Second chance romance! *by K***M on Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2017* "Come on, princess. Live a little." - Derek WestGoing Down Hard is the 3rd book in the Billionaire Bad Boys series, and Derek is part of the trio of best friends who created a successful app-turned IPO, and he is now a billionaire. But, Derek comes from very humble beginnings. His mom was the maid, and his dad the gardener for a very wealthy family. He grew up in the guest house on their property. He was about the same age as their daughter Cassie, but of course they didn't run in the same circles. Also, he went to public school, and Cassie to private school. They crossed paths one night by the pool in the backyard, and he kissed her. He'd hoped for more, but something happened the next day to change his mind about her. Then they both left for college, and that was that.Flash forward a decade or so, and Cassie is the editor of an online tech magazine, owned by her family's multimedia company, which isn't doing that well. She has been trying to interview many CEOs, and other important people in the tech industry to give her magazine a higher profile. Derek notoriously doesn't do interviews, but she's hoping she can get him to make an exception for her. He agrees, to see her and, of course, sparks fly again, as they had in the past. But, she's still surprised when he agrees to let her write her story. Even when it means shadowing him for a while. But no one is more surprised than Derek himself!This was a bit of a second chance romance, since they knew each other before, though they were never really together in the past. I really liked their banter, and their chemistry felt really organic because of it. There were many misunderstandings between them from the past, but they moved through them like adults, after having an open communication. Imagine that! I really enjoyed that about them. They reacted to things like adults, and didn't jump to conclusions. There's nothing I hate more in a book than to feel that the entirety of the story's conflict could have been avoided with one simple conversation. There was none of that here.I liked seeing the characters from the prior stories in the series. Also, I really enjoyed some of the side characters in this story, especially Derek's mother. Meanwhile, Cassie's father and brother were wretched, and I wanted to reach through the book and punch them in the mouth every time they said something horrible, or thoughtless, to her. They were well written antagonists, and you could really feel their entitlement and their disdain for others. I hated them with a passion.I really enjoy Carly's writing, and her couples fit well together. There's great chemistry, and she really makes you feel what they are feeling. The pace felt good, and I loved the easy banter and dialogue between both the 2 main characters, and between Derek and his friends/partners. You can really feel how much the guys love and care about each other. It's nice to see truly close male friendships in books, and not just female ones!I would definitely recommend this book, and I'm very intrigued by the premise for book 4, Going In Deep. It will be quite the task to redeem Julian's character, as he was the villain of book 1! Looking forward to it!I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ OMG LOVED IT SOO MUCH!!!!!!!!! *by E***Y on Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2017* OMG LOVED IT SOO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!

Years later Derek graduated from college starting their successful company, Blink, with his friends Lucas and Kade all he wanted to do was punish the Storm family for how they mistreated his family right before he went to college on a scholarship. Cassie had spoken badly about him when she was with her snobby friends when he worked for her family which made Derek dislike her as well. They accused his mother of stealing Mrs. Storm's necklace and had her arrested and fired her and his dad without any severance package. A while later his dad died and Derek blamed the Storms because they had no medical coverage to diagnose his illness until it was too late. Meanwhile Cassie regretted how she treated Derek when they last saw each other and wanted to apologize to him for years. She was running her family's magazine Take a Byte after her father gave the running of the family business to her brother who was an unemployed playboy when she worked there for years building the family business. Doing an interview with Derek West, who was now a billionaire and did not do interviews would help save their magazine which surprised her that he agreed to do it. Now she could say she was sorry and he could find out if he could finally put his past behind him by getting revenge or forgiving her and her family. This is where this sexy erotic romantic story begins with Derek and Cassie getting their happily ever after when they learn to forgive and love each other inspite of their past. I like how the three friends, Kade, Lucas and Derek are there for each other no matter what happens they will have each others back. The next book in this series puts Kade, Maxie and Kendall, her sister in a tense situation when Julian wants to prove his love for Kendall is real. He has to prove to them all that he has changed as well. I highly recommend this series of books as they are all very hot and romantic with just the right of excitement and action which makes for interesting stories. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ie/products/39542764-going-down-hard-billionaire-bad-boys-book-3](https://www.desertcart.ie/products/39542764-going-down-hard-billionaire-bad-boys-book-3) --- *Product available on Desertcart Ireland* *Store origin: IE* *Last updated: 2026-05-03*
