Description

Sometimes the last page is just the beginning… At fifty-four, Erin McRae feels like she's been living in the margins of her own story. Ever since she inherited her late mother's café, The Bookmark, she's been stuck in a comfortable routine. Her greatest escape is the mismatched book club she founded, bound together by one unusual rule: they choose their next book based solely on the last page.

But when a book's final words hit too close to home, Erin and her fellow members begin to see their own lives reflected in unexpected ways. As the club's discussions grow deeper, long-buried secrets surface, old wounds start to heal, and romance leaps off the page. With The Bookmark under threat of closure, Erin must ask: can she write herself a happier story?

A heartwarming novel about friendship, second chances, and the surprising ways stories shape our lives, perfect for lovers of Evie Woods, Sally Page, and Pip Williams.
