I usually don't like books about college students that end with an HEA - it just feels unrealistic to me,  especially as one of the college students is 18!  However Heidi Cullinan is an author I really like and trust,  so I gave it ago.It's a very sweet book,  but not mawkish.  I found it delightful,  and just loved both Walter and Kelly. Both had strengths and weaknesses and both were improved by the relationship.  I even gave in and decided to believe in the HEA,  at least I want them to stay together!  I loved how Kelly felt about his allergies,  how Walter felt about his parents,  how Kelly's family reacted to the Christmas hamper.  I loved the details and felt that the relationship,  although it started very fast,  felt grounded and real to me.  Heidi Cullinan usually writes very explicit BDSM books,  so if you like this one,  don't expect the others to be as tame! I find her to be a confident and competent writer,  who usually has a scene or moment in the book that just does it for me.
