Two weeks. One unforgettable trip to Corfu. A chance to change her life.
Becky Rose has just landed her dream job house-sitting at a
top-end villa on the island of Corfu. What could be better than two weeks
laying by an infinity pool overlooking the gorgeous Ionian waters while mending
her broken heart.
Elias Mardas is travelling back to Corfu on business whilst
dealing with his own personal demons. Late arriving in Athens, Becky and Elias
have to spend a night in the Greek capital. When they have to emergency land in
Kefalonia, Becky's got to decide whether to suck up the adventure and this
gorgeous companion she seems to have been thrown together with or panic about
when she's going to arrive at Corfu...
Finally
reaching the beautiful island, Becky is happy to put Elias behind her and get
on with her adventure. Until he turns up at the villa...
My Review:
I am honoured to be kicking off the blog tour for this book, especially on publication day! I am a massive fan of Mandy’s work, a Corfu wannabe (I will get there one day!!) and an absolute lover of the wonderful scenes and characters created.
So, My Greek Island Summer - what a gorgeous book. Mandy never fails to deliver especially where Corfu is concerned. With its gorgeous locations described in dreamy detail, I felt like I was right there with Elias, Becky and Petra. What an absolute adventure they had before they even reached their destination. I wanted to pack my case and head off and see these places myself. With current circumstances it is the perfect way to escape, a read that can transport you away from all the anxieties and worries we find ourselves living through.
A classic Mandy Baggot book with much talk of wonderful sounding foods, so well described my mouth was watering! Whether it was Becky thinking about sandwiches or Eleni preparing food, I was hungry throughout.
Becky lands a great job house sitting in Corfu. She wants to relax, enjoy some luxury, swim and hit the beach for two weeks. She meets Elias and neither are quite as honest as they should be; if only they had the opportunity to get to know each other some more.
I love the characters, a variety of people who are funny or stubborn, selfish or immature, carefree and stressed. All looking at making more of themselves, being happy or needing to see ways to change. So much can happen when people learn to accept the past and look forwards.
A read that transports you to another place, with people you’d love as friends. I couldn’t put this one down! You can feel the sun on your skin, hear the noise of island life; Mandy’s love for this special place shines through and just makes this an absolute smash.
I cannot recommend highly enough – enjoy!
