What is it about?
Emily has always believed in the magic of her father’s little bookstore in the heart of New York City. But as sales dwindle and the threat of closure looms, that magic feels harder to hold onto. Then Owen, a bestselling author with a reputation as dazzling as his stories, chooses their struggling shop for an unexpected book signing.
What begins as a business boost quickly becomes something more as Emily is swept into Owen’s world—and starts dreaming of her own life beyond the bookstore walls.
Can Emily protect her father’s legacy and begin to write her next chapter?
A clean romance novella.
