Love on a Book Shelf by Kiah Thomas

I am always drawn to books that are about books so was quite interested in reading this novel. It was delightful.

Clarrie is trying her best to keep her grandmother’s bookshop open although it has not been easy. On one of her more difficult days, in walks author Declan. They snipe at each other a bit.

Fast forward to when Declan has a very successful novel out, and there are questions about who was the one to whom he dedicated it. It is a bit of a mystery.

But, the bigger mystery is the workings of love. Fans of the enemies to lovers trope will, I think, very much enjoy this one. Relax with this romance this summer, see how it goes, and brighten your day a bit.

This is Thomas’s first book for adults. I look forward to seeing what she writes next.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Headline for this title. All thoughts are my own.
