Reid Montgomery is a local British librarian in New York city who lives in a small apartment above the library he works at. To most he appears calm, collected, and level-headed because he is all of that, but a select few get to see that composed figure fall. Reid has a hidden soft spot for romance novels, especially the spicy ones. When he gets caught just holding these books he gets flustered and defensive, even when he's doing his job and putting them away. He's a crappy liar and he knows it.
