Grab a cocktail, sit back, relax and Escape to the Islands... Life is sweet for Joanna Nelson until the day she gets a call from a lawyer in Greece that knocks her for six. Her father, whom Joanna has never met, has died. Her mum was always reticent to discuss her brief holiday romance many years before on a tiny Greek Island called Skiathos, and all her life Joanna’s tried to fill in the blanks. It seems her dad ran a small hotel on the island, and according to the lawyer, has left the property to her. Her boyfriend immediately advises Joanna to sell the place but it seems things aren't so simple. The persuasive lawyer tells her that though now worn and run-down, the hotel is the heart and soul of a small seaside community in Skiathos and it would break her father's heart to see it sold. Could Joanna perhaps come and see for herself? Intrigued by the idea of visiting the Greek island and discovering more about her heritage and her parents’ romance, Joanna agrees to visit Skiathos in early spring. Upon arrival she is very quickly seduced by the soft sand, blue skies and tumbling bougainvillaea, as well as the welcoming Greek community, who are only too happy to impart information about the father she never knew, teach her all about their beloved island and most importantly, reveal the truth about her parents' romance. And all too soon, Joanna begins to wonder if her mother made a huge mistake in leaving beautiful Skiathos so many years before… Escape to the Islands SPRING IN SKIATHOS SUMMER IN SANTORINI AUTUMN IN CRETE WINTER IN RHODES less

His speciality is Mediterranean classics with a modern twist, and his food has spawned a TV series as well as multiple bestselling cookbooks.

Her first task - a jaunt to the beautiful island of Crete to figure out the secret behind Thasos, a beloved and hugely successful family-run restaurant that has been in operation for over thirty years. Its enviable location, right on the edge of the crystal clear Aegean waters, cheery atmosphere and delicious food has made Thasos a tourist destination in its own right. Ellie is excited about spending two weeks in such an idyllic location and she arranges to travel to Crete in early Autumn to check out the restaurant in quieter surrounds. She is very quickly captivated by not only the island, but the welcoming family who run the restaurant, in particular handsome manager, Chris. But when she discovers that her new boss actually intends to send Thasos out of business, she is shocked. Can Ellie truly be the architect of the restaurant’s downfall?
