This review was so hard to write, I like Higgins stories and her writing but this book was so hard to get into and so dry. There were good parts but it seems like the author was trying too hard to inject quirk and humor in. The book is over 400 pages long, by 200 pages I started speed reading. I stopped around 350 and started reading again. I prefer Higgins earlier books.

It was a very long story to find out what you already knew was going to happen.

Meet Posey, she is a petite thing who resembles a boy more than a girl. She was adopted by a German couple when she was a baby. They have an adopted son, who is perfection. High school was miserable because of her build but made better by the arrival of the bad boy. He only had eyes for the Golden Girl. After high school, they rode off into the sunset. 16 years later he is back, without the Golden Girl. Is this Poseys chance?
