This book was so unexpected - in a good way! When I read the description of the story I thought it would be a good light read for me. A nice break from the heavily angst ridden rock stars, billionaires, bad-boy, and alpha-male characters I seem to come across constantly. The characters were deeper and had more depth than many adults I have met in life. The characters are in high school but that did not dissuade me from relating to them. At some point in our lives we have to figure out where we stand within our immediate families. Mia and Ryan had to navigate the torrential waters of High School all while falling in love and figuring out the direction of their lives after high school. It would have been easy for Mia to lose herself in hot guy Ryan but I admired her courage to admit to herself and Ryan that she needed to take care of her own life before she would be any good with him. I felt her struggle throughout the book and was rooting for the couple hoping for their own Happily Ever After. What struck me about this story was its hidden depth of emotions. I am looking forward to reading more from this author!
