Package Deal by Tasha Harrison

One bunch of Brits...one mountain of excess baggage

At first glance, it seems to Mia that the occupants of the neighbouring apartments are a typical bunch of Brits abroad – loud, embarrassing, to be avoided. But then she hadn’t come to socialise with other holidaymakers...

...Mia had come to Kefalonia to pay someone a surprise visit.

Meanwhile, her neighbours, young lovers Jo and Nathan are looking forward to two weeks of sun, sea and sex, while bosom buddies Caz and Babs are leaving the kids behind to celebrate their divorces over as many ouzos as they can pack into a fortnight. Frank and Margaret are making one last attempt to salvage their forty-year marriage, while gay meditation guru Shantee has come to find serenity in solitude. Lads-on-the-loose Craig and Steve are on a mission to bed as many babes as possible, while a miserable Simon is on his honeymoon – without his bride.

And then there’s local heartthrob Dimitri, who will do whatever it takes to escape the very same paradise his guests have been dreaming of.

They each have a suitcase full of expectations, but after two weeks together, no one is who they first seemed to be, and no one’s holiday turns out quite how they imagined...

This book is great!! I was hooked and couldn't put it down. I just wish it could have been longer so I could have enjoyed it for my entire 2 week holiday! Can't wait to read more from this new author.

Excellent, funny and intelligent read. The characters that you first think are the usual stereotypes develop in unexpected and personal ways that draw you effortlessly through the book.
