Description:
Lovely but shy Norah Jane Brown has definitely accepted her fate as an old maid. She doesn't date, she twists her long hair into a bun on top of her head, she wears baggy lace-collared granny dresses, and she works as a librarian. Worst of all, she's still a virgin at almost thirty-four. But Norah Jane has harbored a secret yen for bad boy Elijah Wilder ever since they were in grade school. Now she must find a husband, fast. The terms of her grandfather's will specifically state that if Norah Jane isn't married by her thirty-fourth birthday, she will lose Willow Run, her beloved, classically beautiful home. The small town she lives in doesn't have a lot of eligible bachelors, but fortunately, it does have Elijah - and Elijah's home and business have just suffered a devastating fire. When the town's wild man agrees to a marriage of convenience with the local maiden lady, none of the local gossips think it will last. Neither do Norah Jane and Elijah, but Elijah discovers a seductive temptress lurking beneath Norah's baggy dresses and innocent face, and Norah learns that her hard-hearted temporary husband has more to offer than steamy kisses in this charming, endearing tale of mismatched lovers who are kindred spirits at heart. A wonderful story to make readers smile and sigh. --Lois Faye Dyer
