I first read the Ruthless Greek's Return (Mills & Boon Modern) by Sharon Kendrick on 2015 and really enjoyed it. Mills and Boon have been revamped with new covers and a new imprint (Dare) for 2018 and as I am a #MillandBoonInsider I was given the chance to review it.

Cover wise the front picture and lettering are very contemporary, eye catching and moody. The old front cover can still be seen on Amazon and certainly the new design which is going to be used for all Modern books is more cohesive and not as dated as the flowery fonts used in the old design whilst the picture is more atmospheric and interesting than the previous one.

When Jessica Cartwright had first known Luke Sarantos eight years ago when he had been a bodyguard to a Russian billionaire , she had been an up and coming tennis player. They had an affair, her father for nod out. Luke asked Jessica to marry him but she declined. Now the table have turned. Luke is a billionaire with accompanying bodyguards whilst she has had an accident that ended her tennis career and is working as the face of Lulu, the luxury jewellery company that he has just purchased. She is desperate to keep her job as she is financially supporting her half sister, Hannah and after paying off her father's debts they are living in a cottage on Cornwall.

This is a novel that focuses on the potential for a second chance for love and romance. The road is not always smooth, lots of bumps and fall out along the way, but Sharon, as always, develops her characters so they almost seem believable as they deal with their issues, obstacles and lack of trust. Their sexual chemistry and attraction almost bounces off the pages!

I received this book via Netgalley and Mills and Boon in exchange for an honest review, I am a #MillsandBooninsider #netgalley #TheRuthlessGreeksReturn .

Timeless… Classic…, 4 Stars 🌟
In celebration of Ms Kendrick's 100th book, her back collection is being digitally released for her existing and new fans to enjoy. In honour of this incredible milestone I've been revisiting my favourite books of Ms Kendrick's (I currently have eight books on my ereader to choose from) starting with The Ruthless Greek's Return.
The story of Loukas Sarantos, a former bodyguard who becomes a ruthless but very successful businessman that uses his latest acquisition to bring Jessica Cartwright back into his life. Loukas see's this as his chance to revenge the past and show Jessica just how far he has come, after she turned down his marriage proposal and walked away from him years ago. What Loukas doesn't allow for is how strong the attraction between them still is; for Jessica there has only ever been Loukas but Jessica has been hurt and let down by those closest to her and doesn't trust his motives (with good reason). Can Jessica find the courage to be honest with herself and Loukas so they finally reconcile their past to live HEA!
Ms Kendrick is always a must read for me with engaging characters that you quickly become emotionally invested and you return to again and again, timeless!
Fyi I received my copy from Netgalley and Mills and Boon via Mills and Boon Insiders, but this does not influence my opinions as all opinions are my own.
