I absolutely loved this book! What a wonderful story! I thought Jess was a very likeable character. She is someone that I could imagine being a good friend or a sister. Jess's friends were a riot as well. I enjoyed the side story involving Jess's sister, Olivia.
A couple of interesting plot twists took me by surprise towards the end that I really enjoyed. I'm so glad this book grabbed my attention as I don't know how long I would have gone before picking it up. Highly recommended!

cute chick lit with a warm touch!
Awesome ending which is the best part about any romantic novel.
A quick-read, and a cute story about a girl who is simply trying to meet the man of her dreams. The story is a bit predictable, but it makes you still want to read to the end to know how she gets there. Its pretty well-written for a chick flick and only takes about 2 hours to read.
More than just your usual chick-lit. A bit of family drama, growing pains, discovering your true self and of course humor. Jess Monroe is set up by a friend on an Internet dating site as a birthday present. Trying to make the best of it Jess goes on many dates while dealing with the chaos that is life.
This was an easy-read, and entertaining. I'd say it felt a bit dated (even just six years later), since it's totally common for you to ask a couple how they met each other and they say "online," and no one really frowns on it (at least in my circles). I appreciated that this book was not strictly about romance, it had a bit more depth to it, as well, because of what happens with the main character's sister.
Was a great and quick read!
Plot totally lost in the middle and main character is missing the shine quality needed for this book to work.
A fast-read chick-lit book.
