- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Lily Rose Baxter has bought her parents' flower shop and is making it her own. She should be happy but her long-time fiance doesn't seem to want to set the wedding date. Will Singer comes in every week and Lily finds him intriguing but is it enough to break up with her fiance, especially when Will is hiding secrets of his own.I very much enjoyed this story. Will's secret is heart-rending and their romance is the slow burn I like the best. The secondary complications with her parents added to the story along with interesting side characters. Lily and Will are a good fit, and I rooted for him to overcome his issues and end up with Lily (perhaps overcome isn't the right word, but he definitely had to get by his past). I'll definitely read more by this author.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5First of all, what a very appealing cover The Flower Shop on Foxley Street has. I have a bit of a thing about shops in books and this one just caught my eye straightaway.It's a really sweet story about Lily Baxter who has bought her parents' flower shop. She's been engaged to smarmy golf pro Stuart for six years and still a wedding doesn't seem to be on the cards. And then one day Will Singer enters her shop and her life is turned upside down.It took me a little bit of getting into this book but once I did I was quite caught up with Lily and Will, both of whom I thought were lovely characters although I did sometimes want to reach into the book and shake them. But that's the nature of a romance book isn't it? It tends to have to go wrong before it can go right. Will has a bit of a secret going on and I saw it coming a mile off. But you know, it didn't matter. This is the kind of book where you don't have to think too hard, you just read it and enjoy it. It's a light read, the kind where you know it will all work out in the end. There is a subplot about Lily's parents. Now they don't have the flower shop to run they are drifting apart and getting on Lily's nerves but at least it gives her an opportunity to make a stand for once. Lizzie and Irvin were an annoying pair - I liked them both a lot but they wanted their heads banging together!This book is a pleasant and enjoyable read with a romance at its heart. I loved the interaction between Lily and Will which was portrayed perfectly. All in all I thought it was charming, a feel good comfort read, one to snuggle up with.
