Can a tragic heartbreak give way to a hopeful future?
When thirty-two-year-old Catelyn’s husband dies suddenly, she descends into a spiral of grief, until an unexpected plane ticket forces her out of the dark place she has found herself in. As she is catapulted into the bright Greek sunlight, she remembers a promise her late husband made: ‘If I die, I’ll send you someone to love’.
Catelyn imagines she’ll find peace and serenity amidst the whitewashed Greek tavernas of Zante and the sparkling blue sea. But when a handsome, mysterious stranger crosses her path, she gets more than she’d bargained for. Taken with the island’s charm – and her intriguing new admirer – Catelyn wonders: could her husband’s promise be coming true?
Could a summer in Greece be the fresh start she needs? Or might she even learn to laugh and love again?
A heartwarming tale of love and hope that will whisk you away to Zante… Perfect for fans of Carol Kirkwood, Karen Swan and Kate Frost.
A woman suffering after the loss of her husband gets a second chance in a beautifully written contemporary romance.
Author Carol Mason introduces Catelyn in Beneath Greek Skies. Dating again after her husband’s death proves to be a challenge. However, a trip to Greece opens the door to new possibilities.
While the story primarily focuses on how Catelyn processes grief, the author also highlights the mother/daughter relationship. Her adventurous mother provides plenty of humorous conversation as the two both consider potential suitors.
What makes the story memorable is the first-person narrative, which is told from Catelyn’s perspective. Her struggle to start fresh is relatable, especially as she flashes back to her favorite memories.
Beneath Greek Skies offers a heartwarming romance full of hope and second chances.
