Be careful what you wish for.

SHE ALWAYS HAD HER HEAD IN A BOOK..

Never-married Maddy Lawrence, thirty-four-year-old librarian, was a virgin whose only adventures to date had been courtesy of the printed page. Her favorite fictional hero? Ace MacKenzie - bold swashbuckler, who could rescue the downtrodden and make women swoon, both at the same time.

.UNTIL HE WALKED OUT OF ONE

Maddy knew that there was no way that her real-life rescuer could really be her beloved Ace. But it was hard to believe that a mere flesh-and-blood man could take her on this adventure that had, incredibly, become the romance she had always dreamed of.

Sometimes the truth is stranger than fiction..
