Rachel Connelly has finally had a major breakthrough in her
career with the Green National Opera. She has a leading role,
not the leading lady role, but a leading role all the same,
and tonight is her opening night. Rachel is very excited and
it goes perfectly for her--until a knock on the door reveals
the reason she left her hometown and ended up in Greece in the
first place: her first and only love – Ben. Ben Slater
believed he was doing the right thing in lying to Rachel and
sending her away from him. However, he has never forgotten
how she made him feel or how she looked when he sent her
away. Now he is in Greece for a business deal and he is not
going to miss this opportunity to get Rachel back, even if he
has to go through her roommate Guy.
Rachel still wants Ben, but she's unwilling to risk him
breaking her heart again. She decides to take advantage of
the half-lie Ben got from Guy and suggests they have an
affair. Ben never expected the spark between them to flair
into an inferno so quickly and when Rachel makes her
suggestion, he decides to use it to his advantage to get her
to fall in love with him again. Both Ben and Rachel have an
underlying plan in agreeing to their affair, but when it ends,
will there by a happy ever after or do the fates have another
ending in store for them?
A Greek Affair is about two very strong-willed
people who separated under bad terms and came back together
after years of being apart. Rachel is living and working in
Greece, but her heart is still back in her hometown and with
her first love. Ben never lost his love for Rachel and has
decided to get her back into his life and bed. I found the
passages that Ben and Rachel had to go through only added to
their joy and the intensity of their passion when they finally
came back together. It also added to my pleasure as I read of
their struggles, and at times, I wanted to knock their heads
together for being so bullheaded (this includes Guy). I was
truly excited to find that not only were Ben and Rachel going
to get their forever love, but Guy also found his love by the
end. A Greek Affair has an underlying plot of
half-lies, but I found they were all done by a person trying
to do what they believed was best for another. I also found
that they added to the anticipation of discovering what would
happen next for all the parties. A Greek Affair
has passion and misunderstandings that make it a story that
should be read and enjoyed with the knowledge that a happy
ending can happen to everyone. |
