Review: The Bookshop of Second Chances by Jackie Fraser



Blurb from Goodreads:
Thea’s having a bad month. Not only has she been made redundant, she’s also discovered her husband of nearly twenty years is sleeping with one of her friends. And he’s not sorry – he’s leaving.
 
Bewildered and lost, Thea doesn’t know what to do. But, when she learns the great-uncle she barely knew has died and left her his huge collection of second-hand books and a house in the Scottish Lowlands, she seems to have been offered a second chance.
 
Running away to a little town where no one knows her seems like exactly what Thea needs. But when she meets the aristocratic Maltravers brothers – grumpy bookshop owner Edward and his estranged brother Charles, Lord Hollinshaw – her new life quickly becomes just as complicated as the life she was running from...
My Review:
I really enjoyed this book -- such a feel good book in a delightful Scottish setting!  I immediately connected to Thea and adored reading about her new life working in a bookshop in a small Scottish town. I will say this was a bit longer than most other books in this genre but it wasn't wasted on me.  If you are looking for a book to make you feel good with some romance, reinvention and 💓, this is the book for you!!

The Bookshop of Second Chances comes out next week on May 4, 2021, you can purchase HERE!  I really loved this one and definitely recommend it!
Yesterday was Valentine's Day. Three weeks since I lost my job--made redundant and turned out of my office with no notice--and ten days since my husband Chris, henceforth known as "that bastard," left me.
