I've got to say that I didn't have high expectations because this was a Wattpad book. It surprised me and turned out to be a fun read. This book is a cute romance. The kind that you want to read on lazy rainy days for a quick feel-good factor. If I have to nitpick, I would say it could use a bit of editing, but I won't stress about it. After all, it was a light read and entertained me well. Note - I received a free copy of the book from the publisher. This has not influenced my review in any way. no reviews | add a review

Largely I enjoyed this...at first. I liked the fact the two found out about each other not just from their texts but from how their friends talked to them via text. It's a different side and gives context sometimes.
I liked that Keeley and Nicky were relatable friends, with understandable issues, the whole way through. I enjoyed the interaction between Keeley and her twin brother Zach.
What I ended up being less enthusiastic about was the almost Romeo & Juliet romance (which is nowhere mentioned in the blurb) and how...little empathy or forethought Keeley gives the entire situation. The school rivalry was pretty damn intense and she knew better than anyone so I was surprised she didn't plan for fall out better.
Also I didn't much care for Talon, but I freely admit that's partially because I'm biased against HS/College jocks from personal experience. So my opinion on him isn't reflected in my overall opinion of the book. He also wasn't as funny as Keeley seemed to find him, but he at least seemed to understand keeping their relationship a secret was a big problem. ( )
