Sunshine, soft white sand and a sizzling hot millionaire – you don’t get trouble in paradise, right?
Imogen Charlton is sorted. Dead-beat husband? History. Dream job? Application sent. But then her impulsive brother, Harry, spends every last penny on a Greek restaurant in Corfu, and is determined to run it himself. It’s up to Imogen to bring him to his senses.
When sexy millionaire Panos Dimitriou offers to buy back his family taverna, Imogen wonders if all her prayers have been answered (and all her fantasies about to come true). But Harry won’t budge, and his enthusiasm is infectious.
Bright pink bougainvillea tumbling over whitewashed walls, endless blue skies, the sparkling Mediterranean; it’s hard not to fall for Corfu. And that’s not all Imogen is falling for…
As the sparks of passion fly between Imogen and Panos, is Imogen having second thoughts on selling the restaurant? And will she have to choose between love and a new dream?
Okay, I am trying to write a decent book review without gushing here.
‘Those Summer Nights’ is incredible. My second read by Mandy Baggot and it keeps getting better. I truly enjoyed it from beginning till the end.
Panos and Imogen are wonderful leads. They are realistic like every other character in the book. The sister-brother relation between Imogen and Harry is just so real which I could relate to and Elpida is a hilarious and cunning yiayia . The descriptions are written so well, it feels like you’re really there experiencing everything- Greece, the beach, the community market, the festival, the sizzle between Panos and Imogen, the Greek food. I can go on and on.
It definitely wanted me to go to Corfu.
Let’s not forget the cover. It’s so pretty!
I had been picturing David Gandy as Panos and when Mandy, herself does that TWICE, I couldn’t be happier.
I fell in love with everything in this book. The plot is engaging and lovely. The only thing I was a little disappointed about was the epilogue. I wanted a little more of Imogen and Panos in the epilogue.
This book is going to leave you smiling, laughing and even crying.
I would recommend this to anyone wanting a great summer read. You do not have to be laying on the beach or by the pool. ‘Those Summer Nights’ will make you happy.
4 STARS!
