What the book has to say for itself:
With his pride and her
prejudice, what could possibly go wrong?
When the arrogant Blake Hansen steals Addie Preston's promotion at the library, he pretty much rubs her nose in it. But Addie, who dreams of being a full-fledged librarian, decides to stick it out. She loves surrounding herself with books and keeping her father's memory alive in the building where they spent so much time together.
Soon, Addie learns that her beloved library will be torn down to make room for a larger facility, and she has to make a choice. Fight, or let go?
To complicate things, she finds herself attracted to Blake, who is engaged to someone else. Will Blake and Addie ever resolve their differences?

What a cute story.
This was a fun retelling of Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen. Addie has had a pretty rough couple months in
this story. Her dad died in a car accident and the families financial situation
gets pretty rough, she doesn’t get the promotion she’d been expecting at the
library that was basically promised her earlier, and the guy who did get it seems
to be a pretty arrogant boss type guy. Her attempts to change the citiy leaders
minds about tearing down the building don’t work. She has problems with her
best friends brother who she’s been crushing on for years, and then her best
friend even gives her some stress. But through it all, Addie is a character you
can really love and get behind. She has some down moments, but it’s so
refreshing to read about a girl who has values, morals, and goals and will
stick to them no matter what. Her upbeat personality shines through and you
find yourself rooting for her. It’s a
very quit and easy read. A clean romance just like the Jane Austen version.
