Review

"Written in Moschoudi's expert style, The Storm kept sending goosebumps up and down my spine as I was reading."
~Nicholas Rossis, author of The Pearseus scifi series

"Read in one sitting, I couldn't put it down."
~Lisa Richards, reviewer on Amazon.co.uk

From the Author

The Lady of the Pier trilogy tells the stories of Sofia and Laura - two girls from two different worlds who have a mysterious connection. In book 1, although similar in some ways, the two stories are seemingly unrelated. In book 2, they begin to merge and in the concluding volume, The Storm, they become one story. The author recommends to start reading from book 1 - The Ebb. For free excerpts and book trailers, visit Effrosyniwrites.com

Effrosyni Moschoudi was born and raised in Athens, Greece. As a child, she loved to sit alone in her garden scribbling rhymes about flowers, butterflies and ants. Today, she writes books for the romantic at heart. She lives in a quaint seaside town near Athens with a British husband, two naughty cats, and a staggering amount of books and DVDs. Her little town is heavenly enough, yet her mind forever drifts to her beloved island of Corfu.

The Ebb, her new adult romance that was inspired from her summers in Corfu in the 1980s, is an ABNA Q-Finalist. Her debut novel, The Necklace of Goddess Athena, won a silver medal in the 2017 book awards of Readers' Favorite. Her ghost romance novella, The Boy on the Bridge, was a Top 10 winner in the “50 Best Indie Books” awards of Readfree.ly in 2021.

Effrosyni’s books are sweet romances (low heat and no sex scenes). Running Haunted, My Corfu Love Story, and The Necklace of Goddess Athena are clean & wholesome. All the books are Amazon bestsellers, having hit #1 several times, and are available in kindle and paperback format.

What others say about Effrosyni's books:

"Effrosyni layers her words on the page like music." ~Jackie Weger, author of The House on Persimmon Road

"Very few writers have such a gift for realism." ~Kelly Smith Reviews

"I was glued to the pages by the author’s vivid descriptions and her beautiful, almost poetic way of writing." ~Angel Sefer, author of The Greek Isles series

"Moschoudi's writing is impressive; sweet and delicate yet powerful, like a punch rolled up in silk." ~Nicholas Rossis, author of The Pearseus sci-fi series

    Intriguing! I was hooked from the first chapter

    Effrosyni Moschoudi weaves an interesting tale in her trilogy, The Lady of the Pier. More accurately, the reader is gifted with two stories. At first, I wasn’t sure how they could possibly tie together, and I found myself looking for a connection between the two as I read.
    Sofia is a teenager visiting her grandparents in Corfu in the summer of 1987. Laura moves to Brighton with her mother in 1937. Both young women fall in love. But this is where the similarity in their stories end…or do they?
    The trilogy is classified as a paranormal romance, and with that as my clue, by the end of the first book, The Ebb, I began to speculate what the connection was between Sofia and Laura.
    Each story as a standalone was compelling enough to keep me reading, however, both in one book was addicting. The author captured the time period of each era beautifully and descriptively, giving the reader a real sense of pre and post war torn England, and in contrast, the simplicity and magical paradise known as Corfu.
    In The Flow Sofia and Laura face obstacles, and by the third book, The Storm, choices must be made to find happiness or allow disaster to repeat.
    For me, the best part of the book was the last section, but you will have to find out why for yourself. Very interesting and fascinating.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A captivating revelation of the secrets haunting Sofia and tormenting the Lady of the Pier
    Reviewed in the United States on July 19, 2017

    Having read and enjoyed books 1 and 2 in The Lady of the Pier trilogy, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on The Storm (The Lady of the Pier Book 3). I devoured this book during a short vacation and enjoyed every minute of it.
    In this captivating third book, the heartbreaking story of Laura and Christian and the stormy affair of Sofia and Danny blend together and come to a breathtaking and awe-inspiring revelation.
    What can I say about this book and the trilogy as a whole?
    The vivid characters made me feel as if they were going to jump out of the pages; Charles’ cruel behavior, Laura’s suffering, Christian’s self-sacrifice, Danny’s struggle to understand and face the issues tormenting him, and Sofia’s determination to fight for her love created overwhelming feelings.
    The fascinating descriptions made me want to visit Corfu again and Brighton for the first time.
    The author’s graceful way of writing and the poems included in the novel touched my heart.
    5 stars for this book and the whole trilogy!

    4.0 out of 5 stars The Storm (Book 3 in "The Lady of the Pier" Trilogy)
    Reviewed in the United States on October 27, 2017
    Verified Purchase
    After moving to Brighton, Sofia has vivid nightmares comprising of snippets of the Lady’s life. Annika, her Sweedish roommate, who is a paranormal enthusiast, offers to help Sofia and find out the truth about the mysterious Lady and the bizarre dreams the Greek girl experiences. The Lady haunts Sofia more aggressively than before because she wants Sofia to give Danny another chance, but the Greek girl is tired of Danny’s insecurities. Annika becomes Sofia’s friend and she encourages her to take a leap of faith just like the Lady demands of her because who knows what might happen next.

    “I strongly doubt this is likely to go away. Sorry to say this Sophia . . . but you’ll remain knee deep in trouble unless you take heed. Spirits, when haunting someone as relentlessly as The Lady has been haunting you, don’t give up easily. In fact, from what I know, the more you resist her, the scarier the manifestations you’re likely to face. (…) You don’t want to play tough with spirits, Sofia! It’s already turned scary.” (p. 39-40)

    Meanwhile, Laura and Maggie pray for Christian and Eric to return safely to England from France. Terror strikes the two women every time they hear of a British ship that has sunk after being hit by the Germans. After hearing some good news about Christian and Eric, Maggie advises Laura to write to Christian and even to take her child and move to Devon to start a new life with him. However, Laura is not thrilled about this idea because she is afraid for her and Freddie’s life because Charles is capable of anything including killing her or harming the child. Though Maggie is Laura’s best friend, I think that she is a bit naïve at times because she doesn't realise how vengeful and cruel Charles can be. Maggie feels guilty for the wrong advice she gave Laura in the past, but she finds a way to make her friend a little happier by trying to build a bridge between Laura and Christian. Will Christian finally learn the truth and forgive Laura for the mistakes she has done in the past?

    “Laura never discussed it with Maggie, but now she’d daydream endlessly about the tiny chance of seeing Christian again. She hoped it could happen somehow, but her pride would never allow her to reach out to him, or even to ask Maggie to intervene.” (p. 108)

    The story is different from what I’ve read before due to the two distinct yet familiar plotlines, the paranormal aspect of the trilogy and the details you have to discover and put together to uncover the big picture. One of my favourite scenes is the one where Sofia encounters some of the people who knew Laura Mayfield and she begins to understand why the spirit chose her to come to Brighton and fight for Danny’s love. It’s really an emotional moment for both Sofia and the reader because past and present seem to meet through memories and meaningful objects for Laura, her family and old friends.

    However, there is something I didn’t like. Though the love triangle is well-built and makes sense in Laura’s story, I don’t think that it was that necessary in Sofia’s story. I understand that, by meeting Jeff, Sofia deviates from the path the Lady asked her to take and thus the nightmares intensify and force her to take action. But I still didn’t like how Sofia swings back and forth between Danny and Jeff. She gives Jeff the wrong message and she makes the two guys jealous of each other. I know that both Sofia and Danny are pretty insecure and apprehensive about their relationship, but it felt a bit disappointing to see a love triangle be used as a plot device.

    In the end, The Lady of the Pier trilogy triggers various feelings within the reader, ranging from heartbreak, sorrow, anger, disappointment, but also sympathy, love and hope. If you love romance novels and emotional rides, then this is a trilogy you will enjoy.

    This is a wonderful story! I couldn't put it down! ... and I hated to see it end!

    This is the final story in the Lady of the Pier trilogy... and it was just simply amazing! What else can I say? It was a richly developed tale from the beginning to the end! The characters are so vivid and real! They are human with the virtues and the foibles... The way the story weaved the elements to merge into one? Just beautiful! I loved this story as we see how everything comes together... and still, I hated to see the end!

    If you love a different kind of story where you have to wait to see how the pieces fall together, you will love this book - and the whole trilogy! You can't always see where it's headed, and that's the fun of it!

    I have already pre-ordered her next book as the author certainly writes such wonderful stories in a beautiful fashion!
