So sweet!

I normally don’t go for the contemporary romance genre, unless I’m in the mood for a tooth ache - which, let’s face it, does happen. This novel inspires that kind of tooth ache, with the perfect blend of angst, romance, self realization and sap. It’s a good combination, and if your going to spend your time on the sticky, this over is worth it. I loved Carly, though I didn’t start that way. The girl is just so blasted happy... all.. the... time! I couldn’t relate. Until I could. She starts to make sense, and by the end, Carly became one of my unsung heroes.

Pros:
- Honest romance.
- This hurts the hard parts of life we ALL deal with yet none of us really accepts.
- Carly.... so freaking bubbly and honestly? Pretty dang wonderful.
- Though I personally relate to Dina more.
- I live in Southern California and this author actually got the geography right. I recognized what she was talking about.

Cons:
- HEA, but a bit more implied that blatant.
- I want to see the outcome of her brothers relationship!
- Formatting issues, doubt it’s the fault of the author, just the upload.
- Minor editing issues.
