The Island of Dreams by Helen McGinn was my first read from this author and it will certainly not be the last. If you are looking for a heartwarming story to help you escape the winter doldrums, then look no further.

Martha has called off her engagement and is feeling a little lost as her sister Iris prepares for her own upcoming nuptials. But when a surprise turn of events has her jetting off to Greece alone, it is just the remedy her lost heart needs, and she finds solace and acceptance in the last place she ever expected.

I love a story set in an exotic locale, and Paxos serves as the most idyllic backdrop to one woman's journey of starting over. Recommended

Many thanks to NetGalley and Boldwood Books for an ARC.
