Everyone of Kelli's fridays are booked but she's as lonely as she's ever been. She is safe and the good girl that all the parents want their daughters to be like and their boys to marry, so Kelli decides to profit from that by being everyones alibi for a price. In Sundale all the kids have trust funds and fear they will loose them if they bring home the wrong girl or guy so they hire Kelli and Kelli provides the perfect alibi for every occasion. Kelli's Friday night's are spend playing Halo with her online friend and planning her life with the money she is earning. Her parents ignore her and are gone more times than not.So on one Friday when Kelli is an "alibi" her friend asks her to go out and Kelli reluctantly agrees, but when she gets to the pool room she see's someone she knows and hides. There she meats a cocky and bossy(though cute) Chase who rubs her all the wrong ways and seems to like not only her but her best friend as well. leaving with gum in her hair Kelli never wants to see chase again. But Chase has other plans, and Kelli's best friend Sadie is all for it and happily helps.Soon Kelli discovers that Chase isn't as cocky and confident as she thought and she finds herself drawn to him more and more, and when she finds out that her Halo friend and Chase are connected Kelli starts seeing Chase for what he really is. As Chase and Kelli spend more time together Kelli discovers that Chase has a lot of secrets he hides, and that Chase is worming his way into her heart. As Kelli tries to keep Chase at a distance emotionally she starts to realize that she won't be happy living the life she has because she hasn't really lived till she met Chase. And when Chase asks Kelli to give it all up for him Kelli will have to decide if she wants to live her life or watch as others live theirs.This was a really cute and funny book. Kelli's internal and sometimes external dialogue was hilarious and had me laughing regularly through this book. Chase was a great hero who had a devastating past that made him understand love and loss and fear both, He hid behind his armor with Kelli because she was nothing he ever expected and then found himself being healed by her. Kelli and Chase both grow and discover love and life in this book, Cassie Mae not only had me laughing but she also had me in tears in parts of this book. She writes funny and heart breaking effortlessly that made this book a perfect summer read that I enjoyed from beginning to end. My only comment would be that I would consider this book YA not NA.**thank you NetGallery for the ARC copy of this book**
