A Single Girl's Guide to Greece - pictures of Monemvasia


Available now for the following ereaders: 


For Ava, a travel writer, the best way to get away from a bad relationship is to head to Greece to hike medieval strongholds and tour the countryside. Two weeks later, however, she finds herself broke and stranded in a beautiful, yet remote, seaside town. When a handsome café worker tricks her into joining him for dinner, she has no idea she just might have found the answer to her problems. 

A Single Girl's Guide to Greece is Book #1 of the Traveling Romances series.
 

 
Suzanne Bourgeois has traveled throughout Greece and the beautiful town of Monemvasia was the inspiration for A Single Girl's Guide to Greece. Suzanne wanted to share some of her photos from Monemvasia with her readers here, and we thought you'd like to see some of the things described in the novella!
