A summer romance with a bookstore at stake

Nantucket’s Little Bay Book Shack gives this romantic comedy a clear point of conflict: Jade Taylor takes a summer job managing the shop, only to discover that her new boss, resort owner Liam Haven, plans to knock it down. The bookstore’s fate ties the central romance to a local-versus-development struggle, while Jade’s love of books and Liam’s focus on real estate set up an opposites-attract dynamic. The story’s ingredients include a boss-and-employee relationship, friction between the leads, and the question of whether Liam can be persuaded to see value beyond property deals.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Romantic comedy fans interested in an opposites-attract pairing
  • Readers who enjoy workplace or boss-and-employee romances
  • Book lovers drawn to stories centered on independent bookstores and their survival

Book overview

☀️️

A sweet and sizzling summer romance about a woman who takes a job at a bookstore in Nantucket and gets involved with the man who turns out to be her boss: a billionaire bent on knocking the store down.

When book lover Jade Taylor applies to manage the Little Bay Book Shack on Nantucket Island over the summer, the last thing she needs is the distraction of billionaire resort owner, Liam Haven.

But things take an unexpected turn when Liam becomes Jade's boss--a man who only reads contracts for pleasure...

In a bid to save the bookshop from being absorbed into the Haven resort, Jade is determined to teach Liam that there's more to life than acquiring real estate. And if she can make him realize happily ever afters do exist, might she be able to save the island's bookshop in the process?

Perfect for readers who love:

  • Billionaire romance
  • Enemies to lovers
  • Boss/employee romance
  • Workplace romance
  • Opposites attract
