Time enough for Anna Jenkinson to determine her future. And then return home. But when this feisty young woman unexpectedly falls in love with the quaint seaside village of Apokeri, she seizes the chance for a new life. Away from her friends, former lover and a critical father. However, this beach lovers' paradise is not always what it seems. And Anna unwittingly becomes embroiled in a host of other people's plans - including a matchmaking café owner, a laid-back bike rental employee and a man desperate to escape island life.

Living close to the banks of the River Tyne she is often found striding in the countryside with her partner and their extremely cute and characterful Miniature Schnauzer, pottering in their allotment, running or occasionally cycling. There have been many travelling adventures to far-flung or closer to home destinations, including her own escape to Greece. After twenty years in marketing Jackie took a leap of faith and embarked on a new life as a women's contemporary fiction author. However, writing is not a new love, but an ongoing passion. And the Apokeri Bay trilogy was born from a recurring dream of a feisty female protagonist who unexpectedly falls in love with a quaint seaside village on the Greek island of Lefkada. In her uplifting and thought-provoking writing Jackie weaves in what we all love about great fiction - the chance to step into the world of somebody else and share in their story. But she certainly doesn't give her characters an easy island life. They must overcome family saga, dark secrets, guilt and betrayal to discover life-changing friendships, hope, joy and learn how to embrace and overcome everything life and love can throws at them.
