Hmm. Maybe it was your review that made me pause because of the cliffhanger ending? I’d love to see an author profile of Cabot.

I did read it (and reviewed it for AAR). The book starts off with everything going great guns with her and Luke and then over time it deteriorates a bit. Then it ends with a bit of a cliffhanger over who exactly is the man she wants in her life. Really, I didn't expect it all to go off in a new direction, but if I'd been thinking about the pattern of Cabot's other heroes, I'd not have been so surprised. She really likes to do brilliant - but slightly inaccessible - hunky boys who keep their thoughts to themselves. I should do an author profile on Cabot. I've read and enjoyed so many of her books.

Did you read the second one? I wasn’t quite sure what had happened that night between Chaz and Lizzie and maybe that was the intent. There’s definitely a skill to making the good guy more appealing than the bad guy in this world of uber alpha male heroes.

Thanks for this review, Jane. I’m anxiously awaiting this one, and am glad to know I correctly guessed the spoiler. I really enjoy how well Meg Cabot writes the slightly-nerdy-but-still-hot good guy hero.

I’ll have to make a note to add this one to AAR’s Friends list.
