kdurham2's review against another edition
3.0
Almost a novelette, this little book packs quite a punch in less than 150 pages. With a rough start and a stellar ending, I loved reading a book with both males and a female as the central characters. It was also interesting to read a book with three characters that weren't exactly the typical love triangle. And although this book may not have all the pages that most books may have, the reader is still able to find a deep and twisting story.
I said that it was a rough start because I felt as though from the beginning you were assaulted with all the characters and you were given little time to get to know them each in their own rights. I reread the first few pages twice to make sure that I had each character straight, but once I knew who we were talking about - I was ready to read on.
The twists and turns were fun to take with the characters. Although the three main characters work together, it was nice to see them both on the job and after hours. I felt that they were each complete because the reader saw them through both their work lives and their personal lives.
A little soap opera drama mixed with a great chick lit story made for a perfect novelette for a weekend read. If you like a little drama and some twists and turns, I would advise picking this one up.

As others have said, romance from the side of the guy. I found it to be an engaging read (finished the first 1/2 the first night I started!). Found myself wishing things would work out, being annoyed at the girlfriend, then disgusted w/ her attitude. Liked the happy ending :). Looking forward to reading more by Ms. West!

I would like to thank Elizabeth Anne West for making an edition of this book available for free over goodreads. However the process of downloading the book wasn’t as easy as I would have liked it to be.
I wanted to read this because I had read and enjoyed an austenesque book by West, and the reviews and blurb sounded interesting.
It’s an interesting story that I found hard to put down. I liked that it was from a male pov, makes it different from so many contemporaries. Fast paced story, author has obviously researched and knows the subject well. It’s not much of a romance as described, but it is engrossing.
