Yes please
I really enjoyed this book. Loved the characters, the story lines. It’s was a clean romance book but it did not feel it was trying to hard to be one. The dramatic turning point did not feel to over the top which is always the case with romance books.
I wanted to use the audio book from kindle unlimited but I wanted to devour it to much for that. Switched to reading it and finished in about a day. Could not put this book down.

I received this book in my Bookworm Box subscription this month and was instantly captured by the blurb, and so I downloaded it (since it's in Kindle Unlimited, and I don't read my paperbacks). I liked it a lot more than I had expected to!
Chase is an actor who has not had the easiest upbringing. But neither has Zoe. When Zoe replies to a Twitter question, he likes her honesty in her response. With a lot of luck and coincidences, these two meet and begin a friendship that turns into more.
I loved the premise of this story. I liked Chase's character a lot, and liked most of everything about Zoe, with the exception of her keeping her relationship a secret from her best friends because she's worried about her reaction. The writing was done very well; there were parts that I think dragged on a bit, and the ending seemed a bit rushed, but overall the pace was good. I will definitely consider other books by Sariah Wilson!

I had some doubts about this book because what it was about, but hey it was free so I decided to try it. I was pleasantly surprised! I mean, I read it in 2 days. Very easy read. I really enjoyed the main character, Zoe. Her introvert personality combined with her virginity made for a believable person. I thought Chase came across flat at first but I liked him by the end.

This story sucked me in from the first page. Sparks fly with these two right from the start. I loved the chemistry in this sweet romance!
I thought that the integration of tweets and texts was a fun addition. This book had me grinning from ear to ear the whole time.
I enjoyed that for a fluff romance the characters had more depth. It made them very relatable and likeable. Zoe is witty and smart and Chase is sweet and swoony. I liked the build in their relationship and that everything wasn’t smooth sailing, so it wasn’t predictable. A great read!
Content: Clean romance, kissing
Language: None
Violence: None
Religious: No

This went from fine to really bad and I listened to the audiobook at 3.5x speed just to make it end. The characters are insanely immature but when Zoe started going into these jealous fits when he literally explained what he was going to do beforehand... like she is supposed to be late college but she acts like a tween the entire book. This book seems targeted to religious people or tweens. It's super heavy handed on abstinence before marriage (because of the DISEASES guys. clearly safe sex is impossiblezzzz!!!!). Then she started getting all pissy and worried when he only kisses her forehead (omggg guyzz does he like me!?!? jfc this was so painful to read). Like WHAT DOES SHE WANT!? She told him no sex - any guy is gonna interpret that as no physical contact at all. She didn't clearly state what is or isn't ok (kissing, touching, hell why is oral off limits?? this is literally never discussed).
This book was shit. And then the ending and how she gets outed were super dumb as well.
Zoe tweets at her celebrity love Chase Covington and he replies then internet stalks her. Zoe's friend creates a situation where they meet in person. She had recently lost her BABYSITTING (more tween shit) job and he offers for her to be is go-girl (picking up dry cleaning and shit). Tons of internal monologue of "does he like me or not? He's so famous, there's no way he could like me!" until he's finally forced to say uh yea we're more than friends and she has to admit she's celibate because her mom got pregnant with her at 15 and her friend had a pregnancy scare and her former teacher got a STD (GASP OMGZZ lmao)! Then Chase says well because his mom has been married multiple times he never wants to get married. But they agree to take it day by day anyway. Then the most ridiculous dates proceed to happen - of course the first place she wants to go is Disneyland, does not surprise me at all she would be a Disney adult.
The ocean non-profit she works for is what outs her. Her coworker / fellow intern Noah looks at her laptop (she didn't lock it nor did it ever occur to her to password protect any of her shit) and sees all of her private relationship stuff with Chase. The non-profit is struggling financially and they want to pressure Chase to donate. Then a confrontation happens with the non-profit, Chase and Zoe and he blows up at her, the press gets involved, more dumb stuff. Chase eventually apologizes and they get married later and have kids.
