I enjoyed this book, but I didn't love it. All of us girls can relate to pining over a guy who doesn't even know you exist. That is exactly the situation that Maddie finds herself in. After a friends talks her into a makeover, Owen (her boss aka the guy she is pining over) finally begins to see her as a woman.Unfortunately, he plays totally oblivious at first. Then he gives in and in a moment of passion, completely shuts Maddie down with the "we really shouldn't do this" speech. What bothered me? Instead of going home, eating a pint of ice cream, and crying all night, Maddie jumps in bed with someone else. It is explained in the book as she was trying to practice to get better at sex. Umm... no. If you are in love with someone, you don't jump in bed with someone else. It really turned me off to her character.The story does end well, and I like the characters as a couple. It was just that one thing that made me not love the book so much.
