Sure Thing
by Jana Aston
My first thought as I began listening was that I wished I had the guts to do what Violet did. Hey, just realized this is two audiobooks in a row that the main character was named Violet! Although in this story, she had to go by the name Daisy, because she was pretending to be her twin. I did get a little annoyed at times when there were too many chapters from the same character. I get why it's done, it adds the drama/suspense for knowing what the other character is thinking, but sometimes I just need/miss the other character's viewpoint! As the story went and we learned just how awesome Jennings was in bed, I couldn't help but compare to my own experiences and thought about who was that for me. Now, I did agree with her sister Daisy about some things, like carrot cake, yuck! This was one that I feel like neither of their secrets were bad enough to make the other upset when the learned them. But the way that Jennings kind of connected the dots and the assumptions he made based on seeing something out of context at the end, I can understand his being upset. In the end though, we got more chapters from his point of view, and when he realized she was a twin, I'm glad that helped him see that her secret wasn't what he would think. Loved so much about this. I did want to strangle the author though for how she left us off at the end of one chapter with Jennings. I couldn't believe when we joined him again towards the end that she'd done that to us! One other thing to share, there is a quote that really hit me, really resounded with me: Prepare for the inevitable or hold out hope. That is how I feel about my love life. I've kind of just given up and realized I'll be alone for my whole life. Done holding out hope. Now getting any love and romance from the books I read.
Glad to hear there is going to be a book for Daisy too!
