''One of those rare books that opened an escape door for me away from the worries of the present into a glorious story'' – Louise Douglas, bestselling author of The House by the Sea
1963: When Clara Samuels buys Butterfly Cottage, she knows the scandal she’ll cause. A single woman buying property is not the ‘done thing’, especially not in a village like Carybrook. But Clara has been in love with Butterfly Cottage, and its garden, since she used to play there before the War. And when she reconnects with her childhood friend James, her decision feels serendipitous. But the true scandal is yet to come, because within six months, Clara will leave England under mysterious circumstances, and Butterfly Cottage will stand empty for more than 50 years.
2018: No one is more surprised than Meredith when she’s bequeathed a cottage by a great aunt she’d never heard of. She hopes, briefly, that the inheritance could be the answer to her financial problems. But when she arrives in Suffolk, she is shocked to discover a man is already living there. A young gardener, who claims he was also bequeathed half of Butterfly Cottage.
As the pair try to unravel their complicated situation, they unearth a decades old mystery involving Clara, the garden, and a stack of letters left unread for over 50 years…

Their view on literature clash, leading to animated debates that breathe a new passion into her life, but will it be enough to thaw their frozen hearts? Furthermore, the bookshop is in financial trouble and Megan finds herself precariously poised, juggling the shop's survival with the flickering sparks of new love.
Amidst snow flurries and seasonal magic, "A Bookshop Christmas" promises to delight the hearts of bookworms and romantics alike.

Terri H, Reviewer - 5 stars
A lovely book to lose yourself in. Great characters and just the right amount of romance, a perfect read any time of year.
Jesse C, Reviewer - 4 stars
A sweet, wholesome Christmas book with a literary twist. Lots of fun references to famous and even contemporary romances and the narrator was so soothing. A perfect audiobook to get lost in
Kristen G, Bookseller - 5 stars
Christmas bookishness alights in this snowy romance as the main characters work through their own issues and begin to move on... with each other. The poignant plight of independent bookstores and the shared death of loved ones is balanced with the hilarious and historical Regency Christmas party and the romance book club to end all book clubs.
Rachel Burton has been making up stories for as long as she can remember and always dreamed of being a writer until life somehow got in the way. After reading for a degree in Classics and another in English Literature she accidentally fell into a career in law. Eventually, she managed to write her first book during her lunch breaks. Now she writes from a small bedroom looking out over hydrangeas, lavender bushes and rambling roses, in a little house in Yorkshire.
