1.0 out of 5 stars waste of time and money, October 20, 2007

By	Alice Door (London Below) - See all my reviews

This book is simply awful. There are far too many internal monologues which add nothing new to the story but keep repeating what we already know from the back cover of the book. Only after the first 100 pages we get to learn of the motives for the actions of the hero, while the heroine acts for the love a half sister which she did now that existed until a couple of months ago. The heroine is barely sketched, we don't know anything about her past, where does she come from, how does she live? And the hero has so many mood swings that you feel like strangling him. You know what to expect when you start reading Harlequin romance, but this is far below even for their standards.

The Greek Tycoon's Unwilling Wife
Kate Walker
November 2007
Harlequin Presents

Love is a double-edged sword. It can bring wondrous joy or the deepest pain. Kate Walker is a master of meshing both sides in her stories. She keeps you wondering how her characters will ever find happiness right up until the end. Your emotions will be mixed in with theirs bringing an incredible depth to her book. The Greek Tycoon's Unwilling Wife is a perfect example of her brilliant skills.

Rebecca must put her broken heart on the line once again. Her precious baby niece requires costly medical care. Swallowing her pride, she writes to her soon-to-be ex-husband asking for his help. Becca hopes that even though something changed the love Andreas felt for her, he would not be able to deny a child in need. Becca never understood why he threw her out of his life but when it came to her family, she would risk anything. Before Becca has a chance to explain the details of why she needs his help so desperately, Andreas Petrakos is in a car accident. His Personal Assistant calls her with the shocking news. Possibly even more shocking, was the fact that Andreas was asking for her.

Becca flies immediately to Greece. She fears returning to Andreas's villa and facing the memories of the horrible night when her fairy tale marriage shattered. However, Andreas wants her there this time and she still needs his help. Her battered heart would just have to survive the reunion. But once again, Becca is in for a shock. Andreas's memory was lost in his accident. He did not remember they were married. Obviously, he did not ask for her out of any feelings of love. He does not even recall asking for her at all.

Andreas was determined to be cautious. He may be strongly attracted to Becca but he has no idea how far their relationship has gone. His bruises are fading but until his mind clears, he does not want to risk making foolish mistakes. So why was he insanely jealous whenever she talked to his PA? Did that mean he considered her his? When his memory returns, will he be happy she is there? In the meantime, Andreas must fight the growing passion Becca's mere presence inspires.

Ms. Walker takes her characters on a sensual journey delving deep into their emotions. Once Andreas's memory returns they have to face their history. He is not thrilled with what the past reveals. Becca cannot give up or her niece will pay the ultimate price. She never understood why Andreas turned on her and it is time she found out. He definitely still wants her body. She must discover what killed his love and trust. The Greek Tycoon's Unwilling Wife is a dynamic book that is guaranteed to touch your heart.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Kate Walker Book Never Fails to Entertain!, November 24, 2007

By	Holly Fuhrmann (PA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

And this is no exception. Misunderstandings lead to Becca and Andreas' break-up, but when Andreas is in an accident, Becca will do whatever it takes to be with him, even if it means lying about their past.

Kate Walker is one of those authors who always leaves the reader with a smile and a warm heart.
