I'll say it,  I want to marry this book! One of the better books I've read this year.  I have a feeling that it will blow all my future reads out of the water.  It was not only fun and witty, nut also emotional.  I felt like I was sucked into one amazing romantic comedy.  One that I would watch again and again.  You might actually see me reciting all the best lines while reading it as well.  This was one epic reunion of friends, lovers, and the ultimate family.  These characters either were either going to pull you away from stepping in front of a bus or push you in front of it.  Luckily these characters had no problem rolling with the punches because in the end the prize was so much greater.  What would you do to erase your mistakes for your first love?We meet Mina in the beginning of the book she is working on her PH.D and just trying to get through each day without tripping over her own feet.  To top things off she receives a wedding invitation to her ex Lucas and high school friends wedding in Costa Rica.  Incidentally Mina's dream wedding, but Lucas isn't marrying Mina he's marrying someone else.  Mina is still in love with Lucas and has no intention of attending the joyous affair.  Then he shows up, Ben who is Lucas' best friend and the guy in high school who annoyed her to no end.  He has a proposition for Mina, he will help her break up the wedding and all she has to do is accept.  Ben thinks Lucas is making a huge mistake and is even willing to pretend he is in a relationship with Mina to show Lucas that Mina won't be waiting in the wings any more.  Mina and Ben begin their ridiculous pairing and even their friends wonder if it's for real.  But could these two possibly fall for each other while Mina is trying to win back her first and only love?Yes,  I fell in love with Ben he was everything that I loved and yet everything I was afraid of at the same time.  He was smart but the depth of his personality was one I was instantly addicted to.  Mina wasn't your typical woman she loved and lost.  Then she was given this opportunity and although she was pushed into it she had the support from her closest friends.  What true friend wouldn't tell you to give up on true love?  Lucas was hopelessly in love with Mina, but sometimes things just don't work out like we plan.  This may sound like a love triangle but was far from one.  It was a reunion of the past.  One full of revelations and new beginnings.Best part of this book was the dialogue between these friends.  They all knew each other so well.  They could relive the past and be close again.  The shenanigans were beyond hilarious and I was a bit envious of all their fun.  Honestly if Mina was going to embark on a do or die situation she was definitely surrounded by the perfect people.I will positively recommend this book.  This book gave me everything that I was looking for and so much more.  I wasn't sure if Emily was going to break my heart in the end or build it up.  It was far from predictable.  A smart, fun, enjoyable, and highly emotional book that you will sure to fall in love with.  I can't wait to read more from this author and will surely be reading this again.
