“Why would anyone go to the trouble of removing stones in a wall to conceal them?” I sat quietly thinking about his words and what reason a person would have to hide such beautiful love letters. If someone had written such eloquent letters to me I would have cherished them forever...
When bird migratory PhD doctorate Jacqueline leaves London for a six-month sabbatical on the Greek island of Corfu, she expects solitude, research, and the familiar comfort of birds and migration. What she doesn’t expect is Dimitri — younger, magnetic, and impossible to ignore.
'Not for Keeps' is one of those stories that just stays with you. The characters feel real, the places feel alive, and there’s a quiet humour and warmth that makes it impossible not to get attached. I found myself thinking about it long after I’d finished reading.
'Not for Keeps' is the kind of story readers fall hard for—warm, immersive, and emotionally gripping from the very first chapter. A captivating read with heart, humour, and a wonderfully grounded sense of place, highlighting Mills’ gift for storytelling that feels both refreshingly authentic and deeply relatable.
This book draws you in effortlessly. The everyday moments feel meaningful, the people feel real, and the sense of place is so vivid you can almost see, hear, and smell it. It’s the kind of story that stays with you after you turn the last page.
'Not For Keeps' e-Book is available to purchase on Amazon or as a PDF direct download.
