A woman desperate to turn a new page heads to the Scottish coast and finds herself locked in a battle of wills with an infuriatingly aloof bookseller in this utterly heartwarming debut, perfect for readers of Evvie Drake Starts Over.
Review:
I love this book- it charming, warm and cozy, and just what you need to give you a lift or Spring! Thea is a wonderful older character- full of charm and wit, who has a lot of bad circumstances thrown at her. Is it any wonder she jumped at a chance to run to Scotland? We'd do exactly the same! And that is the charm of this novel- it is so easy for the reader to picture themselves in Thea s place and understand why she makes the decisions she does, and to root for her to make a place for HERSELF in the yonder woods of Scotland, to forgo everything she thought she wanted, for something unexpected and comforting none the less. You'll want to run away to Scotland too after reading this book!
