Synopsis


Small, shy, safe. That’s how Becky lives ever since her last romantic calamity landed her in hospital. Her comfort zone is as confining as her tiny bank balance, and fiercely guarded by her totally over-the-top mum. But the news that her ex is back sniffing round is the final straw. In a very un-Becky move, she packs her bags for the Greek island of Skiathos. Maybe the setting of her favourite ABBA movie will be just the break from reality Becky needs… Stepping aboard the Mamma Mia! boat tour, Becky leaves her fear in the port as she sings… out loud… in public, and cries Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! to everything the Greek life has to offer. She befriends locals young, old, and absolutely perfect (hello, sizzling hot restaurant-owner Kyros!), dines on freshly baked bread drizzled in golden olive oil on a starlit date, and walks barefoot along silky sandy beaches. When Kyros asks her to stay longer, Becky is stunned. Could she really create a new life for herself here, and trust her heart with this smooth-talking charmer? But just as she’s thinking about putting down roots, her troublesome ex makes a dramatic return, begging for her back. Will she go back to playing it safe, or will she take a chance on Greece and embrace her true dancing queen?


My Review


This was a brilliant story that I thoroughly enjoyed reading. It was one of them feel-good reads that are easy to get into and follow. I loved the characters as grey were varied, some quirky, and easy to connect with. It will definitely make a fantastic holiday/beach read. Especially if you can't travel to Greece this year. It was difficult to put down. So I didn't. I just read it all in one go, and it was so satisfying. I loved the way it contained just enough cheesiness to be a fun read.

So much praise goes out to the author and publishers for creating this great, slow burning romance novel. I can't wait to read more from this wonderful author.
