[Vicki]

I've been wanting to read this one. At this time there are "no copies available" at my library, so keep your fingers crossed!

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

I loved this one! Enjoy! Have you read her other contemporary, ?

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

Fingers crossed Vicki!!!


Yes, Jacquelyn, I read her other one and LOVED it! I was worried this one wouldn't be as good but I'm excited to read with buddies :D

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

That's great! This one is amazing as well! :D

[Amanda]

[Divya]

I have recently read this, and I loved it guys! Hope you all like it too! :)

[Amanda]

10 chapters in. This is cute so far.

Charlie (view spoiler)[I am glad that her Dad is making her get a job to pay off her speeding ticket. I just wish that she did lie to her boss about her Mom. I think that as we go on and she eventually tells the truth that she will end up being someone she can turn to for guidance. (hide spoiler)]

Braden (view spoiler)[it's sad that his father is an alcoholic and that he takes his anger out on his family. (hide spoiler)]

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

WOOHOO Go Amanda! I'm going to finish Opposition and then start - probably in about an hour :)

[Amanda]

This is a really quick read. I will read more when I get home from work.

[Amanda]

I stayed up late last night reading because I could not put this down so the spoilers are through chapter 31.

Braden (view spoiler)[I wonder what it was that he was going to tell Charlie that night at the fence when she assumed it was going to be telling her that he liked her?. I wonder if it's something about her Mom?. Also, even though he implied that he did not like her I think that he does and seeing her with Evan is what will make him realize that. (hide spoiler)]

Charlie (view spoiler)[I agree with what Braden has been telling her. She should not have to pretend to be someone else to make Evan like her. If he can't accept her as she is she is better off without him. I love that he brothers are so protective of her. (hide spoiler)]

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

I'm 10 chapters in

Braden (view spoiler)[ he's cute and I like that he treats her like one of the guys
but he's starting to get flirty :) (hide spoiler)]

Charlie (view spoiler)[ honestly, I don't really like her right now
she's pretty selfish and kind of rude. I know she's lost her mom but she's kind of....cold. I look forward to seeing her grow. I'm so glad she got this job but I hope she doesn't end up doing anything worse to the owner than lie to her about her mom :( (hide spoiler)]

[Amanda]

I agree, Charlie (view spoiler)[I thought that she was cold and selfish in the beginning too. The fact that she did not even care that she got another ticket and that she uses her dads name to get out of them is pretty low. Making her get a job and pay for the ticket and the hike in insurance will teach her that her actions have consequences. (hide spoiler)]

[Amanda]

Finished.

Charlie (view spoiler)[I wish that she told her boss sooner about her mother, she put her in an awful situation when her father found out about the ad. I am glad though that she found out the truth about her mother it would be hard to fin out about the suicide and then to learn that you have repressed that for all these years. (hide spoiler)]

Braden (view spoiler)[he is sweet. I liked his character and am glad that he confronted his father in the end. (hide spoiler)]

This was cute. Can't wait to see what you guys think.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

20 chapters

yikes (view spoiler)[ I think Bradon might be telling her something about her mom...and how she died.
did she....maybe commit suicide?? (hide spoiler)]

fence (view spoiler)[ I'm so sad that she thought he was going to confess to liking her
and instead he was talking about something else
that must be tough for her (hide spoiler)]

Charlie (view spoiler)[ I like how much she's growing
she's still lying...but at least she is trying new things and being nice (hide spoiler)]

Ethan (view spoiler)[ I wonder if Ethan will be just the thing to push Braden into admitting he likes her (hide spoiler)]

Yay! i'm glad you're loving it!!

I'm 30 chapters in too!!

Braden (view spoiler)[ I'm kind of mad at him. he's treating her like crap for Evan. And maybe he's right. But she's right too. he should be there for her not tell her what to do
and what about what he's doing with Amber?!? (hide spoiler)]

Charlie (view spoiler)[ I'm glad she's sorting this out on her own
and not just jumping into a relationship with Ethan (hide spoiler)]

[Amanda]

Braden (view spoiler)[oh I agree, I get what he was telling her and agree that she should not change who she was when she was with Ethan, he just handled it badly. (hide spoiler)]

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

and I'm done! aww! I loved it!!

Charlie (view spoiler)[ she handled all of this well. I'm so glad she had her brothers there with her (hide spoiler)]

Braden (view spoiler)[ LOL! I love how they all gave him a hard time and then after he left they all joked about how long they knew! ha! i was so funny and cute.
Yes, I like her with Braden more. Ethan seemed to want someone who was not as rough and tumble and independent as Charlie was (hide spoiler)]

I'm so glad you loved it too Amanda!
I can't wait to see what Vicki thinks!

[Amanda]

I know, I thought it was cute and sweet. I can't wait to see what Vicki thinks either :)
