The Beautiful Things Shoppe

The Beautiful Things Shoppe

Seasons of New Hope, Book 2

by Philip William Stover

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5


Some sneaky matchmaking by New Hopes own Uncle Arthur, forces opposites Prescott and Danny to find common ground in the Beautiful Things Shoppe!


Prescott is by the book and fond of all things classic and historical, while Danny is quirky and obsessed with collectibles and nostalgia. Their collections are as polar opposite as their personalities… but you know what they say about opposites - they attract!


All it takes is a some shared projects and their mutual respect and admiration for each others craft and abilities turns their sparing attraction into a relationship. But when Danny leaves out some big items from his past and Prescott’s ex shows up in New Hope… can Danny and Prescott collect up the peaches of their relationship and forge it back together?


I fell for this odd couple pairing from the first chapter! Their unique personalities were a great contrast and brought out the best in each other. 


I was also very excited to see Vince and Tuck show up form the previous book, The Hideaway Inn. The Beautiful Things Shoppe built up the the fictional New Hope further, but TBTS can totally be read as a standalone. Though, this series is a delight and I highly recommend both of these books!



As alway, Carina Press delivers the happily ever after I crave! I sweet read that I totally recommend!




The Beautiful Things Shoppe by Philip William Stover is scheduled was released January 26th, 2021.


I received a complimentary copy of this book from Harlequin and the Harlequin Publicity Team. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

A Duke for Miss Townsbridge The Townsbridges, Book 4 by Sophie Barnes ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 Sophie Barnes is a master at the novella! Every time I read one of her novellas, it is just perfect! Characters that are developed and graphics you, quick flowing plots to move the story and an ending to delight! As a duke, Matthew believes he should be able to marry anyone he decides on… and he decides that the perfect bride to fit into his unconventional life is his neighbour, Sarah. Since Sarah has never even met Mathew before his proposal, she decides that a courtship is needed before she make up her mind! I was was immediately invested in the non-traditional courtship between nearly on the shelf Sarah, and her reclusive duke for a neighbour Matthew. The determination and genuine personalities of both characters carries this book off effortlessly and would leave me wanting for more if the story had not been finished up so neatly! I adore a good romance novella and liken it to the perfect bite ...

Fans of the Countess of Harleigh Mystery series will be happy to hear that before any murder took place Lady Harleigh and Mr Hazelton were married with all their friends and family in attendance! But there was definitely a murder mystery discovered before the end of the wedding breakfast! This was such a treat! As a series fan I was so happy to see Francis and George finally get married and now as Mr. and Mrs. Hazelton continue their detective work. These two are the ideal Victorian era couple goals. They easily work together on mutual goals and know how to play up each other’s strengths, while compensating for any weaknesses. They are definitely better together!
