Summary:
 Amanda is making the idyllic escape to the countryside to find a new life. Ben is picking up the pieces of his life after his wife left. Could a chance encounter outside Amanda's 'chic boutique' set them on the road to renewed happiness? Shop owner Amanda leaves London behind for life in the country and find's love with local vet Ben in this fun, addictive winner of the Prima Flirty Fiction competition 

 ***


The Chic Boutique on Baker Street is fresh and fast paced read about a woman trying to start a new life after a big delusion in her city life.
Amanda, the main character, is a very likable woman with a broken heart who decides to move to the rather traditional Westfield in search of a better and more comfortable life. After being a lawyer all her life, Amanda is very pleased with her craft shop, only it could be better is golden boy of town, Ben, the vet next door wasn’t stealing all her thoughts.

I really liked how this book was narrated, it felt simple and light. This book is told in various POVs, unraveling little by little about the characters’ past and what are the motivations behind their actions.
One of my favorite things about this book is the setting. Westfield comes to life in the actions of these eccentric and colorful characters, especially Agatha and her group of friends. They plan a variety of brilliant schemes to see Ben and Amanda together, even though they aren’t looking for love. And that was fun and fantastic to read.

The book is complete with some unexpected twists and turns and a very satisfying ending.
The only thing I didn’t like about The Chic Boutique on Baker Street, is the shifts in the POV, they somehow felt disorganized, like, they change in the same chapter in the most unexpected moment and sometimes it was difficult to know who was thinking what.
Except for that, The Chic Boutique on Baker Street is an enjoyable read that will please fans of romance and summer-like reads.
