This book was a slow start for me, it did pick up and start to get interesting at a little over a quarter of the way through. I did enjoy the read, it was a very interesting story. At times I felt it gave a little too much information. The characters our wonderful, each are so different but it works in the book. The book has a lesson nothing is as it seems, always ask questions, never but never take things as they are but look deeper. It is a lesson most of us forget. I like a book that reminds me of things I have forgotten or over looked. I loved the way Jette and Evan met, how they fell in love and the things they did go through.When reading this book a quote by Sir Walter Scott comes to mind “Oh what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive!” This is good advice which we all should heed to. It is truly a shame Evan did not heed to it.I really like Jette at first then I found her to childish, way to much drama but in fairness I believe 80 percent of people would have handle all the BS in their life’s the way she did. She does get stronger and she does stand by her man, but it takes a lot to get her there. I found her ideas in cooking interesting and plan to look into a few ideas she has given me.Evan is a very strong man, who has to outlive his past. What a past he has, football player who has had too many plays in the bedroom. He wants to start over, get his life together but he must out live his fame and his past. Evan is a very protective of Jette and tries hard to hide things she should know that will hate her. I find most people who are in love would do this. Is it right? No and gets him in tons of trouble.I just loved Auggie, there is nothing better for a women than having a gay best friend. He is so supporting and so fun loving you have to love him. Adam he is a sweetheart and helps Evan in all things in life. At first I didn’t care for him, he was way over protective of Evan but he comes around to be a wonderful character. There are so many wonderful characters in this book, so many give support, they are fun loving and have a blast.There are a lot of music which I enjoyed, so many great songs of today and the past. I found when I wasn't reading the book I was singing the songs in my head. Every Breath You Take-The Police is a wonderful song, I have always loved it. I don’t think I will ever think of it the same again. Jette stalker had that song played for her in the bar, and a short time later she found the note on her car. “Dear Julietter, DID YOU LIKE MY SONG? I MEANT EVERY WORD” I felt everything she felt, when the car started following Jette and I were one. I felt like I was right there with her, my heart started racing, I could feel her excitement and her fear. When I found out who the stalker was I was floored, I never saw that coming.This book moved to fast in a short period of time, it all happens within a month. I find it hard to believe in that short period of time anyone is going to put up money for a business. You buy her a business but never ask her to marry you? It just doesn’t feel right. I did enjoy the story but Jette just had to much drama for me, she never thought things through, jumping in and flying by the seat of her pants. It was mostly about me, me, me. I will have to say by the end of the book she did get her act together and did stand by her man.
