Synopsis Summer in Greece by : Patricia Wilson

Could these crystal clear waters hide the secrets of her past? Present day For years Shelly Summer has buried herself in her work, trying to forget her past. The only time she feels truly herself is when she's diving in the Mediterranean - the calm and stillness of the clear waters help her forget. Back home, Shelly stumbles across the belongings of her great-grandmother, Gertie Smith including a recording of Gertie's memoirs. As Shelly listens to it, she starts to uncover the secrets of Gertie's past, which might just hold the key to letting go of her own. 1916 When trainee nurse Gertie Smith signs up for the war effort, she is thrilled to learn that her destination will be Greece. With a head full of blue skies and handsome men, she boards the Titanic's sister ship, the ill-fated hospital ship Britannic. Unprepared for the horrors of war, she heads for the Greek island of Lemnos on a mission to rescue three thousand wounded British soldiers. But tragically, the Britannic never reaches its destination. When rescued, Gertie is taken to the Greek island of Kea, where she meets and falls in love with a Greek fisherman, Manno - but she finds herself torn between him and her duty to an English soldier. Gertie cannot shake the guilt she feels from that tragic night the ship sank and is afraid her past will eventually catch up with her. Escape to paradise this Christmas with an irresistible tale of love and loss.

Synopsis Summer in Greece by : Patricia Wilson

"Present day. Twenty years ago, the tragic death of her boyfriend prompted Summer to give up their new baby for adoption. Since then, she has lived a solitary life with her father, focusing on her career as a vet and trying not to think of the past. So when her great-aunt Pauline comes to visit from Greece, she disrupts Summer's carefully manicured life. She brings with her tales of Gertie, Summer's long-dead great-grandmother, and a love story that spanned decades. As Summer learns more about her family's past, she begins to long for its future, and begins to track down the son she has not seen since his birth... 1916. After a tragic mistake contributed to the sinking of the HMS Britannic, Gertie Smith is determined to leave the past behind. Working as a nurse for the war effort, she is sent to the Greek island of Kea, where she meets and falls desperately in love with a Greek fisherman, Manno. But fate conspires to keep them apart, and when Gertie's past catches up with her, she has to choose between love and her freedom."--Publisher.
