Christakis's Rebellious Wife: Christakis's Rebellious Wife / Dante's Unexpected Legacy (Mills & Boon Modern) (The Legacies of Powerful Men, Book 2) Paperback – 20 June 2014

Great book n had fun reading it

Book 2 of The Legacies of Powerful Men Trilogy (I haven't read the other two), Gizmo became my favorite character from the start. Well, even before I met him, Gizmo the mutt, though he should've got more space in the story.A story of Nik (Nikolos) Christakis and Betsy who are on the verge of a divorce, with Betsy, it seems, wanting to rip him off of all his billions. But a bout of makeup sex leads to pregnancy, which brings them together again. Nik had had an abusive childhood, and hence didn't want to have children, for which he even had vasectomy done. While after her parents' and grandmother's death at the age of eleven, Betsy had to go into foster care, which led her to not wanting babies. But her view changed when she found herself lonely, what with Nik always away on business trips.Nik is a complete take charge kind of a guy. He constantly steamrollers Betsy, even to the point of saying that "this is how she should feel"! But, he is out of his emotional depth, due to the abusive childhood he had suffered.What really shocked me was that in spite of knowing he couldn't have a baby, Nik kept Betsy on the hook for almost a year, while she had to go through the disappointment of not falling pregnant for such a long time. That was just outrageous! But, equally horrific was what Nik had to go through in his childhood, with no one to turn to. But, instead of bottling it up, he seeks help from a therapist, and finally opens up to Betsy, which was not at all easy.This book had the most wonderful of endings.

Really a good story.....

This is my second reading of this book. I liked it the first time but liked it even more the second time.It’s got all we want and expect from a Harlequin Presents and this author never fails to write imaginative, engaging stories that take you to another world for a little while.

good read

This is Betsy and Nik's story. Betsy is dyslexic. Her parents didn't want her so she went to live with her Grandmother. At age 11 her Grandmother died and she went into foster care. She was a waitress when she first met Nik. Nik is a spoiled playboy that always gets what he wants, or does he?Both married and are in the process of getting a divorce because Betsy wants to have children and Nik doesn't. This is their story of Love, hate and reawakened feelings. Lynne Graham does it again, and I loved this story.

ES L G PERO NO ES DE SUS MEJORES. AL FINAL TE DAS CUENTA QUE SI HUBIERAN SIDO SINCEROS TODO SE HUBIERA ARREGLADO ANTES. LIGERAMENTE ABURRIDO PQ NO TIENE TRAMA

Great read
