The Getaway | Isabelle Broom
3 posts | 2 read | 2 to read
Sometimes it takes losing everything to find the person you need . . . Most people travel to Croatia for its endless sunshine, pebbly beaches and crystal clear sea. Kate goes there to disappear. She needs to escape from a life that has fallen apart in spectacular and public fashion, and no one on the beautiful island of Hvar knows who she is or what she's running away from. Until she meets another lonely soul. Alex is different to any man Kate has ever known, yet the connection between them is undeniable. She soon begins to open up in ways she never has before - not even to herself. But Kate is not the only person in Hvar hiding secrets. And, as she is about to discover, it is always only a matter of time before the truth catches up with you . . . --- Praise for Isabelle Broom: 'Gloriously escapist, unashamedly romantic, witty and hugely enjoyable' Sunday Mirror 'I totally lost myself in this heart-warming, charming tale of love, family and gorgeous Greece.

This was an enjoyable read set mostly in Croatia. Kate escapes to visit her brother after a video of her proposing to her boyfriend goes viral for the wrong reasons. While there she meets Alex and slowly they begin a friendship which may or may not move on to something else. You kind of know what will happen but it's still was a good read.

Very good. Loved how the author can take you away without leaving your seat with her powerful descriptions of the beautiful island of Croatia. Also the powerful story of Kate and Alex was one of not just them finding each other but themselves, with powerful sentences that make you question your life and your choices as to whether you are making the right ones for your life.
