I definitely liked the unique storyline with the hero having been on a reality tv dating show. The main characters were roommates with one of the characters from the last book I read by this author, Then You Saw Me. So it was nice getting a little bit more time with those characters. I honestly liked Gannon sooner than I did the love interest in the last book. I also liked that the main character, Amelie, was in school studying to become a librarian. Although I did chuckle a bit at the naivete of thinking that a library job was going to be all organized and orderly and knowing what would happen when. Because that is not a library job at all. Unless you are maybe in the back cataloging or just shelving, as a librarian you never know for sure what you’ll be doing that day. Or maybe it’s different for public librarians as opposed to school librarians.

Both characters had backgrounds that made you understand some of their emotional issues and hang ups on what they wanted or would do. But there were several times in this when I felt they were being stubborn way more than was necessary for even a normal romance novel drama. At the end there was a moment when everything was going pretty good for their relationship, but she got a upset over something that totally wasn’t fair for her. Again though, it was easy to understand why she was easily upset by it. And I really liked that the author made sure her friends let her know she was being unreasonable and that she realized it easily with just the little talk they had with her.

It was a little bit long for me at times, and there might have been a few things I wish there was more of, but overall a pretty good story.
