Greek’s Cinderella Contract is a standalone title that quickly captured my attention, and then my heart. I have read Abby Green for many years (she’s an auto-request/buy for me), and I’ve loved every story… but Axel and Hope are something special. Oh, there is the passion, the deal made, the absolute commanding presence of the hero, yet underlying that is a softer feeling in an arrogant man, or perhaps just a soft spot for Hope. And while there is an innocent air surrounding Hope, she’s no pushover for any man, except one that she’d love to keep beyond this fake fiancée arrangement.
In Ms. Green’s large catalog of work, it’s not easy to pick a favorite, but I’d put Greek’s Cinderella Contract in my top 5. Their romance is well-written (no surprise there), engaging, emotional, and passionate, with a softness that isn’t sugary but is there nonetheless. If this sounds like your kind of Contemporary Romance, you’ll absolutely love Hope and Axel’s romance.

A sweet, uncomplicated romance – perhaps with just a little too much sugar!
Sometimes I simply want a romance that is exactly that – a romance. No angst, no
infidelity (which I absolutely despise in my romances!), no jealous or evil other
woman or man, and no unnecessary drama. The Greek’s Cinderella Contract gave me
just that.
Abby Green is one of my favourite romance authors, and I really enjoyed the
simplicity and sweetness of this story. In an age where so much of what we read
and watch seems filled with violence and unpleasantness, there was something
rather lovely about escaping into Hope and Axel’s world for a few hours.
Hope Smith is an incredibly sweet heroine – perhaps almost too good at times –
while Axel is carrying so much regret and loneliness. He may be a billionaire, but he
lives in a world almost without colour until he meets Hope and has an immediate
reaction to her. Their meet-cute was particularly sweet, and I enjoyed watching
Hope gradually bring some warmth and colour back into his life.
My only criticism is that I wanted just a little more depth. Everything was so sweet
and gentle that occasionally it tipped into sugar overload, and a little more
emotional tension would have made the romance even more satisfying.
Still, this was a thoroughly enjoyable, comforting escape and exactly the kind of
light, naughty pleasure I sometimes need!

A contemporary romance with elements of romantic comedy – captivating, glamorous and brimming with irresistible chemistry with a Greek billionaire.
A fake relationship with the boss, Greek charm and a Cinderella-style transformation full of passion.
The plot follows Axel Drakos, a powerful Greek tycoon who urgently needs to project financial stability in order to close a crucial business deal after being left without a fiancée. His solution is to convince Hope Smith, the cheerful and innocent flight attendant on his private jet, to sign a contract and pretend to be in a dazzling romance for the press. What begins as a temporary arrangement and a Cinderella-style transformation soon sparks a fiery and uncontrollable attraction between the reserved billionaire and the optimistic flight attendant.
Axel’s need to save his business and Hope’s surprise at finding herself caught up in a jet-set arrangement create constant tension, as the contract blurs into genuine desire that neither of them could have foreseen.
This is a hugely entertaining billionaire romantic comedy with that classic Harlequin touch that I love so much – thank you, Miss Green, for this gem.

“Greek’s Cinderella Contract” by Abby Green
-This is a fun, passionate fake-fiancée romance packed with chemistry, humor, and plenty of sparks. I received a free copy and am voluntarily sharing my honest thoughts.
Axel is ruthless and guarded, while Hope is sweet, innocent, funny, and strong enough to challenge him at every turn. It is enjoyable watching Hope break through his walls and bring the brooding bachelor back to life as their fake relationship became very real.
The heartwarming ending and big-family epilogue is great! Another enjoyable read from one of my favorite authors!

Greek’s Cinderella Contract was an engaging and emotional romance with all the classic Harlequin elements I enjoy. The contrast between the powerful, guarded Greek hero and the resilient heroine created plenty of tension and chemistry. I appreciated the heroine’s strength and determination, even when faced with difficult circumstances. While some plot points followed familiar genre tropes, Abby Green delivered enough passion, drama, and heartfelt moments to keep me invested. An entertaining escape and a satisfying romance overall.

I loved this fake-romance story about Axel, a businessman needing a replacement fiancée for a major deal, and Hope, a financially struggling private jet stewardess. Their dramatic, food-spilling first meeting leads to a written agreement that evolves into a genuine relationship. This Cinderella-style romance was touching, humorous, and captivating from start to finish, offering a great mix of drama, moderate heat, and a happy ending.

Greek's Cinderella Contract is a contracted fake relationship between billionaire Axel and his flight stewardess, Hope. Axel needs to present a stable relationship in order to obtain his next business opportunity and decides a fake whirlwind relationship with Hope will improve his standing.

It is great to find out who could change the hero's views and what it takes to finally feel and acknowledge love.
I like the heroine's take on life and love, even when entering a contract with him and succumbing to the irresistible desire that takes over them.
There are some common typical descriptions and wordings that aren't to my liking.

I’ve read my mom’s Mills & Boon books in my teens, they formed my love for romance and now reading them again is like a full circle moment.
Hope was amazing, she is sweet, innocent, fun and easy to love, what Axel has to experience first hand. The epilogue was sweet and heartwarming.

A sensual delight that gives the heart something to hold on to. Green taps into the drama of temptation to spotlight the beauty of falling in love. Axel and Hope take the passion of attraction and the emotional, uncertainty and turn it into a haunting dance with destiny that lingers within the soul.

Axel needs a woman on his arm to help seal a deal. Who better than Hope the stewardess who is on her first day on the job on his plane. Contracts were signed and it was supposed to be temporary.

Abby is one of my favorite authors. In this Cinderella-style story, Axel needs a woman by his side and proposes the idea to Hope; however, their fake relationship turns into something else as feelings emerge and they decide to pursue their "happily ever after."
October 7, 2026
This is the story of Axel and Hope, a "convenient" fake fiancée. The story is good with a little passion, spice and emotional bits. I love the banter and humor in the story too. I like the characters and how their story develops. Such a refreshing read.
October 22, 2026
The second choice…
Axel needs a fake fiancée, stat.
Enter Hope, the stewardess on his plane. He draws up the contract and she signs. But she definitely gets more than she bargained for.
