Cait is a bookshop owner and book nerd. Her social life revolves around her mobile bookselling service which hand-picks titles for elderly clients particularly the grandmotherly June. After a tough decade Book Fiend is the last bookshop in the central business district and the last independent retailer on a street given over to high-end labels. Profits are small but clients are loyal. When James breezes into Book Fiend Cait realises life might hold more than her shop and her cat - but while the new romance distracts her luxury chain stores are circling Book Fiend's prime location and a more personal tragedy is looming.
