review 1: This book gets a 3.5Okay it wasn't bad at all, it was a pretty swell book. But I didn't fall head over heels in love with the characters. They were cool or whatever, but not my favorite. I liked the nickname Hanes, that was really cute and I liked paul the bestfriend. In the beginning I knew that Alyssa and james had got together, because really it was so fucking obvious. And at the end, Dylan way over reacted. I get he was feeling some type of way, but no let her talk to you. Don't hang up the phone. Most of thr characters really wernt that developed like Lora and Derrick. And there parents we heard about Dylans sad quite a lot. But Ziahs parents were practically non existent especially her dad. Why didn't she have daddy issues?
review 2: First off, let me say... more that I'm beginning to think of this writing team as the Preston & Childs of teen romance. They're that good together. Dylan doesn't do relationships. After watching his parents marriage blow up when he was little, he and older brother Derrick formed the Gibson Boys pact: No serious relationships and no happily ever after. Ziah is tall, blonde, serious and in a pretty dull relationship with James. Both are top notch students, planning on going to medical school. When James gets invited to a no-costume Halloween party, he talks Ziah into going, but gets delayed by an internship. When she arrives and sees Dylan with his arm curled around his current hook-up, both of them get that electric sensation, but don't want to go anywhere near it. Ziah doesn't feel comfortable at events like this and when she heads for the porch to find a soda. Dylan surprises her. She tuns quickly and his beer soaks her white t-shirt. Her best friend Alyssa, who accompanied her is pretty drunk by the time James shows up. He offers to take Alyssa home and A few weeks later Ziah starts suspecting something happened between them. As if that wasn't bad enough, Ziah's older sister who was on a career track that had no room for boyfriends, announces that she is getting married. When she brings her fiance home and the two families have a get together at the girls' mother's restaurant, Ziah realizes her sister is going to marry Dylan's older brother, the other Gibson boy who swore off marriage forever. When Dylan and Ziah are roped into helping plan the wedding, they have a very interesting time learning first how to be civil, then how to confide in each other and be friends. As hard as each try to skirt their growing attraction to each other, neither can avoid the eventual kiss that scares Dylan and leaves Ziah completely confused. It takes a major crisis and emotional meltdown when Dylan's long-absent mother resurfaces for him to become broken enough to let Ziah in and start to heal. Granted there's some strong language here, but the story and the way the romance is developed more than compensate. Mature teens will savor the romantic tension and the torturous path these two take. less
