This is platonic romance book that had some of the best character development I've read in a minute. I loved reading the different POV's and I totally cried at the ending. I have a soft spot for grumpy old men and I was immediately taken with Aruther, and totally understood Sloane. I loved the found family aspect and the strong sense of community that developed. And it all started at the library!
