I loved this but there is something that doesn't sit right with me about this story.

I never read the first book so I don't have a preconceived perception of Giselle as other readers may have so that did not affect my overall feeling of the story.

I found the narrative of 'she's not like other girls because she likes science and wears slacks and blouses' to have been pushed very hard in this story, especially in the beginning and that put me off a little.

Something was just off for me and I don't know if it was the pacing or how the relationship between Devon and Giselle progressed. I can't put my finger on it. As much as I enjoyed Devon (man oh man book boyfriend material for sure especially if you love alpha male characters!) there was something I just didn't gel with.

The winner of this story is Devon for sure. I loved Devon, how he opened up and how intense his feelings for Giselle were. The build up to their romance was great and the steam factor was intense. So I guess it boils down to Giselle and her character really hence the four star rating.

Devon is a likable character despite his bad boy persona and Giselle definitely redeems herself from her slightly unsavory past.
I like that she’s a super smart and quirky heroine.
I liked their banter and they had some really great funny moments.
Secondary character Aiden is awesome ! He’s hilarious and a great friend.
I loved seeing familiar characters from the authors book Not my Romeo. They are so quirky and fun. They add a lot of comedy and heart.
