Angeliki was born and raised in a small village on the island of Corfu by "parents limited by their own personal problems", verifying that a happy childhood is more of a myth than a reality. The girl grows into a sensitive but strong woman who faces with grim determination life's challenges. The search for love guides her on a path to the island of Kos where she meets Oresti. Together they form a relationship which fulfills their karmic destiny. Working together in an orphanage, they come to realize that "love is a revolutionary energy empowered to create, hope and heal, in direct contrast to pain and all of life's adversities".The two extraordinarily beautiful Greek islands become the scenic background and foundation for Oresti and Angeliki to fulfill their deepest desires, despite the obstacles that fate has thrown into their path. ..."Two Islands, One Love" was recommended by the "National Herald" as a gift for Mother's Day.

I was born and raised in the island of Corfu where I studied and received a degree in nursing. I went on to study psychology and hypnotherapy. I presently live in the island of Kos with my husband and our two children. In my free time I enjoy taking walks in nature and absorbing the beauty of the island. ’Two Islands, One Love’, although it contains some autobiographical material, is a novel. The characters and the events are mostly fictional. Its basic theme is what most people are searching for, genuine love. I began writing the story during my pregnancy and I finished it when our children reached their first birthday. I had the loving and invaluable support of my husband who is for me what Orestis was for Angeliki.
