Joanna Green is less than enthused to be going back to her tiny hometown of Halikarnassus, New York, after her attempts at a career in rock and roll have flamed out. At least until she meets library director Liam Byrd, who might just convince her that being back in Halikarnassus isn't as bad as it appears.

A sweet contemporary romance. While the writing has a couple rough patches a good editor should have caught (repetitions of similar descriptions of places/characters pretty close together in the book), the story is charming enough to compensate. Joanna is a prickly but sympathetic character and Liam is an excellent librarian who really loves the small town library life, even if he does have to deal with a lot of wrangling with city council over his library budget. From the library side of things, I can definitely say the book is accurate (benefit of the author being a librarian as well). Recommended if romances involving libraries are one of your faves, like they are for me.… (más)
