This romantic comedy about finding your place in the world "will make you laugh out loud and warm your heart from start to finish" (Books of All Kinds). Lydia knows first-hand that "having it all" isn't everything it's cracked up to be. As far as she's concerned, when it comes to job versus family, it's a case of one or the other. And whilst most women her age have spent years climbing the corporate ladder, she's made a career out of bagging her perfect man. Now, nearly thirty and still single, Lydia wonders if she'd made the right choice. Realising the time has come to take stock, she goes against her family's wishes and decides to travel, in the hope of finding a new direction. At least that's the plan. So when Sam comes along, she decides to tell a little white lie, re-inventing herself as a professional chef--not exactly the best new identity for a woman who can't cook. But the truth can't stay hidden for long and when her family show up unexpectedly things go from bad to worse . . . "The perfect read for anytime of the year . . . filled with fun and romance that readers will devour." --By the Letter Book Reviews "A light-hearted read with some truly wonderful, memorable characters." --The Writing Garnet Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

I found this to be a really entertaining and fun book, and I think it’s testament to the author that even though at times the main character frustrated me (as she was so particular about who ‘the one’ is and discounted potential dates for the smallest of reasons!), I was still rooting for her throughout the book.
As with the author’s first novel, I really liked the interplay between the characters, and actually laughed out loud at some of the dialogue, particularly between the main character and her family. I also laughed out loud at some of the mannerisms and idiosyncratic behaviour of the main character’s Greek hosts, although that was mainly because I recognised a lot of things from my own family…!
The overall feel of the book is very much playful and warm-hearted, which makes it easy and enjoyable to read. It’s definitely a book I’ll be recommending!
