Hidden Hearts

Olivia Dade2017
AN ADMIRER WITH A SECRET . . . Mary Higgs could be the poster girl for the buttoned-up librarian. She follows the rules. Stays 'til closing. Her kindness and dedication to her patrons is legendary. But those patrons have no idea what she’s typing to the mysterious shut-in who emailed the library needing a library card three months ago . . . When the elusive Miles O’Connor shows up, he’s no invalid. A year ago, he was the gleaming, ab-sational star of the small screen. Then came the accident. Now he’s a wounded recluse with a pizza habit and fears so unshakable that only the thought of losing Mary to an online date could lure him out of his cabin. Soon their email rapport has turned into weekends on the couch, watching tearjerkers and driving each other insane with red-hot makeout sessions. But as the desire grows and their horizons expand, the life that brought them together might not be enough for either of them . . . “Love is never out of reach for the librarians of the Nice County Library System . . . Sarah's charm and humor are perfectly suited to a beach read.” —Publishers Weekly on Ready to Fall

Mary, a kind hearted librarian, connects with elusive Miles, a celebrity carpenter struggling to adjust after an incident has left him without an arm a few months ago, via email, following his need for a library card from her place of employment.

— A very darling and charming read; both characters are absolute sweethearts, their relationship being one full of healthy communication and compassion. Both struggle with their own insecurities and body image issues, but find great love and acceptance with each other.

I particularly loved reading about Miles and his struggles to accept his new reality, dealing with his new disability and body and the grief and pain that comes from such a life adjustment.

A very easy read despite the seemingly heavy themes. Truly enjoyable.
