This was one great read. Violet is a fun, funny, smart, spunky all around cool chick. She is socially awkward, (as is her mom) which leads to numerous, insanely funny situations. I was seriously in tears I was laughing so hard. The best part is, even though most of the humor is at her expense, her grace under the most trying of circumstances make it all the funnier, instead of painful.

Then there is Zane. Damn he is hot. He comes off as vaguely condescending in the beginning, and is a bit of a man whore, but as he and Violet get to know each other, the "real" Zane showes himself, and he is every bit as hot, but is also sweet, and smart and romantic. Oh man, and the chemistry between them is sizzling,

They get together, and then at about 80% a secret, which was illuded to earlier is revealed. I was like :
What?

I just didn't really see it coming. And while part of me was like "sweet!" another part if me just wanted the "regular " story to continue, without this new development. Because of this, the final HEA seemed more then a tad unrealistic. I still loved it, and I still love Zane and Violet together, I just would have preferred a slower, more normal ending.

Highly recommend though!

“Fiction should be a place of lollipops and escape. Real life is depressing enough--I, for one, don't want to read about make believe misery, too.”
