“What a fun premise! To take a shy, reserved librarian and make her responsible for a singles night planned by her much more adventurous (and way less reserved!) co-worker is a recipe for laughs and they abound here in this sexy romantic novella. … I liked how the story evolved and Jack’s patience and perseverance in trying to prove to her that he’s worth breaking her resolution for. Very enjoyable, and I’m looking forward to the next in the series!” —Straight Shootin’ Book Reviews

What people are saying about My Reckless Valentine…
“One of the things that I love about Dade’s books is how her heroes and heroines can both be essentially nice and decent people and still have terrific conflicts with each other and land in supremely hard situations. I loved Angie—I love that she breaks the convention of the shy quiet librarians. She is brash, outgoing and vibrant. I loved that Grant is passionate in an unconventional way and more than anything steadfast and sincere.” —Immersed in Books

Driven to Distraction (Book 5 of the Lovestruck Librarians series)
Constance Chen is not the demure kind of librarian. Sure, her high-horsepower ride is Big Bertha the Bookmobile, but Con swears a blue streak, does her own home improvement, and wears steel-toed boots. She has a tight circle of friends, a demanding, beloved sprawl of a Chinese-American family, and a strict hookups-only policy when it comes to men. Her life is just how she wants it. Except for one maddeningly sexy footnote.
Sam Wolcott, her friend’s baby brother and the library’s IT star, has been throwing sparks with Con since he moved to town. To everybody else, he’s a thoughtful, sensitive sweetheart. To Con, he’s a cantankerous pedant, because if they don’t fight nonstop their clothes will spontaneously combust. Sam needs a commitment Con won’t—can’t—give. And neither of them will chance their hard-won bonds for pure lust.
Too bad Con and Sam have a whole week in a very tiny, very private space to sustain their dumb arguments. Alone. What happens in the Bookmobile might take their resistance right out of circulation . . .

Hidden Hearts (Book 6 of the Lovestruck Librarians series)
Mary Higgs could be the poster girl for the buttoned-up librarian. She follows the rules. Stays ʼtil closing. Her kindness and dedication to her patrons are legendary. But those patrons have no idea what she’s typing to the mysterious shut-in who emailed the library three months ago . . .
A year ago, Miles O’Connor was a 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 their desire grows and their horizons expand, the life that brought them together might not be enough for either of them . . .
