Super fun read, almost like watching an 80's teen movie in my mind! Jenny and Chance are not friends, but after a class where they are paired together they create this crazy backstory of how they have been BFF's forever. This unlikely duo forms a bond as their story and friendship grows, and they realize that sometimes the best friends you never really had are the ones you really needed to help you though those tough times in life. Well written and swoony, this was a good read and I look forward to more from the author!

I really enjoyed this book. It was a great high school love triangle. Where two friends have feeling for each other but don't tell each other. These two also have issues at home and are best friends. I loved their relationship and that they were always there for each other. It was fasted paced and I love it I read it throughout the night because I had to know what happened next. I would recommend it to anyone who loves YA books

I couldn't finish this book, sadly. The writing was underdeveloped, the characters were cliché and dull, in and nothing really even happened from what I read.

I fell in love with this book from the first chapters. Jenny and Chase are meant for each other and everyone can see it but them. I love the back and forth points of view. Worked well for this story!

DNF - had to stop about 30% into the book.

Chance takes a seat next to Jenny in class and they partner up to have a dialogue in front of the class about their summer. Chance tells Jenny to follow his lead and they end up making up dialogue about being friends since childhood.

OK I think to myself let's see where this goes.....unfortunately it didn't go very far.

Chance is good looking and popular while Jenny is a bookworm, quiet and shy. There was no chemistry between the characters. Not even sure why they liked each other.

The most annoying things were the little details. Jenny has a little sister who is 4 years old but sleeps all the time and only talks in one word sentences. Jenny's father left when her mother was pregnant with the now 4 year old but they haven't mowed their lawn since he left. After Chance and Jenny do their "made-up" dialogue in front of the class their classmates start remembering times when they saw the two of them together. Even Jenny's best friend believes in their made up friendship.

I found the little details too distracting to continue reading.

When Jenny & Chance create an elaborate lie to kick off the first class after summer, they are surprised at how easy it was to do that and how it feels like they have known each other forever. As the charade transforms into real friendship both Jenny & Chance are getting something more than friendship that they need; Chance is getting some much needed stability and Jenny is finally breaking free from her self imposed shell. When these feelings become more than friendly will Jenny & Chance be able to move forward without ruining their friendship? A fun read that had me rooting for these two til the very end!
