The Phoenix Rises

Dawn Jacobsen, shunned by her family for her career choice of being a librarian, also fares poorly in love and turns to romance novels for escape while she works hard at her job as a reference librarian. When the library starts taking interns, their first candidate from the local community college - a young man named Stern Rayner who is studying to be a Library Technician - strikes a chord with Dawn from their similar interests to the fact she does think him attractive even though he's twenty years younger. Dawn struggles with how to handle her feelings as she begins to wonder if she maybe isn't doomed to be a single, unmarried career woman forever. Though what begins as physical attraction evolves into more, Dawn's spontaneous choices are not without consequences.
