Wait. It just ends?
I was really enjoying the dual viewpoints and cute story until it abruptly ended. No conclusion or romance......unless....you but the next one. Now I am all for drawn out stories but warn a girl before you start that this one isn't stand alone. Even if it is a shorter read.

Cute prequel novella to Miss Match (which I just started reading). This short story introduces the characters in Miss Match and gives you their background and the history of how they met. Enjoyed it!

2.5 star Could have been a good cute YA romance but Brooke’s stupid instance on remaining friends despite the fact that they were both obviously into one another and the Luke had proven he was a good guy was super annoying. I understand that this is a prequel to an adult romance about Luke & Brooke, I get why she was gun-shy to start with but honestly her stubbornness about it put me off Brooke and made me not want to read their adult story because she obviously keeps it up for YEARS.

Cute introduction novella to the main characters and a few peripheral characters from the first book and the basis/foundation for the series. If you read this first before any of the other books in the series, then the ending may surprise you, but if you've read the other books, then you know where it's going, though it in no way detracts from the way the story is told. It hints at Brooke and Luke's "rules" from the first book and also shows how Brooke, Luke, and Zoey all meet, as well as Brooke's background with her parents, etc. (things that come up in subsequent books). This is pretty short and a very fast read, could be read in one sitting.

Never got around to sharing how much I enjoyed this story. Fun, has its swoon moments, but nothing intense. Thoroughly loved it.

I got this little novella for free and thought I should give it a read. It was a quick read and more enjoyable than I thought it would be. Apparently it's a kind of prequel to the author's No Match for Love series, so for anyone who has read those books already the main characters here will be familiar, albeit much younger. In spite of this, it was still fine as a standalone read.
Most of the characters are fairly likeable and a few difficult topics are also dealt with. There was no real twist to speak of, but the ending definitely set things up for more to follow.
