Veena’s review of The Dimitrakos Proposition by Lynne Graham
Contemporary Romance published by Harlequin Present 01 Jan 14
A Harlequin romance is supposed to be an escape and this one definitely is with its interestingly different twist on the Greek billionaire with the virginal English miss. Acheron Dimitrakos is being forced into a corner and spitfire Tabby’s need provides him with the perfect solution.
So these two strangers are married. Strangely, Ash finds that he can’t resist either Tabby or the beautiful baby girl who’s come into his life. But the reason why he married Abby in the first place exists and her obsession is getting worse. He needs to protect Abby and its definitely much more than a platonic marriage by name that Abby had originally asked for.
Aren’t these platonic marriages in name getting old in today’s day and age where promiscuity is so prevalent and no one needs a wedding ring to hide behind? But then again I suppose if the authors wrote about reality we wouldn’t really buy their stories as an escape, would we?
Grade: B
Summary:
A man she can’t say “no” to… Sharp-tongued, independent firestorm Tabby Glover will do anything to get Greek billionaire Acheron Dimitrakos to support her adoption claim over his cousin’s small child. The last thing she expects is his outrageous marriage proposal! She has no choice but to say yes, even if the arrogant tycoon can’t stop looking down his nose at her for one minute! Tabby can see that there is more to this proposition and this devastatingly handsome man than meets the eye. But as the thin veil between truth and lies is lifted, will this marriage become more than in name only?
