While reading this book I felt happy, I laughed out loud. One of my favorite quotes is “ So help me, if you apologize for kissing me, I will stab you with the scissors that came with my new desk set.” “ I wouldn't dream of it.” I also loved how the characters all went together. This is my first book by Arlene Hittle and it definitely will not be my last. It's a very fast paced story, I couldn't put it down. I read this book in less than one day! Arlene is a very talented author!!
