The Redhead and the Bookstore (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798247337928)

Independent bookstore owner Peyton Kessler has watched every historic building in his neighborhood get flattened into glittery, high-end retail shops. Now his family's bookstore is in the crosshairs.

Enter Murphy O'Mara: a razor-sharp corporate attorney with a buyout offer, killer boots and a sassy smile Peyton can't stop bookmarking. Just as he's ready to close the book on her, he learns she's hiding a secret that ties her to the store, and the stories inside it. Now he sees a way to buy himself some time.

Then the ultimate plot twist walks in when a mysterious woman in black introduces herself as Death. She's on vacation, curious about humans, and asks Peyton to teach her about what it's like to live. And also to fall in love.

When the final chapter is read, who will survive? Peyton? The bookstore? Or the ending Death has been writing all along?
