 I borrowed this audiobook from my local library, and while it was quite long, it was also wonderful. I especially appreciated the narrator's skill in captivating the listener's attention and bringing you into the story. There were times I laughed out loud, looked at my phone funny when something happened, and also squealed at the end. It is a very romantic and realistic happy ending. 📚🫶

I received this ARC from NetGalley to read and review, so thank you!  This book was a sweet, clean read.  I really enjoyed the romantic storyline.  It was refreshing to find something without any overly dramatic or explicit scenes.  It's definitely a feel-good story perfect for a relaxing evening.  Highly recommend for anyone looking for a lighthearted romance.

The premise of the story is about a woman named Jules who is trying to save her great aunt's bookshop in a little town in Devon, UK. 🥰📖🇬🇧 She falls for the devastatingly handsome, Roman, who is also the new owner of a competing bookstore. 😍🔥📖
