Description
The dream holiday just got complicated . . .
On the sun-drenched island of Kefalonia, the new arrivals at The Ionian Escape hotel are all hoping for a holiday from everyday life. But some of them are bringing quite a lot of baggage . . .
Disgraced TV star Miranda Vallance has left home amidst a media storm, not to mention an explosive family fall-out. Is it possible for her to make amends - or is she about to find herself in even deeper trouble?
Eighty-two-year-old Evelyn Chambers has always loved the Greek islands - but this time she's here to carry out a very special promise to the love of her life. If she can steel herself to go through with it . . .
And when celebrity chef Frank Neale checks in, swiftly followed by a breaking scandal, rumours swirl around the hotel. But is it his wife, Leonora, who has more of a reason to escape to Greece? As summer draws to a close, it seems there are surprises in store for every character - including the hard-working hotel staff too.
The Island Getaway is a big-hearted novel from the queen of bestselling fiction, celebrating second chances, true love and the life-affirming joy of unlikely friendships.
