I received a complimentary copy of this book, and the following are my own genuine opinions.

This book is so cozy. It lets you imagine you've traveled to Greece, too! And it's such a feel-good story, even with the sad/anxious moments. 

Yes, this is a romance tale, but even more so it's a tale about a women learning to love herself first. Calla's character changes in such a beautiful way. As a woman who has done this before, everyone should try solo traveling at least once. Just like Calla, you'll learn something about yourself. 

Also, it's been forever since I've swooned over a male lead 😍 I love Dimitri! And Arthur - we need to protect our cinnamon roll grandpa at all costs. 

I've never read a book like this, where it was part love story and part travel guide. I confirmed with the author that the places and logistics for traveling to the islands featured in the novel come from her own experiences in the travel industry. Because of this, you never ever forget that this story is taking place in Greece. Her descriptions are honestly so beautiful. Once I told my mom about the book, her and I are inspired to go. I truly believe this book is going to influence tourism to the island of Symi. 

I am very much looking forward to any future work from Hannah Logan (sooner rather than later pleaseeeeee) 😉
