A Rom Com taking place within the setting of an actual bookstore What could a reader ask forMaddie Hanson is a fledgling author preparing for the release of her very first novel She s also trying to keep her uaint little bookstore afloatShe s received a three star review for her upcoming first release from a gentleman nick named the Silver Fox Slightly miffed if not down right incensed she can t help but engage Mr Silver Fox Never a good idea But for Maddie it may just turn out to be the best thing that could happened to her Maybe he can help elevate her writing by adding a little extra soul and spice to her books by way of kindly reminding her what romance truly meansThis is a sweet and uaint Rom Com though I found it to be somewhat predictable If you re in search of a light lovely read that will put a bit of romance back in your life Look no furtherThank you to NetGalley Kensington Books and Mary Ann Marlowe for an ARC to read and review
