There Are Worse People
Lost in a strange land. Found in his arms.
In the sun-drenched hills of Macedonia, Ilaria lives a life that isn’t her own. Widowed too soon, and bound by her late husband’s family, Ilaria moves through each day under the weight of duty and tradition, holding on only for her young son.
When Jesse—a magnetic local returning after years abroad—steps back into her quiet world, he sees the woman behind the restraint. His presence awakens something Ilaria has long buried: desire, courage, and the dangerous hope of freedom.
But in a place where every choice is judged, will love be her salvation or her undoing?
Set against the backdrop of a culture where family, loyalty, and appearance rule, There Are Worse People is a story of belonging, identity, and the courage to reclaim your own life.

About The Author
Irina Angelova
Irina Angelova has moved between countries her entire life, to the point where she’s not sure where home really is. Pieces of her heart belong to Japan, Malta, China, India, and Macedonia. Currently, Irina lives in North Macedonia, raising her two children and two dogs, and loving her husband, while working as a pedagogical designer and content creator. This work gives her the freedom to write whenever and wherever she wants—often, like a true writer, in a coffee shop with her laptop.
