Thank you to Netgalley for an eARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
This book kept me engaged most of the way through and was a cute YA romance story. However, there were some flaws with it that ultimately made me have to give it a lower rating than I expected. As I read it, I felt like the author had no idea where she was going with it when she wrote it. While it was clear that this was going to be a romance, the main character seemed to bounce around from person to person throughout the story. Until the last 15% or so of the book, I wasn't sure who she was actually interested in. That made the story hard to follow and then the end wrapped up far too quickly considering all of the anguish we went through to get there. I would give Cantor another try, I think, but this book has some room for improvement.
