December 14, 2005: Eden Kouros was about to end her marriage to her husband, Aristide, when a serious car accident left him in a coma. She had become increasingly jealous of the time and attention Aristide had been devoting to his work at her expense, particularly the time he spent with his personal assistant, Kassandra. Eden still loves Aristide, but she had reached the end of her patience and told him so, right before the crash. But there's something she didn't tell Aristide - she's pregnant with their second child. ---- Aristide doesn't remember anything about Eden. Not their courtship, not their wedding, and not their marriage. He's been relying on information from his personal assistant, and Kassandra hasn't painted a very favorable picture of Eden. She has led him to believe that Eden trapped him into marriage when she became pregnant with their son, Theo. Aristide is a wealthy man, and he believes Eden only married him for his wealth and prestige. ---- In spite of everything, Eden truly loves Aristide and doesn't want to lose him. She plans to keep her new pregnancy a secret from him until things are resolved one way or another. He already believes she used a pregnancy to trap him into marriage and there's no way she'll let him accuse her of using her unborn child as an excuse to reconcile. If there is any hope of saving their marriage, it must be because Aristide loves and trusts Eden. Will Aristide ever remember why he fell in love with Eden in the first place? Will he be swayed by Kassandra's deceitful ways, or will he trust the evidence of his own eyes, mind and heart? ---- Aristide Kouros is gorgeous and sexy a wealthy Greek business tycoon who still holds love and family in high esteem. I hoped all of the obstacles in his path wouldn't prevent him from recognizing Eden's true nature and his feelings for her. I admired the way Eden refused to use her pregnancy to sway Aristide's decision. She stuck to her principles and refused to give in when Aristide wouldn't believe her complaints about Kassandra's devious behavior. I hoped Kassandra would get her due but most of all, I hoped Eden and Aristide would rediscover the love that drew them together in the first place. THE GREEK'S CHRISTMAS BABY is another first-rate story from Lucy Monroe!
