Abby was such a fun character. A little geeky and very sweet with lots of great spunk! I was drawn to her character and struggles of trying to get her best friend Chris to notice her. She's ready to take the next step and do all she can to make him realize she's ready to be more than friends.

Her plans backfire and then cause her to have a somewhat dominoes effect in her life. And surprise she's now lab partners with the one person she never would have chosen to partner with. Shane. The one guy on campus who she has all figured out and knows it's all fun and games for him.

​I read it pretty much straight through. I needed a distraction and this was a delight! I stayed up way past my bedtime enjoying it, laughing out loud and possibly shedding a few tears.

This was a cute, super short story. It was an insta love story which I don’t usually go for but going into it knowing it was a short Read I rather suspected this. Abbey was an ok heroine. She was nerdy, awkward, judgmental and rather rude. She had a lot of growing up to do.
Shane was confident, smart, loyal and all around a great guy that everyone judged. Abbey was harsh on him, but it didn’t stop him from being kind to her. He basically teaches her how to be more approachable, enjoy life and what love really means. Not her image of it with her best friend. Shane made the book for me. I liked his goofy, yet vulnerable character. I also appreciated in the end she went after him. She didn’t mope around waiting for him to come to her. She went for it; running through campus in her pajamas if that meant getting him back. That had me liking her more. Overall I enjoyed it and will be trying more by this author.
