Image
  Absorbing, Adventurous, Intriguing Contemporary Fiction/Family Drama/Romance One Greek Summer by Kate Frost - Author Harlow was required to fly out to a job in Greece, on the Island of Skopelos. She was aware that she had been second choice and strings had been pulled, but it would be good experience...if, and it was a big ‘if’ she wanted to stay working in the industry, which she wasn’t even sure of. She’d persevered with it over the years, operating in various roles, and was now taking what would be seen as a lesser position, something that she knew she would have to defend, the question was how??

  Engaging, Entertaining, Intriguing Contemporary Fiction/Romance Love Letters at the Borrow A Book Shop by Kiley Dunbar Austen Archer can’t believe her luck when she spots the advert to apply to own a bookshop and cafe for two weeks in a seaside village in Devon. She has loved books since she was a child, and had a particular penchant and affection for poetry. However, following an unfortunate incident that had taken place a year ago, she hadn’t been able to write a thing. She hoped that some time to herself, somewhere new, would perhaps evoke her imagination and her muse would once again return. However, not only was Austen about to rekindle her love of the written word but she was also about to get the chance to bring closure to her past and create a new and exciting future. Obviously, the word ‘bookshop’ was what drove me to this novel, which opens with the advert that Austen has come across.
