Thanks to Netgalley and Random House UK for providing this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Juno takes a break from her life and her husband in the UK to search for the father she never knew existed on an island in Greece. Her mother, who she has mostly been estranged from pleads with her not to go, but Juno is determined. Once she is there, she isn't able to find her father and later starts to realize there are some things in play that she didn't expect.

I usually really like this author and I was really excited about this setting in Greece, but the one fell a little flat for me. The story unfolded in a not terribly interesting way and the ultimate reveal wasn't very shocking or exciting. This was a bit of a miss, but I do like this author a lot and I look forward to her next novel.

Juno needs a break from her husband as they continue to struggle to conceive. She decides to head to Greece with some letters from her mother, to try to find her daughter. Her mother warns her to come home; she is in danger. Juno ends up with a job at the hotel of her birth family, trying to discover their secrets about her father. She meets people from her mother's past that also tell her she needs to leave. Juno's roommate is convinced this family had the last wedding planner killed and thinks they are in danger. Juno finally decides to leave when she finds herself in big trouble. Will she survive? The ending was not what I expected. I want to say that Juno is a little naive in a lot of ways, to the point where one wants to shake their head. But this book was good. Lots of twists and suspense. Def recommended!
