“I really enjoyed reading this book. I don't normally go for romantic novels but thought I'd give it a go due to it being set in Cyprus and at RAF Akrotiri in particular. I spent an amazing 4 years there in the mid '80s and this book brought back some lovely memories of this beautiful island. I'd recommend it at a good read, whether you've spent time in Cyprus or not.”

Aphrodite's Child

When her RAF husband is posted to Cyprus for three years, Emily Blackwell jumps at the opportunity to escape her cosy life in the Cotswolds.  Embracing everything the island has to offer, she reinvents herself, only to find that this new life brings its own heartache and tragedy.  In a modern take on the myth of Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love, Emily's experiences on Cyprus change her, and she comes to question everything she thought she knew about herself and her former existence.  But the choices she makes will affect not only her, but everyone she loves...

But she finds that her Destiny is not written in the stars.  It’s within herself…
