Review
I loved this book!!!!! It’s sooooo cute! I really enjoy Denise Hunter’s novels. They are cute, Christian-friendly and filled with romance!
This book is about Shelby Thatcher, a young women running her grandmother’s bookstore after her passing. Shelby isn’t certain how to build up her business without her grandmother by her side, but she certainly didn’t want to run it with Gray Briggs, the man who broke her heart! But now, she’s going to need his help to fix her bookstore. Hopefully without losing her heart to him again…
This book was fabulous!!!!!!! I loved the story sooo much! The characters were so well written, the plotline was amazing and the entire book was great! Every part of this novel was a 10 out of 10 for me! There are some sad parts, mention of losing someone as well as breakups and such. The story is written for older girls, so I would say 16 and up.
Overall, this is a fabulous rom-com and I very much suggest! It is a great read for any lady 16 and up. -The Young Llama Reader.

Shelby Thatcher adores working in the charming small-town bookshop her grandmother opened years ago. Since high school she’s helped Gram turn the shop into a community hub for book lovers in the lakeside town of Grandville, NC. When her beloved grandma passes away, Shelby inherits the bookstore. But to her shock, Gram leaves half ownership to Gray Briggs, the man who broke Shelby’s heart years ago.
Grandville residents have been vilifying Gray as long as he can remember. After graduating high school he couldn’t skip town fast enough, even though it meant leaving the girl he’d fallen deeply in love with and alienating her family once and for all. Now he’s back, the beneficiary of his elderly friend’s will. Facing the town’s animosity is difficult, but seeing Shelby again is sheer torture. No one could ever stir his heart the way she did.
As the adversaries are forced to work together, Gram’s beyond-the-grave scheme is working–Shelby’s old feelings for Gray begin to resurface. But the problems that destroyed their relationship before still remain, and a new one surfaces–one that threatens Gram’s beloved bookshop. Is their love doomed to fail again, or will they find a way to make it work this time around?
