Synopsis: When it comes to relationships, Remy doesn't mess around. After all, she's learned all there is to know from her mother, who's currently working on husband number five. But there's something about Dexter that seems to defy all of Remy's rules. He certainly doesn't seem like Mr. Right. For some reason, however, Remy just can't seem to shake him. Could it be that Remy's starting to understand what those love songs are all about?

I loved it so much, I think I went aww about 20 times at the end. It was so cute. It was once again a love story for non believers. And it hit close to home. I could really connect with Remy as a person because sadly, in the world of romance I am a lot like that. But thats what made the book so special. Finally a romance for girls like me who are picky, have rules, and just cant stand certain things being certain ways.  Not many people would understand Remy, because they are the types that sit on their couches reading romance novels going, "Thatll be me some day." I loved her mom, and her several broken romances. She reminded me of the classic example of a romance writer. I simply loved it. I could totally imagine her name on a Harlequin Romance novel cover. This book was just amazing. It was once again, a tale of love for non believers. You may not ever find love, or you may convince yourself of that, but hey this book may just change your mind :)

I LOVED this book! It was my first Sarah read and I fell in LOVE. I loved how persistent Dexter was and I love love LOVED Remy's attitude. It hit close to home for me too. And I love how the ending wasn't happily-ever-after, but it was realistic.

Yup! Happily ever after gets old after a while. But realistic is always good :)
