I wanted to love this book and it was a quick read but it fell short in a lot of ways that I wanted it to excel but most of all...IT NEEDED TO BE DUAL POV!!! A book with a love triangle of this nature needs to have both the characters POVs because the entire book I was supposed to believe that Dyl was doing all these great things to "win" Juliet's heart and that he had a real shot at winning against Caden but everytime he appeared to her it just seemed forced and odd which made her "choosing Caden" irrelevant and not shocking in the least. Also, for Dylan to then in the third part be like....oh yea I'm not actually into guys. It was shocking and seemed out of nowhere when we could've gone through the ark of his obvious internalized homophobia. 
Honestly, this book just missed the mark and while it was quick, fun read it wasn't the best thought out.
