Two rival bookstore owners. One chance for a happily ever after
Bookshop owner Lexi Austens problems are stacking up. Her dating life is a mess and Sam Dickens devastatingly handsome, arrogant, and fiercely competitive rival bookshop owner is hellbent on stealing all of her customers.
Frustrated, Lexi turns to her shelves for answers. And what have the classics taught her That when lovers start as enemies, theres no distraction quite like love
Lexi plots to charm Sam: she invites him to a ball (well, a party), drags him to a dance class (does it matter if its not a quadrille) and swoons into his arms while taking a turn in the park (note: next time, make sure he isnt holding a hot drink).
As their rivalry reaches scorching levels, its not just Lexis beloved bookshop at stake, but her heart too
A charming, heartfelt bookish rom com, perfect for fans of Emily Henrys Book Lovers and Sally Thorne's The Hating Game.
To come
Mia Page is a pseudonym for Claire Handscombe, a British writer who moved to Washington, DC in 2012, ostensibly to study for an MFA in Creative Writing, but actually lets be honest because of an obsession with The West Wing. She is the author of two novels and the editor of Walk With Us: How The West Wing Changed Our Lives. Recently back in London after three happy years as a bookseller at East City Bookshop in DC, she also writes the If You Love That, Read This newsletter, and hosts the Brit Lit Podcast.
