The Village Shop For Lonely Hearts by Alison Sherlock-Womens contemporary fiction
Amber has arrived near her old home. She has just left New York having been made
redundant from her shop window dressing position at Saks fifth avenue. She is heading
to New Zealand where her parents are. She has stopped off on her mother's request
to stay a few days with her godmother- her mother's best friend Cathy. She and her
son Josh run the village shop. Unfortunately this is now rammed full of random stock
that Cathy's husband bought before he died. Josh and his brother have bailed the
shop out once unbeknown to their mother and it looks like it is heading that way again.
Every aisle is filled so customers can’t see what is there and the shop is dark and
dismal. Cathy won;t hear a word against it and has daily rows with Josh as he wants
to update it, they don’t even have card payment. Amber volunteers to dress the
windows- a step forward. When Cathy heads off to visit mbers parents things
change even more. I really enjoyed this. A little romance, a potential disaster,
in fact many things- things that life throws at us and we have no choice but
to deal with them. A heartwarming read with a smile.
