Review: Cute young love story...could have been great though!

The characters and premise of this young love story were really good. Molly is a strong, independent and smart young woman who doesn't 'need' a boyfriend but of course, would like to find a special someone. Weston, is a star hockey player with high hopes for a college and pro career and he is known as a bad boy womanizer.  The story begins with Molly in study hall realizing that Weston is checking her out. From there, the romance story develops and I while you can see the romance developing between them, I was still intrigued to see how it would all work out since they really are both good strong characters. It all takes place during their senior year in high school.This could have been such a great story! Both Molly and Weston are great characters and their family dynamics are good as well. Molly's brother is a college hockey player and well known and her cousin is in the NFL. Weston's parents are totally focused on him becoming a college/pro player and his father is really intense about him not having any distractions, including Molly. He is downright rude to her when they first meet her. So, when the story ends and then goes into an epilogue one year later, I was so disappointed. There was so much more that could have been told in their story! You go from Molly and Weston deciding to be an offical couple to on year later and for me, there were so many questions and scenarios that I felt could have been part of their story and made this book a great fun young romance. I felt like this book simply skimmed the surface...and this is an instance where I would have liked to see a second book....even though I am not a fan of cliffhangers by any means. I just feel so strongly that there was more to their story.Overall, if you like young romance with not much angst and it's pretty "clean" but lots of suggestive languange, then I think you would like this book.
