Their relationship was perfect. Bliss. Until their wedding day, the start of their honeymoon. The day that Andreas Petrakos threw Rebecca out, swearing he never wanted to see her again.
It’s been almost a year since that day and the events of their fight were vividly etched in Becca’s mind. She had vowed never to seek him out or ask for a thing, but her baby niece’s life is at stake. Swallowing her pride, she contacts Andreas for the money needed to save the baby’s life. She received a cold response directing her to his lawyer. Before she can put together a letter stating the needs of her request Andreas’ personal assistant contacts her. Andreas has been in an automobile crash and is asking for her.
The events of the past year are a blank for Andreas. Except for Becca. The heaven they shared and created. Yet when he sees her he realizes there was so much more to their relationship. There’s a raw need drawing him to her, yet she pushes him away and is evasive. Her skittishness leaves him no choice but to slowly seduce her.
Becca is oh so tempted to give in to Andreas, but what will happen when his memory returns. Will their brief time together help mend the hurt, the giant chasm between them? She soon finds out. With his anger and accusations it’s time for her to reveal the entire truth. But is it too late?
This story often focuses on Becca’s recollections of the day their marriage began and ended as well as her withering hope and fears of their future, whatever that may be, and her desire for Andreas…
Andreas and Becca’s chemistry simmers. At times it simmers with passion and need with an underlying layer of hurt and fear. It’s obvious when the reader is through with the last word and leaves Andreas and Becca behind to have their happily ever after they’ll do so with the knowledge that whether the couple plays, loves, or fights it will be with great zeal and gusto.
In The Greek Tycoon’s Unwilling Wife Kate Walker delivers the passion and sizzling volatility that’s synonymous with the Harlequin Presents line. Presents fans will be pleased.
