Hottie on Her Shelf (Swan Cove Book 1)
Christi Barth
Hallie Scott expected the hangover from her thirtieth birthday. She did not expect to find her calm, orderly life as Swan Cove’s head librarian to completely change overnight when her best friend added Hallie to the mayoral ballot because of one little remark. One. Now she’s going head-to-head with the small coastal town’s prominent “prince,” Fitz Montgomery…whose charm is about to get seriously checked.All Fitz wants is to prove himself, beyond being the latest in the unbroken line of Montgomery mayors. Nobody, least of all Fitz, expected the town’s cute-as-hell librarian to step up and run against him. Hallie’s definitely in over her head, which is a problem, since Fitz wants a fair fight. But is he helping Hallie level the playing field…or arming his opponent?Hallie and Fitz are on completely different sides. Their backgrounds, their lives, their ongoing ebook vs paperback argument. But they’re both about to learn that the art of war is nowhere near as complicated as falling for the enemy...

I voluntary read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
I really, really, enjoyed this book! Both main characters are lovable and during the book, we see them growing and evolving. The plot itself was also nice, all-do a little predictable, but I was OK with that! Fitz and Hallie had some really nice banter which I appreciate! They talked and debated and had fun poking each other, but they also made each other feel safe about the insecurities each of them had. I felt that they were really made for each other! They fit perfectly! There were also Fitz's issues with his family, which can be so relatable to many people. The other characters were also very loveable. I felt that the end was a little rushed, I felt that there was more to right instead of rushing it. Also, they were never enemies? There was a one-sided rivalry, with no justification whatsoever on Hallie’s part.
