Welcome to the
Happy Hartes Bookshop in Micklewick Bay on the beautiful North Yorkshire Coast!
The Happy Hartes Bookshop has been a part of bookworm
Florrie Appleton’s life as far back as she can remember. From the evocative
smell of the books, to working alongside her beloved Mr H and his black
Labrador, Gerty, there’s no wonder she calls it her happy place.
Living in a town she loves, with her family and group of
close-knit friends nearby, life is sweet. Until one dreadful Monday morning,
when everything is turned upside down and things are changed forever.
Devastated, Florrie finds herself thrown into an unexpected
situation with handsome stranger, Ed Harte, owner of a pair of twinkly
navy-blue eyes and a smile that has the knack of making mischief with her
insides.
Despite being fresh out of a relationship, Florrie
quickly finds herself falling for him, but she’s torn, reluctant to give her
heart to someone who seems intent on not sticking around.
While her heart’s doing battle with her head, Florrie
soon finds herself privy to a secret with Ed involving a heart-wrenching twist
they could never have imagined.
Will love find a
way to bring them together, or are they destined to go their separate ways?

Oh my heart! Thank you Eliza for this lovely story.. I was
engrossed from start to finish and I’m so happy we get more in a series – so many
fab characters I already can’t wait to see more of.
I am a huge fan of all of this authors books, the settings
are always so idyllic and make me want to move and make friends with all the
brilliant characters we meet. Happy Hartes Bookshop in Micklewick Bay on the
North Yorkshire Coast is now top of my list for fictional places to live (and
what I wouldn’t give to work in the bookshop!)
When Florrie’s world is tipped upside down before she is
able to help Mr H reconnect with his long lost Grandson, a chance encounter leads
to surprising news and exciting prospects. Florrie is desperate to honour Mr H and
ensure the bookshop stays put. An unexpected revelation leads to Florrie having
to believe in herself a little more and also put trust in someone who is still
a virtual stranger. Can she put her trust in Ed?
I love Florrie, how she cares for those in her life and she
is completely happy with the life she’s leading and the home she’s created. Her
passion and devotion to the book shop is evident from the off. The spark
between her and Ed is clear from the start and of course we want the romance,
but as always obstacles can put a stop to any potential love interests.
Well written with funny, light hearted moments as well as
emotional, heart felt ones. I love Florrie’s group of friends she hangs out
with – Jasmine, Stella, Maggie and Lark, they have her back and support her with
everything.
I will recommend this one wholeheartedly, it’s a fantastic
read and a great start to a series!
Eliza is inspired
by her beautiful surroundings and loves to write heartwarming romance stories
with relatable female characters. Her books will always have a happy ending.
