A sun-drenched destination romance about second chances, fake love, and discovering that sometimes the last place you expect to fall in love is exactly where it happens.
After the worst breakup of her life and a humiliation that refuses to fade, Clara Stone needs distance from everything that once felt certain. What she does not need is a nonrefundable dream vacation to Santorini that was meant to be romantic. Now she finds herself alone on one of the most beautiful islands in the world, surrounded by honeymoon views and sunset terraces that only remind her of everything that went wrong.
Clara arrives determined to survive the week quietly and return home with her pride intact.
Then she runs into Alex Costa.
Alex is many things Clara does not want in her life right now: confident, frustratingly charming, and the best friend of her brother, which makes him dangerously familiar. He is also the one person who has always known exactly how to challenge her, tease her, and push every emotional button she tries to hide.
When a chaotic wedding week and an unfortunate travel mix-up force Clara and Alex into close proximity, they agree on a temporary solution: pretend to be in love for seven days.
It is a simple deal meant to solve a complicated situation.
Seven days of fake romance.
Seven days of shared plans and convincing smiles.
Seven days before real life resumes and they go their separate ways. No feelings. No complications. No crossing the line.
But Santorini has a way of changing people.
Between cliffside sunsets, island adventures, and the unexpected intimacy of spending every day together, Clara and Alex begin to discover that their carefully drawn rules may not survive the chemistry between them. The more time they spend pretending, the harder it becomes to remember where the act ends and something real begins.
As old wounds resurface and secrets from the past threaten to unravel everything, Clara must decide whether the safest choice is still the right one. Because the island she came to as an escape might become the place where she learns that love is worth risking again.
And sometimes seven days is all it takes to change a life.
Set against the stunning backdrop of the Greek islands, this uplifting romance explores what happens when two people stop pretending they have all the answers and start choosing love anyway.
Perfect for fans of Emily Henry, Sarah Morgan, and Jenny Colgan, Seven Days in Santorini is an unforgettable summer love story about courage, healing, and discovering that the most unexpected journeys can lead you exactly where you belong.
