New Adult Contemporary
Date Published: 3/15/13
To nineteen-year-old high school dropout Travis Walker, women are like snowflakes-- each one different, but beautiful in her own way. He can charm any girl he meets, and yet down deep he fears he'll always be a loser like his jailbird father. As the landlady threatens to evict him and his sick mother, Travis takes a job he hates and spends his evenings picking up girls at a nearby night spot. When he enlists in a teen program at the local fire station, he finds out he’s amazing at it. Then he meets the smoking hot Kat Summers, enlists Kat’s friend Zoey to help him woo her, and falls in love for the first time ever. But he keeps the details of his life secret. His girl will never love him back if she knows the truth about him….
My Review:
Oh Travis, you are the epitomy of a player who girls want to conform. I absolutely loved reading this book from his perspective. Usually you have the girls view on how the guy gets reformed, but this is so unique in the way that Travis goes from class A Jerk to Nice guy.
If that isn't enough reason to love him, reading about his crap luck since pretty much forever, really gives the reader an even bigger connection to him. You start to not think about the fact that he was a player and more about how he is not more screwed up.
Zoey is such a wonderful Heroine. I absolutely loved her and could not have put together better characteristics in Travis's other half. I think the really are perfect together and their romance is an adorable one.
I will admit I was in TEARS at a point in this story. It is just so sad how much bad luck some people have in life. Really puts things in perspective!
