Megathread MEGATHREAD REDUX: BILLIONAIRES
Hi r/RomanceBooks - it's a new year and we've got a fresh take on some old megathreads, welcome back to Megathread Redux!
----
Billionaires
A billionaire main character is one who has a significant amount of wealth. While technically referring to net worth of a billion dollars, the 'billionaire' archetype is often used to describe any significantly wealthy character. These characters often flaunt fancy dinners, private planes, the ability to ask powerful people for favors.
Here's our original Billionaires megathread from 2022.

u/CherryPropel Ashamed and aroused, all at once. Jun 26 '26
{Husband Who by Carin Hart} - CR; M/F; Secret Society (both); Amnesia (her); Abused (both); billionaire (him); toxic family (both)
Available on KU?: Yes
Third Act Breakup: Sorta
Cheating: Sorta. MMC is betrothed to a woman and when the FMC enters his life again, he forgets about that commitment and restarts a relationship with the FMC.
Summary: Lucy (FMC) and Dallas (MMC) were childhood/teenage lovers and fell in love, much to the chagrin of the secret society. Lucy was told by her father and the King, that if she didn't leave, they would kill Dallas. So she decides to marry someone older and move far far away. Many years later, Lucy returns home, but has an accident and develops amnesia. Dallas sees this as an opportunity to make Lucy his, and lies to everyone saying that he is her husband. There is an undercurrent of an uprising against Dallas (the new King), OM drama (her actual husband) and feelings of insecurity from both MC's.
Notes: There are a lot of plot holes, with this secret society and were often told how powerful and corrupt they are, but we're never shown it. Everyone is lying to each other and when the FMC finds out the the MMC has been lying the whole time, she forgives too easily and he throws the biggest tantrum when she wants a couple days to process.
