I didn't like this one at much as the first one, but this was still a fantastic book. 

Logan and Grace are just as sweet a couple as Garrett and Hannah is. And I loved that when Logan messed up with Grace, she made him earn a date with her and the tasks she gave him to do to earn that date were funny. 

The other characters in this book were great as well. I really liked Grace's sophomore roommate. She ended up being a way better friend and roommate to Grace than Ramona(Grace's childhood best friend and freshman year roommate)was. 

Grace's dad was really sweet and I love how he comforted Logan despite Logan being late to picking up Grace after he had to clean up one of his father's drunken messes. I almost cried during that scene. You can really see how much Logan was struggling with the situation with his dad and how much he needed that "father-son" like moment, even if it wasn't from his own dad. 

Grace's mother was also really great. I love how carefree and funny she is and I loved how Grace's parents got along so well. I haven't really seen that in a lot of books before. It was refreshing to see an actually healthy and amicable divorce in a book.

The characters in these books are really relatable so far and I love that. I also like how these first two books have real life issues incorporated into the plot and I'm excited to see if that continues in the next few books.

I'm really loving this series so far and I can't wait to get into Dean and Allie's story next. And I'm excited to see more of Sabrina as well. The interaction between Dean and Sabrina in this book has me curious about what happened between them to make them dislike each other so much. And how that's gonna affect Tucker and Sabrina's relationship(with Dean and Tucker being friends)since I know the fourth book is about them.

“First and foremost—be confident. Second—be spontaneous. Third—the only opinion that matters is your own.” 

I had so much fun listening to this book, as I had in the first one. Although I can't help comparing the first two books because I'm kind of bias towards Garrett and seeing him have lots of cameos in this book made me squeal just a little bit. 

I love Logan and his personality - yes, granted that he was a freaking manwhore, I still love him nonetheless. It actually made sense he was such because of the way he was raised up. So imagine when someone such as Grace comes into his life. And it was accidental too! What a meet-cute! UGH. Their relationship at first was rocky, given the fact that Logan was "into" someone else at that time before he got slapped in the face by someone, ehem ehem G. So it was months of agony for him because if you're like Grace, you're somewhat done, right? But the way Logan pursued Grace into going out with him - the list!!!! You just can't blame Grace for giving him a second chance. Throughout the rest of the story, I saw how much they both meant for one another and how making a simple mistake could literally break it off but they both made it work somehow. Especially during the time where the V card was going to be thrown out. Logan was very gentle with Grace and if I was Grace, I would have been very appreciative too. Most girl's firsts aren't as gentle as that. 

Logan's background was very sad as well. Kind of in-par with Garrett's. I just thought it was kind of expected how that would have gone in the end and I'm glad that it happened the way it did because Logan deserves to be happily playing hockey. Plus points for giving the readers a sneak peek of what would be the future of the two couples (LxG and GxH)!!!!

Although I don’t give it 5 stars, Logan kinda is my favorite. I like him better than Graham. Don’t know why, he just is sort of. Right from the beginning. Broke my heart to read that he thought he had a crush on Hannah because I was screaming at him that since he met Grace, he didn’t think of Hannah for one second. And then he goes on to think that he took Grace as a distraction. Like no dude. You go out and screw another to have a distraction. You don’t go out, meet someone, doesn’t go as planned and then think about her all damn weekend about how to fix it.
So that’s why I’m not a big fan of Grace‘s. I think she’s being too hard on him. The first time and then also the second time when she makes him apologize again for something stupid I was screaming at her it’s not a situation to run out on him. Stay  there and actually show him that you won’t leave him like you said you would. But no, you turn around and run off. So yeah… 
I love Logan and I love that Grace turned out to be his Hannah, but she pissed me off too much sometimes.
