Love may require breaking someone's heart. Even your own. After the death of her father, librarian Marian Fletcher wraps herself in a protective net of quiet control, few social gatherings, and routine. When Gill Gillespie, her high school crush, shows up as her new neighbor and then as her partner on an important work project, he helps Marian awaken to a larger life as well as to love. However, Gill is caught in a net of his own, bound by family expectations and a childhood girlfriend, a net he fails to see until it threatens his chances with the woman who has captured his heart.Modern Sleeping Beauty; Friends to Lovers; Reunion Romance; Contemporary Inspirational Romance
