Summary: This is a great book..
Review: I just loved this story..Not only is it a love story.It is funny...It also goes to show you never judge a book by it's cover or what someone else tells you about another person.Also shows you how friends stick togther when one gets hurt but also how strong love is.I hope other readers enjoy this book as much as i did.

Summary: Don't Waste your Time
Review: The other day I found myself with nothing to read and so picked this book up off my shelf hoping for a few hours of mindless entertainment. I should be so lucky!
Immediately the author's style seemed choppy and trite, and as I went on I became more and more annoyed by her excessive use of the exclamation point. She turned about every third or fourth statement into an exclamation, which at most times was completely inappropriate.
As well as this terrible grammar, Fran, the heroine, is dull and irritating, and her best friend Rosie, for whom she sets up this "Valentine Vendetta", is truly awful. Indeed Rosie turns out to be a lying, self-indulgent drunk who has NO redeeming virtues that would inspire such blind and misplaced loyalty from her friend Fran.
The one redeeming quality of this book is the hero, Sam Lockhart, who is handsome, mysterious, and full of good humour once you get below the surface. But why this all-around good guy would fall for the uptight and dull heroine is truly beyond me.
Anyway, I wish I had the 2 hours it took me to read this book back, ANYTHING I did would have been more productive. So take my word for it and save yourself the frustration.
