The Holiday

Bogged down under the desire to be a modern woman and the aftershocks of a repressed upbringing, Izzy Jordan is the first to admit that it’s time to take stock of her life. At 31 she has a teaching career that has given her a strong desire to lock her pupils in the art room and throw away the key. She also has a manipulative mother and an ex-boyfriend whose parting shot was to tell her she was boring in bed. When Izzy is invited to spend the summer on Corfu and is offered the chance of a no-strings-attached vacation romance with the irresistible Theo, what should she do? Just as she thinks she’s made up her mind, along comes Mark, whose turbulent past sets in motion a series of dramatic events that will bring near tragedy, profound change, and—ultimately—happiness for Izzy. ** From the Publisher The novels of Erica James—twice shortlisted for the Romantic Novel of the Year award—appear regularly on Britain’s best–seller lists.
