Ruby is old enough to know better. Gabriel is young enough not to care.
Ruby: I never wanted to move back to Waterford. Twenty years after high school, the mean girls still treat me like set decoration. When Gabriel came into my library, joking about the alphabet and putting 'U, N, I' together, I wrote him off and tried to forget him. Who needs a young stud when I have all the book boyfriends I could ever need? After a hot kiss in a hotel hallway leaves me wanting more, there's nothing I won't do to get it; I'll even attend my dreaded high school reunion.
Gabriel: I never wanted to come to Waterford, but when I'm bound by duty to attend my best friend's funeral, I pack a bag and go. WIth nothing to do between my arrival and departure besides sit around and wait, I decide to visit the local library. I was counting on musty, old stacks of books and geriatric librarians. I wasn't counting on vibrant, beautiful, brilliant Ruby. When a hot kiss leaves me breathless, I'll go to any length to see her again, even if that means crashing a party and sweeping her off her feet.
