First things first: Moira Quirk is one of my favorite narrators. She has one of those voices you want to listen to, so her narrating this book helped with the enjoyment factor.

Now the book itself: Greek Secret is the story of a woman recovering from....something....a lost job? A questionable relationship? We really don't know when we meet Ruby, landing on Corfu, in Greece to work at her family's restaurant for the summer. Very quickly, we meet the broody interest, Yianni: Ruby's new colleague.

This book is told as a dual timeline, which always peaks my interest and makes me want to continue reading to be able to put the whole story together. It definitely added to this story. I really enjoyed that aspect of the story, and how it felt like there were appropriately-timed pushes back to the past and through Ruby's memories of events. I do wish, however, some of the past was a little more fleshed out. There are some plot lines that are hinted at throughout the story that are never really tied up and explained, which was frustrating. This also focuses intensely on Ruby and her relationship with her ex with a lot of side characters that felt one-noted and there simply to advance the plot rather than to add to Ruby's story. I would have liked to get to know Ruby's family and friends more.

Overall, this was an enjoyable book that is a good, light summer read.

Thanks NetGalley for the ARC audiobook of Greek Secret by Francesca Catlow, published by Brilliance Publishing
This was a wonderful story with a happy ending. The characters were genuine and likeable, I loved the storyline and setting. The author makes the reader feel like they are right there.
It took me a bit to warm up to the main character Ruby and her personality, but I did as her true self slowly evolved. I enjoyed following along as she worked through events and emotions from her past that have shaped who she is now. Ruby was working towards a goal of restaurant ownership and had a plan all mapped out. She makes her way to Greece,  meets new people in new places and had to prioritize herself again.
Loved the ending!
This is the first of this author's books that I've read, but not the last.
I also must add that the narrator was excellent with characters voices and accents

I loved this book. The descriptions of Corfu were absolutely beautiful and as for the characters I just loved them and wanted to know what happened next. A great story with unexpected twists in a wonderful location. My only criticism was of the narration with poor Greek pronunciation. I have listened to audiobooks by this author before and found them much more enjoyable with excellent pronunciation by a more professional actor..

This book is not for me. The pace is slow and the story focused on details rather than action. The audiobook narration is fine, but I found the male voices to be a bit gruff.

Thanks, NetGalley, for the ARC.

This was a clear miss. I disliked both the book and its narrator. The writing wasn't compelling at all, too descriptive in a bland, boring way, and the humor didn't land for me at all. It felt immature, I guess. It sounded as though the narrator moved away from her mic a bit or something, and her pronunciation of Greek words (spoken by actual Greeks in the story) was horrible. (I'm Greek, so, massive pet peeve alert.)
Shame. I was looking forward to this story!

Thank you to Netgalley for the audio ARC in exchange for an honest review.
