Well, this was a disappointment to pick up.

Aviva is never going on a dating scene again. Her last few relationships have been a disaster and she's not about to marry a neglectant husband like her father was. Then, after being forced into a speed dating thing with her friends, she meets Jacob, a future lawyer in the making.

I'm sorry but I don't enjoy books with graphic sexual content. Why do we need to know all that? Seriously. And it was clear to me from the beginning that this relationship was all about sexual desire and not about the heart. These two people could not keep their hands off each other.

I don't recommend this book for anyone. I rate it for ages 18+ for graphic sexual content and mild language.

I did not love this story, I did find it kind of boring and not very exciting but what I did love about it and why I would recommend it is that it features a very unique couple. Aviva and Jacob are both Jewish and they talk a little about friday night dinners and their moms and I found that really unique in a romance.

Both meet at speeddating and hit it off and then keep running into each other. They date but the big issue is Aviva has a workaholic dad who is never there for her. Jacob is a a lawyer to be and she fears once he becomes a lawyer, he will be like her dad and work 100 hour weeks. That is the big issue between the two and I found it not really a big one.

That said, I did like the uniqueness of the story and that we don't see many jews finding romance and I found that interesting about the story.
