Friday Night Alibi is a very enjoyable read. It is a funny, witty and light-hearted book by Cassie Mae. It is nicely written and I found myself laughing one minute and swooning the next. It flows very nicely and you're able to read it very quickly.The characters in this book are very likeable and the banter between the main characters Kelli and Chase is very amusing. The antic's these two get up to is very relatable to people of their age group. Kelli is 18 and the only child of wealthy parents. She sacrifices her social life, for a fee, to be the alibi for her friends/acquaintances when they want to date people who would not be deemed acceptable partners by their families. This service she provides them with is all to save them losing their precious trust funds. After she meets Chase she is steadily falling for him and is complete denial about her true feelings  for him. I found this aspect of her a little frustrating at times. Chase is 21 and is college studying music. He's a bit of a loner due to the hurt he is suffering from a family tragedy. Chase is hung up on Kelli from the moment they meet. He keeps in constant contact with her best friend, seeking her help to try to win her over. You feel the grief of this character and your heart goes out to him.My criticism of this book is that it felt like it finished all too soon. I thought that more could have been said about this couples future.Overall, it's a funny story and well worth the read. If you're looking for something that is quick and light-hearted then I would recommend this too you.
