I started this book last night... And finished it last night because I just couldn't stop. I can't really decide how I feel about it in my current, exhausted state. All I know is that I laughed so loud at points I had to physically stop myself so I wouldn't wake up the rest of my house.... So. Read it.

I wanted to give this book more stars because I really liked the description, maybe that's why I was kinda dissapointed with the actual story.
I don't know exactly what I expected, but first of all the guy on the cover is not the Garrick I pictured in my head. My Garrick is older and sexier. The guy on the cover is cute, but I can't see him like the hot proffesor we get to know in this book.
Garrick was one of my favorite things of this story. His personality and the way he talks (not just the accent) made me love him right away.
Bliss was amazing, and so funny. I found so amusing the way she thinks and over-thinks everything.
The scenes between her and Garrick were awesome, and the chemistry between them was obvious. The hot scenes were good, some of them really good
The writting was great, maybe a little too theatrical for my taste, and sometimes if you didn't know anything about the book they were talking about it was kind of hard to understand some parts, but it was clear enough to get the point.
I think at the end everything got fixed too fast too perfectly, and I still find a bit hard to believe that Bliss being an actress couldn't find a better excuse that first night with Garrick, her lying was kind of obvious, but the story was cute after all.
Maybe I had higher expectatives about this book, and that's the main reason why I'm giving it just 3 stars, but it was a light, fun read, and that was what I was looking for at this moment.

This is a sweet story that had me giggling at times. Its a sweet story where a college student has confessed to her best friend that she is a virgin, so her best friend takes her out to get rid of her v-card.
Bliss meets Garrick and has night where she runs out from her apartment with him naked, but when she see's him again, she finds out that he is her new professor.
The attraction sizzles between the two and even though the relationship should not go ahead, both find themselves struggling to keep themselves apart.
With friends both there and making things a little more difficult at times she has Garrick when she needs him most. However Bliss is her own worst enemy and she has a tendency to ruin things.
It is only when they come down ill that things really change and we get our HEA.

Gostei bastante! Muito easygoing! A relação da Bliss e do Garrick é algo que gostaria de ter, um relacionamento com muitas brincadeiras, muitas picardias, e acima de tudo, muito amor!

I thought this was sweet -- not what I was expecting from the cover though (I figured it'd be intensely sexy and that there would be tons of tension throughout the book. Not so much!)
Still though, very much enjoyed it. Bliss was adorable and I really related to her college experience. Garrick was also quite attractive -- and his Britishness pretty convincing (I have a Welsh husband so always on the lookout for authors who use incorrect British-cisms.)
Loved the ending, loved the story - loved Cade too! -- but thought the cover a little misleading, is all.
