It was supposed to be a holiday of a lifetime.

Story
Her job as a counsellor has been as taxing as it has been rewarding, and she can’t wait for some downtime on the Greek island of Corfu with best-friend Gabby. But between Eve’s brother unexpectedly joining and Gabby’s job at the animal rescue centre keeping her busy, Eve might have to start mucking in. When Gianni arrives in the village of Episkepsi, it’s like a model has stepped straight off the pages of Vogue Italia. He may be super-sexy but there are obvious chips on those shoulders. But as Eve and Gianni get to know each other, an initial attraction starts to turn into something more.
