Bruid voor een Griek by Maya Banks
4.0
I have joined Manali Dey, a friend on Bookstagram, for the #MillsandBoonReadathon for which we are reading 18 books, coz it's '18! This is Book 14.
Now that Chrysander Anetakis and his wife, Marley, have settled down on Anetakis island; the running of their New York office lies on the shoulders of Theron Anetakis (the middle brother). Theron has traded places with Chrysander, leaving him the responsibility of their London office. Moreover, after facing disloyalty of epic proportions from such close quarters (Chrysander's PA was responsible for their almost downfall in the first book), the brothers are wary of trusting any employee again, to that degree.
In comes a letter, from the daughter of their late father's late friend. Isabella Caplan has just graduated and is now coming to New York. After her father's death, Chrysander had been responsible for her welfare as promised to each other by their respective fathers.
Isabella has always been in love with Theron, not that he has ever noticed, and now she has full plans to seduce him. Bella is a force to reckon with, baiting Theron at all times. And not only her but, everyone, it seems, is conspiring to bring them together.
It's been years since they last saw each other, face-to-face, and it comes as a shock to Theron when he first lays eyes on Bella. Gone is the gangly teen with braces, and enters a stunning woman! And his first line is "What the hell are you wearing?" With her belly ring and tattoo, Theron is smitten.
He himself has arranged to settle down with Alannis Gianopolous, a Greek girl, daughter to his late father's friend who is a shipping magnate. While for Bella, he intends to find a suitable groom for her to settle down, as per her wishes to marry quickly.
Theron himself arranges suitable grooms for Bella and then gets jealous seeing her with them. At one point, I felt really bad for Bella, she was just constantly trying to get him to love her - talk about unrequited love! For Theron I'll only say, make up your mind man!
It has just the sweetest and a devilish ending.
P.S. I loved how the author provided glimpses of Chrysander and Marley's life. After all, Book One of this series will always be the best one for me.
