The Island of Dreams by Helen McGinn

-
Martha is the youngest daughter, coming home for her sister's wedding. She doesn't like her fiance one bit but decides not to say anything. Then he hits on her and tries to convince her sister that it was all her.

The wedding gets canceled and they turn it into a big party instead. Her sister convinces her to go on what was supposed to be her honeymoon alone, as a chance to do something new and get out of the rut she has been in ever since she canceled her wedding years before.

The trip doesn't start all that well at first, but soon the Greek island starts to work its magic on her, and she falls for it and the single father living there. The life there is much different from what she has been living and the change doesn't feel so bad at all. She has her freedom, has fun, and learns to enjoy her life again.

It's a lovely story of getting a fresh start and learning to live again. I liked the story, but for some reason couldn't get into it.

Callan is a former Special Forces marine.  He suffers from PTSD and spends most of his time silently helping people around him and avoiding life in general. He is antisocial and a bit of a grump, happy with a very secluded life in his little bubble. That all changes when he gets a new neighbour. Meridian is bubbly, full of life and not afraid to put herself out there. Despite the rocky start, there is undeniable chemistry between them. And although he tries his best to stay away from her, she slowly makes her way into his heart. But romance isn't all that easy. He is plagued by PTSD and flashbacks and refuses to open up. But Meridian isn't backing down. Losing My Breath is a military romance, full of funny and romantic moments and a whole lot of spice. It also shows how it is to live with PTSD and how it affects the person's daily life, as well as those who love them. book info published November 8, 2023 number of pages 220 GoodReads Amazon giveaway a Rafflecopter giveaway

Naomi and Luca grew up on opposite sides of the country. In the 5th grade, they became pen pals for a school assignment and never stopped writing to each other, until 2 years ago, when the letters stopped. But the letters weren't sweet or heartfelt, they were filled with hate and mean words, and they always tried to outdo each other in their insults. Slowly, over time, underneath all those jabs, a friendship developed. Naomi works at the TV station as a weathergirl. And then she received a new letter at work, from Luca, but without his new address. She and her friend go on a whole adventure to find him, flying across the country, and finding more about his life along the way. At the same time, the cute neighbour asks her out and they start to date. There is this insane chemistry between them, but her heart is torn between two guys. It's so so good! I couldn't put it down. It's funny, sweet and heartfelt all at the same time... and there are many steamy scenes too! :) Hi
