The village shop for lonely hearts




The Village Shop For Lonely Hearts
A feel-good story of new beginnings set in a gorgeous country village, perfect for fans of Katie Fforde and Milly Johnson.

After losing her job in New York, Amber Green isn’t looking forward to visiting her godmother in the sleepy village of Cranbridge. With its empty lanes and rundown shops, it’s hardly a place to mend her lonely heart.

But when Amber discovers that Cranbridge Stores, owned by her godmother Cathy and son Josh, is under threat of financial ruin, she realises that her skills as a window dresser might just be able to help save the struggling shop.

When disaster strikes, Amber and Josh must unite to save both the shop and the village from flooding.

Can Cranbridge Stores become the heart of the village once more?

And as the village begins to come back to life, perhaps Amber will discover a reason to stay…

My Review

I enjoy Alison's writing and this book has stayed with me for several reasons; not only is it well-written but the story is set in a village shop that faces financial ruin. I can totally relate to the story and the characters as the reader is immersed from the start. The subplot of Amber's parents is also insightful, reminding us that sometimes what we need is not what we think want and is often closer to home. All in all, a lovely story that will transport you to a sleepy village. After New York though, will it be enough to keep Amber there?
