This is an adorable story period. We get to talk about topics like racism and sexual discovery, all while in a story that could be otherwise mundane. She makes a point to discern their differences in religion and family style, something refreshing that I don't always get to see in romances. While there were elements in the book that I thought were a tad bit unrealistic (like the Aisling incident, ugh...), I'm willing to look past it because I literally COULD NOT put it down!!
