I was excited for this book. Not because of the title or cover (those felt like a million other romance books) but because the blurb. I thought it was going to be hilarious to read of a young woman using the worst pick up lines imaginable. It was. Marianna is very socially awkward and somewhat weird I get the feeling that she spends way to much time with her brother or with her head in a book. Not that reading alot is bad. (There is no such thing as reading too much). But she is naive and needs some real world experience.

Moving on. There are some things about this book that I love and some things I really disliked.

For example, I loved how quirky the heroine came across. She has a thing for languages and at the beginning of the book she ends up telling the hero alot of random facts about different languages. I ended up giggling a little.

Another example is I disliked that the heroine gave a false name when she met the hero. I remember being Marianna's age a few years ago and hoping for a relationship. I don't agree to all she planned in order to loose her virginity but it's ultimately up to her. However, I really disliked that she used a false name. It feels morally wrong like she's lying to get sex. I don't usually like one-night stands in books but feel it can sometimes lead to something more. She didn't even allow that to happen. However, I find it funny that Nico realized it was a fake name in under a minute.

Overall, I liked the book. Its a fairly quick and funny read. The book has a lot of typical tropes found in romance but the writer does a great job of making these tropes funny to read.

I found this to be a sweet romance that incorporated entertaining moments, misunderstandings between the couple, and plenty of chemistry and heat. Well done, Ms. London...on your A-game as always!

I actually found myself hurting for the male lead role this time. Very uncommon for me. Nico's childhood and what he had to overcome to become the man he is today was very touching.

I really enjoyed this book. I loved the chemistry between the H/h as they fell in love. The story was unique and fast moving. I thoroughly enjoyed this story and would highly recommend it.

I didn’t get the title of the book. Beauty and the Greek Billionaire. Sure, Nico acts beastly but beauty went in with him to save her father, not because she was preggers, and she didn’t have 7 older brothers. Was the brothers a play on Snow White?
I thought Mariana was a little weird. She loses her virginity and gets knocked up by a guy she barely knows and then she is the one to ask him to marry her. Nico and his unresolved feelings of being lonely and unloved don't excuse his behavior but he manages to pull it together by the end.
Other than some questionable behaviors by both Nico and Mariana, it was a good novel.

Nico's wooing skills are just not there, “what if I take you away for a weekend? Two days, that’s all my schedule can afford, and that should appease anyone who asks.” I liked this book, I liked that Nico learned to loosen up.

This is a sweet and sexy romance that I just loved. Marianna is a young woman cloistered by her brothers in their efforts to protect her. Nico is a man damaged by his past and feels unlovable. When Marianna travels with her brothers to Greece, she decides its her opportunity to break out of her protective cocoon and experience things for the first time.

When Marianna and Nico's paths cross, Marianna has no idea who Nico is, but quickly learns who he is after their afternoon's dalliance leads to unexpected consequences. Nico is determined to do the right thing, but does not trust Marianna. Marianna is determined to create a real thing, despite all of Nico's efforts to the contrary.

I thoroughly enjoyed this novel and fans of the genre will love it. While this is a somewhat familiar trope, the author has added enough twists to make it feel interesting and new. I loved the characters and felt invested in their story...I found myself wishing for them to get their HEA ending.

The author is on my must read authors' list, and, if you enjoy the genre, should probably be on yours as well.
