About this item

Let Top 5 bestselling author Kate Frost whisk you away to Kefalonia and Villa Aster where the sun shines and the Ionian sea glistens...

Can a Greek escape be the start of something special?

Xanthe Fox has it all: a famous, drop-dead gorgeous boyfriend, a dream career and bright future – until heartbreak sends her life into a tailspin.

So when Xanthe’s Greek godmother unexpectedly leaves her a villa on the sumptuous island of Kefalonia, Xanthe jumps at the chance to put her life in London on hold and escape to the island hideaway to rethink her future.

The break allows Xanthe the time to explore her passions, sift through her feelings and discover more about her estranged Greek family while renovating her godmother’s enchanting Villa Aster.

But not everyone is happy to see her. Unfazed by her hostile neighbours and after making a mortifying mistake with a sexy builder, Xanthe is equally charmed by Kefalonia and a handsome, brooding gardener.

Chasing dreams, taking chances and saying ‘yes’ has the potential to turn Xanthe’s life upside down, but will a summer escape allow her to sparkle once more?

From the Publisher

Kate Frost

Hello and welcome!

Thank you for taking an interest in my books. I write uplifting and heart-warming romantic escape novels set on beautiful islands within Europe.

Setting is integral to my stories, with each character having a reason to travel to their destination, whether Greece, Italy or elsewhere. I love writing about characters at a crossroads in their life, delving into their past and what makes them tick. Although romance is the driving force, I explore all kinds of relationships, from complex family ones to friendships old and new. My characters are often escaping from someone or something and there’s a sprinkling of new beginnings, second chances and self-discovery along the way.

Of course, there’s plenty of conflict and I don’t shy away from heartbreak or the realistic challenges of life, but there’s always a happy ending – after all, this is escapist, romantic fiction.

I hope you enjoy being whisked away.

Best wishes and happy reading,

Kate x

This is a sweet tale of a beautiful Greek Villa and several sets of stars crossed loves gun. I enjoyed the twists and turns as the story progressed. The descriptions of the scenery of Greece was wonderful for this armchair traveller! This is a great read with many interesting characters...enjoy as much as I did!

It took awhile tort into this book. Austin kept coming up and in my opinion she had many opportunities to put him aside. Even going to Greece didn’t help. He was there seemly making her do foolish things. I was glad that Jude was a fun loving free spirit. He caused the transition of the book. After Jude visited Greece, the book came alive. Thanks Jude.
