This may be a lifestyle I never heard of before. Christa spends her life hiding out, quite literally, studying sea snails in the Indian Ocean. Her life gets thrown thru a loop when her dad who supposedly died in a plane crash reappears and she is taken out of her quiet life and thrown in the spotlight. this was a quirky, unique story!

I am normally a huge Abbi Waxman fan, but this one fell kind of flat for me. I found the main character to be too all over the place (and not written well enough to justify). I also had two major logistical quibbles: 1. Why didn't Christa and Nate use a condom???? and 2. If Denny was so involved in Jasper's show and business, wouldn't she have known who his mistress was if she worked for the agency??? . I think more editing might have helped, but I don't know if this is one I'd return to necessarily.

A quick and easy read. It did take me a little bit to get into the story but about midway I was really enjoying myself. Abby Waxman has a fun and quirky setting writing style that was refreshing to read. I would have liked to have seen a bit more build up to the romance part of the story. But overall a good book to get lost in.
