New York Times-bestselling author Meg

Cabot returns with a charming romance between a children's

Welcome

to Little Bridge, one of the smallest, most beautiful islands in the Florida

A broken engagement only gave Molly

Montgomery additional incentive to follow her dream job from the Colorado Rockies

to the Florida Keys. Now, as Little Bridge Island Public Library’s head of

children’s services, Molly hopes the messiest thing in her life will be her

sticky-note covered desk. But fate—in the form of a newborn left in the

restroom—has other ideas. So does the sheriff who comes to investigate the

“abandonment”.  When John Hartwell folds

all six-feet-three of himself into a tiny chair and insists that whoever left

the baby is a criminal, Molly begs to differ and asks what he’s doing about the

Island’s real crime wave (if thefts of items from homes that have been

left unlocked could be called that). Not the best of starts, but the man’s

arrogance is almost as distracting as his blue eyes. Almost… 

John would be pretty irritated if one

of his deputies had a desk as disorderly as Molly’s. Good thing she doesn’t

work for him, considering how attracted he is to her. Molly’s lilting librarian

voice makes even the saltiest remarks go down sweeter, which is bad as long as

she’s a witness but might be good once the case is solved—provided he hasn’t

gotten on her last nerve by then. Recently divorced, John

has been having trouble adjusting to single life as well as single parenthood. But

something in Molly’s beautiful smile gives John hope that his old life on

Little Bridge might suddenly hold new promise—if only they can get over their

differences. 

Clever, hilarious, and

fun, No Offense will tug at readers’

heartstrings and make them fall in love with Little Bridge Island and its

unique characters once again.
