Review by: Michelle Roethig on Nov. 03, 2012 :
Romantic, Sexy, Sweet, Refreshing!! I couldn't put this book down. I loved Wesley and Oliva as they developed in front of my eyes. I was pulled in from the beginning with their meeting and the pull didn't stop until the last period.

Oliva, heart-broken from her recent breakup, meets Wesley in a string of events that are both funny, heart-wrenching, and sweet. Wesley was easy to love and I was rooting for him from the beginning.

The best part, this story was not only romantic and sexy, but clean! Can you have a romantic, sexy story without all the "garbage" in sex scenes? Yes!!! And Ms. Maravel pulled it off wonderfully!! I was so entranced I felt breathless by the end of their story.

I would have loved to hear what happened to Jerry a little more, his story was the only piece I felt needed explaining more, but it didn't detract horribly from the story.

I will be reading more of her work. Great job, Ms. Marvel!!
