Janna Marie (jannamarie) | 548 comments Trisha and I are reading this!

Feel free to join in!


Janna Marie (jannamarie) | 548 comments Okay, Trisha, it is 366 pages. How much do you want to read?

Trisha | 30284 comments chapter 10, 36%? Is that too much??


Janna Marie (jannamarie) | 548 comments Um.. No, it's not too much!! LOL

Trisha | 30284 comments okay :) let's set for that. if you get farther, then no worries, just let me know how far

since we are on different time frames, I have time tonight to catch up if we're stopping at a cliffhanger! LOL!

fingers crossed this one is good! at least this one shouldn't be a tearjerker! :D


Janna Marie (jannamarie) | 548 comments I'll try not to go too far ahead.. Unlike Hopeless... I started and never stopped. LOL

Us? Reading a book that's NOT a tear jerker? All is not right with the world.. LOL!!! It'll be a nice break :)


Janna Marie (jannamarie) | 548 comments Okay, so I read an extra chapter. I stopped before chapter 12.

Chapter 10 seemed to stop in the middle of something, so I went ahead with chapter 11. Though, strangely, I think it's still unfinished.

I'll be back on later, in the evening your time like usual, so we can chat about it. I need some sleep before my shift in the morn. I want to give you a chance to read it since we only started an hour ago LOL.

Trisha | 30284 comments wow...yeah, 10 does stop in the middle of something good

I'm going to keep going! LOL!

this is better than I thought it would be. it's sad to say I had pretty low hopes for this one (probably why it took me so long to pick it up!LOL!) but I'm actually enjoying it.

but I'm little nervous about meddling little sister Anna. She may just ruin Greg's chance after he gets her :D

10 chapters tomorrow or more? less? we may just need to finish this thing! :) LOL

what do you think so far??


Janna Marie (jannamarie) | 548 comments I had pretty low hopes for this one too. THe only reason I am reading it is for the author challenge. LOL So, I understand completely!

I am nervous about Anna too! Especially, since Greg is going to have a hard time gaining trust as it is. I am sure she will find out about Anna and Greg's scene eventually.. that'll be rough.

I think we can finish it, eh? :D

I like it so far though! I am pleasantly surprised. I was wary the first few chapters.. but the more I got to know about the characters, the more they grew on me.

What do you think of Anna's love interest, the downstairs neighbor? He has no idea what he is getting himself into. LOL

Anna is SOOO pushy.. but it's funny!

Trisha | 30284 comments Well...I'm DONE! yay! and finished the author challenge

I thought it was very cute. You know, I didn't LOVE it but I was pretty surprised I liked it as much as I did.

Anna!! Although I think she's a little reckless with her behavior (going into a strange man's apartment alone! Ack!!!!)...I think she's cute. She's portrayed well. Scared to lose her sister's approval, meddling in her sister's life - perfect behavior of a little sister (especially when they lost their parents).

What do you think of Greg? Max? and Connor??

I think it's funny (but a little frustrating) that Freya is just so stinking stubborn! LOL!


Janna Marie (jannamarie) | 548 comments I see you finished right after me! I didn't think you'd finish it so early or else I wouldn't have gone to bed before chatting with you! LOL

It WAS super cute! Truth be told, like you, I didn't LOVE it either.

Anna was very reckless! Though, I have to admit that she was really freaking cute! The perfect little sister.. I would trade her with my own LOL.

Greg was so adorable! I enjoyed his character the most BECAUSE he was so different. Most stories like this, the male is pining for the woman out of pure lust. Greg really wanted Freya to have and to hold. It was refreshing to read about a guy who has more honorable intentions, even if he reached it through less honorable conditions. LOL!!

Max was SO cute! I think he is a bit demanding, though, that may be exactly what Anna needs in a man.

Connor, eh, I didn't really like him so much. They had nothing in common and was a bit crazy. Why would he say/do whatever Anna suggested? What did he expect, to gain her trust through his fakeness? Ugh!

I enjoyed Freya stubborness. LOL

Trisha | 30284 comments YAY!!! I'm so glad you at least liked it too!!

I never thought I would like it.

So, is it just me or do you think the cover has people on it that seem to be way younger than Frey and Greg were?!?!? I couldn't match up the cover with the story! LOL!

when did they go to the beach?!?!

Janna Marie (jannamarie) | 548 comments Yeah, I didn't expect to like it either. Though, I don't think I'll be dying to read anything else Kate Perry has written because of it.

I know, right?!! The cover DOES NOT match the story, at all. I mean she DID go to the beach with Connor, but it was in the middle of the night. She also had a "beach picnic" in her office with Greg.. but I don't think either of those scenes could lead me to believe that cover. LOL

Trisha | 30284 comments Yeah, I don't think I'll be running out to join Kate Perry fan club either! LOL!


stupid pretty covers ;P


Janna Marie (jannamarie) | 548 comments Agreed! :D


Janna Marie (jannamarie) | 548 comments BTW, I just moved the thread to "COMPLETED".

Feel free to keep chatting if you feel the urge. :D
