‘Please join us and celebrate the wedding of Ollie & Alec.

August 31st 2026.

Athens, Greece.

Kindly RSVP by August 1st 2025 to confirm your attendance.’

Will is not ready for this. How can Ollie be moving on from him so quickly? And GREECE?! The exact location that he and Ollie dreamed about getting married in one day… It’s been three years since Ollie and Will had spoken, their relationship crumbling after Ollie had proposed and Will had said ‘no’, but now, Will realises he might have made the biggest mistake of his life.

There is only one option.

With his mind made up, Will packs his bags and heads to Athens. He has 25 days until Ollie and Alec get married, 25 days to complete his mission to declare his love for Ollie, win him back and, of course, stop the wedding. The last person Will expects to run into on his first day in Athens is his childhood friend, Sam. But Sam isn’t the lanky little boy clutching his Pokemon cards anymore, Sam is now an impossibly handsome grown-up (although, still secretly clutching his Pokemon cards).

Surrounded by the beauty and history of Athens, Will has 25 days to work out what it is he really wants.

Tropes:

• Destination
• Second Chance
• Forced Proximity
