Summary :
Jenny Colgan's new event series! What if this little bookstore in the Scottish Highlands was the secret to happiness and a new life? An exciting feel-good book!
- Christmas at the charming bookstore: Carmen is staying with her sister Sofia in Scotland for Christmas. But Carmen, who has just lost her job at a department store, isn't exactly thrilled at first at the prospect of moving in with her perfect sister, with her perfect children and her perfectly orderly, comfortable life. And, to be honest, Sofia doesn't really want to see her either. But then Sofia is expecting another baby; and between their mother desperately wanting them to get along and one of her customers needing help revitalizing his old bookstore, Carmen decides to make an effort. She finds herself thrust into the inner workings of Mr. McCredie's old bookstore, deep in the picturesque streets of historic Edinburgh. It must be said that while the shop may be dusty and disorganized, it's undeniably charming. Can she breathe new life into it in time for Christmas shopping? And wouldn't the famous and charismatic author, who suddenly takes an interest in the bookstore, be a little charmed by it? The Christmas spirit will tell us... - The Charming Bookstore of Distant Loves: They live 800 km apart. Yet their lives are about to collide... Lissa loves her job as a nurse, but lately, she's been caring more for others than for herself. After a traumatic incident at work leaves her devastated, she agrees to swap lives for three months with a stranger who lives in a quiet Scottish village. Cormac is impulsive. Fresh out of the army, he desperately needs distraction, and there's little to be found in Kirrinfief. Perhaps three months in London is just what he needs? As Lissa and Cormac adjust to their new lives, exchanging messages about everything and anything, things finally seem to be falling into place. But each of them feels there's still a missing piece to their lives. What—or who—is it? What if the puzzle piece is currently exactly 800 km away from everyone? - The charming bookstore of the tranquil waves: Zoe is a desperate single mother. She wants to leave London and build a new life with her son Hari. Between the tiny studio apartment she can barely afford and the car horns keeping them awake, Zoe feels like she's about to explode. On a whim, she answers an ad for a nanny job in the Scottish Highlands. The job description calls for someone capable of caring for three "gifted children," two of whom behave like small wild animals. The widowed father is a wreck, and the children run wild in a vast ruined castle on the heather-strewn banks of Loch Ness. With the help of Nina, the friendly local bookseller, Zoe begins to put down roots in the community. Will books, fresh air, and kindness be enough to heal this broken family? - The charming bookstore of happy days: Nina is proud to work at the Birmingham Library, but she realizes that instead of living among the books she loves, she spends most of her time in the back room working on computers. Everything that brought her joy has disappeared and she misses terribly: contact with people, chatting with the regulars, making sure that each reader will find the book that suits them... That's when she responds to a slightly crazy project. What if she set up a small traveling bookstore in the Scottish Highlands? A tiny stock of books, but no computer! And who knows, despite the bitter cold, maybe she will find a new meaning to her life in this warm community?
