This is the part 2 of the Little Shop series. Although I haven’t read the first book of the series, it didn’t really matter as the story was very cheesy and interesting to me.

Hope after her husband’s death returns to York and work at a shop called Little Shop of Hidden Treasures, a shop filled with ancient artifacts and treasures. In one such artifact, she comes across an Egyptian treasure that once belonged to a woman named Eleanor. And while working at the shop she meets two men–Will who is looking after his silent niece Brody after his parents’ death and Ciaran, a university professor she gets acquainted when working to find the secret of the Egyptian treasure.

This is such a cute, story and I actually enjoyed reading it. I do like the bit of a love triangle between Will, Hope and Ciaran even though in the end, I was rooting that Will and Hope will get together which they did in the end. The part about the Egyptian treasure and the story and history behind that treasure intrigued me and piqued my interest. Overall, this is was actually a cute, funny romance novel that will make you laugh and cry at the same time! Worth 4.5 stars! Looking forward to read more books from this series.

Many thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the ARC. The review is based on my honest opinion only.
