Summary:

High school junior Charlie Blake has never seen anyone quite like Micah Jacobs in her small town of Grand Lakes. With his carefree spirit, rough-around-the-edges personality, and handsome grin, Charlie is transfixed.

But Charlie’s been burned before with her first crush, at the hands of an ex-friend and a cruel joke. Because of those scars, Charlie keeps her guard up when it comes to boys. But a class project – that may or may not involve kissing for the camera! – forces her to not only confront Micah, but her true feelings.

While prepping for the assignment, Charlie finds herself in Micah’s car accompanied by the music of Journey, Elvis, The Cars, and Peter Gabriel. Between slushies, burning rafts, pizza, and great music, Charlie and Micah bond as she learns the importance of letting go of the past and opening herself to new people.

When their project comes to an end, Charlie wonders if she should finally confess everything she’s been denying before she loses the chance. When words fail, will the songs in her heart be enough?

My Review:

I must say that I really enjoyed this book. It brought back many memories of when I was in high school.

Any who… this book is about a girl named Charlie she has been disappointed before when one of her best friends betrayed her trust when she had a crush on a guy. So, when a new boy named Micah comes to school and she seen him at the lunch table she is quick to deny her crush that she has. Later, in English class she must do a school project with him. I loved that they made a movie instead of an essay. I really enjoyed they way that their romance started. I kept saying to my self just kiss her already so many times and when they finally did I was so happy for Charlie. I did manage to read this book in just a few hours because I was just to enthralled with it that I didn’t want to put it down.

I must say that the play list for this book is amazing I thought that all the songs fit perfectly.

Contemporary YA romances I love reading and this is just another one to add to the list. Reading this book made me love Chantal’s writing style and I can’t wait to read her other books.

I received this book from the author for an exchange for an honest review.
