  Horse whisperer Shane Stryker is done with passion. This time around, he’s
  determined to meet someone who will be content with the quiet life of a

  Small-town librarian Annabelle Weiss has always seen herself as more of a
  sweetheart than a siren, so she can’t understand why Shane keeps pushing her
