This is a contemporary romance set in Marietta, Montana in late winter, around Valentines Day.  We are introduced to Taylor Harris who has recently moved from Hopeville after being offered a position at the library.  Books were here passion so this was a dream job, but until Margaret retired in the summer a lot of her ideas were put off.  She had lived her for 6 months and has made new friends.  Her best friend Jane has set her up for a date to the Valentine Ball celebrating the 100 year anniversary of the 1914 Wedding Giveaway.  Taylor lives a relatively quiet lifestyle and likes it that way so when Jane informs her that she has set her up with a blind date for the celebration she is not happy.  Troy Sheenan was named the town's "Most Eligible Bachelor".  He currently lives in California, but is from Marietta.  He has a soft spot for historical buildings and when the Graff Hotel in Marietta was put up for sale he bought it with the thought of bringing it back to it's former glory, but  unfortunately it had been a money pit. He was back in town for the Valentine Ball and to spend time with his dad who was having medical problems.  Troy is used to women throwing themselves at him, but when he meets Taylor the first time, there's something that intrigues him about her.  He wants to get to know her better, but at every step she keeps putting him off.A wonderful story that anyone would enjoy.  Taylor and Troy have so many difficulties to overcome if they want to find a happily ever after.  I became invested in this series after reading the first book.  Even though this book is a series, this book can stand alone.  The plot flows effortlessly and will quickly draw the reader in.  If you want to find love, you must be willing to take the first step.
