The Sweetheart List

A Novel

By: Jill Shalvis

Narrated by: Andi Arndt

What makes life sweet?

• Freshly baked bread
• A cool lake on a hot summer day
• The comfort of a cozy bookstore
• Second chances and new beginnings

When Harper Shaw’s life falls apart, she knows it’s time for a change. She removes everything that doesn’t spark joy—from her soul-sucking job to eating kale to making lists—and sets off for the last place she was happy, Lake Tahoe (who wouldn’t feel good there, right?) to fulfill her dream of opening her own bakery.

With her Sugar Pine Bakery in between a tavern, owned by sexy, grumpy Bodie Campbell, and a bookstore, run by her new BFF, she feels a peace she’s never experienced since…well, forever.. Then she meets Ivy, a teenage runaway, who barrels into her heart. She sees a lot of herself in Ivy and takes her under her wing, but the teenager has secrets…

When those secrets explode, it changes Harper’s new world, and she’ll learn, it’s never too late to start over, it’s never too late to figure out your life, and best of all, it’s never too late to let yourself believe in love.

Loved it!

Another great story by Jill Shalvis. She has a talent for creating real, relatable characters and writes the best dialogue.

Awesome

I loved this book beginning to end. I actually finished it in one day. Never a bored moment!

The sweetheart list

This book was OK definitely not bad, but it was very predictable. The characters were great and funny as always, but I guess this series hasn’t kept my attention as well as some of the others. The first two books in the series were great and very intriguing but this book was very predictable.

Lovely story

Nice to emerse yourself in a gentle story of based around kindness. Love the family including the dog

the trouble they all went through to get. to each other is so real life. we all struggle

I like how a homeless teen found family and friends. Also how loving was taught to Ivy by people who are flawed but full of enough love to share.
