Bookish

By: Bernadette Marie

Narrated by: Whitney Dykhouse

In the heart of a small town, two authors discover that the greatest story is their own.

Emma Reynolds has spent her life lost in the pages of other people’s love stories. As the owner of The Reading Nook in the charming town of Pine Haven, Colorado, she sells happily-ever-afters by the dozen—she’s just never had her own. In her fifties, she’s convinced love isn’t in the cards for her, and her dreams of publishing a romance novel are tucked away like forgotten bookmarks.

Enter Noah Carter: broody, bestselling suspense author and reluctant literary royalty. Still mourning the loss of his wife, Noah arrives in Pine Haven for his publisher’s lavish literary event, determined to keep to himself and avoid the whispers of fame. What he doesn’t expect is Emma—the witty, passionate bookseller who challenges everything he thought he knew about second chances.

When two worlds—one quiet and book-filled, the other loud and full of expectations—collide, sparks fly. But with Noah's life rooted in New York and Emma's heart tied to her small-town sanctuary, can they write a new chapter together?
