25 Days in Athens by Jack Strange (Paperback)

A brand new escapist destination MM queer romance and a summer holiday story for fans of Casey McQuiston, M. A. Wardell and Alexis Hall. Set against the sun-soaked streets of Athens, this romance blends second chances, self-discovery and emotional tension in a vibrant Mediterranean setting.

In the warmth of Athens, Will finds himself facing a past decision he cannot ignore. Three years earlier, he turned down Ollie’s proposal, a choice that changed both of their lives. Now he has been invited to Ollie’s wedding in the very city where they once dreamed of building a future together. With twenty-five days ahead of him, Will is forced to confront whether he made the right choice or whether he is living with a mistake he cannot undo.

As he navigates the city’s ancient ruins, lively streets and emotional memories, Will reconnects with his past while trying to understand what he truly wants for his future. Everything becomes more complicated when he unexpectedly crosses paths with his childhood friend Sam, whose presence brings a new layer of emotion and uncertainty into his already fragile situation.

Torn between history, regret and possibility, Will must decide what love really means and whether the life he imagined is still the one he wants. Against a backdrop of friendship, memory and change, every choice carries weight.

Perfect for readers who enjoy destination romance, second chance relationships, childhood friends to lovers, self-discovery journeys and forced proximity stories set in immersive travel locations.
