** Cross Posted on Goodreads **OMG. I mean, OMG. This book was AWESOME. There is something to be said about an author that can just make you smile and laugh all the freaking way thru a romance novel. I'm sure people who were watching me read this on my lunch break (scandalous!) thought I was a bit nuts for just grinning like a fool for an hour.So, we've got Lilliana (Lilly) and Tucker (Tuck). Two amazingly headstrong, independent people. It's so much more awesome because they talk like real people, and make fun of each other like real people, and have fun sex like real people. Are you getting the trend here? This was less one of those 'birds a-chirping, sun a-shining, prince charming on his dashingly white steed a-rescuing' stories and more what I think could happen to you or down the street. Is that sexy to you? Because it is to me. And so very refreshing to read.Lilly was a hilarious character, with some gut-busting one liners. Remind me to be more like her in life. And Tuck ... whoooo, this is a type of guy I could see myself falling for. Passionate and ambitious, with just a touch of ego. I didn't really like him at first, but I warmed up super quickly to him.The fact that the girl doesn't get railroaded is spectacular as well. The shifting POVs are done wonderfully, no confusion to be had and both sides of the story flowed quite well. The only reason I put this book down is because I feel asleep with it in my hands ... but it was also 2 a.m... I would have finished this all at once if it wasn't for needing stupid sleep!It's official -- I'm a huge fan of this author now! Can't wait for the next books!
