review 1: Hard to finish this book. "But she wasn't going to let him know how she felt about him just because he'd asked. That was way too simple. What did he think she was? A man?" Not the first sexist comment in this book. Do not like the characters anyhow. Farrah was very frustrating. Some funny conversations in the book at least. And a good backstories and side stories. But the story seemed to jump around, and I had a hard time keeping track of time.
review 2: This was a cute, quick read. I am not a big fan of running but do it to keep somewhat in shape. I have never found that place where you just zone out and find your groove. I'm generally gasping for every ounce of oxygen I can intake. Either way, I did enjoy the exercise playing such an important role i
... moren the book. Sometimes in the books I read, the lead female doesn't have anything but that lead guy to focus on. I appreciated that Farrah had this focus. And to admit out loud, it really did make me want to get my running shoes on and try to find that zone. I also really enjoyed the "family" that Farrah had selected since her biological family didn't live near her. The book showed just how much we depend on them as much as our own relatives. The friends were sarcastic and real. Well done Ms Gaston!And what can you say about Jude. I liked that he was natural while still being an alpha male. The major storyline for him of fitting in and finding where he wanted to be was enjoyable. We've all been there no matter if we want to deny it or not. I enjoyed that both Farrah and Jude were struggling with this. Jude's sister was a wonderful addition. I loved their relationship as it reminds me of the one I have with my younger brother. Having never had the pleasure of visiting New York, I loved the descriptions of the neighborhoods and environment. I didn't struggle to formulate an image of the surroundings while reading the story. There truly is beauty in realizing you are exactly where you want to be. This may not bring you the most money or prestige, but it brings something else entirely...peace of mind and happiness. This story completely hits on the fact that if you are not happy with yourself, you are never going to find happiness with someone else. The ending to this book wrapped it up wonderfully. I enjoyed what Jude came up with to get Farrah's attention. Made me smile. And who can complain about that? less

It's a good book just hard to get into. Took me longer than most. And I don't like the ending!
