What is A Place In Greece all about?
I've had a series of summer romance books in my head for a while now and this is the first instalment. It is set on the beautiful island of Crete in Greece, where the Mediterranean shimmers and love is in the air. It can be read as a one-off standalone but if you want to find out what happens next, there will be some follow-up books.
Here's the story...
Ever wanted to leave it all behind, buy a place in Greece and start a new life? Escape to the sun-drenched shores of Crete in this heartwarming tale of new beginnings, self-discovery, and unexpected love.
After a string of embarrassing mishaps and a devastating loss, Gabrielle impulsively buys a dilapidated kafenion in a small Cretan village. Armed with nothing but determination and her grandmother's inheritance, Gabby jets off to Greece, hoping for a fresh start.
But living in Koustafali is nothing like she imagined. The locals are wary, the charming kafenion is crumbling, and Gabby's in over her head. With no experience, she relies on the reluctant help of the moody but handsome Georgios Kanalis – the former owner of the kafenion.
Just as sparks begin to fly, family secrets threaten to shatter her Greek dream. Can she find the strength to fight for the future she craves?
A Place in Greece is a must-read for fans of Mamma Mia, Under a Tuscan Sun, and anyone who's ever dreamed of starting over in a beautiful foreign land.

Would you do it?
Have you ever wanted to do what Gabby does, buy a house abroad, renovate it and start a new life somewhere where the sun shines and the sea is blue?
Do you spend your time watching renovation TV shows like Alan & Amanda's Italian/Spanish Job or A New Life in the Sun? Do you wonder if you will ever do it, or are interested in people who do?
Do you like Contemporary Romances full of fun, where things go wrong but end up being so right?
If you're still reading, then A Place in Greece is the book for you. It's the perfect summer read to take away on holiday with you or to read at home and escape to the warm shores of Greece.
Available in Kindle Unlimited, or to buy in ebook, paperback or hardback on Amazon.
Love for A Place in Greece
"Beautifully written, couldn’t put this book down, perfect for losing yourself in another place, looking forward to the next one. A definite must buy."
"Loved this book! A perfect holiday, beach read. Great escapism, living out two day dreams - moving to a Greek island and doing up an old house! Beautifully written - I felt like I knew the characters. Look forward to the next book in the series!"
"Read a lot of Greek romance when I holiday in Crete each year.
This one had one of the best contexts and geography of Crete, together with a realistic story, that did make me howl at times!
Main character very relatable.

Sindy Loves Getting Away
**SORRY THIS PROMOTION HAS NOW ENDED**
Being a child of the 70's and 80's I was brought up on a diet of Smash, Space Hoppers and Sindy Dolls. So when my good friend Liz from @Sindylovesstyle asked if I would like to join her for a fun promotion of my book Getting Away, I jumped at the chance!
SindyLovesStyle is a fun Instagram page which shows Sindy at her fabulous best taking part in everyday events such as shopping, camping and even yoga! Liz has a great eye for creating dioramas in Sindy size and even recreates scenes from famous movies. Check out this one from Thelma & Louise.
For this month's challenge in the Sindy Instagram community (yes there really is one), the theme is 'Occupations'. For 'A' Liz has decided on 'Author' and has suggested we (and by that I mean she with a little bit of assistance from me), create a scene with "Sindy Amelia", penning her novel, Getting Away.
For 'B' we will see a Bookshop Owner selling copies of Getting Away as Amelia comes in for a book signing. Of course, there will be masses of other Sindys queuing around the block to get their hands on a copy. Genius, eh?
For my part of the bargain, and to add even more fun to the proceedings we've decided to do a real-life GIVEAWAY of a personalised signed copy of the full-sized Getting Away paperback and, get this, one of the teeny-weeny Amelia Sindy books we are using in the promo! (sorry they don't have separate pages, they are just for props!).
Check out Amelia Sindy tapping away on her laptop, creating her next masterpiece. I do most of my writing early in the morning before work so Amelia Sindy is dressed in her fancy silk pyjamas. I only wish I looked half as glamorous as that when I'm writing on my sofa. And that writing bureau is every author's dream!
All you need to do to enter the prize-draw is follow the steps below:
@sindylovesstyle on Instagram and fill in your email details on my home page of this website, easy peasy, squeezy cheesy.
If you were, or are still, a fan of all things Sindy, or like me, are fascinated to view the world in miniature, head on over to @Sindylovesstyle and check out her page. I guarantee it will make you smile.
Move over Barbie, there's a new (old) chick in town and she's a fabulous author!!
