Getting Away by Amelia Short – book cover
Getting Away
An accidental kidnapping results in unexpected adventure for our girl Nancy, who not only finds her true self, she also finds true love...
★★★★★
A great story and a twisted tale of love, kidnapping, fear and deception. The author keeps you wanting to turn the pages and find out how it all ends. You can just close your eyes and picture being right there with the characters. Great book that will make you smile from start to finish.

What a great first book by Amelia Short. Hope there will be more. Great story, kept me turning the pages wanting to know what happens next. I wanted it to go on. Looking forward to the sequel! Here's hoping.

A Place in Greece
Gabrielle buys a ramshackle property in Greece and ends up with a new life and maybe a new love...

This one had one of the best context and geography of Crete together with a realistic story, that did make me howl at times!

★★★★★
Pure escapism, totally predictable but a lovely story to read in a miserable dark winter. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it.

I’ve loved reading these 2 books. I am glad there will be more to follow and I look forward to reading them too. I love Greece but not returning till next year so it’s lovely to read these at home in Cornwall taking me back there (in my head ?) until then.

I read the 1st book in this series and stumbled over the 2nd book. It didn’t disappoint and it was great to ‘catch up’ with old friends. Can’t wait for book 3 of the series

Who on Earth is Amelia Short?

Greetings!

Amelia ShortMy name is Amelia Short, and I am a contemporary romance novelist. I like to write about romantic adventures set in beautiful, sunny places. Here is a little bit about me.

I am lucky enough to live by the seaside in beautiful Devon, England, with my scrumptious husband, where I like to take inspiration from the rolling waves and fresh sea air. It’s the perfect place for long walks where I can think through my plot lines or listen to podcasts and audiobooks.

I love to travel and explore as often as my work and finances will allow. I like nothing more than to delve into a good holiday read (even before the flight has taken off!) and hope to produce books that will give my readers the same enjoyment.

I love to watch TV programs about buying properties abroad, and my favourites are A Place in the Sun, and the Amanda & Alan series of renovations - the Italian Jobs, Spanish Job and of course their latest, the Greek Job, set in wonderful Corfu.

As a self-published author, I seem to be on a constant learning curve of writing craft, marketing and general self-publishy stuff, and there is a lot to learn! I currently have three books published, the first Getting Away, is a stand-alone, while the second, A Place in Greece, can be read as a stand-alone, but also as a first in series. Book two in the series, My New Greek Life, is out now and will be followed by the rest of the series as soon as I can. If you want more information about these books, check out the My Books page.

If you would like to follow my journey, find out what I've been working on and maybe a bit more about me, sign up for my monthly newsletter on the Home page. You'll even get access to a Free short story, so you can try before you buy!
