Storybook Ending: The heartwarming and irresistible tale of finding love in a bookshop

The debut novel from Moira Macdonald, Storybook Ending is about a love triangle of sorts - a tribute to love, bookshops and Nora Ephron.

‘I so enjoyed Storybook Ending. It’s the perfect balance of cosiness and originality – warm, comforting, with a hilarious mix-up at its heart that I couldn''t wait to see unravel’ Beth O’Leary, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Flatshare

April is lonely. Since she started working from home, she''s lost herself a little. So, to break out of her funk, she leaves an anonymous note inside a book for the hot guy at her neighbourhood bookstore.

Laura is a busy single mum. By chance, she''s the one who finds April''s note, thinking it''s from the attractive man who served her at the bookstore. A little flirtation might be just what she needs.

Meanwhile Westley, handsome but not so perceptive, is too distracted by a movie filming at the shop to notice either woman''s furtive glances as they leave notes for each other amid the books.

Can these three characters create a storybook ending of their own?

An intricate web of miscommunication and serendipitous encounters, Storybook Ending is a playful tribute to romance, friendship and bookstores; and to the objects – from a forgotten slip of paper to someone’s heart – left between the pages of books.
