The Love Island Bookshop




A dream job, two handsome men, one destructive act. Will Freya’s opportunity of a lifetime end in tears?

When Freya leaves her publishing job in London to be a barefoot bookseller in the Maldives, it’s the push she needs to move on from her sadness and reignite her passion for life.

While resort owner Zander is charming, it’s handsome dive instructor Aaron who befriends her when she needs it most. But all is not what it seems and there’s trouble brewing in paradise.

Taking a chance on happiness is harder than she imagined. Can Freya let go of her heartache and allow herself to fall in love again?

My Review

Many years ago I saw a job advertised to run an exclusive bookshop in the Maldives. From time to time I've often wondered what it would have been like if I'd had the courage to apply for it. Thanks to this wonderful book, I now know. Imagine a luxury resort and the freedom to curate your own selection of books. It sounds every bit as idyllic as I imagined. For Freya it's also a dream opportunity and when she meets fellow employee Aaron, it seems life is as perfect as it gets. However, lurking beneath the surface of this piece of paradise lurk secrets, deception and a thrist for revenge. Freya's dream job is about to become a nightmare. 

I loved the storyline and the easygoing style means the book was finished all too soon. Really great sense of place and another location to add to my dream list.
