This book is just simply fabulous! It has all the right bells and whistles. From the prologue on I was immensely entertained! It's a book about choices and some rather scandalous activities with those choices, but every word is delicious!Sophie! Sophie! Sophie!! Ahhh... she is by far my favorite charcter. She has her little set of problems. Being engaged to a man that is far from her own version of Prince Charming. And then her version of Prince Charming shows up in her life again! What's a girl to do? She's quite literally swept off of her feet while trying to maintain a level head. I had to laugh at some of the mistakes she made but in the end she is a marvelous character who just has a rough go at the biggest decision of life.Her friend Rachel is also a darling. She's definitely not a level headed friend, the one where you go to for advice to actually KEEP you grounded. Oh no, Rachel does quite the opposite. She reminds Sophie, again and again, that you only live once and although your conscience may yell at you, you might as well have a heck of a fun time while living! Love this girl!Tim and Dan are the two boyfriends. Oi... I can't tell you who my favorite is here, you'll have to pick for yourself, as does Sophie.I do have to say, this was a remarkably easy read and full of flavor and fun! The plot flowed so well, character arcs and all. I laughed and cried and didn't want this fabulous story to end. Even though the ending was well worth the ride! The entire thing was A+!! Even better, part two of this fabulous series is scheduled to be published Feb 7, 2013! YAY!!!Although the above excerpt is awesome, I had to just give a little bit more of Sophie. She really is awesome...Tim looked at me closely, rubbing my hand. "I really, really meant to pop that question over the weekend. You know, propose."Oh did I ever? O course I knew. I had been waiting for such a long time. I looked at him expectantly. Don't say anything, I told myself sternly, don't break the mood.Tim gave a shaky laugh. "But you know what?"What? What? What could he possibly say now except, "Will you marry me?""I forgot the ring." He let that hang for a few seconds, trying to gauge my reaction. I had none forthcoming. How was I supposed to respond? Was he proposing, or was he not?He obliged with a clarification. "So anyway, I forgot the ring, and you can't propose to the woman you love without a ring. And so that's why I didn't. I thought you might like to know."I blinked at him. I could feel my eyes open and close slowly, like a cartoon character's in slow motion. Open. Close. Open. Close. Blink. Blink. Blink.Inwardly, I screamed. Why tell me? Why tell me such a thing? I was utterly lost for words.
