The Wallace family, as written by Sara Ney, is one of the funniest families out there. OMG! The way the siblings fight with each other is hilarious! And it turns out that Mateo’s family can definitely give the Wallaces a run for their money! This was hilarious. However, I was at first a little irritated with True. Because I don’t really get her motivation for just running out on Mateo like she did. I mean, I do. Her brother is way overprotective. But I also didn’t. So that irritated me a bit.

Of course that did add to the drama for sure. It also gave us a chance to fall in love with Mateo because he had been thinking about her ever since the wedding and was interested in dating her again even before he had found out about the big secret True was keeping from him.

Even with being so overprotective in such a crazy way, it was fun to watch Tripp and True interact, as well as Tripp’s “dogwalker/house sitter” Molly. And I love that the family even if a little taken aback by True’s announcement, in the end were all supportive and happy really about it. And Mateo’s sisters were also hilarious. Do we have any other of the baseball players we’ve met or maybe football player’s from Tripp’s book that we could set any of those girls up with? Because I would love more time with his family.

And I was so excited for the point when they would finally tell Buzz, and it did not disappoint at all! Love, love, LOVED this book!
