If you are looking for a sweet, some parts spicy, romantic story of two level-headed mature people, this book is one to pick up.  While both Ally and Jackson have been dealt some hard blows (some more past than present), this isn't one of those stories of unbelievable angst that seems to be running rampant in so many contemporary romances.  Jackson is a really honorable upstanding 28 year old guy. 25 year old Ally, while a little stuck up the first night, quickly matures and sees the error of her ways.  Attracted to each other in a limited situation, they decide to embark on just a fling. But his isn't one of those insta-love that's really lust plots--the pair's feeling are very believable, and their interactions are a well done blend of romance and desire.  It's not hard to see how/why the two fall in love and most readers will recognize it before they do and find themselves rooting for them. Ally and Jackson both try to do the right things, even at times when it seems like they'll have to sacrifice their happy ever after. Told through alternating first person POV, I loved reading about their time together, and there was just the right amount of action to keep you reading to find out how it was all going to work out. And as they neared the end of their two weeks and I neared the end of the book, I was hanging on by a thread waiting for them to stay together. In fact, my only real complaint would be that the story was a little longer and the ending, with the details of how it all worked out, not so rushed. To be clear, it's not a short read, it was just that their story is easy to get engaged with, and I really wanted to keep reading more about them. I hope the author considers a sequel for this pair.
