From The Publisher:
Abigail is content with her quiet life as a librarian. But when she's invited to a high-profile charity auction, she finds herself dancing with one of the most beautiful women she's ever met. Abby's sure she'll never see her again, but then Gabrielle calls and asks her on a date. And soon after, another.
Supermodel Gabrielle Levesque has a reputation as the Ice Queen-cold and untouchable-except she warms up whenever she's with Abby. Only Abby isn't interested in the heat between them; she's asexual, and she's worried that admitting as much to Gabrielle might spell the end of their blooming romance.
They're two different women from two very different worlds, but Abby knows she can love Gabrielle. Her passion for books, travel, and theater prove there's more to the Ice Queen than meets the eye. But they'll have to overcome Abby's fears-and Gabrielle's own threatening secrets-in order to find their way to love.
