Love in the Library

Omtale

Can he read between the lines? Not many people like Julie Simpson, and the feeling is mutual. As a librarian at the Radcliffe Camera, Julie’s been happily married to the job she loves for thirty years. She has her cats and her best friend Maggie, and she’s perfectly fine with that. When the library shuts for refurbishments, Julie discovers that, without her work, she may not be so fine. Trying to establish some routine, she begins to visit the Botanical Gardens in the mornings where the relentlessly jolly gardener, Harrison Wills, insists on talking to her. Despite her initial attempts to avoid Harrison and just look at the flowers, when he offers to help Julie with her orchids, she experiences something she hasn’t since she was a teenager: butterflies. Can Julie find it within herself to let Harrison in? Or will this summer be spent waiting for the library to reopen? This charming, Oxford-set romance about finding love when you never thought you could is perfect for fans of Sue Moorcroft, Cressida McLaughlin and Jo Thomas.
