Summary

In the Scottish Highlands, a tiny bookshop perches on the edge of a loch . . .

Curl up and escape with Jenny Colgan  

Zoe is a single mother, sinking beneath the waves trying to cope by herself in London. Hari, her gorgeous little boy is perfect in every way - except for the fact that he just doesn't speak, at all. When her landlord raises the rent on her flat, Zoe doesn't know where to turn. 

Then Hari's aunt suggests Zoe could move to Scotland to help run a bookshop. Going from the lonely city to a small village in the Highlands could be the change Zoe and Hari desperately need. 

Faced with an unwelcoming boss, a moody, distant bookseller named Ramsay Urquart, and a band of unruly children, Zoe wonders if she's made the right decision. But Hari has found his very first real friend, and no one could resist the beauty of the loch glinting in the summer sun. If only Ramsay would just be a little more approachable...

Dreams start here . . .

I’m a huge fan of Jenny Colgan. I’m still listening to the audio version. Set in the beautiful scenery of Scotland and following Zoe’s tale, I didn’t want to put the book down at all! You won’t be disappointed!

Such a lovely book.

I enjoyed the story pace but some bad writing in places. Pop out less books and go for more accuracy I think

Good easy read I liked the Scottish setting
