Ye Olde Book Shoppe and a bonus story too!

A reader's favorite story of the master storyteller, Mr. Paul John Hausleben, returns to print in a new version!

Ye Olde Book Shoppe is an enchanting romantic novelette within a Christmastime setting. Set in the old neighborhood of Harry and Paul's adventures, this story will touch and warm your heart, and fill you with Christmas spirit, while it transports you once more to simpler times.

Mr. Chadwick Ripplewood Jr. is a lonely bookshop owner who clings to his failing business of an old-fashioned bookstore set on a busy city street where it has been for close to fifty years. Struggling to get by amidst meager book sales and vast changes in the old city's environment, Chadwick holds his love of his precious books close to his heart and soul. When Chadwick meets the women of his dreams and falls deeply in love, his life seems to be finally taking a turn for the better, until despair hits when his livelihood is threatened by a wealthy businessman looking to gobble up all that is near and dear to Chadwick. To make matters even worse, the love of his life suddenly and rather mysteriously leaves him.

Ye Olde Book Shoppe will return the reader back once more to that special neighborhood in New Jersey, where the reader will be lost in a wave of holiday emotion, and meet more unforgettable characters.

This is one of Mr. Hausleben's finest moments, as he tells us this memorable story of romance and simple human emotions set within holiday enchantment.

Bonus Story!

The Last Roll on the Old Number Ninety-Five is the classic Christmas train story that tells the touching and emotional story of the Head Conductor of a passenger train and what happens to him on his final train ride before he retires after forty-six years of riding the rails. It just happens that the last ride is on a snowy Christmas Eve where a few special passengers, some glorious fate, and a touch of holiday magic return the conductor to a life and a spirit that he thought long since lost forever.
