The Spellshop by Sarah Beth Durst
"Kiela has always had trouble dealing with people. Thankfully, as librarian at the Great Library of Alyssium, she and her assistant Caz--a magically sentient spider plant--have spent the last decade sequestered among the empire's most precious spellbooks . . . Then a revolution begins and the library goes up in flames. She and Caz flee with all the spellbooks they can carry and head to a remote island. . . Taking refuge there, Kiela discovers, much to her dismay, a nosy--and very handsome--neighbor who can't take a hint and keeps showing up day after day to make sure she's fed and help fix up her new home"--Provided by publisher.
