Much Ado About You

by Samantha Young

Christina’s 4 Blush Review

This is my first Samantha Young book! How and WHY did I wait so long to read this author? I honestly could not be more excited to have found a new-to-me author with tons of books to power through. Much Ado About You was adorable and sweet, with moments of steamy swoonyness that had me fanning my kindle to cool it off!My favorite parts of this story centered around the English Village and bookstore that are front center. It’s been a really long time since I read a book with such strong, meaningful supporting characters with brilliant storylines of their own. I’m hoping we’ll get more of these intriguing friends of Roane’s and Evie’s.

What can I say about Roane and Evie? I looooved how swoony Roane was at times. Evie was a great female character but at times, her personality irked me. It was no matter, because by the end I really loved these two. The twist at the end left me wanting to read more about what their lives would be like and I’m hoping at some point, Samantha Young revisits Roane and Evie in someone else’s storyline. Highly recommend!!

Synopsis

The cozy comforts of an English village bookstore open up a world of new possibilities for Evie Starling in this charming new romantic comedy from New York Times bestselling author Samantha Young.

At thirty-three-years old Evangeline Starling’s life in Chicago is missing that special something. And when she’s passed over for a promotion at work, Evie realizes she needs to make a change. Some time away to regain perspective might be just the thing. In a burst of impulsivity, she plans a holiday in a quaint English village. The holiday package comes with a temporary position at Much Ado About Books, the bookstore located beneath her rental apartment. There’s no better dream vacation for the bookish Evie, a life-long Shakespeare lover.

Not only is Evie swept up in running the delightful store as soon as she arrives, but she’s also drawn into the lives, loves, and drama of the friendly villagers. Including Roane Robson, the charismatic and sexy farmer who tempts Evie every day with his friendly flirtations. Evie is determined to keep him at bay because a holiday romance can only end in heartbreak, right? But Evie can’t deny their connection and longs to trust in her handsome farmer that their whirlwind romance could turn into the forever kind of love.
