My Review:

What a beautiful story, Jaimie has done herself proud with Book two on Ever After Street. I read part on the Kindle as I patiently waited for the Audible to be released. I loved mentions of renowned Romance Authors such as Heidi Swain, Jessica Redland and Holly Hepburn, the authors love for the online book community is clear and wonderful.

Marnie runs the Bookstore ‘A Tale As Old As Time’ with her cat Mrs Potts. In the times of Online Shopping the store is not doing incredibly well, and things get worse when she receives a letter about her messy garden.

The shop next door is run by the streets resident Beast ‘Darcy’ whom no one has seen without face coverings and has the temperament of a growling beast.

By some coincidence Marnie starts to befriend him by chatting in their respective gardens.

Whilst the book is very much about a love of books and developing friendships, can Marnie help her shop neighbour overcome his demons and anger?

Will he welcome the residents of Ever After Street into his life and more to the point will she manage to locate and invite her favourite Author U.N. Known to her book event?

Will her ex get the message that it’s over? So many questions, you’ll have to read this 5 Star read to get the answers, there are so many beautiful pay it forward moments and ways Marnie encourages friendships.

A tale as old as time…

Since her mum’s death, Marnie Platt has shut herself away from everyone who cares about her. Worse, her beloved bookshop on Ever After Street is suffering too. With sales down and the shop’s garden falling into disrepair, Marnie risks losing the very last thing she loves. Until a chance encounter with her surly and reclusive neighbour….

Dark and brooding, Darcy O’Connell likes to keep himself to himself. But when he hears Marnie needs help, he can’t turn his back on her. Soon they are spending most evenings together in her enchanted garden and a friendship starts to bloom…

With the help of old and new friends on Ever After Street, Marnie’s bookshop begins to thrive again, and with Darcy’s kindness, she starts to get her sparkle back too. She just can’t understand why Darcy continues to shut himself away – especially from her. Can she convince him it isn’t too late to embrace life, and maybe love, again?

Because every story, even theirs, deserves a happy ending….

Perfect for fans of Holly Martin, Kat French and Caroline Roberts!

She loves autumn and winter, and singing songs from musicals despite the fact she’s got the voice of a dying hyena. She hates spiders, hot weather, and cheese & onion crisps. She spends too much time on Twitter and will never have time to read all the books she wants to read.
