The Lamplighter’s Bookshop by Sophie AustinRead about another entry on the list.
When Evelyn Seaton’s father gambles away the family fortune and the bailiffs come knocking, she finds herself suddenly penniless and humiliated, taking refuge with an aunt in York while the insufferable Lady Violet delights in her downfall. Determined to save herself and her mother, Evelyn secretly answers an ad for a bookshop assistant at the dusty, ramshackle Lamplighter’s Bookshop—only to find she’s not the only one who wants the job. William is a charming, enigmatic writer with secrets he’s not ready to share, and the competition between them slowly becomes something neither of them planned for. This historical romance is for anyone who has ever believed that a good bookshop is the best place to find exactly what you didn’t know you were looking for—including love.
