Second chances never go out of style . . .
Sophy Stevens has just turned thirty and found herself unexpectedly out of a job and out of a relationship. Now she's desperate for Something Different, and Australia where she can connect with the grandparents she's never met and maybe fall in love with a sexy surfer is the perfect answer . . . if she can save up the money for the plane ticket.
So when her feckless, absent dad Johnno offers her a job at his vintage clothes shop in Primrose Hill, she can't turn it down, even though she doesn't want to be surrounded by clothes that people have probably died in. At least it will only be for a few months, which is just as well because Sophy and Phoebe, the shop's snooty manager, aren't destined to be best friends.
But while Sophy might not see the attraction of a 1930's evening gown, gorgeous jewellery dealer, Charles Radley has certainly caught her eye...
My Opinion
The Vintage Dress Shop in Primrose Hill is being released in four parts. This is the first part. As this is only the first part of the book it is a very quick read, but it is a great introduction of what is to come in the upcoming parts. Sophy has been having a bad time recently as she is recently single and has lost her job with no warning. Her father offers her a job working at his vintage dress shop in Primrose Hill - even though she doesn't know a lot about vintage dresses.
This was a lovely book to read and I cannot wait to read the second part.
Rating 4/5
