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 clean and sweet romances. All the books are Amazon bestsellers, having hit #1 several times, and are available in kindle and paperback format.

“It’s a step up from Mills and Boon – much more Mary Stewart than Barbara Cartland, with a bit of Gothic horror and Harry Potter-esque magic in the mix. And it’s certainly a page-turner.” ~Hilary Whitton Paipeti, author of In the Footsteps of Lawrence Durrell and Gerald Durrell in Corfu”
Effrosyni’s novel, The Raven Witch of Corfu, is a Greek fantasy romance set in Messonghi, Corfu. It was inspired by the author’s love for this quaint little village, as well as the lush mountains of the peninsula that have always mesmerized her when she sat on the beach. The story has a bit of everything: magic, sweet romance, humor, suspense and a touch of family drama. The final twist will blow your mind! Go here to read more.
