4.5 StarsI love stories where opposites are thrown together. Situations where people who wouldn't even register on one another's radar are forced to work together. Of course it's even better when they fall for each other. A good example of this is Perfect Chemistry (loved that book!) This story is not as intense as Perfect Chemistry, I'd say it's more on the fun side, but it's still really good!Jaden McEntyre is your typical over-achiever: Harvard bound, cheerleader, perfect attendance, save-the-world causes, and jock-boyfriend, you get the picture. Parker Whalen is the opposite, bad boy reputation, leather jacket, rides a motor-cycle, no plans for college, broken family and rumors of a past arrest.When Jaden is late one day to her English class she finds that all have been partnered up for an assignment. No one picked bad boy Parker so the teacher, of course, pairs them together and the sparks begin to fly. There is the typical push and pull between Jaden and Parker, which is a lot of fun, but there is also discovery and growth, especially on Jaden's side. Slowly she starts seeing that her "perfect" life may not be so "perfect "and keeping up appearances is no longer so important to her. However, when Jaden starts falling for Parker, he pulls away. We start to discover that appearances on Parker's side aren't all what they seem to be either. Have no fear, this story wraps up nicely. There is a twist you don't see coming that takes care of everything! I don't want to spoil anything, so I won't elaborate.I loved this story! Yes, the concept has been done before but this one is really good. The romance is a slow build between Jaden and Parker *swoon-sigh-swoon again*. There are plenty of ahwww,very sweet moments as well as one steamy scene!
