A sweet romance book although predictable at times. I felt like some of the minor characters needed an end to their story as well.

So. Many. Feels!! This book was a delight but there were also moments that just tugged at your heartstrings. I laughed, I cheered, I squeed and I cried. Within this rollercoaster of emotion, there was a love of books, family and Em and Kieran. Between the lovely Irish setting, the bookshop and the characters there were so many things to love!

Read if you love small town, emotional romances, with a beautiful found family element!
When an American librarian moves to a quaint Irish village where her favorite novelist lives, the last thing she expects is to fall for the author’s prickly son… of course that's exactly what happens!
Cleverly written for those who love books. The plot follows Em, who starts working with her favourite novelist to help her finish writing the long awaited final novel of her favourite series. As a reader who has been waiting for certain series continuations for a long time, I fully empathised.
Quaint Irish Town, friendly atmosphere and a cosy bookshop setting. The perfect backdrop for a tension filled, will they won't they romance. With beautifully unfolding relationships, difficult trials and powerfully emotional moments.
A compelling plot, lovable characters and of course the romance! It's definitely worth picking up.

This is such a sweet romance novel, it really pulled me in with the mix between main plot and romance plot. I loved it and the ending was very well done!

Wow!
This book will take you on so many emotional ups and downs.
I did ugly cry at one part, and pretty sure most of you will too (and no, I’m not telling you what it is).
This book picks up with Emily who we met in Summer Reading.
If you have not read Summer Reading, it’s not required for this book, but you will get some back story on Emily & her “Mom”.
Travel to Ireland to meet your favorite author, who has left a book series that shaped your life, just hanging.
Then meet her grumpy son, who hates you are there at all.
Throw in a charming bookshop, a dog, some whiskey, and “keep the bitch in the ditch” for this fun read.
Remember, I do not give spoilers, but trust me on this, get through book when it comes out May 14th, 2024.
