Friday, August 21, 2015


Each book in this series really can be read as a stand alone--and each of them are fantastic reads!! This one has lots of twists and turns right up until the end and of course there is a love story that takes quite a while to materialize because of all the drama that is gong on.

About the Author: (from Amazon)


Award-winning, bestselling author Angel Sefer was born in Athens, Greece, and has studied and worked on both sides of the Atlantic. She holds a degree in Economics and divides her time between the corporate world and her true passion: reading and writing mystery romance novels, full of heart-racing action, suspense, twists and turns, and breathtaking romance.

Angel lives in Athens, Greece, with the two loves of her life--her son and her husband--and is a member of several writers groups.

The Greek islands--alluring destinations that cast a spell on the visitor from the very first moment--are among her favorite settings. She has written a whole series of standalone mystery romance novels--The Greek Isles Series--each taking place on a different island.

In this series, dark mysteries mingle with sizzling romances, while the reader enjoys the virtual experience of visiting some of the most enchanting Greek islands. The impeccable beauty of those islands--where nature exists lavishly in hundred shades of green and blue, and centuries of Greek tradition coexist harmoniously with cosmopolitan activity--will steal the reader's heart away.

Award-winning bestseller Spellbound in His Arms is the first novel published in The Greek Isles Series. In this suspenseful tale of murder, deceit, and political cover-up, sexy investigative reporter Jackie ignites the fury and stirs the passion of mysterious police detective Michael. The action unfolds on majestic Corfu in the dazzling aquamarine waters of the Ionian Sea.

Bestseller Deadly Secrets is the second novel published in The Greek Isles Series. Stunning Helena and seductive Captain Dimitris confront each other--and make sparks--in this suspenseful tale of murder, deceit, embezzlement, and treachery. The action unfolds on picturesque Mykonos--one of the most beautiful islands in the sparkling sapphire waters of the Aegean Sea--and is supported by a steamy story of forbidden love.

The Heiress of Santorini is the third novel published in The Greek Isles Series. The startling truth about her billionaire client drives breathtaking insurance manager Alexandra over the edge but cannot quell her desire for sinfully handsome and off-limits Mark. This tale of non-stop action, suspense, deceit, and murder unfolds in Atlanta, New York, and on the awe-inspiring island of Santorini--a precious gem in the Aegean Sea that is still an active volcano with spectacular rock formations, impressive lunar landscapes, and breathtaking red and black sand beaches.

Dark Shadows of The Past is the fourth novel in The Greek Isles Series. Dazzling Christina is caught in a deadly game of conspiracy, murder, treachery, and vengeance while desperately trying to conceal her real identity. Seductively handsome police detective Dan puts his job and life on the line to protect this feisty enchantress from the threat hovering over her. The non-stop action and steamy romance unfolds in Atlanta, the Blue Ridge Mountains of Northern Georgia, and the island of Cephalonia--the fascinating setting of "Captain Corelli's Mandolin" in the amazing aquamarine waters of the Ionian Sea. Dark Shadows of The Past will be available Winter 2015. (HUM--she is ahead of schedule!!)

I love that it's a series that I can read each book as a stand alone, or if I like them, I can read them all :)

I love reading a novella that can be read as a stand alone. I don't have a lot of time to read and more often, I forget to buy the whole series. I would love to read this book.

This sounds like a fun beach read to help me escape the stress of back to school. I especially like that it is a series book yet is strong enough to stand alone. Unfortunately I don't get as much time to read as I would like!

I love a good suspense read. I love that you are able to read it alone or as part of the series as I am often given books that are part of a collection and end up not being able to read them as I don't have them all. Thanks for sharing:)

I have to say, I judge books by their covers and I would have picked this one up just based on the cover.

Linda Carmical said...

This series sounds like a really good read. I like that you say each could actually be read as a stand alone, but like what a series offers too. For me great books are like great TV series... when they end I hate it.

I love books that can be read as stand alones but I prefer to read entire series. Looks like a great book.
