"An excellent debut novel -- well paced, sparkling dialogue."

Savannah Kiriakis has been living in Atlanta, Georgia, with her two daughters since her Greek husband's death a year ago. She has been able to live quite well because of a monthly allowance from her husband's family--from whom she is estranged. Now Dion's cousin wants to cut off the allowance. Savannah needs the funds because she uses them to take care of her aunt Beatrice who is dying.

Leiandros Kiriakis, Savannah's late husband's cousin, controls the Kiriakis family money. He blames Savannah for not allowing his family to see Dion's children. He, like the other members of his family, believe Savannah cheated on Dion and gave birth to another man's child. Leiandros wants revenge and has threatened to stop her monthly allowance if she does not come to Greece with the children immediately.

When Savannah arrives in Greece she finds that nothing has changed; Dion's family still hates her and blames her for everything that went wrong in his life. Leiandros finds himself attracted to her in a way he cannot explain or deny. Will he be loyal to his cousin's memory? Can he carry out his plans of revenge? Or will he throw caution to the wind and claim the woman he is falling in love with?

THE GREEK TYCOON'S ULTIMATUM is a debut novel for Lucy Monroe--and a good one at that. She has captured all of the elements of a good romance as well as a good novel. Her characters are well developed, the plot is well paced, and the dialogue sparkles. Whoever reads this novel will look forward to Ms. Monroe's future works.
