Today I am excited to share with you my review of this wonderful, sunshine filled new release from Mandy Baggot. Thank you to Aria fiction for inviting me to join the tour, and for my copy of the ebook in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.
Book Description
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 was so excited to be given the opportunity to read and review this brilliant new release from Mandy Baggot, and I could not wait to jump in and escape to the sunshine of Greece.
Becky Rose is working with her sister in the sandwich shop that her sister Megan owns. Becky is an expert at making flavours to suit each of their customers. This is something that is kept hidden from Megan, alongside all of the standard fillings that Megan decides the business needs.
Becky is finding her work is no longer fulfilling her, she is also finding it increasingly difficult to work for her sister and that two of them star to clash over a potential job. Becky decides she needs a break and when the opportunity to spend two weeks house sitting in a luxurious villa in Corfu she jumps on it and soon finds herself heading to the airport excited for her adventure in the sunshine ahead of her.
Becky is seated on the plane and gets talking to the handsome passenger beside her. She finds out that his name is Elias. She also gets chatting to another passenger Petra.
It soon becomes apparent when the plane lands that Becky has missed her connecting fight to Corfu and will have to spend the night in the city of Athens. This is where Becky is pleased she chatted to Elias on the plane as he decides to show Becky the sights of Athens this is also with Petra in tow.
The next morning the group of three are excited to be finally heading to their destination of Corfu when bad weather strikes and they find themselves landing in Kefalonia instead. This means for Becky another night in the company of the handsome Elias.
This trip for Becky is turning out to be more of an adventure than she first planned.
The next day they all finally arrive in Corfu and Becky simply cannot wait to get to the villa and begin to unwind and relax.
Things still don't go to plan when Becky ends up with some company, and things become even more complicated when Elias turns up at the Villa too.
With secrets being kept by them all and adventures in the sunshine ahead of her this is definitely a summer holiday that Becky will never forget.
I absolutely adored this adventure from Mandy Baggot and did not want to put it down.
I love the writing style of these books. Mandy has a way of setting the scene so well you can almost feel the sunshine coming off of the pages.
I enjoyed getting to know Becky. Things have happened to Becky in the past that have made her lose confidence in herself but a summer adventure in Corfu seems to help her become more of herself again and realise how much she has to offer working with her sister.
Elias is a fantastic character to go alongside Becky. He also has been hurt in the past and the baggage of this is still surrounding him. You do get a good insight into his life as some of the book is told from his perspective.
There is a range of supporting and sometimes quirky characters within the story who all help both Becky and Elias on their way often with some funny results.
This is Mandy Baggot's 20th book release and having read all off them I really do feel that this is her best yet.
This is the perfect way to escape from the world right now so grab your copy and have your own Greek adventure today.
