Bookshop by the Sea by Denise Hunter

Sophie and Aiden were high school sweethearts. He gets an amazing opportunity to partner a new business in another town and expects Sophie to come with him.  But after her mother had fallen ill, Sophie stepped up to care for her and her two siblings.  Now her father had abandoned them all and it was impossible for Sophie to leave. Now seven years later,  Sophie is free to follow her own dream of owning a bookshop after her younger sister is finally married. The only problem: Aiden is a friend of the groom. Now she's just trying to survive the wedding and reception while avoiding her ex. But trouble comes when a hurricane hits, Aiden's flight is cancelled, and he takes shelter in the very beach house Sophie is staying.  Can she hide the feelings she still had for him until the storm passes?
I just can't resist a book about bookshops!  A sweet second chance romance story based around the remodeling of Sophie's new bookshop was just perfect. The only downfall was the spoiled and needy siblings taking advantage,  so I was glad Sophie finally stood up for herself!  I seriously couldn't put this one down.
