This novel was previously published as Stop By: The Millionaire and the Librarian - He is Red Hot, and She is True Blue: A Romantic, Sentimental Love Story by Cullen, Jean-Thomas (author). Richard Moyer, 32, is a hard-working young millionaire with a rocky background and a brilliant future. Marian Charles, 28, is a beautiful but tragic young war widow. Each is between loves--alone, and quietly sailing toward the unknown. Marian finds refuge as a small-town New England librarian. Among her duties, she is the primary story reader for K-2 children, and we find her innocently telling the fairy tale of Sleeping Beauty and the handsome Prince who comes to waken her from her deep sleep. Little does she know (or does she suspect?) that she herself is a sleeping beauty waiting for her Prince Charming to come along and kiss her back to a happy life. Rick races between New York City and other financial centers, closing pricey business deals. He has a bitter, cruel divorce behind him, which has shattered his trust in women and made him cautious. Handsome and wealthy as well as smart and decisive in business, he can have any woman he wants. As he dates glamorous New York City socialites, he find them to be 'elevator music'. Rick's heart takes charge as this story takes him into uncharted forests of romantic passion. One hot summer day, Rick stops for gas in a little town called Emery. While his car is serviced, he casually stops by the air-conditioned Free Public Library. As Rick and Marian spot one another for the first time, their exchange of looks pierces each other's hearts. Marian is still grieving, but the handsome young stranger starts coming by to court her, and sweeps her off her feet. They can have happiness together--but each must find a new life's start for a star-crossed future together. A secret villain, meanwhile, conspires with certain accomplices to ruin their lives, thus creating a level of suspense and mystery that keeps readers guessing at twists and setbacks. Can Rick and Marian overcome their enemies and difficulties to find the triumphant love that will let them live happily ever after? Read now and enjoy the story.
