Good Presents story

This is a nice angsty read, with a hero and heroine who both have abandonment issues. He's taken refuge in cold duty, responsible for cleaning up his wayward family's messes. She's looking for love and belonging, for little Annabel and ultimately for herself. This is one of the better HP's I think. The hero is alpha but he's not needlessly cruel or jerk-y. I liked that he's been celibate for 2 years, instead of being the usual stud cliche, which is how he knows he's not a dad. The heroine could have been more spirited. She's Welsh which is refreshingly unusual, but nothing is really made of that. The circumstances by which she becomes Annabel's guardian are really hard to believe though. Note: the baby is not the hero's or the heroine's (and you know this pretty early on), so those who dread the Secret Baby plot need not fear.

Tension, Passion in a Greek setting!

Kate is another new author for me and an exceptional one at that with this almost "Greek Tragedy"! At times, this was painful to read as Lukas struggled with his emotions and refused to love! He is a magnificent Greek alpha, shoulders his entire family's problems and always rises to the cause and takes responsibility for their misconduct. The first few chapters are intense due to the fact that both characters, Lukas and Rhiannon are immediately drawn to each other. The air sizzles and crackles between them from the very beginning. When Rhiannon contacts Lukas it's for an urgent reason.....she is the ward of an old friends infant daughter, Annabel, who recently passed away. Her friend told her Lukas is the father and because of her past upbringing she feels it's important for the infant to be with family. She knows what it's like not to belong as she was adopted and never felt loved. Love is the most important thing to Rhiannon and she hopes someday to find it. Lukas figures out that the Annabel's father is his nephew Christos, an uncaring, spoiled playboy. No matter at what cost, Lukas is going to take responsibility for this child and claims her as family. However, he demands until matters are settled that Rhiannon accompany them to Greece. Sparks, sensual tension, all of it and more flare up between this couple. As the days go on, Rhiannon realizes that she loves this baby girl, she fights her attraction for Lukas and worries what the outcome will be.....should she allow this dysfunctional family to be involved in raising Annabelle? Should she stay in Greece to be close to this child she has grown to love and how will she deal with her feelings that are growing for Lukas The passion, the heat, the tension and the heartache that encompass this couple will have you in tears. Kate Hewitt sincerely has a "winner" with The Greek Tycoons Convenient Bride; it's an exceptional story and will make you believe in love and happy endings!

:0)

I dont think it was a bad read, it was a good read. The ending was a pretty good ending. just didnt like that it took one page which is the last page for him to say love you but still a good read. give it a try.

A great read with added depth

Rhiannon only went to France to do what she saw as her duty to her dying friend. She had no idea the man she went to find would both distrust her and yet arouse feelings of desire she had never known before. Lukas has devoted himself to duty, swearing never to give into the weakness of love and yet Rhiannon affects him more than he cares to admit. This is another excellent read by Kate Hewitt. Rhiannon and Lukas have both suffered intense emotional pain in their past which is shown to affect the way they behave throughout the book with skilful plotting. The characters have depth because of this. Once again the descriptive passages work on all the senses and whisk the reader off to the warmth of a Greek island. I can't wait to read Kate's next book.
