ABOUT THE BOOK
Life is full of plot twists…
Sandwiched between caring for her mother and rebuilding the relationship with her estranged daughter, Emma, Rosie Lucas’s life is full. In the best way. With Emma and her 3-year old daughter, Olive, back home, Rosie has a partner for The Rainy Day Bookshop, the family business, and a chance to fix the past. What she doesn’t have time for is a romantic relationship. And even if she did, Andrew Morgan is the last person she’d choose. Not only is he an arrogant and reclusive writer, but he’s a single dad with two young kids. She’s already been there, done that. Still as an irresistible flirtation builds between them, he becomes her unexpected confidante on the distance Rosie can’t seem to overcome with Emma, a secret she can’t quite unravel…
Emma isn’t proud of her past. But she’s pulled herself up by the bootstraps, caring for her own daughter, and protecting her mom at all costs. Just as she always has. She never told Rosie what she saw all those years ago and she never will. But some secrets refuse to stay buried, and sometimes the truth is more shocking than fiction. Rosie and Emma will have to navigate an unimaginable path forward. Together.
MY THOUGHTS
What a charming book I just finished.
Small town story really filled with emotion and let’s not forget to add lots of drama.
Family secrets become resolved as the air is cleared in this multigenerational story.
A bookstore, a remodel, coming home, compassion, definitely family oriented and a nice bonus of not one but two romances and the sweetest little girl and a charming dog.
Another winner by the author.
I a complimentary copy of this book.
