Campbell Harrison is obsessed with books. So, when she quits her day job, leaving behind her dysfunctional family, and decides to move to a small town where no one knows her and she knows no one, she breathes relief for the first time in years. With plans to open up a brick and mortar bookshop, she gives up most of her life's savings to sign a year-long lease on a space in an old building downtown. She doesn't think twice about it. It's been her dream for as long as she can remember and now is not the time to start second guessing her decision to move. But shortly after, Campbell realizes she may have bitten off more than she can chew, even with the town's support in her little, but big dream. When the charming Bishop Graham, a veteran-turned firefighter with a past he'd rather not talk about, shows up on the stoop of her bookshop late one night at closing, Campbell all but dismisses him as an annoying customer. But the more she sees him around the small town, the more curious she becomes about who he is, and why he too came to this middle-of-nowhere town to escape. With just a few months left on her lease and the holidays quickly appreaoching, Campbell has been dreading some big conversations. What is her next step? What is it exactly is it she's been running from? Where does the bookshop stand when her lease is over? With growing anxiety and anticipation over what is to come, Campbell finds herself longing for a sign that she is exactly where she is meant to be.

Dating can be a scary business, a minefield of potential embarrassment, rejection and humiliation, but you only have to look at the people who have succeeded to see that it's not impossible. Luckily there are rules to make the game easier to follow and play. Like with the laws of anything from rugby to Scrabble, these were invented to ensure that everyone got a fair chance and, assuming they played the game fairly, could end up with something more than just a wooden spoon and a patronising pat on the head. So whether you're a boy or a girl, an asker or an askee, a blind-dater, speed-dater orjust a no-hope-dater, here's an easy-to-follow guide to the perils of dating.

Are you IN FOR THE LONG HAUL? RULES are meant to be broken... Your favorite bookseller returns in a heartfelt and sentimental sequel of Rules for Dating a Bookshop Owner. You won't want to miss this heartwarming story of what it truly means to be able to enjoy the little things in life. Especially during the holidays. It's Christmastime, and a year after a terrible fire ripped through a staple in the sleepy town of Salter's Ridge, Maine, Campbell Harrison decides to take on a full renovation of the building that houses her beloved bookshop. Turning Pages is doubling in size and will be better than ever. But at what cost? While the entire town stands beside her rooting her on, Campbell begins to feel the overwhelming pressure she's possibly bitten off more than she can chew. Still, she has one thing going right for her: A solid and steady relationship with the small town's newly-appointed fire captain, Bishop Graham. Together, they seem to have it all. But with the stress of a big job promotion and the accelerated growth of the bookshop at an exponential rate, all while balancing a large project together, both are starting to feel a mountain resting on their shoulders. When a planned road trip out of town to take a break from it all doesn't go off without a hitch, they unexpectedly head back to Salter's Ridge. But, maybe a staycation in a cozy white cottage with full bookshelves and an outdoor fireplace by the icy harbor doesn't sound so bad after all. With secondary plans to hunker down in the first big snowstorm of the season, a Christmas alone for the first time, just the two of them with no outside distractions, may be just what they need to find that connection they had when they first met. Lots of big questions are explored in this novel of love for many things, including our life's work: What is important to you? Where do you seek happiness? Are you being intentional with the life you are living or are you just coasting along? S. C. Gray is back again with a page-turner that is sure to have you highlighting and discussing with your book clubs all over again.
