The Friendliest Shop on Main: a sweet, small town romance

Rate this book
She's built a sucessful career from the ground up,
he's just trying to take care of his son...
neither are in the mood for love.


Shiloh Baxter is Lighthouse Bay's best realtor. Her spunky personality and wide smile are part of why she's called the "Friendliest" shop on Main. But when her roommate gets married, leaving her alone...she needs something to take her mind off the loneliness.

Buying a fixer upper was supposed to be easy, but Shiloh quickly realizes she's bitten off more than she can chew. When she calls on her friends to help, they bring along Granger Lowery. A handsome, single dad who seems to have a smile for everyone except Shiloh.

Granger doesn't have time for a pretty face. He trusted one years ago and now he's a single father with medical bills and alimony that are about to take him over the edge. His dwindling bank account is exactly why he took the job Jett McCoy offered, to work on a flipper home, but Shiloh's stunning looks and take-charge attitude and perpetual smile make him regret it immediately.

So when he ends up playing her fake boyfriend to keep a colleague at bay...Granger knows he's in real trouble. How is he supposed to keep his small family intact with Shiloh stealing both Granger's and his son's heart without even trying?

If you enjoy single dads and grumpy/sunshine interactions..."The Friendliest Shop on Main" is for YOU!

A wonderfully sweet story of finding acceptance and love.
How important is it to let people have a chance, not judging on first impressions or even assumptions? That is what Granger had done. He first saw Shiloh at a friend’s wedding and she reminded him of his ex. The ex who left him and their son when he was still a baby. He didn’t need someone like that again. But later when you are faced with no choice but to take a job she’s offering, what do you do? Especially if that baby is now six and is enamored with that same woman? Shiloh knows that few if any, can look beyond the way she was raised to really see her so she tries to protect her heart. Who knew a six year old would take over her heart so easily or that his dad would be so willing to rescue a woman in need? Plus his handsome father seems to be actually willing to see what she is really like. Mix in an obsessive stalker and you have a wonderful read.

Really enjoyed this HEA story of sassy Shiloh, gun shy Granger and his son Zane. Add in the twins from The Busiest Shop on Main and a nasty character and I’m happy to completely recommend this book. I received a copy of the book for free and this is my own opinion about it.

great book

I loved Shiloh in the last book. She is so full of life. I didn’t exactly like Granger at first. He is a great dad but very judgmental and grumpy. I did like the arc of the story and the growth the characters experiences. Zane is so cute and really adds to the story.

Wonderful story

Granger has been through one bad relationship and is a little shy when it comes to relationship. Shiloh and Granger had fireworks the instant they meet. They go through alot before they are together. It was a great book.

Shiloh, Granger and his son Zane make an interesting trio. Well actually it is Shiloh and Zane AND Granger and Zane NOT Shiloh and Granger - not at first anyway. Seeing him struggle with his attraction is quite comical to me but not so much to him or to Shiloh. Loved Jett and Tate!!! Please give them each their own books!!!! Watching Granger slowly change from grumpy to sappy was a sight to see. This book has so much including a bad guy. Great ending - so sweet.

Shiloh and Granger are wonderful characters. Their story is filled with humor, romance and suspense. I can't wait for Dalton's story.
