A soft type of romance, it witty and sexy.the humour in this book was top tier for me.Luc has a relatable personaly and sense of humour. he is also raw and real with faults and abondonment from growing up withan absent father, who by the way i hate . i love his mom for being supportive, she is funny too. then comes Oliver who first bored me with his rigidity and constant need for control, it was only when i met his parents that i could excude how he turned out. i hate his parents too because they are the source of all his insecurities. as a boyfriend, i loved him for Luc, the just worked without trying. this book was like reading emotions i have long wanted to put down on a page, its not a particularly sad book bu it will tap into your emotions.

there were some side characters i will not remember, they fell flat and their roles could have been cancelled so to further develop the other characters who were showing promise, help them be more prominent and strong since they could have easily fell short if it was not for their constant mention. the ending was so unnecesary, too much was happening all at once, most which could have been easitly avoided, it just try too hard and the twist fel trhough and dissappeared.
