Is it possible to miss something you never really had?

Jubilee Jenkins is zero ordinary librarian. Using a rare allergy to human touch, any skin-to-skin contact could literally kill her. But after retreating into solitude for nearly ten years, Jubilee’s decided to brave the world once again, despite the risks. Armed with a set of gloves, lengthy sleeves, and her trusty bicycle, she finally ventures out the front door-and into her upcoming.

Eric Keegan offers problems of his personal. With his child from a failed marriage no about Close Enough to Touch much longer speaking to him, and his outstanding, if psychologically troubled, adopted son attempting telekinesis, Eric’s battling to determine how his life got so off program, and how exactly to be the dad-and man-he wants so desperately to become. So when an encounter within the check-out table at the neighborhood library entangles his lifestyle with that of a beautiful-albeit eccentric-woman, he discovers himself wanting only to be near her.

A “heart-wrenching and funny” (Web publishers Weekly) love story for anybody who’s ever desired something-or someone-just out of reach, Colleen Oakley’s Close More than enough to Touch will delight supporters of Jojo Moyes’s One Plus One and Graeme Simsion’s The Rosie Task.
