Publisher's Description
The cozy comforts of
an English village bookstore open up a world of new possibilities for
Evie Starling in this charming new romantic comedy from New York Times bestselling author Samantha Young.
At
thirty-three-years old Evangeline Starling's life in Chicago is missing
that special something. And when she's passed over for promotion at
work, Evie realizes she needs to make a change. Some time away to regain
perspective might be just the thing. In a burst of impulsivity, she
plans a holiday in a quaint English village. The holiday package comes
with a temporary position at Much Ado About Books, the bookstore located
beneath her rental apartment. There's no better dream vacation for the
bookish Evie, a life-long Shakespeare lover.
Not only is Evie
swept up in running the delightful store as soon as she arrives, she's
drawn into the lives, loves and drama of the friendly villagers.
Including Roane Robson, the charismatic and sexy farmer who tempts Evie
every day with his friendly flirtations. Evie is determined to keep him
at bay because a holiday romance can only end in heartbreak, right? But
Evie can't deny their connection and longs to trust in her handsome
farmer that their whirlwind romance could turn in to the forever kind of
love.
My Thoughts
I received an eARC courtesy of Berkley Publishing Group via NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.
Was this predictable? Yes. Does that make me thrilled? Absolutely!
I
am not looking for tons of surprises in my romances. And this book is
pure escapism. Loved the characters, loved the setting, loved the story.
My one annoyance (minor)-the overuse of the cutesy nickname "angel".
Just a bit cloying for my tastes.
For Libraries: Definitely worth a place on your shelves.
