Avery has had a crush on her best friend Lucas' dad since she graduated high school and he has just recently within the last year started to see her more as just the girl next door. The two of them start a secret relationship that at first is purely sexual but soon becomes more. Lucas discovers the two of them together at his sister's engagement party and is pissed and hurt and the two decide to break up. Luckily Lucas' anger doesn't last too long and neither does the break up between Avery and Theo who have fallen in love.

I liked this book. Avery was a little immature and Theo obviously was not but I thought the two overall complimented each other. I was happy to read more about Regan and Wes and I was also happy that Lucas was hooking up with Rory at the end of the book. This book was full of steam and some angst but luckily we got a happy ending.
