Sent to Greece on a mission of mercy to meet her estranged grandfather, Roxy uncovers the truth about her family—and must unravel the longtime consequences of a tragic love story.

Reviews

“The setting for this book is electric, full of colour, sweet smells, heat and dizzying heights. The themes of reuniting family, carrying on family traditions, creating another generation and holding in secrets spring out at the reader, provoking not only laughter but also deep thought and sighs of contentment.” CM Magazine

"Interspersed throughout this charming story are little nuggets of wisdom written in a thoughtful, impressionable, and memorable manner...Reece has crafted a coming of age tale which should be sad and painful but instead is spirited. Recommended." Library Media Connection
