This was my first book by this author and I was thoroughly surprised. Brandon and Natalie meet by chance, a very funny chance. He pops her in the head with a beer bottle while drunk and so begins their very odd and sometimes one sided friendship. Brandon is in a relationship with Sophia when they meet. He loves her but doesn't want to take the next step with her. Natalie doesn't want to be his friend but she ends up listening to his rants and raves about Sophia and some how they become thick as thieves. It's a long story but I like that you get to see how their relationship develops and the trials they have to go through. Unfortunately race is an issue with their families and you want to believe that in the 2000's that it's not but it is. They not only have that hurdle but they also have to deal with figuring out their feelings for each other and how to deal with that. Brandon is ready to deal with whatever is to come, but Natalie has so many doubts that she can't see what's in front of her. It takes a lot of growing up and working together for them to figure it out. I can't wait for the next book!!
