One summer. One island. One love they'll never forget. Isla escapes to Santorini hoping to outrun the mess she left behind—what she didn't expect was Nico. Quiet, mysterious, and effortlessly charming, Nico seems to understand her in a way no one else has. Their connection is immediate, undeniable, and impossibly timed. As the days drift by in golden light and starlit skies, Isla and Nico begin to open up in ways they never have before, uncovering wounds, hopes, and the kind of longing that can only bloom when time is running out. But summer has an expiration date. And some hearts aren't ready to stay. Set against the breathtaking backdrop of a Grecian island, We Were Almost Something is a tender, cinematic novella about fleeting love, unforgettable moments, and the ache of almost. For fans of Emily Henry, Jojo Moyes, and lovers of poetic storytelling, this is a story for anyone who's ever left a piece of themselves behind.
