A typical teenage romance. 3.5 stars.

I feel like this book was a really cute read and a fun idea of meeting someone online vs. real life. It was such a sweet read with two great characters.

Porter and Bailey compliment each other so well in so many different ways. They're put to the test time and time again and always figure it out. I'm definitely rooting for a marriage made of high school sweethearts with these two.

However, I feel like this book could have been much longer and explained more details. With their traumatic pasts and their complex struggles in day to day life, I would have liked to learn more about both. Though for it being a stand alone novel, it was a quick read that I couldn't wait to find out what happened.

If you're not looking for a serious read, and something to pull you from a reading slump I suggest Alex, Approximately for a quick lift me up between book series.

This is my first Jenn Bennet book and I was happy reading this.
Though I found this book very predictable, what I loved most about this were the characters. Why? They weren't immature. The leads were great, especially Porter, who I loved. The storyline was basic but not really too boring. I've wanted this book for quite a while, and while I have to admit I was a teeny bit disappointed, I honestly still enjoyed reading this book. I guess my expectations were just too high.
I'm giving this a 3.5-ish to .8? I have no idea lol.
