This was an entertaining read, especially because of Rania. She is adventurous, spontaneous and a very intriguing character. Nothing about her is simple or straightforward. Demetri on the other hand is quite the opposite, always in control and believes in planning before doing something. Although that changes when he meets Rania. Some how she manages to aboard his yacht without notice and then pretends to be his wife. As it so happens Demetri was also in need of a wife and Rania seems like the p

So cute. Demetri and Rania were a cute couple. Rania was able to show Demetri what it was like to love. I really enjoyed the story. One of my favorite parts was when they caught Kosta destroying Demetri's grandmothers garden. So funny. And, of course, the blue pills for grandfather. Loved the story. 4 stars because I thought the ending could have been better. Seemed rushed and not all ends were tied up. There should have been a reunion we could have experienced with the uncle she loved so much.

This is a fast paced thriller from the very start!
Demetri Christodoulou is a self made man, determined and wealthy. He's on board his latest acquisition, a custom built ship, on his way back to the island of his birth, Gavdos, when a naked woman joins him in the shower. That is surprising enough but she's immediately followed by two gunmen who demand to take her into their custody!

I received an ARC of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
I don't remember "opposites attract" to be such an entertaining notion, at least until I read this book. You have to admit that the hero's need for control was no match for the heroine's unpredictability. And that's a good thing. Everybody needs to let loose sometimes, and everybody also needs a little control and discipline in their lives. In this case, the main characters' contradictory personaliti ...more

What started with Demetri showering and being surprised by a naked Rania. Who then claimed she was his wife to the two thugs that broke in on them, was just the warm up for this story. She needs him to help get her uncle free and he needs her to make a deal happen. Neither had plans for anything other than a fake marriage to help them reach their goals but even the best laid plans go awry.
Don't want to give away to much of this very entertaining and sometimes laugh out loud story.

If the beginning of this book doesn't grab your interest nothing will!! Rania and Demetri meet in a very unconventional way but it definitely works. Loved them together and the author did a great job of taking their relationship forward at a very believable pace. Rania's strength, determination, and love of family make her a very endearing character. Demetri took me a little longer to warm up to but his passion and kindness for his family (well most of them) won me over. They are very different

I really enjoyed this book by Alexia Adams. Rania and Demetri sparked right from the beginning, and I liked how they both made the other character stronger, like it should be in real life. I enjoyed their romance, the plot, setting, and even the minor characters. Everything built the story and made it an enjoyable read. The sex scenes were steamy without being too explicit, which I always appreciate. I have read all of Ms. Adams books, and she is an author I will actively look for more from.
4 stars

The Greek's Stowaway Bride is a sweet and fun fast paced read. The author takes an old trope and gives a new coat of paint and you can just sit back and enjoy the ride. Rania makes the story fun despite the fact she is in dire straits she retains he spunk and sense of fun. This book is truly a fun escape.

**3.5 Stars**
Demetri is rich, very much so, but he's always been lacking in one area, at least in his opinion. He's always felt his grandfather felt he was less than due to the circumstances of his birth. To make himself feel better, Demetri plans to purchase land near his grandfather's and turn it into a resort. The catch, the seller requires Demetri be married. While it's not something he wants to do, nor is the woman more than a friend in all honesty, he's planning on proposing to his "girlfr ...more

Sweet love story, I like it :)
She makes him lose control but he can’t let her be the butterfly she is but first he has to admit that he fell in love.
I fell in love with this book!! The storyline was brilliant.
Rania Ghalli was a strong woman that knew what she needed to do and that was find a man that she could trust and not turn her into the Egyptian officials. She had been following a man that could help her but first she needed to make sure that he was safe. Once she was satisfied she was going to be sneaking on his yacht ...more

I have to say that I was really surprised by this story and I fell in love with the characters from the very beginning. I really thought that this was going to be your typical rich guy marries a woman or pretends to marry a woman for his benefit and that is all. I was totally wrong though. I love Rania's character and gradually fell in love with Demetri.

Given to me for an honest review. Demetri plans to shower and then check on why the very expensive custom built yacht stopped. Next thing he knew he has a female shower partner. She is Rania and she needs help. Now there are 2 men with automatic weapons in the bathroom with them. Rania yells at the men in Arabic. Demetri knows he has never seen Rania before even if she tells the men that they are married. As he gets buried deeper and deeper into Rania's story he wonders if he will still marry th

Demetri has three days to himself on his custom-built yacht. Then he would purpose to Christina, as she would do what he wants. Rania had tried to free her uncle from prison and ended up stowed away on Demetri's yacht, but two gun men were also there. Now she needed Demetri to go along that they were married.
This was an excellent story. I loved the ups and downs of the story. I loved for Rania to finally want to settle and to have found happiness. Demetri also went through ins and outs to find l ...more

This book was a pleasant change from what I usually read. I fell in love with Rania Ghalli from the beginning and enjoyed her witty, bold, take charge personality throughout the story. Her quest to free her beloved uncle from prison in Egypt was her main goal, but she never intended to develop feelings for stuffy, domineering, rigid Demetri Christodoulou.
This was a fun story set at a fast pace and I would recommend it to anyone!

I received this from Netgalley/ Entangled in exchange an honest review. In the beginning of this we have a yacht owner that finds an unwanted stowaway on his boat along with two armed men trying to kill a beautiful woman. This was a tale of a marriage of convenience. We have two people that need a cover story and a Greek millionaire that needs a wife in order to prove to his grandfather he is better than his birth. I loved the romance and story and just could not put it down.
A great sexy, fast read. I love a good marriage of convenience romance. Demetri and Rania were a sexy couple from the moment they met in the shower. The plan for them to be married worked for both of them until they each realized they wanted a real marriage but were afraid to tell the other. This book had a little bit of suspense in it which kept the book fun and interesting. I really enjoyed Demetri’s ma and yaiyai, those two ladies were a hoot.
Whimsical romance between a Greek millionaire and an Egyptian femme fatale. Also my second novel by Alexia Adams. Very exciting!

Demetri is just doing the do, taking a shower on his expensive cruise boat, when Rania crashes his cruise, running right into the shower with him.

Rania wants to get her uncle out of an Egyptian prison. She sneaks aboard Demetri 's yacht to get his help. They get married. I like their relationship. Rania is strong and likeable.

Rania made me angry when she attempted something which endangered her life, and her uncle's chances of escaping. I like Demetr's family.

3.75 for this sweet feelgood kinda read
This was a pleasant easy read that focused on the main characters rather than the storyline, but that wasn't a detriment. The way both the characters and their relationship developed felt genuine and left me with a warm smushy feeling, although the bit just before the very end did get a bit cheesy.
I think you'll definitely enjoy this read if you want an easy character driven story.
