Summary: A real let down
Review: I agree with the other reviewers. This book was a real let down. I thought it sounded really good but once I started it I just couldnt get interested. There was just something about the book that was so... bland. It just wasnt written well. I was reading both this book and The Nine Hour Date (which I loved) and I couldnt help comparing the two. This is one of the worst Love Story books I've read, and I've read most of them. If you're a fan of the series you may want to read it, but if you're just looking for a good teen romance, dont even give this bood a glance!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: A major letdown
Review: I totally agree with the other person who reviewed this book. Now take our word for it. For me, I have read the majority of the books in the Love Stories Series. I know a good (or poor)book when I read one.
From the back of the book, it looked really good. I was really looking forward to reading it. But the truth? I had to struggle through it. There were times when I actually WANTED to put down the book!! Now that has NEVER happened to me! Often I can't put it down, but I have to! For the first couple chapters there is hardly any written contact between the two. The book would say that they talked, but never give you any insight into the conversation, or what is going on. On top of that, it's a story that has been done SO MANY TIMES!! The average story- boy meets girl, two different social classes. Or boy meets girl, girl interested in guy to spite her parents. If you're going to do something that's been done before, you gotta do it good!!! It seemed like a poor combination of Nick & the Nerd and The Nine Hour Date. A really poor combination. I was truly disappointed. And what's ironic, is that all three books are part of the His. Hers. Theirs. Series. If you're only reading for reading's sake, then this book would do, but if you're really looking to enjoy the book, and become part of the lives of the protagonists, then look somewhere else.

Summary: Slow track to... nowhere!
Review: This book seemed really cool to me when I read the synopsis, but when I read it, it seemed to be going nowhere really fast. It takes a lot of patience to get into it. I love plenty of drama in my romance novels. Nice and juicy. It's not good unless you can taste it, and i get the taste of water. I expected more of a fizzy soda pop drink. Really, to me, its a disappointment.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: This was an OK book.
Review: This book was alright. The plot of the book has been done so many times. Boy and girl of different class like each other, parents disapprove. In the book you have Joely, the rich white girl with the disapproving parents, she seems to be a sorta weak charecter but truthfully inside her lies a strong girl. And then there's Ricky, the HOTT!!! Italian kid with the motorcycle, tattoo(an eagle on his forearm), and leather jacket. He's your typical bad boy, all his friends care about are babes, booze, and sex, and Ricky's quite experienced in all three. He is alot deeper than his friends and this is brought out alot more when he becomes sorta friends with Joely. They become sorta friends because they have a common complaint in each of they're families: there is going to be a new addition, a baby. And it goes on from there. Over time Ricky starts to like Joely, while Joely has liked him from the beginning. So Ricky asks Joely on a date. Things keep keeping the two of them from going on their 1 date, but they finally get it right in the end. The story drags on a little, it should have went faster to be more enjoyable, and definitely could have been better, but I still enjoyed it. This book isn't a book that you won't be able to put down. But it was still an OK book
