When old friends reunite, opposites attract in a witty and lighthearted romance about taking chances and falling in love against the odds.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt's an unwritten rule somewhere: small-town librarians shall not commit spontaneous acts, for fear of mortal embarrassment. I'd certainly just proved it true, though hiring an escort was perfectly logical. How else should I overcome my fear of intimacy without risking heartbreak?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnfortunately, what came next wasn't so logical.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstead of a dating coach, Griffin King showed up. Yes, that Griffin King: my childhood neighbor and now, to my dismay, an obscenely handsome pro football player. He's not \u003ci\u003eactually\u003c\/i\u003e an escort, but how was I supposed to know that?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAvoiding him after the mix-up is impossible. The man is \u003ci\u003eeverywhere\u003c\/i\u003e--put in time-out by his agent after a PR snafu. Griffin might be an outrageous flirt determined to torment me until I snap, but he's also the perfect man to help me.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe lessons aren't what I thought they'd be. Neither is Griffin. Every time we touch, every time he shows me a different side to myself--and to him--I can't help but wonder if we're about to break another rule: the playboy and the good girl aren't supposed to fall in love.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Montlake\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/20\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781662526626\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 348","brand":"Karla Sorensen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45211649736885,"sku":"9781662526626","price":14.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_0c5f35c1-1d6e-4245-99f3-b0520f0cf4d3.jpg?v=1742913643","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/lessons-in-heartbreak-9781662526626","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
