No Offense: A Novel (Little Bridge Island #2) [9780063007123]

Overview

New York Times-bestselling author Meg
Cabot returns with a charming romance between a children's
librarian and the town sheriff in the second book in the Little Bridge
Island series.

Welcome
to Little Bridge, one of the smallest, most beautiful islands in the Florida
Keys, home to sandy white beaches, salt-rimmed margaritas, and stunning sunsets—a
place where nothing goes under the radar and love has a way of sneaking up when
least expected... 

A broken engagement only gave Molly
Montgomery additional incentive to follow her dream job from the Colorado Rockies
to the Florida Keys. Now, as Little Bridge Island Public Library’s head of
children’s services, Molly hopes the messiest thing in her life will be her
sticky-note covered desk. But fate—in the form of a newborn left in the
restroom—has other ideas. So does the sheriff who comes to investigate the
“abandonment”.  When John Hartwell folds
all six-feet-three of himself into a tiny chair and insists that whoever left
the baby is a criminal, Molly begs to differ and asks what he’s doing about the
Island’s real crime wave (if thefts of items from homes that have been
left unlocked could be called that). Not the best of starts, but the man’s
arrogance is almost as distracting as his blue eyes. Almost… 

John would be pretty irritated if one
of his deputies had a desk as disorderly as Molly’s. Good thing she doesn’t
work for him, considering how attracted he is to her. Molly’s lilting librarian
voice makes even the saltiest remarks go down sweeter, which is bad as long as
she’s a witness but might be good once the case is solved—provided he hasn’t
gotten on her last nerve by then. Recently divorced, John
has been having trouble adjusting to single life as well as single parenthood. But
something in Molly’s beautiful smile gives John hope that his old life on
Little Bridge might suddenly hold new promise—if only they can get over their
differences. 

Clever, hilarious, and
fun, No Offense will tug at readers’
heartstrings and make them fall in love with Little Bridge Island and its
unique characters once again.
