My Review: I had a great time reading this funny, warm and community minded book. It’s told from the perspectives of Lily and Rupert. Lily the librarian is desperate to save her community garden. Rupert is under instruction to develop the land on behalf of his grandfather, who is a very pushy energy. Lily and her friends come together to try and save the land. I could see this as a Hallmark movie, it’s that cute. I enjoyed meeting all the different characters and friends. I loved the name of the local book shop and cafe. Banter and Books. I recommend this book, it’s an easy to follow read.

My Book Boyfriend

Tall, dark and handsome. That’s what I thought the first time I saw Rupert Evans in the library.

But then I found out he was the developer who just sent my community garden a cease-and-desist letter because he plans to raze the garden and construct some towering monstrosity there.

The only one who is going to cease and desist is him. That community garden is my found family.

But then he asks me out at book club night.

Suspicious, right?

I’m attractive but I’m not the type hot bachelors are lining up around the block to ask out. Let’s be real. I’m still in the brunch date spot with my next-door neighbor after a year of my pursuing him.

Rupert is trying to butter me up and lead me down the garden path so I concede. Never. 

He has no idea what we’ve planned to stop him. Our little community group may look like a bunch of frail roses, but we’ve got thorns. As long as I weed out these pesky feelings for him, I know we can win.
