About this ebook

After inheriting her aunt’s bookshop in small town Michigan, a free-spirited young woman finds a love story in the stacks in this sweet romance novel.
 
While some women would jump through hoops to have their own bookshop, Gertrude “Trudy” Brown wants nothing to do with the rundown store her late Aunt Gertrude left her.  Having suffered from dyslexia all her life, books aren’t exactly her friends. And her memories of Truhart, Michigan, aren’t exactly happy. But now Trudy’s back in the tiny town, with little more than her pet collie and a rusty but trusty ’74 Beetle, determined to sell off her inheritance as quickly as possible . . .
 
But Trudy isn’t the only newcomer in town. Christopher “Kit” Darlington, a professor of American Studies at Cambridge, is searching for an elusive manuscript—and he secretly thinks Trudy’s ramshackle bookshop might hold the key to its discovery. As these two opposites spend the autumn days together, cleaning out Trudy’s bookshop, they soon find that uncovering both literature and love can be equally mysterious . . .

    One of the best books I have read! I am not sure if it was quirky dyslexic Trudy or upper crust British Kit or the old gentle collie or the feeling of if not coming home then perhaps finding home BUT I loved this story. The people in Truhart grew on me as they grew on Trudy and she grew on them. Kit was a delight and his belief that he could find what he was looking for were commendable as was the way he treated everyone – and especially Trudy. Much happened in this book that I enjoyed. I cared about the characters and wanted everything to work out for everyone – except for the not so great real estate agent Ms Sweeney and a judge that made an appearance. Truhart needs a financial shot in the arm and I hope that as the series continues it will be able to find a way to become more prosperous while maintaining the charm it has already. I can’t wait for book four and wonder who will appear next to have their story told. Thank you to NetGalley and Kensington Books for the ARC in exchange for my honest review.
