Clare Connelly is the bestselling author of more than one hundred angsty, passionate romance novels. Having self-published her first book in 2014, by the end of that year, she was an Amazon All-Star in the US and UK and has since sold millions of copies of her books. She continues to self-publish and also writes her trademark romances for Harlequin and Tule.

Clare has lived and breathed romance for as long as she could remember. As a child, she adored fairy tales and Disney movies, as a teen it was all about romance novels: anything from Mills & Boon (which she consumed voraciously) to Jane Austen, Georgette Heyer and Jilly Cooper.

In 2023, alongside three other bestselling romance writers, Clare launched the How to Write Academy, a one-stop shop for aspiring genre writers.

Clare met her own real life hero at the tender age of eighteen. Clare lives near the sea in South Australia. When she isn't running kids to after school sports activities, listening to political podcasts or experimenting with French recipes, she's writing, thinking about writing, or wishing she were writing.

This was an enjoyable story. Thanos was a sad character until he met Alice. Alice was such a brave woman who loved deeply.

5.0 out of 5 stars A beautiful romantic and sensual story
Reviewed in the United States on November 19, 2019
I loved this story so much, Thanos is a man who has closed his heart to love and Alice has been hurt by men and is not very trusting of men, but when Thanos wants to add to his company the only way he can do it is if he has a wife and his PA Alice Smart could be that woman.

Alice Smart works hard as a temp but struggles financially caring for her mother, when the boss she has been working for, for months finally arrives at his New York office and discovers that she is in need of money he makes an offer too good to refuse to be his pretend wife, but on their wedding night that ends very passionately Alice is losing her heart to the man that will become her hero.

Thanos Stathikas was hurt as a child and now lives the life of a playboy although wealthy there is one company that he wants very badly and although he has sworn of marriage this will be the only way he will get the company back but spending time with Alice will melt the wall around his heart, he has never felt like this with a woman before, can it be love?

This book is a sensual and moving story one that won my heart from the start I loved both Thanos and Alice two people meant to be together to see their passion build and their hearts open was just beautiful and the ending OMG it was amazing, and the setting Greece I love Greek heroes. I loved this one and can highly recommend this one, MS Connelly you rock another fabulous story.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Comfortable, Familiar Arranged Marriage Romance Read
Reviewed in the United States on February 26, 2020
Alice is financially over her head. Her mother’s illness has eaten her money and her time. When bankruptcy shows its ugly head, she’s not sure what to do. Thankfully, her boss, Thanos Stathakis, has a solution. An arranged marriage – with the paperwork to end it prepared in advance. Her mother will be put in a wonderful nursing home, she’ll get money and a new apartment, and breathing space. Thanos just needs her to be his loving bride to prove to a business rival that he’s become family-oriented, so that he can buy back his grandfather’s company. Of course, even the most meticulously planned arranged marriages have trouble when reality hits.

Connelly pens a luxurious romance in Bride Behind the Billon-Dollar Veil. The trope is familiar, as is the boss/secretary angle, and there really isn’t anything new to the concept of the story. The characters are intriguing, and the romance itself proceeds nicely along with some really fun romantic indulgences on Thanos’ part. It’s fun to see the different locations that Connelly takes Thanos and Alice to as well. The end is very satisfying. This is a comfortable, familiar read for fans of Harlequin Presents.

5.0 out of 5 stars amazing love story
Reviewed in the United States on November 20, 2019
Alice Smart is taking care of her mom but struggling financially in her temp job. Thanos Stathakis is a super wealthy greek who she works for. Thanos wants to take over a business but is having a hard time because the owner feels he isn't the family man he wants to run his company, and is the playboy the press says he is. When he meets Alice and understands her difficulties he sees the opportunity joining forces would make. He asks her to be his temporary bride, to help him get what he wants and he will financially help her. Sounds like a great plan except Alice falls in love with her hero and he has no plan to ever love. At least that's what he tells himself, so why does she cause him to have feelings he never experienced before? Has he finally met the one that cold melt his cold heart? An incredibly sensual fantastic story. The second book in the Crazy rich Greek wedding's and another book for my keeper shelf.
