This book was sweet and funny at the same time. The dialogue in it was awesome. I loved how real the characters were. The banter was amazing.

Matty was a true "good guy". Shelley was damaged, but not ruined by a relationship gone bad. It was a story of two people that were meant to be finding out how to be together.

The supporting characters were wonderful as well. I really want to read more about Mel's story!
I was honestly expecting a smutty read with this one. And i can say that I was pleasantly surprised to find a story with a great plot and lots of sexual tension, but very little; I'm talking one scene; sex. Matty is just an all around great man and I think I now have a new book boyfriend!

Cute and quick!

This was a cute and quick love story. This is for adults due to content and language but it was a fast read.
This is how I felt reading this book:



Cute Guy pretty girl. I loved the story and everything in it.. I loved the characters and the fact that the teachers acted worse then the high school students was pretty funny. I have to say that the best date ever was with Jacob the Vegan and it was funny that Matty set it up. I hated Chase and Summer and thought it was funny when they were all together at the end. I am sorry but, I would have smacked a hoe and left it there!
I loved this book. It was funny, lighthearted and an all around good read.
I'm sorry, when an author writes "lady parts" or "down there" as description, I'm done.
