Librarian: Not for my library (we don't have any need for this genre at the moment), but definitely for others. If I were curating a romance collection for a public library I would definitely add this to the collection. It has the sweet, almost saccharine nature of many a romance novel, and the overly complicated plot set up of a romantic comedy.
Reader: Romance is not my genre. Just ask my sisters. They will tell you that I get embarrassed during the mushy scenes in movies and generally refuse to go anywhere near their beloved Hallmark movies. So I'm really not the best person to judge the quality of a romance novel. The best I can say is that I found it to be fine. Not great, but not horrible either. It was worth the $2 that I paid for it at the used bookstore.
