Looking for a little slice of Mediterranean sunshine? Discover where to buy The Apokeri Bay Series from wonderful independent bookshops and artisan gift shops across the North East and Yorkshire.
One of the joys of being an author is getting to know fantastic local businesses run by passionate people who love books, creativity and supporting their communities. From beautiful bookshops to artisan gift stores, there are now more places than ever where you can pick up The Apokeri Bay Series.
So, if you love supporting local businesses by escaping to a sun-drenched Greek island or stepping aboard a Mediterranean cruise ship, here’s where you’ll find my evocative, secret-driven novels.
Independent Bookshops
Independent bookshops are incredibly special places. They champion authors, create communities, host events and keep our high streets vibrant. I’m delighted that The Apokeri Bay Series can be found in the following wonderful bookshops:
A true gem on the Northumberland coast. I was fortunate enough to have an author event here and received such a fantastic welcome from both the team and readers. If you’re visiting Amble, be sure to pop in.
A beautiful and thoughtfully curated bookshop in the heart of Whitley Bay. The perfect place to lose yourself among the shelves and discover your next favourite read.
Book Corner, Saltburn-by-the-Sea
This delightful seaside bookshop is packed with charm and has long been a supporter of independent authors. If you’re enjoying a day by the coast, it’s well worth a visit.
Featherbed Books, Houghton-le-Spring
A wonderful family-run bookshop with a genuine love of books and readers. Independent businesses like this are the heartbeat of local communities.
Nestled close to the North York Moors, this thriving bookshop is a paradise for book lovers and a fantastic supporter of local and independent authors.
Situated in the famous Yorkshire coastal town, this bookshop is a must-visit destination for readers exploring Whitby and its literary heritage.
A brilliant new and second-hand bookshop in Newcastle’s Heaton area, filled with character, great reads and friendly faces.
Don’t see your local bookshop here?
The good news is that any bookshop can usually order copies for you. If your favourite independent bookshop doesn’t currently stock The Apokeri Bay Series, simply ask. Most bookshops regularly place customer orders, and you’ll be supporting a local business at the same time.
Gift Shops and Artisan Stockists
Books make wonderful gifts, and I’m incredibly grateful that The Apokeri Bay Series sits alongside a fantastic selection of locally made products, artisan crafts and beautiful gifts.
A gorgeous artisan emporium filled with beautiful jewellery, handcrafted products and carefully selected gifts. It’s a wonderful place to find something special for someone you love, or perhaps a little treat for yourself.

This friendly and welcoming gift shop is packed with wonderful local products and talented local authors. I’m thrilled to see my books sitting alongside so many creative North East businesses.
A fantastic independent gift shop in the heart of Newcastle’s vibrant Ouseburn Valley, offering a carefully curated collection of unique gifts, local products and creative treasures.
Thank you
Every time you buy a book from an independent business, you’re helping to support your local high street, passionate booksellers, talented artisans and small business owners.
As an independently published author, that support means the world to me too.
So, whether you discover The Apokeri Bay Series in a cosy bookshop, a bustling seaside town, a beautiful artisan gift shop or a historic village, thank you for choosing to support independent businesses.
And most importantly, I hope you enjoy your little slices of sunshine filled with friendship, romance, secrets and a twist or two.
Happy reading,
Jackie
