 Now, normally, I hate books that flip between the past and the present, so when I saw that this book was written in the same format, I was a little skeptical. And while the flipping back and forth did get kind of distracting, it didn't really take away from the story at all. I liked the character of Ella. She's very no nonsense, but gets really embarrassed easily. She doesn't really like confrontations, so when she sees Matt for the first time since he disappeared on her, she starts getting clammy. The guy literally took off on her for a year, and now all of a sudden he's back with no word? Other than he's back now for good and oh, yeah, that Ella and him need to talk about things? At first, Ella doesn't want to go, but eventually she gives in and he tries to make it a little easier on her by making it like the first night they met - a night where they have to say yes, within reason.
