Ok, I've only just started reading romance, and this mini is the reason why I've stayed away from them for so long. It's one of those stories where the 'twist' in the end is supposed to make everything ok, but it was just so cliched and stupid that I felt dumber for having read it. Thank goodness it was short enough that I was able to knock it over in my lunch break.
Single woman has son, runs into her ex and his new mistress. Still gets hot at the thought of him. He still hates her beca...more

Alanna Richards used to be the mistress to one very wealthy Leon Andreakos. Can you guess his nationality? I don't know why this one wasn't titled The Greek Tycoon's Mistress's Secret. Too Long? Title was already taken? Anyway, back to the story. Something happened in their past that lead her to flee from him and is now living in borderline poverty. Four years she has managed to avoid him when she accidentally runs into him in a department store. Leon hasn't ever been able to get her out of his...more
In it's predictability this is a perfect example how a Harlequin novella should be written. It hits all the cliche's in a perfect harmony with feelings shown and felt, not told. My only complaint is that this was too short.
And I never-ever-ever give Harlequins more than three stars. Until now.

This story shouldn't of even been written. When I fnished reading it and all was said and done, well it was stupid. The conclusion, jumping to conclusions. It just seemed so superfluous. I wasn't too happy with this novel.
I hadn't read a harlequin story in a century :-) and now I remember why...too sweet and sugary and the women rarely have a backbone. Not my kind of story.
Reminded me of why I hated Mills and Boons in the first place. How awful.
Short but emotionally satisfying; it made me cry.
Très brève histoire quand une femme cache la vérité de la famille de son ex-amant et son ex-mari (le frère de son ex-amant) pour sauver la réputation de la famille. J'ai toujours du mal d'avaler les histoires de 'coup-de-foudre' parce que l'amour a besoin du temps pour réaliser, durer et prouver. Il n'y avait pas assez de développement des caractères pour que je crois vraiment que leur histoire d'amour va durer. Mais, bon, il s'agit d'un roman romantique et ce n'est pas une classique littéraire...more
The Mistress's Secret is only 50 pages, but it packs quite a punch!

Um, okay.
Ms James has a weakness for Greeks and their ladies. This is such a story. Crazy rich Greek guy meets poor English woman and takes her on as a lover. Stuff happens, and they end up getting married in the end, living happily ever after.
It's not a story that sticks with you, but it's a perfect read for the beach. Or the plane-ride as it were for me. I was done before we flew in over Italy.
A nice summer read.

Great short story, I really enjoyed reading it.
Heureusement qu'il est court!
