I read these books in two days, they were just that good. In fact, I stayed up until 2 a.m. to finish! I really enjoyed everything about this story: it was unique (unlike anything I've ever read), funny, lighthearted and so cute! I laughed out loud in some places and found myself shaking my head in other places. Simone is a girl who works as a bank teller and yet has no sense of finances. She has no savings and is tired of dating schmucks who show up for their dates wearing dirty clothes (LOL, you'll see what I mean when you read the book) and make her pay for her own meals. She's determined to change all that by finding the "perfect" guy to take to her best friend's wedding. In fact, she makes it her mission, with very funny results.Simone has a carefree way of looking at life, and her justification for why she does things is hilarious. Some of the scenes made me laugh so hard, such as her date with the cowboy. I won't spoil it, but that is one of the funniest scenes in a book that I've ever read. I know the author says on her website that some of the things she writes about happened in real life, and I wondered if that dating scene had actually happened to her or someone she knew. If it did, then I sure feel sorry for her--LOL!  Anyway, I thoroughly enjoyed reading about Simone's escapades, and I found her to be a very likeable character. Her "voice" and way of seeing things cracked me up the whole way through.One of the things I like most about this author is that she writes in a fun, witty, quirky style. She really is "one of a kind." Additionally, her books are always clean and polished and well written. This book was a refreshing, enjoyable read, just like her other books. I recommend it for light, easy reading, and if you're looking for humor and wacky characters and a unique storyline, then this book has it all.
