✪ Finding You (Destination Love #3) ✪ Jo Watson ✪




When you go to Greece to meet your family but end up making out with your smokin' hot tour guide #sorrynotsorry

Being adopted never made Jane Smith feel unloved, just unlike the rest of her family. As her twenty-fifth birthday approaches, she is struck by an overwhelming longing to finally find her place in the world. So in a very un-Jane-like move, she books a last-minute ticket to Greece to find her birth father and the real Jane. All she knows about him is it that he was a tour guide named Dimitri. Armed with this knowledge and several surprise boxes of condoms from her mom (not embarrassing at all), Jane takes off.

Within minutes of landing she makes two important discoveries. First, everyone in Greece is named Dimitri, and second, fate might be playing a sick joke on her when a sexy tour guide called Dimitri comes to fetch her from the airport. He offers to help Jane with her search---if she'll go on an adventure with him. Stable Jane would never risk a steamy vacation romance. But real Jane might finally be ready to listen to her heart. Will Jane find her biological father, or will she end up finding something else entirely?


 


ARC received for an honest review

Finding You is a fun, sweet, beautiful and at times sad romance that had me right in the story with the characters from cover to cover.

I think there is a little bit of Jane in all of us.  She feels different from her family, she is filled with self doubt, she feels that she doesn't fit in.

When she takes off on a whim to Greece, she definitely finds more than she bargained for.  Through all kinds of chaos and catastrophe, we are taken on an adventure of a life time along with Jane.

Dimitri -it is like that scene in My Big Fat Greek Wedding - meet Nick, Nick, cousin Nick and Nicky.  Every man is a Dimitri.  But this Dimitri is all kinds of swoonworthy.

Ms Watson has written with such vivid imagery that I could feel myself dipping my toe in the Aegean, walking the streets filled with whitewashed yet colourful homes.  I may have had a craving for gyros whilst reading.

What I wasn't expecting in this book was how heartfelt and emotional it would be.  I wasn't expecting the shimmering eyes and the ache in my heart.

I really enjoyed this jaunt to Santorini.
