It's Love, Dude is a sweet romance about opposites attracting.

Pro surfer Zane Carlton returns to home town in Western Australia for a promo visit, and meets shy but beautiful assistant to a politician, Molly Georgiou.

Everyone believes Zane's bad boy personal that is perpetuated by the media, but is this really him? Can Molly break that down and get to know the real man?

Brought together through his grandfather and a little known endangered animal (hey, I am Australian and I had never heard of a woylie!! But have since Googled and they are adorable), attraction blossoms into long distance romance and maybe love?

Outside forces try to break them up, but will their feelings be strong enough to survive long periods of separation.

I loved the secondary characters - Grandpa Tom is ornery and mouthy, Mrs Li is in a world of her own.

This is a well written, enjoyable story. I enjoyed that I could picture some of the places that are written about, got the glitz of the Gold Coast down pat - though may have been a bit too kind to it!!

This is the first I have read of Jenny Schwarz, but I will definitely check out more.
