A Bookshop Summer by Stephanie Butland

Over 350 5-Star Reviews!

An intriguing, heartwarming novel about four strangers brought together in a York bookshop—and the unexpected ways books can change a life.

When the Lost for Words bookshop hosts an event for a new reading project, four strangers walk through its doors—and leave with their lives quietly transformed.

Trixie loves her job at Lost for Words and finally feels calm and settled—until a phone call from her ex threatens to unravel everything.

Cherry only attends because she desperately needs a break. Caring for her grandmother alone has left her exhausted and isolated, and she’s still hoping her long-lost sister might one day come home.

Rhiannon and Guy instantly connect at the bookshop, and Guy seems wonderfully at ease with Rhiannon’s baby. It feels like the beginning of something special—if only Rhiannon weren’t hiding a life-changing secret.

As the group grows closer through their shared love of books, each of them begins to see new possibilities for the future—and the courage to turn the page.

Slightly South of Simple by Kristy Woodson Harvey

Over 3,050 5-Star Reviews!

A heartfelt Southern family drama about three sisters returning home, where long-buried secrets, second chances, and the bonds between mothers and daughters are tested.

Caroline Murphy swore she’d never set foot back in the small Southern town of Peachtree Bluff. A born-and-bred New Yorker, she never forgave her mother for uprooting her during her senior year of high school. But after her high-profile marriage collapses in spectacular fashion, a pregnant Caroline returns home with her nine-year-old daughter to escape the gossip and start over.

Ansley has always put her three daughters first. After her late husband left her with almost nothing, she rebuilt her life by creating a thriving waterfront design business. She’s happy to welcome Caroline home, but when her second daughter, Sloane, and youngest daughter, actress Emerson, return as well, the independence Ansley fought so hard to achieve begins to slip away.

Then a man from Ansley’s past reenters her life, threatening to expose a secret she has kept from her daughters for years.

Warm, emotional, and rich with Southern charm, this novel explores family, forgiveness, and the ties that bind mothers and daughters across generations.
