Welcome to Little Bridge, one of the most beautiful islands in the Florida Keys, home to sandy white beaches, salt-rimmed margaritas and sizzling romance . . .

Love has a way of sneaking up when least expected . . .

Molly Montgomery couldn't be more thrilled about starting her new job at Little Bridge Island's library. Happy to have left her problematic ex behind on the mainland, her new life feels like heaven . . . at least until she finds a newborn baby abandoned in the library. When Sheriff John Hartwell arrives on the scene, Molly can't help but be riled by his attitude - tall and handsome he may be, but his arrogance is almost as distracting as his blue eyes.

Recently divorced, John has been having trouble adjusting to single life, especially with a grumpy teenage daughter in tow. But as he works with Molly to track down the baby's mother, something in the librarian's beautiful smile gives John hope that his old life on Little Bridge might suddenly hold new promise - if only they can get over their differences . . .

Clever, hilarious, and fun, No Offense will tug at readers' heartstrings and make them fall in love with Little Bridge Island and its unique characters once again.

It was lovely to be back in Little Bridge Island with a whole new standalone book. 

I loved new children's librarian Molly, she clearly loves kids and books and is just perfect for her role.  What she wasn't expecting though during a cookie decorating session (which had me laughing out loud for one boy's antics) that she would also discover a new born baby abandoned in the toilets 

Due to this she meets the towns new Sheriff and well sparks fly -  though what sort of sparks initially at least well its hard to tell. 

There are many assorted facets to this story and I really enjoyed them all - not just the budding romance between Molly and the Sheriff but also seeing how the young man that had me laughing at the start, develops, and the abandoned baby storyline was well done too. 

I really enjoyed the writing in addition to the setting and delighted to see that Little Bridge Island is in fact a series.  I already look forward to more. 

Thank you to Piatkus and Netgalley for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily,
