Overview
Some loves are meant to be. Others are awkward. Get ready for the second type in this "laugh-out-loud" (Bustle.com) romance about missed connections and trying to find--and keep--"The One." Written by a former real-life couple The summer before college, Hannah swears she's finally going to find The One. And for five perfect minutes, she does. She just wishes she'd caught his name. For Sam, the summer is off to a bad start. But after five minutes with some strange and hilarious girl, he's head over heels. With his luck, though, he'll never see her again, and he'll remain a girlfriendless, moony-eyed virgin. Forever. But another chance meeting brings them together, only to have a misunderstanding drive them apart. Madcap mishaps, raunchy hilarity, and deep romance follow these two wherever they go. For two people so clearly destined for each other, they sure have a hell of a lot of trouble even getting together.

Anika M. - 6 years 1 month agoI was so disappointed with this book. I just DNF-ed it after 2 days of reading it. This was meant to be something totally funny, a little raunchy, and a lot romantic and awkward. But I did not vibe with the writing style in this book. Neither in Sam's nor Hannah's chapters or POVs. But then again I don't truly vibe with contemporary British authors unless it's Natasha Preston crime fiction. But that's a hard maybe. The entire premise was just "how should you lose your virginity after being physically inactive for just about eighteen years and never having a decent relationship?" And you're probably like, okay, it's about the build-up - that's only the foundation. But no. I skimmed through the book and I ended up reading little snippets. There are so many dumb misunderstandings and the characters are literally TRYING to de-purify themselves to the most convenient people possible. Like, I'm sorry. I'm not sure that's how it works if you want it to be romantic? The characters, especially the side ones whom I usually like, were also just not it for me. They were kinda stupid and gross and I just didn't like the way the authors portrayed them. It just didn't work for me, so I can't truly rate this book but I would not recommend it to anyone if you don't like the whole premise of this book.
