Well hello there! Thank you for dropping by. Today I am taking part in the blog tour for Not My Greek Wedding by Sue Roberts. I was sent a copy by the lovely people at Bookouture to read and review – thank you Sarah!
Now, I am usually a reader of the slightly more sinister world of crime and murder but I have so many happy memories of holidays in Greece that I was tempted by this one. It was sweet, a proper feel good piece of romantic fiction. For me, it was the descriptions of sunny days on the beautiful island of Santorini that had a hold on me though.
Book Description
She might not be the bride, but could this wedding be the start of her perfect future?
Mia is reeling from a breakup with her fiancé. And now her best friend Tasha is getting married on the beautiful Greek island of Santorini – where Mia once planned on having her own wedding.
Arriving at the resort, Mia’s breath catches at the sight of the sun-soaked terrace and vases overflowing with pink and white blooms. And with guests like local hunk, Christos, walking around like statues of Greek gods come to life, there’s even more to celebrate… so Mia promises to put her own heartache aside and make sure everything is perfect for Tasha – especially as she’s the Maid of Honour!
But with embarrassing speeches, champagne corks popping everywhere, and guests getting caught up in the energetic Greek dancing, there are too many problems to tackle alone. If she opens her heart, can Mia and Christos make sure the day runs smoothly, and could she even start her own new love story in Greece?
This absolutely gorgeous and unputdownable beach read is perfect for fans of Kate Frost, Mandy Baggot and Holly Martin. Pack your bags and get ready to be swept away to the stunning beaches of Greece!
Did I enjoy it?
It took me a little while to relax into this. The ‘influencer’ aspect of the story I found a little annoying for a while and watching Mia constantly having to photograph and upload in her quest for more followers was not something that I found endearing. But, I soon got to see that the author was using that as a way to show how Mia needed to find herself whilst she was away on her Greek getaway and that the possibility of romance was a bonus rather than a focus. Not My Greek Wedding by Sue Roberts is romantic and light, a perfect poolside read and had some very likeable characters. The sunshine and island do steal the show somewhat and most definitely made me yearn to return again (it’s been a long time).
About the author
Sue Roberts lives in Lancashire with her long term partner Derek and has had a lifelong love of writing, encouraged by winning a school writing competition at the age of 11.
She always assumed that ‘one day’ she would write a book, always having a busy household and a job, the idea remained firmly on the back burner but never forgotten.
The inspiration for her first novel came to her on a holiday to a Greek village. Her daughters had left home and suddenly the time had come to write that book!
