The original book blurb is horrible! I feel it gives the wrong impression, maybe something like this would be more appropriate:
When Gabi Turner burst into Greek CEO Andreas Simonides's life, she told his secretary it was a matter of life and death and was given 2 minutes of the CEO's precious time...
That's all she needed to turn all of their lives upside down.
Gabi is going against her sister's dying wish and contacting her twin nephews father, playboy CEO Andreas Simonides, before taking them back with her to America. But he isn't what she expected and he has some shocking news, he isn't her nephews father... his brother is...
Buying time for his brother, he whisks Gabi and the three months old twins she's taken care of since they were born to the far side of his family's home island.
Andreas lost his heart the moment he saw his nephews... but not only to the beautiful babies...
3.5 stars - A short but wonderful read!!! Likeable characters!!! Bittersweet novel about loyalty and the length family would go to protect one another!! Beautiful backdrop of Greek Islands!! (Sigh) - a simple ending with a surprise wedding...all in all..a good read
This started out with her finding out who her sister's twins father was. She went to confront him at work. Though he is related he is not the father. His twin brother is. Now most of the story line revolves around the twins becoming involved with their other family, she has started to become more involved with their uncle. The story has a different type of ending. But it seems to work. There is another story line about another character who was introduced in this book.
This was a good read/listen. I liked both MCs and although there are misunderstandings, they aren't outlandish. In fact the story is pretty believable as far as the characters and their emotional reactions. No evil OW or twin or manipulative parents here, lol. I was a wee bit annoyed by the ending. Not because it was sappy and overly sweet, which it was, but because he was kind of mean to keep her in the dark for so long. But then I am not one who likes surprises, so perhaps I'm projecting my own prejudices?
3 1/2 Stars! ~ This is a charming lovestory. Both our hero and heroine experience a love at first sight reaction to each other. Gabi thinks Andreas has a fiancee and this gives her the strength to keep him at arms length. At times our couple seems almost too good to be true with their selfless personalities. There is some drama over the babies, that resolves very nicely. A very nice book for a sunny afternoon read.
This novel felt very short but was very good. I found the whole thing a bit bittersweet, due to what happens with the twins and such in the novel. I loved the hero and heroine together, it was special.
The story was good. More realistic than expected. Liked the fact that everything was coming together throughout the story instead of waiting to last minute. Did not like the infidelity.
I love this kind of story. Happy, light, some surprising turns of events and makes you forget your own problems and most always ends the way you want them to.
