A WIFE IN EVERY SENSE is part of Entangled's Europe's
Hottest Billionaires series. I like Joanne Walsh's
handling of the "romance with the boss" and "marriage of
convenience" tropes. This story is a little different
from similarly themed stories I've read because, in this
one, it's the woman who is slow to trust the man. Most of
the other romance stories I've read with a powerful man
and a marriage of convenience have a man who is often
quick to doubt the woman. Kate seems very real to me
because Joanne Walsh makes her a strong yet flawed
character.
I love marriage of convenience themed stories and A WIFE
IN EVERY SENSE did not disappoint. Having the story told
from both perspectives gives the reader extra insight
into the two main characters. Although they come from
different backgrounds, Kate and Aleksei have both been
burned by an ex. Kate was left humiliated by a man she
thought she cared for in the past. Aleksei's sincerity
about wanting a family and wanting a more stable one
than he grew up with made me like him more. I like that
although Kate and Aleksei both clash at times, they never
go too far and say things that can't be taken back. The
tender moments balance the ones that sizzle. The exotic
locale of a Greek island adds to the drama and beauty of
the romance. In a way, the island becomes another
character, especially in relation to Aleksei and his
family.
A WIFE IN EVERY SENSE is sexy, fun and full of raw
emotion. The hero and heroine are both sympathetic and
make a good match. Alexsei's toxic step-mother and a
stalker spice things up with a little conflict without
cluttering up the romance. I look forward to reading more
by Joanne Walsh, as well as the next book in this
Europe's Hottest Billionaires series. I would love to
see what happens to Kate's friend, Lydia.
Kate Burrows is crushing on her boss big time. Aleksei
Aleksanou is tall, dark, and every inch the image of a
classic Greek god-if said Greek god was incredibly sexy,
rich, and a complete player. The only way she can get over
him is by quitting her job and seeing the world...once she
indulges in one wickedly-hot night with him.
Only now she's pregnant.
Aleksei is furious when Kate arrives on the small Greek
island of Naxea and tries to hide the truth for him. He
takes matters into his own hands-by announcing the pregnancy
to his family and asking her to marry him. Now Kate must
decide if she can marry the man of her hottest, sexiest
dreams...knowing she will never be the wife of his heart.
