It was supposed to
be a holiday of a lifetime…
But when Jen’s boyfriend David suddenly cancels
their romantic Paris trip, needing to urgently travel to Athens for work, it’s
best friend Bonnie who suggests they surprise him.
Having already booked the time off from her events
company – Christmas Every Day – Jen decides an impromptu and romantic gesture
might be just what their relationship needs?
Arriving in Greece and finding David is not there,
Jen has a lot of questions. And when she gets her answers she has a choice –
should she go home or should she stay a while?
With the help of Astro, the handsome yet
Christmas-hating waiter from the local bar, she sets about a little Greek
Christmas research. But what starts as a ‘business trip’ soon turns into
something more…

Do I look forward to Mandy Baggot’s ‘festive’ books? You bet
I do. Do I love when Mandy whisks us away to glorious locations? Always. Have I
loved the combination of both? ABSOLUTELY!!
After some of my favourite festive reads over the years, In
the Greek Midwinter is yet another gem that left me ready for the season ahead.
It is heartwarming and romantic but at it’s core it’s about people allowing
themselves to believe – whether that’s in other people or a little bit festive
magic. It’s a story of two people who both had difficult starts in life, coming
together and discovering they have so much more in common than they realised.
Jen is a festive fanatic, the season reminds her of the
moments in life she can think of fondly. She doesn’t let people in, not easily
and never completely. She can put hurt behind her – or so she thinks. When a
romantic break doesn’t go as planned, a change of scene leads to some life
changing discoveries.
Astro cannot stand the season and rallies against his uncles
plans to decorate everything. The season intensifies a pain he cannot move on
from. His hidden passion is a way for him to unleash his feelings, even if it
risks getting in trouble.
When their worlds collide, can they find a way to get along
with each feeling so strongly. I loved the dynamic between these two
characters, seeing how their relationship developed over the course of the
book.
A whole cast of supporting characters make this book so
entertaining and really funny. I loved Natalia – Jen’s ‘colleague’ from the
Ukraine who looks after her business whilst Jen is in Greece. She is very “gangster-
esque” but in a humorous way, someone to keep onside. Achilles is a brilliant character,
his enthusiasm for all things jumps off the page.
A great book to cosy up with this festive season, let the
snow fall (no matter where you may be!) and enjoy the read. Another great story
from Mandy Baggot, festive and in Greece; what a fab combination.
