If anyone can make her feel like the belle of the ball, it’s him

Taylor Harris – Marietta, Montana’s new librarian–is the quiet type who likes her glamour between the pages, but not in her own life. When she’s pushed into attending the formal Valentine Ball with Marietta’s Most Eligible Bachelor, Troy Sheenan, Taylor can’t imagine a worse pairing. What in the world would she have in common with a wealthy playboy like Troy?

Technology tycoon Troy is forced by business concerns to return to his hometown and take the town librarian to the Valentine Ball… what he doesn’t expect is that Taylor is even less excited about the prospect than he is! Intrigued by the only woman in town who wouldn’t be thrilled to take his arm at the big event, he’s determined that she will not just agree to be his date… but she’s going to like it. Can Taylor turn a cold shoulder to Troy’s heart-melting charms, or is this about to be Marietta’s hottest Valentine’s Ball yet?

From USA Today bestselling author Jane Porter comes an opposites-attract Valentine's Day tale complete with a small-town ball

Ratings and reviews

Exquisite story of adorably beautiful, unconditional, honest love between two gentle and good-natured individuals who are paired up unknowingly but later realise that they are really a match made in heaven!

I'm a book girl, so finding a book girl who gets her HEA appeals to me! Taylor is an intelligent librarian on track to be in charge when the head librarian retires. She's also the guardian for her brother who has emotional problems. New to town, she hides behind glasses and clothing she thinks she's supposed to wear to fit the job description rather than clothing that makes her comfortable in her job. Her friend sets her up to attend the ball with the hottest guy in town--Troy Sheehan! Troy's a Tech mogul and a playboy. He loves intelligent women and finds Taylor fascinating. Little by little, he gets her to come out of her shell and share her secrets with him. Turns out the playboy was waiting for a book girl like Taylor. Both have passion and understanding for protecting family. And, that's not the only thing they have in common! This is a fabulous story that warms the heart for all of us 'book girls!" Buy it, you won't be disappointed!

I agree that it was a good romance without being trashy, but also felt I would liked to have more of their story told.
