definitely gets 5 stars." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ -- Goodreads Reviewer

From the Inside Flap

Prince Maxence is tall, hot,ripped, and loaded. Why would a man like that disappear? He must be hidingsomething.

Max gives us all a warm glow. This is the prequel to the third arm of the billionaire’s musketeers. The story is enjoyable and am looking forward to first book. This just wets the appetite. Pick this appetizer up for the special price and anticipate the next installment

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally !!! It Begins......

O M G !!!!
Feels like I have been waiting for this book FOREVER !!!!
Suppose I have because the very first book I read from this Author was Working Stiff , CASIMIR , and ROX'S book. And Maxence as well as Arthur were in there . My appetite was whetted for more Rox, and Cad, but it was Arthur who got the next book . And the next. And then Wulf and Rae.
Then More Wulf and Rae.
Not complaining, because there were little snippets of Max and his friends, so I was happily reading away !!!

And NOW he is Here !!!!!
Maxence has been my ultimate bad boy fantasy !! ( YES , of Course he is bad, because otherwise I wouldn't be so attracted to him 😆😆 )
And reading small little antidotes about him only made my heart beat fast and melt all at the same time !!!!! Because ," bad boys " are usually " hurt boys " . And I want to kiss it and make it better !! ALL of it 😚😚😚
Maxence is the younger brother of Pierre, the " rat bastard " husband of Flicka from Flicka's and , and Rae and Wulf's epic books.

When we first meet Max , he has plans to go and be a priest of all things . Tell you what , if he ever did , there would be a Whole lot of females at church and confession !!!! He is ten steps beyond sexy, and that would be a crying shame that all that sexiness would be going to waste in priests robes !!

Anywhoo, Maxence has two best friends and they are Caz and Arthur.
They all grew up together and connected on a very brotherly type of way.
So , of course when Max ," disappears " , practically in his hometown without a trace, Arthur and Caz are called in .
This book is the first in the MAXCENCE Series of books, and I thought it was brilliant .
And Soooo funny !!
It was Just enough to catch you up . And I loved seeing ROX and Gen again ! And how much Max is cared about is crystal clear . Loved all of the hints about their shared experiences and it makes me want to re- read the entire series of BID as well as RID . ALL of them !!! Only problem for me was that it was too short of a story !!!!!!
I can barely wait to read the next book in this series !!! But I KNOW its coming !!!!
If you have read any of the Billionaire in Disguise or RockStars in Disguise, then this is a must have for you collection !!!

5.0 out of 5 stars a fast-paced adventure that will have your pulse pounding and your heart on your sleeve.

One Night in Monaco is a fast-paced adventure that will have your pulse pounding and your heart on your sleeve. Friends are reunited and a new adventure has begun. This adventure will usher in a new era of revelation, love, and hope. What comes along the way is anyone's guess, but be prepared to be completely enthralled, fully engaged, and utterly amazed.

Maxence is in battle over his heart, his mind, and his life. He knows what he wants, but will others allow him to have it? He just wants to walk a simple, happy path, but his options are short if not existent. All he can do is fight back with everything he has in order to find what he has always wanted. Once he does find it, nothing will tear him away from his end goal. What happens when you want nothing from the world, but it wants everything from you? Can you find a life that is worth living, or will you be left with nothing but a hollow heart and a plastic smile?

I have been looking forward to savoring Maxence's story for awhile now. He has quite a tale to tell, and I am loving what I have read so far. He is just as intriguing if not more so then his friends Arthur and Casimir. They make such a dynamic and fascinating group of friends who are literally there for each other no matter what. To have and keep such amazing friends is truly a blessing. They want nothing from each other except their honest friendship and undying loyalty. I can't wait to see what happens next!

Blair has kept the most interesting and fascinating of her characters for last. We know hardly anything about Max, but that will quickly change. I am so excited for this crazy and incredible adventure before me. I know that Blair will give us a once in a lifetime experience that we will never forget. Her deep passion and literary poise make each of her books a true delight and a precious gift to savor and enjoy. I encourage all romance readers to give her books a try. You will never be disappointed.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Intro to Maxence's Books
Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2021
Verified Purchase
This is a good introduction to Maxence's story, which I have been waiting for. Maxence is an interesting character, and this short novella provides good information to begin learning about him. I liked that he was always so willing to help women in distress, even if it puts him in danger. And I loved that his friendship with Arthur and Casimir was so close that they were willing to drop everything to help find him when he went missing. There is only a very little near the end which introduced his love interest, but it certainly caught my interest.

I am glad I waited until all the Maxence books were out to start this series -- because I can't wait to find out what happens next. I won't give spoilers for any of the Billionaires books, but I will say that I absolutely did not think Pierre suffered enough for what he had done.

My rating system is below.
1 star -- Hated it, or did not finish. I usually only give this rating if some of the content is truly objectionable to me, like if one of the main characters does something really awful, and gets away with it.
2 stars -- Didn't like it. This rating usually means that I thought the writing wasn't very good, the editing was terrible, I didn't like the characters, or it had other major flaws.
3 stars -- I liked it, but had some minor issues with it. This rating means that there were minor editing issues, the story needed more character development, it was just too unrealistic, or had some other fairly minor issue. The majority of books I read get this rating – I do not consider it a bad rating.
4 stars -- I liked it a lot. This is a high rating for me, and I rarely give a higher one.
5 stars -- I loved it, and will probably read it again. Very few books are good enough to get this rating from me. The ones that do are usually classics.

5.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining Action Adventure Prequel to Maxence's Story
Reviewed in Canada on August 18, 2020
Verified Purchase
Loved this entertaining action/adventure story. The depth of long standing friendship is proven when Arthur in Paris gets a phone call in the middle of the night that Maxence Grimaldi has gone missing, and he immediately calls Casimir in Amsterdam, and they fly off to Monaco (sans luggage) to find their missing third Musketeer. Of course their wives (6 months pregnant Gen and Roxanne) will not be left behind, and the four set out for an adventure of intrigue and action amongst the royalty and glitterati of Monaco. Shenanigans ensue as they pursue various leads.

I really enjoyed the story-it reminded me of a James Bond movie romp, but with two favourite Blair Babylon couples. For Blair's fans, there is a brief mention of connections to Xan and the ending sets up developments in Flicka’s story arc. This was a fun introduction to Maxence’s story, and we do get to follow him with a brief steamy encounter that might become a serious romance. Max's full story is now at the top of my Must Buy List!

5.0 out of 5 stars Off to an amazing start!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 21, 2020

Yay, the gang is back! Although it is preferable to have read the previous books covering Arthur and Casimir's stories, there is enough detail and background to the characters to allow you read this book on it's own. For me, the familiarity of the characters felt like coming home to the heart of the family, snuggling up on the sofa with a warm throw blanket and settling in for an action packed movie.

After watching Casimir and Rox's characters develop in the Billionaires in Disguise-Runaway Billionaires spin off. Arthur and Gen's characters develop in the Billionaires in Disguise-Runaway Billionaires Arthur Duet, here we finally see them all converge to save Max's ass, literally! Ahhh Max, otherwise known as Sir Galahad, a character I had not managed to find a connection with in previous books, yet here I find myself deeply engrossed in his story. Max is a sweetheart, too busy saving the world and damsels in distress to stop long enough to worry about his own safety. Or maybe saving others offers Max a distraction from what is really going on in his own life. Then, teasingly, from characters of old comes a new character. Maybe Max will finally find his someone special, a chance to find his very own Rae of sunshine (get it) and of hope.

I have found myself instantly drawn to this new character and I am excited to see exactly where their story is going to lead us. Desperate to get my hands on Rogue: Billionaires in Disguise: Maxence #1, I have ordered in advance. If you're looking for the next big character or storyline that is going to leave a lasting impact , then look no further. No other author has managed to leave an impact as much as Blair Babylon and her characters have. I cannot recommend this series enough.

I have waited what feels like forever for this book...and boy it did not disappoint at all. No spoilers but i am so in love with Max...hes been such an intriguing, mysterious character through out the rest of his posse's books. I love the descriptions of Paris too, several places are on my bucket list and it really feels like the author is right there (maybe she was??). desperate for the next book...but no pressure!! 2020 you have just redeemed yourself. Run out and buy this book ASAP.
This is an independent review..i have no links to this author and paid for the book in full.

5.0 out of 5 stars Epic Movie Trailer!
Reviewed in Canada on August 18, 2020

I've said it many times before. If I had the monetary means I would buy shares in the Blair Babylon library and start producing the series(s) as they deserve to be presented in all their glory, cinematically. Max's story has now been given its due. I pre-ordered on March 6/20. And Blair Babylon knocked it out of the ball park yet again! I have sight issues, so I tend to read slowly as I soak up her gifts to us. Suspense, action, wry humor, beloved characters, sumptuous international locales. What's left! Now for the Audio of 'One Night in Monaco'. Then, well after we sit back and drool over the luxury of this prequel, I'm going to be replaying the trailer(s) in my head.
