I am bored. I can’t connect with the characters and I honestly don’t like the writing and language style.

I think this author puts drugs in her words because I am becoming addicted to her books. They are so easy to sit down and read in one sitting.

A great smart, funny, aggravating, totally romantic football story. My very favorite kind! <3

Ava is one of the most relatable characters I've read lately. Does she mess up... big? Absolutely. But the psychology around it - excuse the technical breakdown here - is spot on. It's why she's so relatable. The human desire to be loved, and have attention from those that are supposed to love us most, causes even the best of us to make some really dumb mistakes.

I was on pins and needles reading a good chunk of this story because the disaster waiting to happen is clear. You know, outside perspective and all. But I only blame Ava a teensy tiny bit... Out of all the opportunities she had to avoid the train wreck, one was most abundant, and most hurtful to Matthew.

Ahhh, Matthew. One of my favorite heros of all. Strong, caring, romantic, and thank goodness a huge capacity for forgiveness.

I went to sleep last night with a huge goofy grin. The epitome of a cheesy romantic comedy that wasn't really a comedy at all. Although Ava is hilarious. And the story isn't cheesy.
