Michelle doesnβt believe in fairy tales. Sheβs a hard-headed businesswoman, making a fresh start in a new town. And when she decides to take over a neglected book shop, she knows the perfect manager.
For book-loving Anna, itβs a dream come trueβand not just because it gives her an escape from her three demanding step-children and their adorable but hyperactive Dalmatian. Although sheβs been thinking that her own fairytale ending hasnβt really turned out the way she hoped, Annaβs passion for the classics is transforming the shop. The customers, and even Michelle, are falling under the spell of the magical stories of romance, adventure, and lost dogs.
But when secrets from her past threaten Michelleβs new beginnings, and trouble strikes at the heart of Annaβs household, can the wisdom and courage of the stories in the bookshop help the two friendsβand those they loveβfind their happy ever after?
