Can't-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted at Wishful Endings, to spotlight and discuss the books we're excited about that we have yet to read. Typically they are books that have not been released yet. This week I am sharing The Bookseller's Promise by Beth Wiseman. It is the first book in The Amish Bookstore series, it releases April 19, 2022.
About the book: (from Goodreads):
In the first novel of Beth Wiseman’s new Amish Bookstore series, a rare, old book may hold answers to a present-day romance.
Yvonne
Wilson arrives in Montgomery, Indiana, determined to purchase a rare
book on behalf of a client willing to pay her an absurd amount of money
for her efforts. Engaged to be married in a few months, Yvonne is thrown
off guard when she finds herself attracted to the handsome bookstore
owner, Jake Lantz—and now she’s asking herself unexpected questions
about her future.
Jake Lantz made a promise to his grandfather to
never sell the book Yvonne wants to buy, and it’s a promise he plans to
keep. Jake begins to read the book with Eva, one of his employees, and
Eva sees this time together as a way to get Jake to see her in a new
light. Eva’s loved him for years but senses Yvonne’s attraction to Jake
right away—and she wonders how Jake feels about Yvonne, an attractive
English woman determined to stay in Montgomery until she convinces Jake
to sell the rare book.
As Yvonne’s, Jake’s, and Eva’s individual
paths merge into something more than they could have imagined, each must
face decisions they never anticipated. Will Jake ultimately break his
promise to his grandfather? Will Yvonne leave the quaint life she’s been
living in Amish Country to go back to her fiancé? And will Eva be able
to get Jake to see her as more than a friend? The answers just might be
buried within the pages of a rare book.
