Publisher Description
A stubborn librarian. A grumpy billionaire. Three giant dogs. And a surprise blizzard. Nothing could go wrong here.
Isa Garren is determined to save her small-town library. As the head librarian, she's nearly secured a grant, but she's just missing one key thing…a collection of first-edition books. Lucky for her, she's learned that a local billionaire happens to have one. Unlucky for her, she hasn't heard back from him after countless attempts to contact him. But in an act of desperation, she's about to go knocking on his door.
Adam Wellington just wants to be left alone. If he's learned anything, it's that life is easier with only casual relationships. He's resigned to his solitary life. He certainly would never fall for a woman who shows up on his doorstep.
When an unexpected snowstorm, wreaks havoc on both their plans, these two enemies are forced to stay warm under the same roof. Will Isa be able to thaw Adam's frozen heart, or will these two opposites let their feelings for each other melt away when the clouds clear?

Storyview Falls, Small Town Meets Fairy Tale Retelling
3.5 Stars
I'm a sucker for the grumpy/sunshine troupe and Beauty and the Beast is one of my favorite fairytales, so clearly this was a must read.
This was a cute read with a little spice and some good banter. This author always writes sassy (and fierce) heroines, so it was no surprise the Isa is the ways she is. I had expectations of how Adam would be portrayed based on other retellings of this fairytale, and I was surprised, in a great way, that he didn't meet those expectations. The beginning of the story seems to fly by giving it intsa-love feels. While this is a rom-com, there were some really emotional moments that were heart breaking and heart warming. My only issue with this story is a subplot involving a takeover of Adam's company that I didn't understand how it played into the flow of the story, what it's purpose was because it really doesn't drive the story forward. I'm excited to see where this series takes us.
Rip my brain cells
Loved the plot idea but execution was horrible, poorly written I couldn’t even finish the book. I had a friend read as far as I did in the book just so we could talk about how awful it is.
Cute & Steamy
There’s tension, there’s comedy, there’s frustration, there’s cheesy, and there’s some rated x. Love how this story played out!
