When Juliren Starkshell is offered up as a bride - to a library, of all things - she’s entirely unprepared for its wild keeper. Caught up in a whirl of chickens with coloured eggs, flying books, bubble libraries, and sponge cake, her world is entirely turned upside down when she realizes her husband is the one who sentenced her family to death. And when Merek Librarianson finds himself with a wife he didn’t ask for, a problem he can’t solve, and a ticking clock, he’s more than a little intimidated. Especially since this new wife might be the key to solving all his troubles - and she doesn’t even look like one of the heroines of his favorite romance novels. The deck is not stacked in their favor, but love is sure to find two people trapped together in a library full of cake. Right?
