Sweet, funny romance with a great supporting cast.  Both lead characters have made mistakes in their pasts and once they get past their stubbornness, they are able to sensibly move forward with their lives.  The real-life issues that they and their friends and family address show that no poor decisions should ever define someone for life.

While I really enjoyed this book I found the premise to be a bit odd and everything moved a bit faster than is my ideal. Any time the main characters are together is wonderful. They have sweet, playful chemistry as well as tender, poetic moments of love and honesty. Those are the parts where this book really shines. I felt like the “fic” was a weird focal point for the story. It just felt childish where Georgie was more scattered and chaotic. It also didn’t come to be that useful or meaningful in the end and felt like that aspect was unfinished. The ending overall felt a bit rushed. I think if this book had a more stable storyline and was longer it would really be up there for me.
