Book Lovers
- Free same-day curbside collect.
A sharp, witty love story about books, ambition, and discovering that the life you planned isn't always the one you're meant to live.
Nora Stephens has built her life around books. As a successful literary agent, she's the person everyone relies on—except herself. When her younger sister convinces her to spend a month in a small North Carolina town, Nora expects charming cafés, picturesque streets, and perhaps the chance to reinvent herself.
Instead, she keeps running into Charlie Lastra, a brooding editor from New York she already knows far too well.
As old assumptions begin to unravel, so do the carefully crafted stories they've been telling themselves. What follows is a clever, emotionally layered romance filled with razor-sharp dialogue, genuine vulnerability, and two people learning that love rarely follows the plot we expect.
Warm, funny, and surprisingly thoughtful, Book Lovers is Emily Henry at her best—a novel for readers who love books as much as they love unforgettable characters.
Perfect for fans of Abby Jimenez, Carley Fortune, Annabel Monaghan, and character-driven contemporary fiction with equal parts wit and heart.

A Note about Shipping
Willow Creek has always been rooted in an in-store experience, and our online shop has grown as an extension of that atmosphere. Many of our pieces are delicate, oversized, or uniquely shaped, so shipping can look a little different from item to item.
Some pieces may show as pickup-only at checkout due to size or fragility. If you have a question about a specific item, you’re welcome to reach out, and we’ll let you know what’s possible.
Thank you for giving us the room to continue shaping what online shopping looks like for our small shop.
Seasonal Shipping Update
With Canada Post experiencing rotating strikes and unpredictable delays, we’ve begun sending online orders through more reliable courier services when needed.
Courier pricing is noticeably higher, so we’ve updated our flat-rate shipping to reflect the current landscape while still absorbing part of the cost on our end.
We’ve also paused free shipping for now. This helps keep things sustainable for our small shop during a season when delivery across Canada is more unpredictable than usual.
Thank you, as always, for your support.
