Publisher's Summary

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 best-selling author Samantha Young.

At 33 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.

A delight to read

I REALLY enjoyed this book. It light and sweet and good for the heart.
I admit that the British accents are quite terrible and I completely understand how someone native to the UK would cringe but as a Canadian it was tolerable l, especially because the story was so enjoyable.

Loved it!

I give this book 5 stars because the attraction between the characters was romantically steamy and built up perfectly. The bedroom scenes were intimate without being pornopraghic. The perfect balance for me! Lastly, the characters were flawed and likeable. I found myself wanting to know what happens with some of the secondary characters in the book too. Hopefully there will be a book about Carol next!

Story was good. Narrator terrible

The story was really a very cute, light read. I wish they had used different voice actors for the different characters. To be honest I found myself getting thoroughly annoyed with the cheesy accents and almost didn’t finish the book.

Fun, predictable and easy listening

I enjoyed the characters on this escape to England and to the quaint village the story is set in. Although entirely predictable I still am glad I listened. Would recommend for someone looking for something light and romantic.

I wish someone else had done the accents.

I wish someone else had done the accents and that it was narrated by 2 people. I couldn't finish the book because the accent became so annoying by chapter 5
