The Second Story Bookshop by Denise Hunter

Why would Gray be at the reading of Gram's will?

Gray was Shelby's long-departed boyfriend and the pariah of the small town.

He said he was here because the attorney invited him, and everyone found out why.

Gray had inherited 49% of the bookshop.  How can that be?

Shelby made Gray sign a form that had him giving up his share and giving her full ownership.

She did agree to allow Gray stay on to check the books, and he finds finds that the bookshop is in deep debt.

Gray offers to help her get the bookstore profitable and out of debt with some changes, but how will that work out since they both still have feelings for each other after all these years?

We get to go back to their teenage years to see how everything played out, and  to present day as the town still doesn't want Gray there and neither does Shelby.

See what happens in this sweet, emotional read about books, forgiving, and relationships.

I enjoyed my first read by this author.  5/5

Thank you to the publisher for a copy of the book.  All opinions are my own.
