I did enjoy this book. Most of the time I just kept yelling at the characters to talk to each other instead of all the assumptions they made about each other.

***ARC received for an honest review***

An adorable, awkward, realistic about two socially-strained individuals falling in love.

(This was like an NA version of the Sarina Bowen I read earlier this week. Kinda weird coincidence.)

<b>"My social life's always been pretty dire. When I was at school there was the never-ending struggle to maintain an A grade average, and I'm so used to having my nose in a book it feels weird when I don't."</b>

Alice, an assistant at Harry's gaming company, is determined to make a move for Harry before she goes to college in 5 weeks. Harry is crushing on Alice - but worried about rocking the friendship boat. A catalyst brings them together - but their insecurities, issues with communication, lack of relationship experience and goofiness keep getting in their way.

<b>"I kneel before you, bereft of my Exitium shielding. And ask if you'll consider pleading your life with mine for all eternity."</b>

A cute read. If you love falling for your boss type then this one is for you. Alice does just that. Little does she know about how Harry feels. I love the banter between them. Both are a little bit broken in a way. Alice and Harry compliment each other perfectly. I mean how can you not love a hot guy with a brain. Cinderella and the Geek will have you giggling and sniffling just a little. A lovely read to curl up with on a rainy day.

I really enjoyed this book. It was very refreshing, different from what I have been reading. I loved these characters Harry and Alice. I really like this author, this isn't the first book I have read of hers. I always enjoy her book, I can't wait to see what she comes up with next.

Quick adorable read. If only Harry and Alice had actually talked to each other all the misunderstandings would have been avoided...but then the story wouldn't have been as good. I loved these two characters as well as the whole premise. I'm a bit of a geek myself and found the whole gaming environment of the story so fun and endearing. I would read more from Christina Phillips.

How cute! I want me a british boyfriend now. This was basically how most people dating feel. They never know what to title their relationship which is why communication is key. That's what this book taught me.
