Former detective and librarian go undercover as newlyweds to recover a valuable manuscript. I adored them both - she's intuitive and fierce, and he's a brilliant, sexy, glasses-wearing nerd. Theirs is a slow burn, partners to lovers romance, with mucho sizzling chemistry and sexual tension. Their different strengths complement each other perfectly, and they make kick-ass couple. 

There's such a good process of them learning to work with and trust each other, and seeing their love-for-show becoming something real. And it's so *hot* when they finally got it going - our geeky librarian's deliciously dirty side is a revelation! No
80% break-up: in place of that is something that gave me *all* the feels
. 😍 The chase is so fun and exciting - I had such a great time with this one!
