What a very unexpected sweet read! I have a arsenal of ready to read books in my pockets but the blurb of this book got my attention so I pushed it forward to be by next read.Sedona is a sweet girl who plans out every detail of her day as well as her future. She doesn't do well with changes to her detailed scheduled days. Her "squirts" are more like obsessions or OCD but tend to only compliment her personality just right. She works hard on her studies and refuses to let anything or one distract her from her goals. Although shy, she surrounds herself with great friends.. Tanya, Nalee, and her childhood best friend Kieran. Which let me say, I could of just swooped in and taken Kieran off her hands. ;)Zander is the all American football star. With famous parents and himself known as the wunderkid, he finds himself at the mercy of college websites and rumors. He's not necessary a playboy but tends to be a serial dater and doesn't get to involved with women. He knows what he wants out of life and although his parent wish he would of went down a different path they are still very supportive.Sedona literally is knocked off her feet when she first meets Zander. Zander never having issues with going up to women finds himself shy and unsure with her. As they finally connect after a few misunderstandings that stood in their way they begin a relationship that is full of firsts for both of them...I found their love story very cute. Yes, their were obstacles in their way but was glad that the author didn't drag each one of them out where you were pulling your hair out. The conflicts were real but was refreshing to see that most of the time they rose above the BS. I love books with angst but its nice to just read a book that doesn't emphasis the whole book on these conflicts. At times I wanted to shake Sedona and point her in the right direction. She would be so wrapped up in her plans it would drive me crazy. Zander couldn't of been a better leading man. Yummy with a capital Y!This book is about love, surprises, and stepping out of your comfort zone. Learning that happiness doesnt have to come out of your daily planner but the little things that pop up can make your life so much better. Let me just say that the last paragraph just threw me for a loop! I felt cheated somehow! What If?? I never seen that coming and am still wondering why that was thrown in there.. That little paragraph could of been such an interesting addition to the story if it was in the first half of the book. I feel cheated somehow.. ;)I would of gave the book 5 stars but the grammar and spelling was a bit annoying. Nothing a good editing couldnt fix right up. I found myself having to rearrange a sentence myself for it to make sense.Overall a great little read and hope Anne Leigh does a follow up on Kieran (especially) and the rest of their quirky little gang.
