A fake (and very convenient) coma, an arranged marriage, and a disappearing-finger trick kick off the second book in the Women of Greece series.Twenty-eight-year-old Kiki Andreou has lived her whole life in Agria, Greece, a seaside village where old-fashioned mothers arrange marriages, and gossip moves faster than light. Kiki doesn't want to get married, so she's itching to pop the champagne cork when her fiancé is a no-show at the church.Until tragedy strikes the town, and Kiki's brief splash of freedom is washed away by accusations of murder and infidelity. Soon life-long friendships are shattering, and more than one person wants Kiki to pay for a crime she didn't commit.She has no idea that an old plot twist is about to become new again, in the shape of a delicious man who is intimately-and uncomfortably-familiar with the disappearing-finger trick she showed him when she was thirteen. A man with one foot out of the country and the other in a military prison.Even if she manages to stay out of prison herself, Kiki is in very real danger of losing her heart to a man for whom staying in Greece is not an option.… (mehr)

This was a disappointing second novel in this series, Women of Greece. The main character is stood up at the alter & is soon accused of the groom’s murder by every town gossip. The groom’s aggrieved mother goes mad & believes he’s still alive. Meanwhile, American Leo—visiting his birthplace—gets thrown into his mandatory military service, which he is determined to go AWOL to get back to the USA before his mother passes of cancer. It’s supposed to be a laugh-a-minute series & the 1st book was. The topics in this one didn’t lend themselves to humor and it got embarrassingly ridiculous sometimes. It also felt like it was written by two different people. It was slow to start & some chapters were bizarre and I had no idea what they were supposed to be about. A few paragraphs here & there felt the same way. I was excited about the series after the 1st book. What a disappointment ( )

I love this series and what made this book even better was that I got it in print... So now it is sitting like an old friend on my shelf. :-)

I love Alex King because she creates amazing characters full of quirks and foibles. You feel as if you know them and experience all the laughs as well as all the trying times with them. I loved this book, with Kiki and Leo as well as the mothers and aunts with a few gypsies to make things interesting.

Really worth the read. My only complaint is that not all the books by Alex A. King is available in print. I hope that changes soon! ( )
