Book Description
When she saw the man who rescued her from a stalker ex-boyfriend, librarian Phoebe Richards couldn't believe her eyes. Only in books—and in her fantasies—had she seen a sexy-as-sin man like Daniel Barone. He was everything a hero should be—brave, gorgeous, wealthy...and totally out of her league. Daniel Barone, international thrill seeker, thought he'd seen it all. But nothing had prepared him for the rush of Phoebe's guileless smile. Nothing shocked him more than the unfamiliar desire to stay with her. For the first time, Daniel felt real fear: Would he survive an affair with the innocent, bespectacled librarian?

Casanova Was a Librarian
Author: Kathleen Low
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 147660942X
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 185
Book Description
What do Casanova, Pope Pius XI, Benjamin Franklin and first lady Laura Bush have in common? At one time, all were members of the librarian profession. While librarians are often stereotyped as quiet, shy ladies who wear their gray hair in a dignified bun, that doesn't reflect the variety and diversity of today's library professionals. As of 2004, 159,000 people in the United States held the job of librarian. Although only 18 percent of that number was male, the median age for librarians was a young 47--far from the gray-haired, bun-wearing ladies of our imaginations! From pick-up lines to bumper stickers, this volume takes a light-hearted look at the many facets of the librarian occupation. Beginning with statistics, it enumerates gender divisions, personality types, salaries and educational requirements for various types of librarians including public, academic, school and special librarians. Other topics include specific occupational health risks, job-related recreation and novelty gifts for library professionals. Instances of librarians found in prose, poetry, film and musicals are also discussed.

Returning to England to find a school for one of his boys, Max seeks privacy in the isolated Malcolm library. But to Max's dismay, the old librarian dies, leaving Miss Wystan, a female, in charge. Before he can run far, far away, he learns the library tower is in danger of toppling, and his cousin is stealing from his mother's School of Malcolms.

Fascinated that his magnetism doesn't affect the one woman who can help him, Max must choose between his freedom and his family. In the process of helping others, Max and Lydia just might learn that sometimes, love is the secret that makes magic happen.
