An incredibly shy librarian who finds it almost impossible to talk with people unless it's about books. A dominant who comes into the library is captivated by the shy woman behind the circulation desk. The minute she says Yes, Sir to him, he knows she's his. He just needs to convince her of that.

We were friends with benefits. Reed would stop by every time he was in Anchorage, and that was the extent of things, although I started to want more. Then he ended our arrangement, and I suspected there was another woman, but it wasn't until I overheard a conversation that I understood completely. He thought I was calling and texting because I couldn't take no for an answer. That wasn't my problem at all. Two blue lines were.
