I prefer a good scorching romance or a fast paced thrill ride, so I wasn't sure about this angsty romance with a cancer patient. In the spirit of Breast Cancer Awareness month, I decided to give this one a go-- as I was intrigued by the 'best friends with a rock star roommate who rushes to her side when she's diagnosed' angle. The book was fantastic. The subject matter was handled in a matter of fact way- realistic, yet with humor and positive attitude. It wasn't a joy ride for the characters, but it was a realization of their feelings for each other, their strong friendship, and their acceptance that there is a little more than roommate feelings for each other. Love blossoms and strengthens as they handle chemo, hair loss, reduced sex drive, cranky feelings, guilt, and all the gamut of cancer pitfalls. It's an HEA book with heart. Great read.
